Is there a list of these countries?
Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, Antigua and Barbuda, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belarus, Belize, Bhutan, Bosnia, Brazil, Burma, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Colombia, Congo (Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo), Congo (Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo), Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Cuba, Dominica, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Fiji, Gambia, Georgia, Ghana, Grenada, Guatemala, Guinea, Haiti, Iran, Iraq, Jamaica, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, Morocco, Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, North Macedonia, Pakistan, Russia, Rwanda, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Tanzania, Thailand, Togo, Tunisia, Uganda, Uruguay, Uzbekistan and Yemen

Nigeria and Bangladesh being on this list is an ENORMOUS win btw
 
A DA refusing to prosecute a crime does not trigger double jeopardy. A mayor wanting to make a point could have the police re-arrest the offender and slow walk them through the process so the perp sits in holding and DA doesn't get a chance to let them back out onto the streets again. Over and over and over again, each time making a big deal about it in the press.
How does a mayor make the police arrest someone?
 
The Department of Homeland Security has issued a BOLO against Georgia comedian Ben Palmer for running a fake ICE tip line and recording the calls made to it. Ben's response was to post tours for upcoming shows.


I hope they wait till this idiot admits to doing so on stage then storm the place and slam him on the ground and into handcuffs.

Pakistan too. But somehow not India, for some fucking reason (silicon valley wants their cheap imported slaves).

Trump could add them to the list effortlessly I imagine, and then you'd get the hilarious followup of some Indians or even the Indian government itself suing the Trump admin to force them to open the list back up and allow infinity H-1Bs.

How does a mayor make the police arrest someone?
"Hey chief, do me a favor, they're about to let that asshole who stabbed that kid out without charges because the DA is a retarded nigger, can you have a few guys wait outside the courtroom and immediately re-arrest him? Take your time processing him this time."

But yeah, the idea being... The DA refusing to prosecute isn't the period end of sentence that we've all accepted it to be. You can just send the fucker back into jail, repeatedly, until either the DA relents or you generate enough press that the DA is replaced.
 
It's too bad that they do it, because the joke gets stale fast. And it's not necessarily just a Trump thing but everytime they did the format of dedicating entire seasons to one subject it became boring quickly

I miss when they just had single episodes dedicated to a topic and then went on.

It makes me believe at this point the only reason they do the Trump bad shtick is because the show is on life support with mostly TDS viewers to keep up the numbers, I wonder how it will fare after 2028 or when the next big bad thing takes focus.
 
Ivanka Trump targeted for assassination by IRGC terrorist in twisted plot to avenge president taking out his mentor: sourcesFirst Daughter Ivanka Trump was targeted for assassination by an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) trained terrorist in a twisted plot to avenge the president taking out his mentor, The Post has learned.
So, where did this alleged attack take place? In the Gulf of Tonkin?
 
Somebody with fatigue and American would be beneficial to clean up all this crime. That's just one step. I do not know if mayors are able to resign judges or DAs. That's where the real change starts.

The mayor also has control of the purse strings IIRC (though it probably varies by city). Nothing motivates a recalcitrant lawyer like threatening not to pay his fee.

I just find it eyebrow raising how many people are suddenly "AI experts" now, when it's basically only been theroy for decades, and now only able to be realized with modern hardware. Jeets really are going to ruin the next moon shot at this rate
Well, they're calling themselves "AI experts" but really they're almost all "LLM prompt writers," which sounds a lot less impressive. It's not a miraculous feat IMHO to be able to refine a written request to a computer repeatedly until it produces the desired output. There's certainly some innovation, yes (especially when it comes to gluing different clever agents together to do something more clever), but only when specifically constrained to a very particular context with well-defined tasks. The average jeet throwing prompts at SuperGrok trying to get it to show them the bobs and vagene of every girl whose photo they upload are not "experts" of any sort.

I'd take them a lot more seriously on the "fearless" and "never played it safe" bits if that supposed gumption was on display at literally any time during the Obama or Biden years.
It's such a bizarre flex. The United States government has never (to my knowledge) ever physically threatened to harm or kill an entertainer for the content of their writing (or shows once that became a thing). There is no "danger" of violent reprisal by this or any other administration for ... poking fun at officials. That and as someone else mentioned, the admin fucking memes straight back at them. Vance fucking loves his South Park persona. I don't think the administration "hates them" as they claim. These morons haven't been clever, funny, or "subversive" in decades.

Getting Jennifer Aniston to voice a dumbass hippie taking the South Park kids into the Costa Rican rainforest insisting on how beautiful and safe and precious it is, only to have her openly tell El Presidente and everyone else watching the subsequent broadcast "oh fuck the rainforest, I hope you burn this whole god damn thing to the ground!" was subversive and delightfully offensive back when they did it (nobody dared question Environmentalist Orthodoxy back then, under penalty of a stern talking-to by Al Gore). Having Wendy go full "yandere" on a substitute teacher voiced by Natasha Henstridge over jealousy about Stan, to the point she gets dragged off to the middle east by random ragheads only to be launched on a third-rate rocket directly into the sun was fucked up and crazy.

Painting the already moronic and overplayed Mr. Garrison orange and literally doing season after season of literal "Orange Man Bad™" is nothing more than copying Stephen fucking Colbert's main shtick, and that shit got old the first day he did it.

What are these pussies smoking? Nothing they're doing is "brave."

So stunning, much brave.
Beat me to it, but I'm proud of you. Never thought we'd have a good reason to dust off that old meme, but it still kicks. :story:
 
Trey Parker Admits “It’s Scarier” to Do ‘South Park’ in the Trump Era: “That Group Has a Military”
Then make one about Mohammed. Draw him. See which of those two ends up worse for you hacks.
Stone said the pair have always avoided playing it safe since South Park's 1997 premier
Nothing says loose cannon writers like doing the same joke every week that nobody actually gives a shit about. Doing the same thing week after week sure isn't playing it safe, for sure.
He went on to explain how he’s often told that he and partner Matt Stone are fearless for these days devoting so much of their animated comedy to mocking Donald Trump, which has created a ratings bonanza and reinvigorated the show while also angering the White House.
Parker shouted out his writing staff for being brave alongside them, “especially this year when we started saying like, ‘OK, so this is the show we’re going to do,’ and they’re like, ‘Oh, OK — that’s gonna really piss some people off.'” He noted that throughout the show’s three-decade run, “there’s always groups telling you what you can and can’t say; now that group has a military and so it is scarier. They have to be fearless.”
Why do these retards always posture and LARP revolutionary like they're doing this in some secret underground rebel base that's constantly being hunted down by government kill squads? I don't think the white house gives two shits.

I'm not aware of a mayor anywhere with arrest powers. The police would just laugh in their face. As they should.

God I hate this kind of breathless, dishonest reporting. Of course, this is the Grauniad we're talking about here, so that goes with the territory:

Those faggots at The Guardian dijo:
Palmer isn’t the first comedian targeted by the DHS under the Trump administration for satirizing immigration enforcement.
"Targeted" implies something more sinister than "oh hey btw if you spot this asshole gimme a heads-up, would 'ya?" It's like they want you to picture Trump sitting in a private bunker deep underneath the White House angrily scribbling notes to "his buddy" at DHS to "go get this asshole in particular."

They live in this bizarre parallel world where they're beaten to near-death just for coughing in Trump's direction (god how I wish they were) and they're a single word -- nay, a single breath -- away from being ordered executed by sharpshooters stationed on every rooftop looking for every brave warrior with the courage to say "Trump bad!"

It's so surprising they've forgotten so quickly what it looks like when an administration "targets" people it doesn't like. Like, say, the January 6th protesters. Yeah, the Biden admin really didn't like that lot very much. I think those folks might describe the government's "antics" towards them as somewhat "targeted," no?

Fuck me I wish we lived in the world they think we do. At least then there'd be more jobs -- there's a lot of faggots the Right Wing Death Squads™ need to line up against a lot of walls and we're falling well behind schedule at this point.

Then make one about Mohammed. Draw him. See which of those two ends up worse for you hacks.
To their credit, they did try that once, a few years into the show. Comedy Central refused to air the image, which was replaced by a protest message from Parker & Stone. That took balls back when they did it. It remains to date the only time Comedy Central actually censored the show. So they're pussies too. Just like Parker & Stone turned into (because naturally they haven't tried it again since they discovered their newfound "fuck world leaders" bravery):

Matt Stone: Hmmm… what if for this episode… We say Trump has a small weiner of course…. But that also hantavirus and Ebola… were caused by… Trumps small weiner?

Tray Parker: When will our retarded existence and misery end?
 
Pakistan too. But somehow not India, for some fucking reason (silicon valley wants their cheap imported slaves).
Well, to be honest. Pajeets are OK to work alongside as long as you have good ventilation and separate toilets for them.

Pakis, yeah, they are a different/lower breed of animal altogether.
 
Not gonna lie, former Trump voter here. This is fucking hilarious watching Trump crash and burn. But in all seriousness we can't let this guy get the nuclear codes.
I think we’re all “former” voters here since he can’t run again lol. I mostly did it because my family bullied me into it the first time. So I just grabbed one of those “I voted” stickers from the tables at polling places and took a selfie just to placate them.

I still believe in voting. Just not this “trust me bro” method of zero verification for voters. That’s why I support national voter ID, just like @Captain Syrup . But that man is an ARDENT, zealous advocate. So much so that he would make any political radical blush. Weather Underground at its height would take notes from his unshakable conviction in verifying election integrity.

I just realized your avatar is from Puppet Master. Not something I ever expected to see on the Farms, pretty based.
