A democracy officially becomes a dictatorship when the executive starts disobeying the legislative branch.
The US is on the knife's edge, and starting to fall on the wrong side of history.
And the price of eggs still hasn't come down...
-
It is not on the knife edge. It has already begun the swift descent to horrible shit. The question here is if the courts will claw back a small piece of decency. My bet is no, but my hope is yes.
-
But wait, rednecks can beat brown people without repercussions right?
Becauae honestly, that's all that matters in the end.
-
I didn't say America was a real democracy. Everybody knows it's a plutocratic, gerontocratic, racist former slavers' republic that pretends to be a democracy - and everybody else around the world has been following suit for decades out of convenience.
What I said was that it will officially cease to be a democracy the minute Cheeto and his henchmen flat out refuse to obey the judges. Because lawlessness is the most basic, most easily recognizable, and most consensually recognized sign of a dictatorship.

...
Eggs.
Eggs.
Eggs.

Honestly I welcome the extermination. It might be better this way.

aaaahhhhh man

brazenly
Why is the press continuously using wording that makes this pig sound like an anti hero of some sorts?
Call him for what he is now, a dictator
-
I chose to infer its usage as "of a quality similar to a brazier." Because he's as dumb as a lamp.

-
I feel like people who are targeted by the ice gestapo and bystanders need to understand that this the kidnapping is likely a death sentence and respond accordingly.
-
If you’re about to be kidnapped and sent to your death, might as well attack your abductors.
You’re gonna die either way.
-
-
If you see ICE doing a kidnapping you can legally hit them with your car.
-
Send the Marshalls to arrest trump. Or lose all your beloved power, SJC.
-
You arrest the head of the DoJ. And any agents trying to protect him by the sheriff of whatever town they are in.
-
Then they accidentally fall down an elevator shaft on the way to county jail

Haven't you heard? Presidents are immune to the law. The Supreme Court said so. And since the DOJ is run by Trump sycophants any arrest order for someone in the administration will be ignored. Just like getting this guy from El Salvador will be.
The Supreme Court had a chance to rein in a possible second Trump term when they took the presidential immunity case and they fucked themselves for a couple dollars instead. Now we all reap the horrors they have sowed.
-
No need. Trump has immunity, but nobody else does. Lock them up in increasing numbers until they start obeying the law.
-
“It is my official act as president to not comply with court orders. This power was granted to me by the courts.”
🤔

You do not understand the GOP base (ie southerners).
It doesn't matter if their family is taken, tortured and killed.
The only thing that matters is that brown people know, beyond any doubt, that they are beneath the lowest inbred redneck.

Is it time to resist yet
-
Ummm, it’s well past time. www.fiftyfifty.one

The way i’m reading this - Trump is unable to do so because the US is now weak and feeble.
Clinton, Obama, Biden, maintained our geopolitical strength and would have exercised it.
(this ignores the fact that none of the prior presidents were nazis)
-
Nope, that's the nonsense argument the administration is trying to push in court right now, but they're lying like usual. The US could get this man back from El Salvador with a phone call but they're choosing not to do so, continuing a long tradition of giving nonwhite people crappier legal process and fewer substantive rights that goes back continuously through several presidents. It would be great if the US was weak and feeble and unable to do things like carry out the murder of our own citizens overseas via drone strike like we did in 2011 or provide an endless stream of weapons to Israel to support the genocide they've been carrying out since 2023, but unfortunately America still has one of the most lethal fighting forces in the world.
-
They were Nazis too, or at least Nazi adjacent. They were just smart and competent and playing the long game which would have landed us here in 20-50 years without any domestic resistance.
-
I'd say that 20-50 years is generous. Maybe if they'd won every election, but that's now how US politics goes. When one side stages a coup, and history shows they're going to win an election again within the next cycle or two, not throwing the leaders of the coup in Gitmo by January 21, 2021, at the latest, sure seems like enabling fascism.
-
You're...not smart.
-
seek therapy bro.
-
You are so completely wrong.
The dixiecrats? They LITERALLY inspired the nazis.
Hitler wrote about them as the model for a racially pure Germany in mein kampf.
The Nuremberg Laws are Jim crow with the name crossed out at the top.
Even the nazis weren't as cruel and evil as the dixiecrats, they wanted to remove people to gain their land and wealth. The dixiecrats used economics as an excuse, it was only ever about absolute cruelty and evil.
Black GIs came back from liberating Europe from nazis, to be tortured and lynched on trees.
The south is so far beyond evil it's incalculable.

Lock him up!
-
I don't understand this at all. This has been days and days and days. Why isn't there a plane in E.S. with people banging on the prison door to get this guy?
-
Because he is dead. They put him in gen pop 3 weeks ago.
The courts already knew about him and had previously refused to deport him because he was a target for gang violence.
-
Because the people who run those planes don't care what happens to non-white people
-
Because the entire republican base care very much what happens to non-white people, they need to be taught a lesson to never 'get uppity' in front of their betters again.
Betters in this case being the product of centuries of sibling rape, with a literacy rate on par with pre-school ers.
