You know what? You’re right. But it shouldn’t be. I’m wrong to assume that things are as they should be and that politicians’ families are not dodging consequences.

I’m not OP, but I’m guessing that they’re referring to the news story more than the law enforcement. I don’t think that this is newsworthy. Criminal charges happen all the time, but this one is only getting attention because his mommy is in Congress; I have no reason to believe that she’s involved in this crime in any way. I also didn’t give a shit about Hunter Biden’s drug addictions or gun crime or whatever else was going on with him. It would be newsworthy if these people weren’t charged because that would indicate that there are no consequences for family of politicians.

You’re 100% correct, but when the new way of doing things is to deny you your right to due process, then you will never get that day in front of a judge to argue that you were detained illegally. We have a police state that is kidnapping people and shipping them off to another country without their day in court, possibly in a prison for the rest of their lives. I would argue that the threat of that is no different than the cops threatening to shoot them; either way, they’re dead with no hope for justice. At least getting shot would be a relatively quick way to go.

If the secret police break down my door to kidnap me, somebody will be dying that day, and it’ll almost certainly be me, but hopefully also a couple of them as well. If I can’t save myself, I’d like to at least help to reduce the number of kidnappers, and hopefully deter others from carrying out their fuhrer’s orders for fear that it could happen to them too.

I think that the country is now at the point where it wouldn’t take much of a spark to blow the doors off this bitch. Of course the Epstein files thing matters, but it’s really heartbreaking that that’s what’s galvanizing the masses instead of when he started literally disappearing people to concentration camps.

Are you not enjoying your victory gin and victory cigarettes, comrade? And now that chocolate rations have increased from 30g to 20g, we have even more to celebrate.

If you kill him, you make a martyr of him. That also leads to president couch-fucker. Of course the world would be better off if he’d never been born, but we can’t do anything about that.

I’d rather he be painfully humiliated. Mutilate his genitals with garden shears in one of his oval office press conference tirades, live on TV. Added benefit of him never raping a child or writer or wife again.

She’s not his press secretary. It’s not your fault for thinking that though, given how much fucking time she spends in front of cameras defending trump. But that just helps you point even more. Why is half of this cabinet in the news dealing with scandals 24/7?

For the life of me, I can’t remember any cabinet member from this time last year except AG Garland and DOT secretary Buttigieg off the top of my head. I just looked it up and thought “oh yeah” when I saw Blinken and Yellen. I recognized Austin’s picture, but never would’ve been able to guess his name. I recognized nobody else.

Holy fuck, I miss having rational people in control. I was able to just deal with my own shit without worrying about total collapse. Fuck Biden and Harris for not taking the Israel concerns seriously enough, and fuck the people who withheld their vote over that to pave the way for what we have now. The options now seem to be basically either 1941 Germany or 476 Rome.

Didn’t he go on fox news and whine about how he and Patel have to work all day and they miss their families?

That’s fine. I’m worried about getting kidnapped by ice at customs on my way back in, so I’m not visiting anywhere for a bit. White US citizen born in NY btw, but that will hardly matter when they go after leftists or non trump voters or anybody who seems a little too “woke” for their liking.

“First they came for…” famously has several stanzas. None of us is safe from them.

They would do mental gymnastics to wave off dear leader fucking little girls, yes.

Would they forgive him for fucking little boys though?

So he lied? Can we just call a lie a lie? If not now, when?

Supporting the conservative party which seeks to undo progress and maintain the status quo as a form of “rebellion” is so goddamn typical of idiot kids. The elderly and young people agree on one general stance: “idk wtf you’re talking about and I absolutely don’t like it or want it.”

The shrink of our memories and attention spans will have been our undoing. It’s probably already over, and it’ll be another 50 years or so before people realize it. Idk if we can ever recover from all of this, so I’m just gonna drink and play video games between chores today instead of watching for current events.

It’s important to take breaks from the doom and gloom. We can take a day off from rearranging deck chairs once in a while. We owe it to ourselves.

Wanting Earth to have a future that includes humans is “woke”.
Earth will be fine. Half the species on Earth will not be fine.

Yeah, but trump will primary those who vote against it. Musk has nothing even remotely close to the level of loyal popularity that trump has. Redcaps would abandon every issue before they’d abandon trump. This threat from musk is pretty meaningless. If he actually wanted to move the needle, he’d spend his money on getting blue voters the resources they need to get to the polls or get mail-in ballots in those districts to flip the seat.
