Yeah, I don’t think that’s really in the realm of possibility. The entire free world would come down against him, and I don’t see the GOP being down for it either. Nah, he’s got lots of horrible stuff to do to us first.

On the other hand, got a room to rent? :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don’t think so either but talking about Canada like that is pretty fucked up. This conversation seems to be continuing starting from a few weeks back, which alarms me.

Man our house isn’t very big but maybe we have to grab a larger property with a few more rooms. Hehe.

Trump’s trying to bully Trudeau, but I think he’s smarter than Trump. You guys can fuck up our economy pretty quickly. If he hits Trump back hard, Trump will scream and run away.

But yeah, it’s fucked up. REALLY fucked up. But that’s our future.

I’m a lot like you - I’m dealing with the news on the periphery. I’ve checked out from being active. I’m a cis white guy in a red state, and I don’t have any children to fight for, and I doubt anyone is going to go after a retired white guy. You’re going riding, I’m getting more hobbies. I’ll be going to a number of festivals. Just recently went to the Texas Renaissance Festival, and had more fun than I had in years, so I’m even putting together garb for the fests next year. Planning a Musketeer and Pirate outfit already.

The Texas fest was great, in deep-red Texas, I loved that it was a safe space for gay and trans folks, who were able to be their true selves in a welcoming group of people. With the new board, being closed to the public, I’ll post photos from my travels. Call it fiddling while Rome burns.

But in the back of my mind, I think of the movie Cabaret, and the warnings it gave. This may well be how democracy dies.

Trump aims to end birthright citizenship, says American citizens with family here illegally may be deported

President-elect Donald Trump said in an interview with “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker that “you have no choice” but to deport everyone who is illegally in the U.S., including possibly removing the American citizen family members of those deported.

Trump also said he will move to end birthright citizenship — long enshrined in the 14th Amendment of the Constitution — which would strip rights from those born in the country to undocumented parents.

The right LOVES the Constitution. Except when they don't. I believe that most of them only believe in the 2nd Amendment - full stop.

Actually, they only believe in part of the Second Amendment. Either that or they think every bozo walking around with an assault rifle is a well ordered militia.

To amend the Constitution requires approval of three-fourths (38) of the states. republicans control about 28 states so they'd need 10 more states to approve the amendment and I don't see that happening any time soon. They could push state initiatives in non-republican states to go around the state legislatures/governors and have the voters decide but that too would take time.

Anyone who says they're not looking back when they left Facebook be glad you're done with it.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta donates $1M to Trump inauguration fund

Meta donated $1 million to the inauguration committee of President-elect Donald Trump, the company confirmed Thursday.

The donation comes weeks after chief executive Mark Zuckerberg, who previously banned Trump from Meta’s social platforms, visited his Mar-a-Lago resort as the tech giant seeks to mend fences with the political right.

Do we get a meaningful media movement now, or do we just keep chronicling a class war that we're losing? The choice is ours.

President-elect Trump says he will 'look at' pardon for New York City Mayor Eric Adams

NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- President-elect Donald Trump on Monday said in a far-ranging news conference that he would consider pardoning embattled New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who is facing federal fraud and corruption charges.

"Yeah I would," consider pardoning Adams, Trump told reporters at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, before saying that he was not familiar with the specifics of the charges Adam is facing.

Today CNBC was all on about what wonderful things the oligarchy will do for upside potential in the markets.

They got my reflexive press of the OFF button.

Man accused of attacking TV reporter, saying 'This is Trump's America now'

A Colorado man is facing possible bias-motivated charges for allegedly attacking a television news reporter after demanding to know whether he was a citizen, saying “This is Trump’s America now," according to court documents.

Patrick Thomas Egan, 39, was arrested Dec. 18 in Grand Junction, Colorado, after police say he followed KKCO/KJCT reporter Ja'Ronn Alex's vehicle for around 40 miles from the Delta area. Alex told police that he believed he had been followed and attacked because he is Pacific Islander.

Trump is planning 100 executive orders starting Day 1 on border, deportations and other priorities

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump is preparing more than 100 executive orders starting Day One of the new White House, in what amounts to a shock-and-awe campaign on border security, deportations and a rush of other policy priorities.

Trump told Republican senators about the onslaught ahead during a private meeting on Capitol Hill. Many of the actions are expected to launch on Inauguration Day, Jan. 20, when he takes office. Trump top adviser Stephen Miller outlined for the GOP senators the border security and immigration enforcement measures that are likely to launch soonest. Axios first reported on Trump and his team’s presentation.

Trump Reposts Meme Exploiting Los Angeles Fires for Self-Promotion

Trump reposted a meme on Truth Social Sunday that exploits the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles. The image, which depicts the Hollywood Hills ablaze, replaces the iconic "Hollywood" sign with the words "Trump Was Right."

Trump is using the devastating tragedy of the fires—an event that has forced thousands to evacuate and left communities reeling—to advance his own narrative and self-promotion. Instead of assisting and rallying around California’s battle with fires amid strong winds, Trump has used the crisis to attack his political opponents.

Ex-DNC member says she’s now raising money for Trump

An ex-Democratic National Committee official who helped finance President Biden and Vice President Harris’s White House campaigns says she’s now fundraising for President-elect Trump.

In an interview with The Daily Mail this week, Lindy Li, a former DNC official who raised money for high-profile Democrats, said that she is turning her attention to Republicans, aligning with the MAGA figures she tried to defeat as recently as November.
