Drill Baby Drill...the US Politics Thread (Part 2)

I was once asked by a BMW salesman if I wanted one. I said no, but woke up in the morning to find one in my driveway anyway and bill for it in the letter box.

These sorts of business practices should absolutely be shut down.

Did you tell the salesperson you were an active user of indicators?

Anyone who defends this is a monster

Even if you ignore the disregard for rule of law and due process and think this is the way immigrants need to be handled (which makes you a fascist), these are primary school aged kids.

They know what they are, and they’re fine with it. I know some are trying to still reason with them, more power to you… but there’s no discussion/debate to be had anymore.

In the Sam Seder vs 20 MAGAs debate, at one point he was talking to an ethno-nationalist and he said something along the lines of, “our worldviews are fundamentally different, we’ll never agree.” That’s where I’ve been at for a while with these.

It’s very disturbing. The US needs an organisation like ICE, but their mandate and method are both very disturbing. STASI-Lite.
It sort of reminds you of how the Russian internal security apparatus operates, within Russian law but yet (even publically) outside it, and when the media (Russian) reports of their excess, it does not lead to corrections or consequences. The media (Russian) instead get the function of deterrence and terror. Reporting about FSB exceeding mandate, operating putside the law, functions as building its image and instiling fear of the organisation.

Jefferson County was 62% for Trump. The families of the Sackets Harbor school voted for this. They just thought it would happen in Texas.

Considering his frienship with Epstein, knowing Trump is communicating with Fritzl should not be a surprise, yet somehow it is.

Tbf, Fritzl might be one of the few people on earth whose words I would trust even less than than the fat orange one.

It’s some Son of Sam-level nonsense about Trump giving him secret hand signals on TV. He has more holes in his brain than RFK Jr, Fritzl I mean, not Trump… although it’s a close contest.

I maintain (based on personal experience) that Texas is no better than a (archaic categorisation) third-world country

Walz does nothing for Dems. He talked a big talk, then completely wilted in the VP debate. It’s my opinion that had Kamala chosen Shapiro as her VP pick, she’d be president right now. Fight me.
