The president emblazoning his name on the ICE cars suggests 1) that ICE is intended to be a personal, partisan police force, and that 2) he does not intend to leave office in a mere three years. What *other* conclusion could you draw from it?

"Put your name and face on everything" is one common theme. In the past decade, dictators have forged transnational bonds, sharing methods, copying tactics and learning from one another. Somebody's been taking notes.

Everyone needs to wake tf up. There’s not going to be any election or if there is one trump will win with 110% of the vote. Republicans are all in. Red states are building concentration camps. Military and police on the streets kidnapping people. Democrats are stupidly doing 1990 politics.

It is oddly ironic that not only would the revolution be televised but that the revolution would in part rely on the American people sitting comatose on their fat arses watching and listening to a cacophony of bullshit as their democracy was simply taken way.

If Democrats ever regain control of the federal government, ICE must be dismantled. The billions slated for it should go to local public safety—fire, EMS, police—and services that address homelessness, including housing and mental health.

Nazi Germany’s Gestapo didn’t just enforce laws—they enforced terror: surveillance, arrests, torture. Political opponents, minorities, anyone deemed ‘undesirable’. ICE is MAGA’s modern-day Gestapo.

The GOP will never willingly accept defeat and give up power. The noise around mail-in voting is just the beginning of the process of discrediting the midterms before they happen, so after they get their asses handed to them, the GOP has a pretext to refuse to certify the election.

It doesn’t matter that he thinks he won’t leave office. His fat ankles tell a different story. He has no value for life. Not even his own. He looks old and ugly like a beached wale. He carries his sin because he can’t let go of it. There won’t be four more years no matter what he puts on his hats.
