I also think about how literally the same people holding up the signs at the convention also told the press that day they didn't believe it

Families in Dachau famously "didn't know" there were jews and undesirables in the work camp in the city being worked to death. "We thought it was just a normal prison" was a common sentiment of those particular liars.

Good time to start using alt text like disabled people are allowed to know the danger to our lives

Another who voted for him because they thought he was lying.

They know, understand, and support that he means it. They say “oh he doesn’t really mean it” to give themselves a cheap out by being “just as surprised as you are”

Ooops. 🤦‍♀️

Even though the exact thing happened his first term. Remember the 'bad hombres' claim? Shortly after he took office a woman, who voted for Trump, was upset her husband was deported. www.cnn.com/2017/04/05/u...

I'm sorry Helen, but your husband doesn't deserve pro bono legal help. You lost that right when you voted for Trump. Those attorneys should only work for those who voted against Trump. Trump told you exactly what he would do. You supported that. You can all go to Mexico and be together.

Where have we heard “we didn’t know” or “we didn’t think he would go that far” before?

Gee, Lauren, wrong again.

I’m not sure which is worse, the soulless, evil smile of the wheelchair bound woman holding the sign or Republican idiots (a double negative?) thinking it was just “bluster.” This person told everyone what he was going to do!

Plus being extremely christian…

Naive, gullible, and just plain damn mean

I think "mean" tops the list. Along with "bigoted."

You're 100% on that. Kinda like 'The Zone of Interest' thing.

Sigh. You’re not wrong.

i wish this woman a very merry

Why do we let these people vote, again?

Soon, a lot of women like her won't be able to. Like, tens of millions of them. Because, they'll go to renew their voter registration and discover the name on their birth certificate doesn't match the name on their old registration, because they had their MARRIED NAME on the registration! Whoops!

THIS! They thought they wanted a dictator on day 1 only, just to find out *there is NO SUCH THING*.

Not only does she vote, she’s a state elector for Alabama, casting one of their electoral college votes.

Because any measure to try and stop them from voting would inevitably also restrict people who don't deserve it, and would also likely be co-opted and abused by those in power.

All of this is to say: We won't defeat a political force that relies on voter disenfranchisement by trying to use their preferred weapon.

By "likely", I meant "definitely"

The only solution is to get everyone to vote So many people don't vote "I don't follow politics" is the biggest cop out ever The reason you can't buy a house is politics The reason you can't get healthcare is politics The reason they won't raise minimum wage is politics Politics effect you

🎯

It is being abused by those in power NOW. This is why we should give no quarter to fascists.

Not even! A dime!

Good question, but at least here we don’t have to let these people talk anymore.

Because, ironically, it’s un-American. Sucks being the ones who play by the rules, doesn’t it?

Because we are not MAGA. We recognize that as abhorrent as their methods, they are still protected under The Constitution.

Wait, she wants trump to only deport criminals and sex offenders ( sex offenders fall in the 'criminal' category so that is redundant)? That is trump. She wants to deport trump. Fucking dumbasses. Republicans are mean, narrow-minded dickheads.

To be fair Trump knows a lot of other criminals and sex offenders.

Private Bone Spurs' entire KKKook cabinet are criminals. Coup illegality aside, they all are guilty of rape, white-collar crimes, human trafficking, or puppy-killing.

So how's that belief going?

i wonder if Peña still feels the same now that he’s literally deporting anyone and everyon that is brown and black with few whites for the razzle dazzle

I highly doubt she cares.

well i can only hope 🥲 but you are probably 99% right.

So she thought a sex offender & criminal was only going to deport sex offenders & criminals? Did she think he didn't want more competition in his field of expertise? These people are soooo stupid.

oh wow love to followup

His voters made self-serving bargains that they could get lower prices with few harms. And some knew that people would be hurt and rationalized it anyway, as this NYT focus group voter said after Trump’s first week in office:

Republicans every damn time:

Damn, White people. Gettin us all f' up cause y'all "all f'd up!"

Reading through the article, this man seemed to be decent and have nuanced views, not a MAGA extremist. But when otherwise decent people accept these harms, we’re really screwed.

No such thing as "Fascist - adjacent," there just isn't.

They went after a seamstress today.

“He means the opposite of what he just directly told me he means!” DOES HE, Lauren?

Can’t fix stupid.

Well that explains her repulsive, racist sign. Yup, Alabama GOP, the armpit of MAGAt politics.

Probably descended from slave owners.

Wow!

GOP. Alabama. Says it all.

She was an elector in the 2024 election! I feel like this is Cirque du Soleil day on Bluesky. Does she have a trapeze?

Oh lord. I thought she just had dementia.

More like a wheelchairwoman amirite?

And she died yesterday (or tomorrow, there is a smudge on this calendar)

I could tell without you even telling me

she and Tuberville. Sad for Alabama

Why I avoid crossing the Mason-Dixon Line Just don’t go south

Is it too late to let them win the civil war so we don't have to drag them along with us?

She looks like shes close to the boneyard at least, the fucking scumbag.

Trump hates women

Has anyone followed up with the old white woman to find out why she supports concentration camps? I’ll bet she owns a cross necklace.

Mean ole privileged twunt

Oppressing women and brown people brings her joy.

Ah. Only the best of us.

She should have died due to Darwin theory

Who ever wrote this bull💩 it’s laughable.

Wow. She seems nice. This meme was made specially for her and her ilk.

She will go to the bad place.

Right, #WWJD ? Not this!!

I’d be she’s just awful in church too.

Yep. Probably a massive shit stirrer.

Exactly

She probably uses confessional to talk shit about the rest of the church.

She's a Baptist. They consider those stances like helping the poor or being kind to others to be dei

Please don’t reduce Blue Sky to Twitter.

Sorry, Renee.

Ich hoffe sie verliert die nächste Wahl.

Of course she is!

And also a fucking bitch, it turns out.

Evil ol' Bitch.

She's so proud of her malevolent ignorance-

And a bigot.

Now that un thar is some good ole white trash.

I lived in Chilton county, Clanton for years. My entire immediate family is from there and most still live there. They are definitely racist. Especially the old ones.

Truly 🤮🤮🤮

Has anyone called to ask her how she thinks it's going?

😢

Time for her to go

And she just got reelected.

About what I'd expect of Alabama

FKN Alabama.

No doubt a "devout" christian.

Chilton Cty.: Its name is in honor of William Parish Chilton, Sr. (1810–1871), a lawyer who became Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court and later represented Montgomery County in the Congress of the Confederate States of America.

can we call her "hot wheels"??

More like "hate wheels"

She and her brood need to be kicked out asap. She doesn't look American Indian! Bet her family wasn't given permission either to come here. How many Indian dialects does she speak? That is actually the native language of the land.

From Klanton? Checks out.

If you showed me this picture with no context at all I'd be able to tell you immediately that she's soulless and evil, aka a Republican.

Ya caint spell Clanton without the CLAN.

Ugly inside and out

I wondered who she was ... that photo disgusted me so much ever since I first saw it.

My step-grandmother lived in Alabama. I had to stay with her once when I was 12 for a couple of weeks. Nasty women, who told me, black people, you don't marry them and you don't go to church with them. This was 1979ish? I remember being shocked by her just saying that outloud. She was S. Baptist.

I never talked to her again. I moved to WA state, but still. Both my parents were fundie racists, but more quiet about it. When she died at 80, her church did this huge ceremony for her. Toxic people, kicked them out of my lives a long time ago. That woman, that photo, really bothered me.

Alabama...go figure.

The GOP Chairman, John Wahl, has twice been charged with voter fraud but our racist POS AG, Steve Marshall, refuses to prosecute because he's white & a repub. Laws only apply to all others & are weaponized. Who didn't see this coming? Everyone in red states knew because this is how we live everyday.

Did… did she swap heads with someone else

Imagine being her age, and that is what you care about. Imagine living that long and still having a hateful heart. For the life of me, I do not get some people.

This. A gazillion bazillion times.

We should all call her and ask her if she’s happy.

Whoever she is she’s a cunt.

Please don’t make Blue Sky look bad. You’ve reduced it to twitter.

I wonder if the name on her birth certificate matches the one on her driver’s license ….

That's the least surprising news possible

😱😱😱

How many times has she said the N word… today?

Probably like a morning workout routine, at least several times before breakfast.

If it’s not the N word specifically, I’m sure she’s called someone a boy and demeaned a woman

And soooo many DEI references.

innumerable farts escape her substantial cheeks as well

Well, I can’t really throw stones there. 🤣

Another credulous, deluded, craven, weak-minded rube with (more than likely) severely racist beliefs.

Zero surprise

Dam was hoping the bitch croaked

I told my daughter that until things calm down, I’m not going to visit her which is in the deep south. Why she ended up there, I’ll never know.

I am sorry for that. I hope she'll come up yo see you and you'll find other ways to stay close.

Yup, she and Trump needs to line up and be the first to get going then! “Two of the worst things I cannot stand are: sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity!” - Joe Maddison (The Black Eagle)
