It was funny watching all the conservative cucks dogpile on the comments section of the MSNBC youtube video that broke the story over the weekend, and every one of them was putting their ignorance of the constitution on full display - more proof that they don't actually understand anything about how government works and should not be taken seriously or given any kind of real power or authority.

Pope meets with JD Vance.

Says the Trump admin's immigration policy is a grave sin.

Refuses to elaborate.

Dies.

Piggies have a weak spot on their noses. Got it.

Can't prosecute Trump because he's immune. Blanket pardons for his subordinates who break the law on his behalf.

Yeah, this is a nothingburger. If Congress won't impeach and remove, it essentially means Trump is a king.

2020's aren't over yet pal, but I hope we both make it.

Also no kids for me. I got snipped precisely because it would be unconscionable and financially impossible for me to bring a child into the world as things are now.

It's just speculation, but they're saying it because nobody has ever been released from CECOT. It's not unlikely that they are just murdering the inmates and pocketing the money that the United States is giving them, or not sufficiently protecting inmates from violence between other inmates.

Zero evidence for any of that shit you said.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but you won't deliver.

Did you check under Krasnov?

Biden had the chance to do it and outright refused to place more restrictions on the executive.

I'm not a both-sides'er, but one thing that both parties will absolutely never do is limit their own power, even if it means limiting their opponents simultaneously.

The President and his cabinet are, as we speak, violating the constitution. The Senate is complicit. The House of Representatives is complicit. The Supreme Court is complicit. We are past the point where voting for either Democrat or Republican can meaningfully change anything. We can't vote to stop the assfucking that we're getting, we just get to vote for who gets to be on top while it happens. This downward spiral will continue until a revolution occurs or by some miracle a majority of Americans wake up and start voting for new political parties in numbers that could threaten to topple both establishment parties away and implement sweeping government reforms with a strong mandate. Obviously, the way things are going, revolution is far more likely.

The 90 day pause on tariffs is doing all the heavy lifting right now. We're going back into crisis mode in a few months.

Meanwhile, the stock market isn't the only indicator of economic health. Mass layoffs are still happening, prices aren't falling, inflation is still at risk to blow up again, consumer spending is down, and all the major banks are predicting a recession with better than coin flip odds.

We're absolutely not out of the woods yet.

I use Amazon to find the stuff and then Google the seller. They typically have the same product for sale at the same or similar price on an unaffiliated website. It takes extra effort but it's worth it if you are seriously trying to boycott Amazon.
