Sir, please step this way. Your flight to El Salvador leaves from gate 88.

The brief era? It was over a decade of people stealing mouse balls! And once optical mice started showing up people would steal the entire mouse because they were new and cool!

That's exactly how he works. He's always pushing the boundaries of what he can get away with. He's done it his whole life.

But deporting and disappearing innocent people is exactly the test he wants. He even said today that "the homegrowns are next"

I don't think he's dead. Trump is using this as a test to see what he can get away with. If people let him do this, he knows he can deport and disappear anyone he wants. And he will.

I haven't seen a receipt printed with normal ink in decades. They're all thermal now.

If the courts back down or lose this battle Trump will start disappearing whoever he feels like.

This should terrify everyone in the now Fascist States of America (FSA).

That's exactly what this is. It's a trial run at disappearing innocent people to see what they can get away with.

This should terrify everyone.

Determining the reason no one replied to your Lemmy post.

This should be a picture of Nicole, the Fediverse chick.

I've played the first one. Is this much of an improvement? I know the visuals are completely different.

‘They’re draining resources’

... from their rich overlords.

That's what he means.

Exactly. He was wrongly deported, not mistakenly deported.

If you think things are bad now, then, brace yourself: it is about to get a whole lot worse. If you are alarmed at the speed with which the Trump administration has set about dismantling every institution of American government and every pillar of the international order, you must understand that this is not just the initial burst of activity, the “shock and awe” phase after which things will settle down: if anything, the pace will continue to accelerate.

The world has never before been faced with such a threat. The United States has handed the nuclear codes to a madman, a criminal, a would-be dictator and a moron, all in the same person. Whatever the purpose to which he directs these powers – to impress his dictator friends, to further enrich himself and his cronies, to seize absolute power or just to watch the world burn – we must hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
