I'd like to report some HOPE today, dear God. A video on Instagram showed neighbors with a bullhorn protecting other immigrant neighbors' from ICE. "Don't open you doors. They can put the warrant under the door or up against the window. It must be signed by a Federal Judge or it isn't valid." Over and over. Then they just told ICE to get out of the neighborhood. Not turning against each other is how we win !

This is good to know, in case I get the chance to do the same for a family. I worked with several undocumented ladies last November. My white Repub female boss told me when I couldnโ€™t stop crying about the election: โ€œI donโ€™t know why youโ€™re so upset. Itโ€™s not even going to affect you. (Iโ€™m also a white female of retirement age) Think of all the people who voted FOR him.โ€ (Yes, Terry, I think often of those people who decided to FAFO, like you, with glee). I quit soon after, even though that was my first instance of they donโ€™t care until it affects them, it absolutely sickened and disgusted me. I still worry every day about my friends, and their children who walk around daily with targets on their backs. And didnโ€™t have the choice I did, due to SS and retirement to just walk away. From another MAGA small business owner who through her selfish vote, thinking only of herself and her bottom line, totally disregarded everyone in her immediate orbit. Made them disposable. Elections have consequences, and since she is a food store, catering business, prepared foods in plastic and foil containers from China, I doubt she will survive long. Funny how through all of Covid lockdown, and โ€œBiden inflation,โ€ she never had to raise her prices. But, her own vote will likely put her out of business๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ oh, fucking, well. She had access to the same info that all of us who are saying FAFO, the leopards will need Ozempic, had!!!

Hegseth is not a real SecDef. He just plays one on TV.

And, a pretty shitty tv Sec def, at that๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ก. Unfortunately deaths caused on his watch will not be merely dramatic re-enactments.

In a million years, Rod Serling could never make this shit up........

Letโ€™s hope in 100 years Americans look back at this moment and celebrate how we stood up to tyranny!

Scott Bernstein's avatar

I was thinking four max.........and hopefully two if we can annihilate those sub-human fucks in the mid-terms.

Nancy's avatar

Oh, may it be so! :D

Even if we impeach the Orange Julius Caesar (and make it stick this time ["The first President ever impeached three times, and the first ever removed from office as a result! I DID THAT!!!!!! :D"]...), at least JD Vance isn't nearly so charismatic. ;-)

The problem is, he's probably even easier to manipulate... X-P

โ€œItโ€™s a Good Lifeโ€ (TZ, 1953)

Sorry, the story itโ€™s based on is 1953. The episode was later.

I knew we were all in trouble when I saw the way he raised his whiskey glass at the podium, pinky extended. Yikes.

When in doubt, pinky out! ๐Ÿ˜‰

I hate to think this way, every day since January 20 would be a great time to attack the US. Does anyone think we have competent leadership in case of a major attack?

Jan Frederick's avatar

A drunken, arrogant, no-experienced idiot up against high-level, integrity ladened leaders. I would say "no contest". I wonder how many more will jump ship before someone does something about this walking drunk. Thank you, God! Amen! Awomen! Ramen!

Why God why take Francis, Now?

He was inspirational and preached love. Love! Why?

God saw Francis with Vance forced in his face, and had mercy โ€ฆ

Well, I heard you know a guy that runs a swanky place down Hades way. Iโ€™m sure heโ€™ll save some white undies, a buzz cut and a bunk for Pete. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Hegsethโ€™s favorite movie is โ€œRed Dawnโ€โ€ฆ problem is heโ€™s on the wrong sideโ€ฆ he wonโ€™t be happy until we are living the plot of that movie irl.๐Ÿ˜– I agree he needs to goโ€ฆ straight to jail.

O Lord, verily, we are in the land of the FuckCrumpets.

Bronwyn Halls's avatar

The Rump has a minion โ€” Pete Hegseth โ€” with body and mind like drunk hogs' breath. A dim-witted fool and completely Rump's tool, this deep fake drags Forces to real death.

Iโ€™ve felt for a while that Trumpโ€™s cabinet choices seem to be as bad as possible. Nice to know you agree.

Nancy's avatar

Remember, he did that the First Time, only now, they're even more loyal to him personally. X-P

It was through the actions of other people and institutions (like, the ones Trumpty-Dumpty is going after most stridently) that he failed in his aims before...plus, he probably wanted to get re-elected (not liking prison) and so kept the crazy evil shenanigans to a minimum. X-P

Hi, Alek! :D

I'd add to that second to the last: The wound has to be lanced to be cleansed of pus. X-P
