"But I came here for an argument!" -Monty Python. No, I TOTALLY get it. Sigle word responses like "Wrong" or "liars" really fucking piss me off. We need a better class of troll, ideally ones who understand punctuation, and are coherent. But if they were ACTUALLY coherent, they'd not be MAGAts

also, in keeping with Vance’s view of american identity, only white people are fully American with the right to critique or dissent. nonwhites must show proper gratitude (supporting Trump or marrying JD Vance) before they can speak critically of the country (in approved ways, of course)

I used to think as you did… but the last decade has proven to me that there is no peace possible. They WILL NOT let us live ( peacefully or otherwise ). MAGAtry must be eliminated, and if we must have tribunals and public executions to effectuate that I will take my turn tying the nooses.

Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed. There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea. Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.

Jesus fucking christ. The Trump administration tried to send a bunch of children to Guatemala at 3 am and justified it by saying that the kids just wanted to return to their parents in Guatemala, but the kids actually told the court that they are afraid of being sent back to Guatemala.

Tweet from Joshua J. Friedman:

Plaintiffs: No. Possible some children might be in that situation, but everything we could find on short notice is children not in this situation.

Judge: Mr. Ensign you saying that *all* these children have parents who are requesting their return to Guatemala?

DOJ: That's what I've been told

Tweet from Joshua J. Friedman:

Judge: During recess, I read provision you cited and then the complaint. Every one of 10 named plaintiffs says they are *afraid* of being sent back to Guatemala. (Reads aloud from declarations.) Doesn't line up with what govt is saying. This is why we have courts.

BREAKING — Dept. of Defense civilian employees all received an email a short while ago offering them the opportunity to support ICE and CBP “as they fulfill the President's intent to ensure a safe and orderly immigration system.” Full text of email and attached memo from Sec. Def. Pete Hegseth:

Subject: Department of Defense (DoD) Support to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) - Southern Border/Internal Immigration Enforcement Activities

FOR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES

Per the attached, the Secretary of Defense has authorized DoD civilian employees to participate in details to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to contribute to its operations along the Southern Border and its internal immigration enforcement activities.

Selected Department employees will have a chance to offer critical support to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) as they fulfill the President's intent to ensure a safe and orderly immigration system.

Applications for details will be accepted at https://www.usajobs.gov/job/842956200.

The process is as follows:
1. Apply at https://www.usajobs.gov/job/842956200.
2. DHS will review your application and documentation
3. Once you have been vetted, DHS will coordinate with the appointed representative from your organization to obtain the necessary approval for your detail
4. Once approval has been obtained, DHS will coordinate a start date and contact you about next steps if you have been immediately selected.
5. If qualified and not immediately selected, you will be kept in the applicant pool to fill additional needs as they arise

MEMORANDUM FOR SENIOR PENTAGON LEADERSHIP
COMMANDERS OF THE COMBATANT COMMANDS DEFENSE AGENCY AND DOD FIELD ACTIVITY DIRECTORS
SUBJECT: Detailing of Department of Defense Civilian Employees to Support the Department
of Homeland Security
In support of the President's priority of securing our borders, I am authorizing the detail of Department of Defense (DoD) civilian employees to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to support its operations at the United States southern border and with internal immigration enforcement.
Detail assignments may be either reimbursable or non-reimbursable. Non-reimbursable details are authorized where the expected benefit of a detail would be comparable to training or development programs that otherwise would be conducted at a DoD Component's expense.
When determining whether a detail may be non-reimbursable under the above standard,
DoD leaders should consider factors such as whether the tasks to be carried out by employees during the detail are of a similar nature to the tasks those employees execute in the course of their normal duties; whether the detail would otherwise enhance the skills and further develop the employees professionally: the duration of the contemplated detail for each employee, including the fact that the training and professional development value might diminish over time as the employee gains experience; and the impacts to the Department from the employee's absence.
DoD supervisors and civilian employees shall comply with DHS procedures for deployment detail assignments, as appropriate. The Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, in coordination with DHS, will provide further guidance.
Thank you for your continued support of the President's National Security priorities.

DPS evacuated the building, supposedly on the basis of a threat they received. They did this just after 7, right as the protest was scheduled to begin and they only evacuated visitors. The Democrats in the house chamber were still not allowed to leave and remained under armed guard.

These cards were distributed at daughter’s LAUSD school this morning for the first day of class. I think I’ll post this one on my office door.

You have constitutional rights:
• DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR if an immigration agent is knocking on the door.
• DO NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS from an immigration agent if they try to talk to you. You have the right to remain silent.
• DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING without first speaking to a lawyer. You have the right to speak with a lawyer.
• If you are outside of your home, ask the agent if you are free to leave and if they say yes, leave calmly.
• GIVE THIS CARD TO THE AGENT. If you are inside of your home, show the card through the window or slide it under the door.

I do not wish to speak with you, answer your questions, or sign or hand you any documents based on my 5th Amendment rights under the United States Constition.

I do not give you permission to enter my home based on my 4th Amendment rights under the United States Constitution unless you have a warrant to enter, signed by a judge or magistrate with my name on it that you slide under the door.

I do not give you permission to search any of my belongings based on my 4th Amendment rights.

I choose to exercise my constitutional rights.

These cards are available to citizens and noncitizens alike.
