Yeah, it's hard to argue with that. Something tells me that this is how Alabama police treated black neighborhoods during the Civil Rights Movement.

@crazysaguaro.com , I was recently in AZ and I had a blast while in the Phoenix area. The picture is from within a van during the microburst in Tempe 🤣

For real. It was utterly shocking for me to come to the realization that our legal system has been predicated on the friggin' honor code the whole time. We need to work on our legal infrastructure, our Framework, as the crumbling walls (of the White House) have made clear.

Of course he did. What an asshole.

Let's just hope that investigations and trials are carried out over the next decade. We will obviously not see any justice until Trump is gone, but hopefully the memories of those that are in positions to adjudicate the matters remain clear---it's scary to imagine what has already been forgotten.

Indeed. I can't help but imagine that there's purpose behind this attack. Would it be wild to imagine that this behavior is endorsed by their immediate superiors? If the message was sent from the murkiest swamp, in which Trump resides, then you'd imagine that he'd want two things: revenge and fear.

Anything fElon says is likely a lie, so it's easy to dismiss the premise. But, you're absolutely right. That asshole enabled a bunch of whimpering, old supplicants to stall our forward momentum by pandering to the most base of their constituencies. Now, we have a hard time with truth of any kind.

Jesus... "I'll support him no matter what" is the last thing I want to hear from a representative of the body that would be responsible for holding him accountable.

Wait---are you saying that the guy *lied* to us?!

Most importantly, they'll need blood.

A couple of stupid and unscrupulous megalomaniacs.

Also, it "is truly predictable." I hate our current administration.

Yeah, seriously odd choice of words.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

A tweet by Sarah Longwell (@SarahLongwell25
) reads: "He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. Don’t you see what’s happening here?"

America is #1 (in school shootings)!

"Party of Law and Order" Ha! Maybe the TV show.

Seeing the lobster immediately made me think of Zoidberg clickety-clacking his claws together. Congrats!

Immigrants can be deported from the United States, while citizens cannot. Deportation is covered by immigration law, which does not apply to U.S. citizens.

Why Trump's idea of imprisoning U.S. citizens in El Salvador is likely illegal

President Donald Trump keeps talking about sending U.S. citizens who commit violent crimes to prison in El Salvador.

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal. He was found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud, found liable for sexual abuse. If he wants to find the rapists and criminals in this country, he should look in the mirror

Who would be responsible for the adjudication? Trump loyalists? I mean, this seems like "par" for the Trump administration.

That small segment of text hit pretty hard.

They'll find that they've been stepping on the caltrops that they've been tossing out in front of them. Unfortunately, they throw it far enough that they're not able to see them in advance.

Yeah... Trump and all the people who make his horrific vision of Duh-merica possible are real pieces of shit. Thank you for listening to my TedTalk.

I have almost finished his follow-up to this book... It's been a while since I've been so captivated by a piece of literature. Actually, I can say that it was the first time that I read "Sapiens," written by Yuval Noah Harari, was the last time.

Uptight Ape @uptightape.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

There's a town that sounds similar to this that Gladwell talks about in his book "The Revenge of the Tipping Point."

000

Yeah, man. They're a truly dreadful bunch. What I find to be impossibly difficult to understand is their callousness. I just don't understand being so cruel.

I'm hoping that they're like Mr. Meeseeks from "Rick and Morty" and that their demise is a relief to them.

I think that this is not cognitive dissonance. To me, that would imply some internal conflict. This is just another example of dishonesty; this type of hypocrisy is just a part of their operation.

000

I'll read that article in a bit. However, now more than ever, I feel that relying on the good nature of others isn't sustainable at the highest levels.

@radar69.bsky.social , of Harari's work, I've only read "Sapiens," but I've read it five times at this point. Great book!

000

😩 Yup. It's quite disheartening.

Right. It seems that we haven't recently enough had an adequate stress test, such as having a literal felon as the POTUS, to reveal where our system is most vulnerable.
