For those of us at home, Project 2025 describes invoking the Insurrection Act to deputize the National Guard of red states and using them to enforce immigration law in blue states.
Soldiers, kicking in doors looking for illegal immigrants, in a dire conflict of Federal vs State authority that hasnt been seen since desegregation. I wish Harris brought this up.
The US being the bad guys in the Korean conflict is an interesting take that I wouldn’t expect anyone outside of lemmygrad to espouse, care to elaborate?
One, it does give some room to dismiss accusations, even if just rhetorically.
Two, when you are able to coerce your subjects to say the sky is green, the sun sets in the East, and Dear Leader won the election, its an exercise of power over them. It feeds the ego and it becomes a litmus test for the disloyal.
Ignoring that sexist trash in the beginning, AIPAC doesn’t just reward compliant behavior from politicians, they also use the same vast resources to relentlessly punish dissent on their pet issues. Being an anti-Israel candidate is suicide with them around. They are a hundred pound weight on the scales of our political machine.
It probably was fake. I’d imagine the people who are selected for these assignments are borderline or complete sociopaths who don’t have problems putting their mission above their entanglements.
If these kids are old enough to have any sense they aught to flee the first chance they get.
Conservatives believe that childless people, but childless women in particular, are shirking their moral duties as good citizens and good children of God. They are therefore of lesser value in the social hierarchy.
Factories need their servants, armies need their fodder. And don’t forget about reversing the Great Replacement…
These days, look for any family in America with 5 or more minor children and find a “devout Christian” as the patriarch.
Mormons are famous for this, and they support their breeder mentality by tapping into the same government resources they say they despise, sometimes venturing into fraud.
Reading the article he also said that parents should be able to cast votes on behalf of their minor children, which is much more alarming to me.
You might get off easier than the colored or mixed person in the equation, but you certainly wouldn’t be okay as a race-traitor.
No way would USSS be able to get his fat ass to wear a vest consistently, let alone the plates needed to stop a rifle round. In this heat?
Though I’m sure now he may reconsider, or be forced to.
The DNC is controlled opposition for the owner class. They exist to attract and squash any substantial change to our current system, and to give you hope that such change is still possible so long as you stay civil and play by the rules.
What would you be doing right now if every single person in government behaved like Republicans?
Are you aware that you won’t be able to wear a furry tiger costume when you’re getting pounded in the ass in the federal prison I put you in next year?” Howell asked.
Part of me wants to laugh at the seething impotence…but he not only thinks Trump will win, but that he himself will get arrest powers in a Trump regime and will be able to wield it against his enemies.
Please vote…and prepare for the worst from these fucking freaks.
Wtf I love Trump now!?
His failure to meaningfully divest from his business interests coupled with the numerous times he used his office to funnel money to himself such as forcing the Secret Service to stay at Trump properties as he traveled.
There, one.
As an American I think that would all be reasonable…if the official US position was that Mexico has no right to exist, the Mexican people should be forcibly integrated into our society as 2nd class citizens, and the US Army was in the process of a “peacekeeping operation” in Mexico to carry all this out.
For all our flaws, we respect the borders of our neighbors and don’t have irridentist aspirations that belong in the 19th century. Russia is the aggressor here, and they have demonstrated that they have little interest in global peace or human rights, only increasing their sphere of influence.
Continually rolling over for thugs because it’s what avoids nuclear conflict will only lead to a global order based on thuggery, and it likely won’t even avoid nuclear conflict in the end.
And conservative voters see any measure to tackle this issue, no matter how benign, as “weak liberal nonsense” and “a waste of time” that cheapens our fighting ability. Of course I’m sure their hearts are set on what’s best for our military, and not that they’re sexist, racist abusers who don’t want their sexist, racist abuse to be challenged.
This issue goes back at least as far as living memory for the US. We were particularly vicious to German women at the end of WWII. GI’s having illegitimate children with local women in Asia during our multiple wars there was so common it’s basically a trope.
I think it’s somewhat arrogant to assume that the state violence apparatus is wholly on our side on this one.
The military will likely fracture like everything else in such a scenario. I imagine desertion, theft of equipment, and sabotage would all be huge problems until things more neatly sort themselves into “us” and “them.”
Specifically, they are implied with the whole “call up the National Guard under the Insurrection Act and send them out to kick doors in looking for illegals, especially in liberal strongholds.” I am sure they will act strictly under the color of the law and adhere only to these reasonable, publicly stated goals.
On an unrelated note, TM 31-210 is an informative, engaging, and entertaining coffee table read, if anyone is looking for that sort of thing.
Or they just keep quiet and lie and do whatever they want. Hard to prove guilt in the sticks if there isn’t a game warden nearby.
Here’s an anecdote from an American outdoors industry leader where he admits he doesn’t give a shit about conservation laws and admits to seeking out and killing at least one bear, against the advice of fish and wildlife, because he deemed it to be dangerous. https://www.buffalobore.com/index.php?l=product_list&c=108
