I don’t think anyone understands that if he ousts Powell/gets his interest rate lowered, we’re looking at a depression or worse.
Um, I think everyone except his hardcore followers understands that.

Protesting can work, boycotts can work, and so on. Don’t let anyone think we can’t act because we the people can
Yes! If they didn’t work, we wouldn’t have such coordinated negative messaging about how they DON’T work and are a waste of time. If conservatives didn’t think boycotts and protests were effective they wouldn’t be working so hard to make them illegal.
The current right wing definition of antisemitism as anything other than fullthroated support for Netanyahu and his policies serves two purposes. It’s a tool for shouting down all opposition to a fellow authoritarian, and it makes it harder to call out actual antisemitism, which they are fine with.
If all White House communications go through Starlink, Musk has access to all of it, to use as he sees fit. Blackmail, enriching himself, selling to the highest bidder. Great move for him financially.
Sadly, for the most part, the rest of us reap what he sowed. He’ll be fine.
Well, sure, but before they render a decision, Trump can just have them killed, which at this moment is totally cool and legal, according to them. He can also have all of congress killed, which sort of blunts the possibility of impeachment, which as of right now is the only way to punish him in any way, according to SCOTUS.
The fact that Donald Trump a) was allowed to run for president despite being disqualified by the 14th amendment and b) is not in prison shows that justice does in fact play favorites.
You really haven’t been paying attention to the news lately.
The Supreme Court must be so proud.
Nope. Even off of consulate grounds, diplomatic immunity holds. It wouldn’t be worth much if you were trapped in the embassy.
You can if you have a pet Supreme Court.
Yes, if they arent’ subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, you can’t touch them.
It’s obvious to anybody not deliberately misreading the text that this is meant to apply to people like foreign diplomats, who really are not subject to the jurisdiction of the US. But then deliberately misreading the text is the specialty of the Roberts court, so who knows what they’d decide. Whatever some billionaires pays them to decide, I guess.
The idea that any meda outlet will even mention that children and hardworking families are being rounded up is adorable. The billionaires bought all the networks and newspapers for a reason - so that there’d be no way to embarrass the Great and Powerful Trump.
In a recent interview, he admitted he could not restore grocery prices to 2019 levels without a recession
His tariffs will bring that recession pretty quickly, so he may accidentally fulfill his promise.
Remember, solving any problem while not solving every problem is a complete waste of time and it’s better to do nothing.
He’s not actually president yet, but it seems everybody has just decided to pretend he is. Biden still has the power to call a drone strike and take out Trump with absolutely no legal repercussions for another month, as per the Supreme Court.
Wouldn’t it be funny if the government shut down so completely that congress couldn’t actually convene to certify the election? That would be fun turnabout.
“RFK Jr: an iconoclast set to shake up a complacent public health establishment.”
The Republicans who could and should hold him to account (senators, representatives, and Supreme Court justices) are too afraid of his rabid base to do anything. If they oppose him, Trump will start raging on truth social that they are communist America haters that need to be “dealt with”. Stochastic terrorism is a real thing, and these people are cowards.
The oligarchs that put him in power thought they were smart enough to control him. I think they are just now realizing that they can’t, and they are freaking out.
