I think we all need to make wagers about how long each oligarch is left standing in Trump’s America. As Xi and Putin have theirs disappear in mysterious suicides or accidents (and take over their wealth), we must ask WHEN Trump does this! Musk is now annoying, I give him 60 days after the election.

DON’T LOOK AWAY: Children seen shackled and escorted by federal agents out of a downtown Los Angeles detention center.
Multiple minors. In chains. In public. This is not a “border issue”—this is a fucking human rights crisis.

Within every Conservative is the bone-deep conviction that there should only be two classes: the rulers and the ruled.
How each Conservative clique arrives there differs, but the destination is always the same.
