I think there's a whole buncha people who never were taught what happens when dictators take power.

These are all from the 20th C.

“This building was built for peace and no one knew what to name it”

🙄 Nobody had any what to name it until Trump came along. In fact the US Institute for Peace was established in 1984. A dedicated building for the USIP was built in 2011. Trump took over the building for his own purposes last year.

Five minutes into opening his "Board of Peace", Trump is talking about how he likes receiving "extra cash".

Trump: Last time I went to China, President Xi, he treated me so well. He gave me a display. I never saw so many soldiers all the same height. You could have played pool on the top of their heads

Trump has issued an executive order invoking the Defense Production Act of 1950, a law that allows a president to direct and prioritize industrial production in the name of national defense.

And remember, Donald Trump is one of, if not THE primary customer (i.e., fellow conspirator) mentioned in these emails and visible in photos and video:

The current U.S. president is very clearly a rapist and child sex trafficker.

So - why is "sanctuary" used in the terminology. It harkens to church sanctuary.

Reformers have to stop using radical, evocative terminology ("defund", etc.) It communicates - doh! - radicalism.

Every maga voter I know thinks sanctuary cities just let immigrants walk free regardless of their crime. Politicians work hard to perpetuate this misconception/lie.

Not a conspiracy theory. There are reports that DHS wants to subpoena big tech companies for their user data to identify individuals with anti-ICE sentiment.

I don’t think these permanent detention centers are not for the immigrants they’re already trying to kick out.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't project2025 say to arrest large portions of the population who dissent?

The whole "martial law" thing... These detention centers are built to house Black people and dissenters of the tyrant

This is my Conspiracy Theory.

In this thread, I lay out more than a dozen facts about Trump and his child-molester friends Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
I challenge you to read the whole thread and then decide what the odds are that Trump did not abuse girls or tolerate his pals Epstein and Maxwell doing so.

Re-upping this thread from last year as Trump and his soulless lackey Pam Bondi keep trying to cover up the Epstein files. The evidence of Trump's predatory behavior that's presented in this thread is overwhelming.

30. The aligned interests of the Republicans and the billionaire owners of news media corporations is also why, no matter how loudly or how strenuously Democrats accuse Trump of implementing “the largest peacetime tax hike in US history,” the allegation rarely breaks through.
As proposed, Trump’s tariffs are a historic tax increase
