They want a nation without Huntr\x and this cannot fucking stand
JD Vance's ideal America is a place with half the GDP where everyone with potential and options gets the fuck out, a shithole that people from countries with actual dynamism visit to watch chintzy 'traditional' dances before going home.

Then play Jesse Welles's "join ICE" because it's the best protest song released since Arlo decided to sing about his Thanksgiving dinner.

Hegseth's grasp of military tactics is "Roman legionary commander of the week attacking Asterix and Obelix" level
this is an insane response for basically any shooter profile and motivation
WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump administration orders 500 more National Guard members to Washington after shooting, Hegseth says.

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

TFW you send your chancellor to fabricate a claim for a causus bellum, but he has a 6 in diplomacy and the "trusting" and "drunkard" traits so he comes back with this.

Giving Trump immunity guaranteed he'd always ask for forgiveness instead of permission to break the law. If he asks for permission, the courts might say no. But if he just does it, the worst the courts can do to him is make him undo it: there is no consequence to Trump for trying.

Multiple contemporary world leaders have this level of impunity: they're autocrats, some of whom broke their countries' democracies to obtain said impunity. What's unique about trump's situation is that he's unlikely to succeed in establishing autocracy, but we nonetheless gave him the impunity.
Never in modern times has a public figure been so brazenly guilty yet so mercifully immune from any and all public accountability.

Part of why I identify as nonzionist rather than antizionist is a desire to signal that I will never be on the side of people like this (while ofc still rejecting zionism as I understand it)
