The thing you absolutely must remember about the Trump admin is that THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS. They just don't have enough! They don't have enough to do mass deportations, they don't have enough to occupy cities, they certainly don't have enough to suppress regular dissent.
to all the people shitting themselves about Trump somehow magically launching a nation-wide crackdown on American dissenters tomorrow: please do keep this in mind
If this admin actually had any semblance of their shit together, or felt confident about asserting domestic force against mass dissent, they wouldn’t have withdrawn the National Guard from U.S. cities right BEFORE launching an illegal and wildly unpopular war.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up.
Your 70% number is just a fabrication.
And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024.
Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion.
American capitalism is off the rails.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

No reason to believe this was anything but the premeditated murder of four fisherman in international waters: a war crime.
Trump and his jackals destroy the evidence every time, and never release any intel, and have a history of committing and celebrating war crimes—so that must be the presumption.
