Additionally,

“This comes as House Republicans have proposed a bill that would charge people arriving at a U.S. port of entry $1,000 in order to file an asylum claim — and a $3,500 fee for those sponsoring children. The right to seek asylum is a fundamental human right enshrined in international law, and the U.S. has never before charged petitioners.”

This is enough grounds for impeachment.

I have some gloves-off shit I need to get off my mind and I feel the time and place for it is now because I’m very angry:

So… non voters, remember when we were telling everyone that would listen to “vote blue no matter who? Remember that? Of course you do- you threw that shit back at us like it was a god damned grenade. Remember that? 

Yeah, well…. THIS is why we were saying that. 

You see, we all saw this shit coming. Which is why we were saying to plug your fucking noses and just vote. Hell.., We even tried to reason with you- suggesting that- 

“You’re not voting FOR Harris, you’re voting AGAINST fascism!”

You didn’t listen. 

Your “…but, they’re doing a genocide!” was so deeply embedded via your little edgelord wind-tunnels, that most of you began to see it as an argument to win, instead of a point to be made-

Instead of doing anything substantial to help end it.

Well. Your point was definitely made. We all have heard you loud and clear. You collectively and VERY loudly agreed that you would be fine with the outcome either way- since genocide was going to be happening no matter who you voted for, right?

I do have to ask though… 

Are you still fine with your choice? How about the memory of you, sitting on your asses and laughing at all the people rushing to voting booths in-between work and picking their kids up from daycare… How is that sitting with you? All those jokes and inflammatory remarks you hurled at the people who tried their fucking best to stop this with the only thing they have- their vote. The people, who tried to protect your sorry asses that couldn’t be bothered to even do the BARE FUCKING MINIMUM asked to protect our democracy. 

I ask you… are those jokes still funny? 

Is there any chance that any of you want to walk back all those accusations you made about everyone being sheep? What about those smug and arrogant jabs about how both sides are the same? About how democrats and republicans are somehow working together… 

care to issue a statement here? 

Because I’m pretty damned certain that NONE of this shit would be happening right now if you had listened to us when we told you that this was going to happen.

When HE fucking told you this would happen.  

And while very few people here were ever in favor of the genocide in Palestine- much to the disagreement of the few that are around that are STILL arguing against this point- we knew and know- that the pain we face at home must be resolved before we can be of any aid in the pain endured by others in theirs… Especially when most of you couldn’t have even pointed to any of those homes on a map a year ago and a half ago.

It should be noted that this is not in any way to lay the entirety of blame at the feet of the stay-at-home/its-someone-else’s-problem protestors, but the numbers are in, and while your combined lack of effort might not make up the entirety of the ninety one million registered voters that stayed home, it’s a fair guess that between you and the ones that voted third party- 

We could have avoided this.  

Roughly four to five million votes. That’s all we needed. Just four to five million of you to have listened. But your arrogance, your fucking entitlement- wouldn’t let this happen. 

So now here we are. With this shit. This tyrant king and his pet tech-gremlin, stripping away our rights hour by hour, day by day. And while dealing with this shit, I as an American, have to carry on hour by hour, day by day- being tossed into the same bucked with you. 

I have to shoulder the blame right along side you. And it’s not fucking fair. I did my part. I voted. I canvased, I shouted from the fucking rooftops. 

But I’ll digress…

I sincerely hope that high road you thought you were taking lands you all right to where it seems the rest of us are going…. 

Because no one deserves it more.

A second order further militarizes local police departments, while providing legal resources to officers accused of abuses; it also seeks to undo federal consent decrees for departments that have committed civil rights abuses and seeks to punish local officials who “unlawfully prohibit law enforcement officers from carrying out duties.”

That’s not militarization, it’s promoting lawlessness and removing any remaining accountability.

Have the Americans, (Canadians, Australians) not been educated about history? WWII? Your grandfathers fought and died in the trenches in WWII to save you from fascism. THEY FOUGHT AND DIED. WTF??

A third executive order requires professional truck drivers to be proficient in English.

Higher requirements than the office of president.

Welcome to the police state, y'all

The governors have to allow it. The federal government cannot mobilize the military in a state unless the governor of that state allows it. Posse Comitatus, if Trump attempts to send in the military against the governors wishes, we are talking civil war levels of federal vs state's rights. I hope state militias are ready to defend themselves.

And the police, like the little lapdogs they are, will happily stomp on people’s rights for a chance to cosplay war

Militarize the police

It wasn't yet? US police has fucking tanks and mraps, it is already militarized, just without the training and restraint

I am going to short on my American stocks for the next four years. Trump won't want to step down at the end of his term and when that happens, there will be chaos.

not a person of color to be seen for miles and miles of this fucking picture. until later when these pale pink fucks are turned loose against anyone not them.

easily led shit bird white christian dog shit eating idiots allowed this while swearing they'd never allow it to happen.

I have a buddy who told me this was awesome. This same buddy dog walked Clinton's crime bill from sea to shining sea back in the 90s. Are they stupid or is it me? Anyway I pointed out the similarities and he got mad at me.

Holy fucking shit... 1000$ for an asylum claim? And 3500$ for children. This is monstrous. I am an immigrant and naturalized citizen to Canada and I never had to pay that much legal fees for immigration and citizenship.

I saw the picture and thought "Blazing Saddles"! Now I'm even sadder that I live in a farce country.

Absolutely disgraceful. Y'all are cooked.

Building a corrupt police state one EO at a time.

If you don't have a gun, it's time to get one and learn how to use it.

...also how to carry safely. Don't be that guy.

I thought for a moment he invited the village people to the White House….

Put it this way. If some good ole boys show up in my neighborhood. The Nortenos will probably deal with them before they even get set up.
