So how is that candidate for peace working out?
I wonder if maga is pro-war now.
Here’s what Katie Miller is posting on Twitter.
They love war. They know the economy sucks and the president is unpopular - they are the type of people who believe the myth of the Nazi economy being good because of its war machine. They also want wars as an excuse to delay elections, at no point have they been subtle about this.

He's getting it next year.
Or else....
NONE OF THIS SHIT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF KAMALA HAD WON.
INACTION TO FASCISM IS COMPLACENCY TO FASCISM
Edit: Seeing all of these bitches coping and seething acting like Kamala would've gone on a global blitzkrieg.
You people are fucking pathetic. Your refusal to live in reality is the real reason the left never succeeds. Your lack of action puts Venezuelan blood on your hands too.
I wish America finally got a woman as president. Broader female representation in government and leadership lead to better outcomes globally, would make the world a better place.
Two words: "Margaret Thatcher"
The idea that a woman president is bound to be better just because of being a female is ridiculous.
von der Leyen, Merkel, Corina Machado, Taylor Greene...
I knew someone would say this lmao 😂 and you're right yeah

Please remove the cheeto from office. He did not win either popular vote. He is wreaking havoc because no one holds him accountable.
He did not win either popular vote.
He did get elected, whether you like him or not.
Why is he still in office is beyond me, maybe a magic lead encasing could solve that since he seems to be above the law.
Popular vote isn't electoral college vote.He did win the 2024 popular vote by 1.5%.
Eta: there has been evidence offered the last vote was rigged.
How are you gonna do that if a lot of Congress are actually bootlicking on the toupee weirdo?
Hmm, j6 people had an idea, given by the president, himself.
Fuck the USA
The USA pretends to be a democracy, but in fact it is a criminal, pirate state, they steal what they want, kill whom they want. Fortunately, Trump's coming to power marked the beginning of the collapse of that anti-human state. Americans of all political persuasions will continue to shout "thank you for your service" to every military person responsible for killing civilians and invading land belonging to others just for the opportunity to make money. Fuck USA.
My Dad was a helicopter pilot in the Army during the late 50s/early 60s, stationed in South Korea. He's gone now, so I can't ask for clarification, but he used to tell the story about flying the President of South Korea around just before his re-election. It was the night before the election, and they had been told they wouldn't have to fly until the next day, so they were free to hit the bar.
As they were relaxing, they got the call to get back to the airfield to fly the president back to the Capital. Normally that would have be highly against regulations to go from freshly drinking to flying, but a new poll showed the president about to lose the election, so they wanted him back in the Capital when they announced they were suspending the election because, to quote my Dad quoting his orders, "the country wasn't ready for democracy, yet."
America has been manipulating international geopolitics from the beginning.

So basically, every signatory to the Rome Statute could use these measures to arrest war criminals and genociders...if they wanted?
Is he still the non-interventionist candidate? /s
He's looking for that Nobel peace prize of 2026.
I mean, they already gave one to the person who is going to give Trump all Venezuela's oil.
It does seem to be a prize given by the oil industry at this point, and has been for decades.
It's an american led coup.
Not even the first in south America but absolutely the most blatant.
Edit: "Negotiated exit" could mean a few things but it probably means they had him and his family and said 'come with us or we go to our alternative orders'
To be clear Maduro is an ass but what the USA has done is internationally intolerable and is the kidnapping of a foreign head of state.

This is it, if the western world and the US congress does not respond appropriately this shows Trump he can do whatever he wants. Greenland will be next, nothing will happen either. This is what the Nazis did as well, fuck around and see what happens. And nothing happened for quite a bit until it was nearly to late.
Trump has apparently been consistently 'asking' Sheinbaum (sp?) to let him take out all the cartels in Mexico.
So uh, Mexican American War, Round 2, very much looks to be on the table.
Somewhat ironically, Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex called that one, part of at least one version of half of Section 9's member's backstories is that they were mercs fighting in that war.
Is there a running list somewhere of all the illegal things he's done so far?
"Support the troops" and "Thank you for your service" is cringe af. Like you do know what the troops are doing, right? I can't remember a time they defended their country. It's all invasions and coups for their capitalist masters who deny you if you are the wrong color or poor. Which is most of the people. The whole system must change. I say remove US and israel from world market until the new generations show some respect.
Jesus Christ. America, your new war started January 3rd 2026. The world will remember this day.
I certainly hope the rest of the world is paying attention this time.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
