    BREAKING NEWS! This Just In!

    “Republicans are shocked at any one at any time being detained indefinitely after intentionally empowering and assembling a large militant force who operates purely extrajudicially without due process. We’ve got Tom live on the scene to ask one of them about this development, Tom?”

    “Tell the camera what you just told me a moment ago, please.”

    “Well I don’t think that’s what due process means, they still go to see an immigration court, don’t they?”

    “No.”

    “Well, they should.”

    “Maybe you should vote for somebody who makes that happen.”

    “Like Donald Trump?”

    “Wrong again.”

    It’s pretty easy to get blindsided by things when you’ve got your head up your own arse.

      It amazes me that these articles keep appearing and the Democrats are unable to leverage this into votes. Writing these people as stupid is useless. We still have to win elections with a large population of stupid people.

        You cannot leverage this into votes. You regularly read “Trump killed my business/sent my spouse to Neverland/whatever, but I will vote for him again!”. Those people can’t be helped.

    “Stupid is as stupid does”. The failure of the US education system and rising social media bias are having a Darwinian effect

    this is like burning women at the stake and laughing that some spectators got hit by a hot ember. saying that he deserves it.

    they punishment that they deserve is nothing in comparison to what they get.

    and the pain they are recieving is inconsequential compared to the one they are causing

    My only joy in these times of the orange shit stain, is these magats getting pounded.

    It might be petty and small of me, but I don’t give a shit.

    You vote for Trump once… I can kind of excuse it as stupid… You vote for him twice and you’re just an evil fucker and I have zero sympathy left.

        Nah, at some point it’s malicious. It’s the “fuck your feelings” crowd, after all.

    I think in history there has never been a quicker demonstration of “if you support fascists they will eventually come for you too”. Dude has been in the office for couple months and is already rounding up his supporters lol

    I thought the threat was Iranian nuclear ICBMs, which they don’t have. Looks like the threat is inside the room.

    Gardner is seven months pregnant, but remains hopeful that her husband will be with her when she gives birth.

    “My heart is broken,” Gardner told the outlet. “Our baby shower is going to be next weekend, and he’s not going to be at home to go to that with me.”

    He’s missing the baby shower?? You should tell ICE, maybe they’ll release him.
