I've been saying since the election that anyone who voted for Trump or abstained in protest is complicit in Trump's regime of terror. Trump and his staff spent months on the campaign trail telling the public exactly what they would do when they took power, showing everyone exactly who they are, and now they're doing all of it. No one has the luxury of claiming ignorance.

I'm so sick of "warnings" and "caution". This is actually illegal. The regime is actively dismantling the government. What do these officials expect us to take away from their irresponsibly vague warnings? What is it they expect us to do? Civil unrest is the only option I see left on the table, but it's their job to make sure it doesn't come to that.

The movie Office Space taught us many years ago how to deal with a problematic piece of technology. I recommend the workers take note.

Given how Trump openly spoke about them while campaigning and outright saying he would deport them, I really don't know what they expected and I have little sympathy. They enabled the nazis, now they suffer the consequences along with the rest of us.

It’s such a no brainer

That right there is precisely the point. Lead damages brain function. Their constituents not having functional brains is exactly what keeps them in power.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding this, but I grew up in cental NC and this is only partially true. If you were going to the coast, yeah you'd say "I'm going to the beach", then probably specify which beach. But, if you were just referring to any other place farther inland, you would most likely use it's actual name because there are a lot of cities and small towns in relatively close proximity, so you'd have a lot of ambiguity otherwise.

Agreed, this is the kind of hot garbage I need right now.

Since 2016, I've had people telling me he won't do some of the worst stuff he talks about because congress would never let him. And then he does, and they do. I'm convinced that moving the goal post is the only way some people can cope.

Could also be the worm eating his brain.

He's clearly trying to make himself seem more appealing to the orange man in DC.

At this rate, it won't be long before their final solution includes LGBT people.

He could have just as easily not done anything and gone home. None of what he did makes any sense.
