    Imagine Trump voters reading this EXACT headline during Biden’s presidency. They would have lost their minds. They wouldn’t take a vaccine because they thought there was a 5g chip in it, but this is ok?

      I was raised by republicans so I can provide some insight. Its because they would have to admit they were wrong about Trump. You can either admit you were wrong and declare him a tyrant or you can back him on everything. You can guess which most of them choose.

        “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”

      These are the same asshats that are just fine with Taco invading blue cities and threatening more. Including the use of Marines, FFS. And he’s threatening a lot more. They are still with him.

      But they had a collective freakout over Jade Helm.

          I mean, moreso, that we’re just taking it. Conservatives stormed stores with mask mandates and forcefully “bought” items while being refused service. In Canada, they had that whole Truck convoy. All of this, over conspiracy theories and inconveniences.

          Meanwhile ICE is running mass “deportations” (to random countries the victims never belonged to) and people are… just letting it happen??

    This is scary:

    On Wednesday, ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee Bennie G. Thompson told 404 Media in a statement that ICE will prioritize the results of the app over birth certificates. “ICE officials have told us that an apparent biometric match by Mobile Fortify is a ‘definitive’ determination of a person’s status and that an ICE officer may ignore evidence of American citizenship—including a birth certificate—if the app says the person is an alien,” he said. “ICE using a mobile biometrics app in ways its developers at CBP never intended or tested is a frightening, repugnant, and unconstitutional attack on Americans’ rights and freedoms

    Oh so this document is the one with the real laws. All the other documents that say they can’t do the things they are doing are invalid but we better respect this one! Or else

    If you go to a protest, wear a gaiter and glasses and ballcap just like those ICE fuckers. And depending where you live you might just want to make this your default outfit for leaving the house at all.

      And for the love of god, leave your cell phone at home, or worst case, buy a burner with cash and don’t even turn in on unless its an emergency.
