The Trump administration reportedly plans to mobilize up to 1,700 National Guard troops across 19 states in the coming weeks to support its immigration and anti-crime crackdowns, a dramatic expansion of the controversial operation that’s seen federal agents and Guard troops carrying out activities across Washington, D.C.
The troops, who will largely be activated across Republican-controlled states, will serve in support of the administration’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, as well as other law enforcement priorities, according to comment from unnamed Pentagon officials and documents obtained by Fox News.
When the smoke clears and the casualties are tallied by all the respective news outlets,…. Remember that this was all avoidable.
None of this had to happen.
Trump wasn’t inevitable but fascism coming to the US was. Both parties were committed to a dance that only ends one way.
I’ve been saying this for a while. You can’t continue to increase the income inequality gap without taking people’s rights away. This was going to happen one way or another. I have seen it coming for 20 years, but wasn’t educated enough to realize populism and demigogary (spelling?) would be a part of it.
Yep, that’s a big part of it. Even the good things Democrats did like the ACA were also designed to funnel more wealth upwards.
The liberals stopped worrying about the little guy and soon after stopped even talking to the little guy. Then the little guy stopped voting for Democrats. Fascists however are always ready to fill that vacuum. They don’t do shit for the little guy, but they do make him feel heard.
bOtH siDeS! aMiRiTe?
Surely Kamala would have built even bigger concentration camps on American soil. And I’m sure she’d have sent even more ICE agents to deport legal citizens and sick children. Oh and let’s not forget all the military she would be sending to fight the false crime rates she fabricated to distract from the pedophile ring she belongs to.
Both sides are completely the same!
Oh, fuck off with that “both sides” bullshit. Of fucking course there are things that Democratic and Republican politicians have in common, but we can’t fucking talk about it without some wise-ass pulling this thought terminating garbage.
For the record, I never even said they did anything the same. They have different roles in the same dance, and that dance brought us closer to the cliffs edge with every repetition.
lololol….
If you read my whole comment I’ve already answered that. Being part of the same dynamic doesn’t mean you are doing the same thing. It’s not that hard a concept to understand.
I believe in you.
Of course it’s not a hard concept to understand- which is why I was so easily able to point out the ridiculous notion that you’re somehow not trying to say that both sides are the same.
It’s pretty plain as day.
A man beats his wife on the regular. Cops get called, wife lies and defends husband, cops go away. Rinse and repeat until the wife is dead. They both contributed to that outcome. They both danced the dance at the cliff’s edge until the inevitable happened. Am I saying they are both the same? Hell no. The guy is a monster. That doesn’t mean the wife didn’t contribute to that outcome.
lol! What a shitty analogy. So in your world, Democrats are victims, and yet equally to blame?
Dude. They’re not even remotely the same. Just stop.
If, not when.
Every fascist regime falls eventually. The question is how much damage will be done before it does.
