The whim of a madman

It’s a line from SPEED, but it’s a line that regularly plays in my head at the
moment.
I think the recent comment re Musk show us just how little long term
planning there is in a lot of this, other than ‘how do I remain in power
longer’.
By the time the public get to have a say, they won’t be allowed to have a
say. That’s the area where the long term planning is set.

ICE is the authority. Full stop. Like the SS. Local police, jurisdictions, state, it won’t matter. It’s shameful. It’s an abomination. It’s horrendous.

Fuck every single motherfucker that voted in favor of this bill. I hope they face punitive consequences while those below them literally die.

So angry right now that I can’t contain it.

There is now 'Alligator Alcatraz' merchandise out (some of which is federally funded). Hats, T-Shirts, mugs, etc.

We are living in a Twilight Zone episode.

The ICE funding is the only thing Trump really cares about in this bill. Everything else is standard GOP stuff: dismantling the remaining New Deal and Great Society programs, drastically reducing taxes on the wealthy, deballing any green energy industry - it’s all the same old shit. But supercharging a masked and anonymous militarized National police force that answers only to presidential policy, operates outside the legal system, and has a mandate to target specific minority groups? How the fuck did we get here and how do we get back?
