ok these are like actual supervillains lmao what the fuck is wrong with the republican party

If you pitched this as a plot for a dystopian remake of The Running Man, you'd get shot down for being too ridiculous and unbelievable.

Speaking about Noem, now she wants her own plane too:

How long before all of his cabinet members are demanding the same. At tax-payer's expense of course.

Even Kid Rock knows that the ICE raids are bullshit since he closed his restaurant to avoid an ICE raid.

Is his restaurant where divorced dads go on the weekend instead of seeing their kids?

a lot of folks don't realize just how much of our service industry is built on a ton of hard working, underpaid folks here without documentation.

And then they wonder why food is more expensive in Europe.

"Govertainment"

The ultimate lack of seriousness.

[gondrin]

So, if the various news reports are any indication, SCOTUS will rule pretty much 6-3 or 7-2 against Trump's attack on Birthright Citizenship. It looks like Kegan, Barrett, Brown, Sotomayor and Kavanaugh are against Trump on this with maybe Roberts. Thomas and Alito are most definitely going to dissent against a ruling unfavorable against Trump seeing as they will try and make it to where universal injunctions aren't a thing outside of SCOTUS.

Thomas would vote to overturn the 13th Amendment just to be contrarian.

Is this where we will get the Idiocracy version of "Rehabilitation" and if you survive the arena, you get to be free?

It's important to note that the case before them is not, in fact, about whether to repeal birthright citizenship. While that may nominally be what the case is "about," what the case is really intended to do is overturn the ability for federal judges to issue nationwide injunctions, because Trump really really hates that individual judges can just fuck up his blatantly illegal orders instead of him being able to just keep doing illegal shit until it goes to the Supreme Court, while delaying such a hearing as much as he possibly can.

Its kind of insane the Bush era judges are more insane than the Trump nominated ones

[Mazza]

To illustrate just how crazy the executive's arguments are in this Barret actually tore into their lawyers after they were giving Kagan lip.

Also, I suspect Roberts might be a tad pissed off at the right now that said right is trying to steal his control over the judicary support systems away from him. The leopards might have jumped the gun there.

Trump's best friend in the world, James Comey, former head of the FBI is in the news again. Of course, it's about Trump. He found some seashells on the beach.

https://time.com/7285796/james-comey...gram-post-fbi/
They happened to look like 86 47. Weird, huh? "Cool shell formation on my beach walk."

Oh wait, he forgot what 86 meant. He's very sorry, and had no idea that people associate it with violence. The post is down, and apology up!
https://x.com/yashar/status/1923145740559294574

Trump is, indeed, blessed by the character of his opponents. The lucky bastard. When they nominate FBI directors, they aren't sending their best, folks. (Trump will naturally step all over his own dick in responding to it. That's his choice. Absolutely predictable)

Except, this isn't a death threat, 86 is to banish or remove, not to kill.

You didn't say any fucking thing about any of this shit.



Take your bullshit outrage somewhere else.

[Mayhem]

Sweet, the faux outrage here again. Clutching her pearls like the pro she is, tehdang at it again.

From meriam webster linked in the time article:

The most common meaning of eighty-six encountered today is the one that is closer to its service industry roots (“to refuse to serve a customer”). Given how many meanings the term has picked up in less than a century of use, however, it’s anyone’s guess as to what meanings it will pick up in the decades to come.

Truly violent, oh the violence of refusing to serve a customer.

[Breccia]

The post is down, and apology up!

Wait, hold on a second, I think you missed something.

Hang Mike Pence! Hang Mike Pence!

There it goes. Yeah, your faux outrage is easily seen thought when you stand beside violent terrorists and voted for the person who led them and pardoned them. Your post is easily dismissed as hypocrisy and handwaved.

- - - Updated - - -

If you're sensing a theme in Trump's tenure so far, well let's be honest you have some choices: grift, failure, dictator moves, siding with terrorists, yelling "TARIFFS!" at random cameras, etc.

But a relatively new one is him saying he'll give one-shot payoffs to people, payoffs he can't control (Congress does) so he can seem to be the good guy while knowing what he promises is impossible. Or, not knowing, that's arguably worse.

So far the ideas have included paying women to give birth, paying undocumenteds to self-report, and of course the famous $5,000 DOGE checks that, oddly enough, nobody is mentioning anymore. I think even @tehdang knew it was bullshit, I don't think he mentioned them once...but that still counts as approval and support considering he never said they were impossible, either.

The most recent one comes from Congress: Seniors. Just being old and still voting.

House Republicans’ “one, big, beautiful” tax bill includes a new temporary $4,000 deduction for older adults.

The change, called a “bonus” in the legislation, is aimed at helping retirees keep more money in their pockets and provides an alternative to the idea of eliminating taxes on Social Security benefits, which President Donald Trump and other lawmakers have touted.

The bill provides a “historic tax break” to seniors receiving Social Security, “fulfilling President Trump’s campaign promise to deliver much-needed tax relief to our seniors,” White House Assistant Press Secretary Elizabeth Huston said via email.

The proposal calls for an additional $4,000 deduction to be available to adults ages 65 and over, whether they take the standard deduction or itemize their returns. The temporary provision would apply to tax years 2025 through 2028. The deduction would start to phase out for single filers with more than $75,000 in modified adjusted gross income, and for married couples who file jointly with more than $150,000.

"If taxing seniors is so bad, why not change the tax rules permanently?"

They know they can't.

The Senate is prohibited from including changes to Social Security, including the proposal to eliminate taxes on benefits, in reconciliation bills like the tax package now up for consideration.

"How many people would be affected?"

Very few, actually. Retirees typically get less income and therefore more likely to pay much in the way of taxes at all. Also, SS income is taxed by its own special lower rate, so if your only income is SS, you're even less likely to pay taxes. In such cases, a deduction means nothing.

As a reminder, Trump promised multiple times to remove SS taxes (again, a plan that would help only the higher-end of SS taxpayers, as lower-end ones tend not to pay them). That is not up for debate, and that is not happening. Trump promised something he could not deliver and people voted for him anyhow. The current bill proposal is simply being "salted" with this, the idea being to yell at people who vote against all the other contents "YOU WANT TO MURDER SENIORS!" due to this last-minute addition scribbled in Sharpie.

Oh my god someone with a brain wants Trump removed from office the horror clutches pearls and looks for a fainting couch. 86 just means to remove something it doesn't mean assassination as your ilk keep trying to push.

It's quite amazing to see how dumb you people are. Some moron says something on the internet and all the MAGA clowns run with it. 86 isn't a call for violence. But nice try though with your fake outrage.

[alach]

8647 could mean so many things. Putting the FBI on it seems like a huge waste of resources.
But I'd like to see a post with a 86 Dog Murderer to see how she responds.

[Ivanstone]

ok these are like actual supervillains lmao what the fuck is wrong with the republican party

Hey just imagine what would happen if they won!

They could be just like last year's winners: Whitman, Price, and Haddad.

"86" is such a sad excuse to get angry/cry...

Restaurants literally "86" menu items when they run out of ingredients etc. They don't literally murder the dish lol

The "fuck your feelings" crowd really love to be all up in their feelings over nothing, huh?

This is so bs lol

8647 is not a call to kill the president and it has never been. 86 46 exists and has been decently popular merch around conservatives. 86 45 has also existed and I am sure that if I put some effort into looking for it I can find 86 44. Republicans are such huge snowflakes
