“Now”…?
Ha, no. November 5, 2024 was the death blow.
Wait this is real? He’s still grudging about her?
Rosie O’Donnell the comedian and talk show host? THAT’s who super strong and brave mr. Trump is afraid of?
We have context? What did she do to piss off Trump?
Bin Laden won, he got some folks to crash a couple of planes and then the U.S. did the rest of the work for him, and now the America that experienced 9/11 simply doesn’t exist anymore, that country strangled itself. We are the corpse of what was once the united states and we are being Weekend at Bernie’s’d by christo fascists.
Fuck this country.
I know my daughter thinks im a weird old guy, but I often tell her the world changed on September 11,2001. Not just for Americans but the world. So many countries went along and adopted all the measures of control the US wanted in place. Im in Canada and I can honestly say our society has changed as well because of 9/11
Afghanistan: 3
Most Powerful Empires in the Modern World: 0
I got my haircut from someone who said 911 was a hoax and all Dems are manipulating the weather… So… Yeah he won
Hasn’t Trump got nonces to protect?
No he outsources the nonce protection to other nonces. It’s called Outnoncing.
Bonespurs says a lot of things. In a 1967 case Afroyim v. Rusk the US Supreme Court held that no US citizen can involuntarily lose their citizenship. But you’re right that the USA I once knew is dead - in that one a spoiled toddler who can’t find his own leaky asshole with a funnel would never have been elected President.
Are you really citing precedent as if the law even fucking matters anymore?
I realize I’m being an asshole and I’m sorry. And if any of these ass clowns get held accountable for anything they do I’ll happily eat crow.
I just don’t see it… We’re in for a hard reset sometime soon.
Memes notwithstanding, the Supreme Court hasn’t consistently ruled in Trump’s favor, even stuffed with 3 of his nominees (thanks to Moscow Mitch). The court did save his ass in their insurrection ruling, but in his second term they’ve been ruling about 50-50 for and against him so far. Here’s an article if you’re interested.
Thank you for the article!
It doesn’t fill me with much hope, unfortunately. The brightest spot comes in the concluding paragraph:
Although the court could be more forceful in pushing back on Trump… “it is unmistakable now that they are calling him out.”
Even if he’s correct, I think they’re too late and are now powerless to do anything. The real body supposed to be holding the executive accountable, the legislature, is fundamentally incapable of doing so. Add to that the wave of newly minted ICE agents who will likely be eager to uphold whatever order comes their way for that sweet government paycheck, I’m betting the rule of law is not going to save us.
I want to be wrong.
Barrett and Roberts have proven they’ll vote for what they’ve been paid to vote for like every other conservative on the court, their price is just higher when it violates the Constitution.
The time is now to delete your social media and connect on private communication channels with likeminded people. Use trusted vpns to connect to sites like lemmy. The next steps are crystal clear:
- It’s now illegal to publicly shit talk the administration, fuck the first amendment
- Use the massive massive budget assigned to ice to identify users who don’t fall in line
- Anyone who is so unpatriotic to publicly disavow the trump regime has their citizenship revoked
- ice concentration camps for those newly non-citizen “immigrants”
- Everyone else “internalized authoritarianism” s themselves into submission
When nobody speaks out it will feel as though there is no hope and you’ll feel alone. Keep safe communication channels open now so you don’t have to fear later.
Vpns may be made illegal, but there are other ways to anonymize communication.
No one can tell if you’re running a private VPN if you generate a bit of garbage unencrypted activity while you do it
Now seems like as good of a time as ever to say this. I have in the past always said that in 1930s/1940s Germany the average German may have or may not have supported the nazis. I have also said that the average German may have or may not have known about concentration camps.
Without the internet, those citizens never had a voice. And it was all too easy for the nazis to round up opposition, and take them to camps.
I have always had people argue me that couldn’t happen. That all Germans at that time knew, and supported it. Then they call me a holocaust denier. Which never made any sense to me. I never said it didn’t happen.
Point is, without the internet, todays modern american would not have a voice. It would seem like we ALL support maga. We don’t. However, there are large portions of americans who think of cops as the good guys. There are people who argue that police don’t abuse their power. Simply because their media never tells them about it. Not because they support police brutality, but rather because they believe Rodney King was a single incident.
These same people think you’re crazy if you tell them what ICE has been doing, or that we’ve already turned into a nazi state.
So I’ll say it again. The nazis took full power. They never had full support. Maga doesn’t have full support. Get your voice out there. Fight maga regardless of what nation you live in, just as your grandparents fought nazis regardless of what nation they lived in.
And now it’s time for some personal messages.
Pierre says hello.
Simply because their media never tells them about it.
Simply because their media of choice never tells them about it… FIFY
Ok, sure. But I’ll also say this. I don’t know anyone who watches multiple news outlets. I also don’t know of any singular news source that’s accurate and unbiased.
What I found used to work for getting the bigger picture is going on reddit’s news subs.
Thousands of people, all posting from various sources, with a comments section that isn’t biased towards one direction (though they do lean more left historically, but not always).
Then I got banned from reddit by a bot that never made sense, as the comments I was banned for weren’t even controversial.
And Lemmy just doesn’t have the pure numbers to do that sort of thing. Which is sad, because being decentralized is the whole point here.
The end result is, I feel my news is incomplete, and often untrustworthy.
So yes, those people chose the wrong source for news. But at the same time, there really isn’t a decent singular source either.
The ONLY way to make sense of the world is to see the news stories from as many perspectives as possible, and to make our own judgments.
Every media outlet has ulterior motives, Even and ESPECIALLY the ones that say things I agree with
But boomers and the ignorant all believe that news media is reliable as long as what they are saying sounds good
This is such a bad idea it was even condemned in the Bible
every media outlet sanewashed trump every fuckdamn day, yes fox and newsmax are cancer but don’t pretend that it is exclusive to them
Rich old conservative men own the media now, it all caters to trump left or right
Any German who didn’t rise against the Nazis did support them. Doing nothing is the biggest form of support fascists need to survive because they have so few hardcore supporters.
The same goes for Americans today. If you’re not actively fighting them, you are enabling them. Every dead immigrant or trans kid is someone you could have tried to protect but you didn’t want to use force or risk yourself for.
Born in the USA, her mom was US born too and he wants her citizenship revoked. Well outside the definitions of the birthright citizenship he’s pushing. So basically no one is safe
I’ve been concerned this day would come. At least as of this moment, it’s smoke being blown on social media. But we all need to pay very careful attention to this going forward, because the moment it actually happens, we are all fucked.
If you don’t have a public trial and must provide your own lawyer then it’s easier to hide.
This is real
I love me some good old fashioned verification, so thanks for falling on that sword for us. (No way in hell am I clicking through to that shit hole though.)
Edit: I misread the URL and it’s an archive site, not TS.
FWIW it’s an archive site, no traffic to trump social.
The link isn’t to Truth Social proper, but rather an archive site with a very specific focus.
Oh rock on. I misread the URL, so thanks!
Seems kinda random. Also, we now live in a reality where the POTUS singles out randoms to remove their citizenship?..
I’m eating an onion here, aren’t I?
He’s hated her for a while.
Jebus
Imagine being a full grown adult and thinking that is an acceptable thing to say to or about someone.
Are you saying it’s unacceptable to say this about Trump?
If only libs were as outraged by state sanctioned murder as they are about mean words on the Internet.
People can be outraged at two things although I wouldn’t call my comment outrage. It just boggles my mind that a 80 year old person thinks it’s ok to talk to people like that. Being respectful to other people is free. It would have cost him nothing to not post the comment.
I was taught at an early age to be respectful to people even if you disagree with them. But I was also taught to take up arms if someone tries to fuck with my rights.
not random, trump is a fascist and he dislikes her. This is the world we live in now.
Rosie has been regularly making videos (nearly daily) about the political situation in the US on TikTok

You’re probably mixing her up in your mind with Roseanne. If you did, it’s ok. Because that is who I thought this was about at first too.
But she’s MAGA though right?
Rosie? I don’t believe so. Other posts saying she’s been making videos critical of Trump, not that some MAGA aren’t also stepping out of line sometimes. I personally had not heard her name mentioned in like 15 years before today.
I mean Roseanne Barr, which I suspect is who the deleted comment was referring to based on several replies including yours.
I thought Roseanne Barr tried to reboot her show from the 90s like 10 years ago, and it was controversial at the time for being considered right leaning.
Roseanne ran for president in 2016 for the green party I think or maybe her own independent party. When they were rebooting her show, she made a rant on Twitter about a black woman and called her a monkey. I think it was a politician, I can’t recall who exactly. That’s why they kicked her off the show. The rest of the cast went on to do it and they renamed it The Connnors.
You might be thinking of Roseanne Barr
Just don’t talk about the Epstein files!
It’s not dead: it’s gone from latent fascism to acute fascism. It’s very sick, and it will die, but not without hurting the whole world in its noisy death throes.
the rest of the world would be hurting even if it wasn’t dying. but the US knocking itself off the top of the world order is gonna be better for the rest of the world in the long run.
If anything this is groundbreaking evidence that destabilizing an international rival is safe, easy and profitable. The rest of the world isn’t going to hold hands and sing kumbaya, every country is now in an arms race to root out their own instability and isolate themselves.
We’re headed back to the late 19th century. Say goodbye to soft power, simmering rivalries and large scale international cooperation. Every nation will have its own strong man and/or Palantir-style surveillance. Alliances will turn on a dime, your oldest friend could be your biggest threat in under a decade.
International mistrust now abounds at a time where cooperation is the only way to prop up our failing biosphere. All hard won rights and freedoms in the last 200 years will be quietly clawed back. Anyone cheering for this is a fool.
No it won’t, because China will simply fill that gap.
What I think is happening here is in his subconscious he is Rosie and it’s Rosie that’s doing all these horrendous things (he is actually doing) and projecting. But seriously America, in the next election try not to vote in the raging sexual assaulting narcissist.
no this is pretty consistent with the fascist slave colony people pretend is a country
“Why is everyone talking about Epstein??”
