      @randahl Wow, all that's missing there is the SS lightning lapel bars and the deaths-head-logo cap. Fuck this tiny, evil man. 🤬

        @randahl is this being deliberately escalated so to intimidate people and suppress voting, clearly anyone who doesn't look purely European will be afraid to come out.

          @oatmeal that is one angle. Another angle could be that fear and intimidation could make people move away from the country, and those most inclined to avoid the US are the left leaners.

              @randahl I see.

              [...] Although the administration has undertaken aggressive removal efforts, the negative number is mostly due to a significant drop in entries into the U.S., the report said.

              I know many USians living in Europe with no plans to return - some have even renounced citizenship for tax reasons. Every time I hear about friends or family planning a trip to the US, I'm shocked. Why support their economy? Why take the risk?

              In our family group chat, I've been asked not to post any #Trump / #MAGA-related comments or memes because some relatives have been routinely scrutinized upon re-entry, some are waiting their Green cards... possibly about the time to seriously forget about that and go back home.

              The #US has added a level of authoritarian procedure in monitoring citizens' political speech to determine border treatment that even 1930s #Germany didn't have. Kudos. Soon #Russia, #China, and the US will be indistinguishable from each other.

                @randahl this is not a “new normal”; unless we do something to change course, it will never be this good again.

                (What I’ve been saying about climate change for years, now also applies to the political climate)

                  @randahl we have an executive who seems to be able to shut down and send home entire executive departments with impunity, summarily shut down funded and lawful programs written into law, but the best congress can offer is to threaten FUTURE funding of DHS/ICE? The minority party needs to STOP insisting on playing only by the rules. The correlary to fighting fire with fire is fighting shit with shit. It hurts, but is it not warranted?

                    @randahl Let us also look at our own situation in Europe. How are far-right groups reacting in Denmark and elsewhere? In France, they welcome the ICE's methods, with some even saying that raids should be carried out to capture anyone who is not ‘in order’.

                      And he will. By instigating uprest and then f**k them over by force. Trump said in 2024: If you vote for me now, you wont need to vote again. Watch out. You have a second Putin.

                        @randahl He’s not trying to win on approval anymore. It’s clear he’s aiming to steal an election. Look out, Americans.

                            He will try it…

                            But all of a sudden I have to think of the storming of the Bastille and the storming of the Capitol…

                            This regime will not last.

                              @randahl is it true, that this is the new uniform of the ICE?

                                          @sleeve98 yes. It will be interesting to see what happens once the panic sets in. As Steve Bannon said: “If we lose, some of us are going to jail — myself included”.
