Well then it can’t deport all the people it wants to.
But at the same time, my faith in the judicial system is… flagging.

My faith in the judicial system is the highest it's been since February.
And our social contract may be expiring. 🤷♀️
It's done.
BUT... some of the more sane sympathizers are starting to realize the King is insane, and are pushing back. Not saying that's going to save us peasants. but it's a sign.
Yeah, the Republic fell a month ago with the first times they ignored the courts and some people seem to think they can give it TV style CPR and get right back to where we were on Jan 18 like nothing ever happened.
Babies, the damage is done. And it's not even over yet. Place your bets now on 2040 turning the corner back to stability. A lot will come to pass between now and then. That's 15 years from now. We have passed a generational level of work to rebuild after only 80-some days.
If you don't already have an actionable plan for what to do next, with defined tripwires of when to do what, you're very late to the party. Not too late, but late.

They said he was insane the first time around when he called Kim Jong Un 'rocket man'.
Expiring contract? You got traded to El Salvador for a 3rd round pick in 2048 and cash considerations.
Time to get a new agent for a real contract. Unions won them to begin with, which is why they're a main target of every authoritarian regime.
And our social contract may be expiring
It's been shredded already.
Despite this fact, a lot of us are still holding up our end of the bargain. How do I quit?
Key words there being "it wants to deport".
The problem isn't the trials, it's the selection criteria.
So due process is no longer a thing.
Got it.
Hey Maga when Trump turns this on you and you piss and moan about no due process... My response will be this
🖕
They're already complaining. The Gestapo has already started picking up MAGAts and their wives.
Do you know how long it would take to try the cases of the 77.3 million people that voted for him?
Go right ahead and set that precedent, please.
Let me know when this starts happening.
I think everyone in this thread needs to re-watch the scene where Littlefinger and Cercei discuss power.
Yeah, Elon and Bezos really need that money for important things. Like to fake sending plastic millionaires into space

Are you saying the rocket launch was staged?
Idk for sure. It just seemed off. Like, it seemed like a big PR stunt. No pressurized suits or helmets, for a bunch of old ass siliconed up ladies, with no astronaut training. No frizzy zero g hair. Video of one of them falling down in zero g... The video of it landing at like twenty five miles per hour, and kicking up a ton of dust and then immediately after the ground shot with no dust still in sight. Then they opened the door early and then shut it, so Bezos could come open it with his special tool. And the door opened inward, as opposed to outwards like every other spacecraft or airplane designed to withstand that kind of pressure... I don't understand what the purpose of faking it would be, and it seems stupid and conspiratorial, but it all just reaked of bullshit

Then we should reform our immigration policy so we can tax them right? That's the only carrot on a stick I think they conservatives might take.
They do pay taxes. This weird myth that immigrants somehow all live and work in the US for free is silly. They pay income tax if they work, they pay sales tax when they buy things, they pay property tax if they own a home or help someone financially who does.
