Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Fash consumes fash.
Boob recognize boob.
Thick as thieves.
Thick as pig shit.
You mean to say she paid money to look like that?
She's fully delusional, all the way on Trumps level.
She wanted to be trasurer, a judge, a laywer, talked about "integrity and honesty", etc. she also physically fights people, owed a bunch in tax liens, committed federal wire fraud of charity money, etc.
Yes, but the money was stolen from a charitable cause so everything is acceptable...
The USA just looks more like a bowl of shit every single day.
Looks? It is a bowl of shit.
“I love my Hispanics!”
Can you guess what we smell like?
We feel like it too.
Even worse:
Fiore, who does not have a law degree, was appointed as a judge in deep-red Nye County in 2022 shortly after she lost her campaign for state treasurer.
A judge who does not have a law degree is deeply dangerous to the judicial system.
Imagine knowing more about law than the judge who is trying your case.
6 times a charm!
But seriously, isn't there some requirement that the judge have passed the bar exam or something?
Oh America, the land of "isn't there some requirement?"
Hey, from the right perspective, defrauding a monument to the police is pretty based.
Critical support ✊
I wonder where she got the fund to pay for a trump pardon.
Probably just dipped into a children's cancer charity or something, like these people do.
with funds to honor a slain [police] officer.
Wonder how the boys in blue feel about that.
Too busy licking her boots to care.
I'm a Boy In Blue and I'm SO PROUD of Trump for Pardoning this woman who did NOTHING Wrong! STEALING is NOT the Same as DEFUNDING you STUPID LIBTARD COMMIE!
Where’s the “thin blue line” cunts?
Grift the police.
I mean honestly, police do so much shady and potentially illegal shit, that you could pick any small to midsized rural or suburban police department, and just show up with 25 guys (30-50 for larger PD's) have 5 guys in matching suits with ear pieces and official looking badges. The rest can be geared up in full swat kit, put official looking acronyms on the uniforms, then just walk into the PD, announce that you are from the newly created internal affairs review board, specifically created by Trump to find unloyal officers. Say you've been monitoring their communications and have determined the entire department needs to be vetted.
if they resist, do what needs to be done. If they comply, take control of the entire PD. They probably do all their IT support through foreign third parties. odds are the only verification you'll need to give them will be something that's written in a piece of paper That's sitting on the desk that belongs to their one or two IT people.
Like holy shit, what I'm describing is basically DOGE, only used to fight facism instead of enable it
There's SO MUCH uncertainty, and such a lack of transparent planning and coordination with the current admin, that if you show up in numbers, with a professional looking force that could be federal, like ICE; especially with a smaller 'lead' team of 5-6 suits to do the talking, you could quickly round them up, strip them of their badges, weapons, uniform, cellular phones, and send them on their way. By the time they know what hit them and they're able to make calls to people that may or may not do something it's too late, you've already taken the facilities, equipment, patrol cars etc. You swipe the badge, and the infrastructure from them using confusion and a display of force, and that's it.
If they say something, deny, delay, defend. Deny their account of events delay any release of actual information state that because of national security concerns you are not allowed to make statements, then defend everything you do dating unspecified top secret sources. The Trump administration is such a f****** s*** show they probably wouldn't even know if you were one of their operatives or not, and will just ignore the situation, especially if it's some small town with 5 officer department and a few support staff
So while that is a fun fantasy, and let's say it's even plausible. What do you do afterward? Do you execute the police officers in the street? Do you ship them to a re-education camp set up by the fifth column in the foot hills of the rockies? How long do you keep up the charade? Parallel Systems of support are needed to fight a fascist government, not just a bunch of larpers on an afternoon.
Criminals helping criminals.
At this point .... are they just trying to become even more uglier and stupid than they already are?
