Overview

Elons Millions couldn't change the fact that MAGA is falling apart.

couldn't even tell the ppl they fired in a coherent manner, just cut their access. Feckless jerks who hate the most vulnerable and don't care of ppl die.

And pay $6m per year to a corrupt foreign president to do it, too.

What are the odds that the man they admit to making a mistake on is the only deportee they made a mistake on? An innocent man, husband to a natural born US citizen and father of a disabled child, deported to a foreign land with no chance to get out since US courts have no jurisdiction, because of tattoos. TATTOOS! And the El Salvador president can only offer a mocking “tsk-tsk” to the judge as he collects his $6m a year from this criminal administration to take deportees from the US. And I’d like to know in what court EVER, the onus was on the judge to offer proof of anything. That may be the most absurd notion I’ve heard in this or any other forum.

Yep the administration screwed up. If they are going to enact the Alien Enemies Act they should have had concrete evidence/intelligence. Single reporting is not that. The act also did not seem to pertain to the situation because the target country is not an adversary. I could be wrong on that though.

Notices went out at 5am this morning. Entire departments are gutted to the point of virtual non-existence. I hope you and your loved ones don't get sick and I really hope there is not another pandemic or epidemic because the US can no longer respond. This isn't about cutting costs and government waste, it is about cruelty and lining the pockets of billionaires. You will not see a penny from this and all that will happen is more sickness, disease, and death for every day Americans while RFK Jr, Trump, Musk line their pockets and force their insanely radical and anti-american agenda upon all of us. The impact will be severe.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/man-was-sent-el-salvador-due-administrative-error-protected-legal-stat-rcna199010 You care to comment on this or is it fine because "proof" wasn't offered by the Judge? Proof also wasn't offered by JD Vance or anyone in the administration other than a supposed "confidential informant". This is not freedom, this is tyranny. We have laws and once we decide that "feels" should replace laws, we are no longer a country but a dystopian hellscape run by Oligarchy fueled Dictators.

b/c not everyone is a terrorist, this is why you have due process so you can make sure these people being illegally sent to El Salvador are actually terrorist. Looks like the White House admitted they messed up and got rid of innocent people. This is what you voted for, you want America to burn, Trump and Elon are doing a great job. Guess it doesnt matter for MAGA as long as Twitter and Newsmax keeps pushing fake propaganda. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-administration-admits-error-deporting-092850908.html El Salvador will not allow these people to ever get out of prison also, so this guy along with others have lost their lives just so you can pretend like good things are happening.

they can take anyone, from anywhere, forcible deport them without any legal proceedings and then do nothing... this is not freedom.

The responsibility is on us as consumers to discern actual news facts based on reliable multiple sources vs. info-tainment and editorialization. While that often takes certain time and intellectual commitments to accomplish, common sense is the basis for it.

Not only social media, normal media is just rehashing the same old stuff. Most people in Europe don't even bother watching the news or reading newspapers anymore. They all just copy paste each others propaganda.

To be clear the article points to Russia as the reason for allocating more money to military modernization. The reference to the U.S. infers Germany is unclear the direction of the U.S., not that the U.S. poses a direct threat to Germany. More and more I see similarities between what is happening now and prior to both world wars. It’s happening in Europe and Asia. Add in NK military involvement in Ukraine and known relationships between Russia, China, and Middle East entities.

Social media plays the biggest part of this, allowing everyone to have a voice while the people that run the social media control what voices get heard. Sadly the right extremists have control over some of the biggest social media outlets.

This is exactly what China does which is only tell people when good things are happening and suppress the bad.

We’ve changed cultural attitudes in our history and can certainly do that again, just as Europe and most of the developed world has done. Cultural change simply can’t be avoided as societies evolve and the founders understood this well. Cultural change is not dependent on everyone agreeing on what America “is.” It’s more about the values we already agree on. The reason I point to the last 40 years is that it’s been during that timeframe that misinformation/disinformation and other propaganda have been disseminated to the masses across a much wider populace and more often and with greater speed than before, without any check in place. Freedom of speech, like our other rights codified in our Constitution, is not an unlimited right. People live in their own information bubbles and that more than anything has created these ridiculous culture wars and prevented us focusing on those things we have in common that matter most to us, imo.

Germany is ramping up military spending: It isn't solely because of Russia. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdjyjlkewr2o

Better than nothing, but just abolishing it is the right move. All of that said.. popular vote would still have put Trump in office this election. But, it would have had impacts on prior elections and it's still the right thing to do.

It's not really a mentality of if you don't like it. It's more the question of, can the United States change its culture to the point where it can support cultural ideals that are present in other countries. It's not about the past 40 years, it's dates back to the founding of this country and what people's belief of "America" is. Sort of like expecting the tiger to change its stripes. At some point you have to realize it's a tiger and if you wanted it to be a lion, you need to go get a lion. As I read it, the rule is rolling back a ruling that had not even taken effect. It was only put in place in December and set to take effect later this year. The financial industry was already preparing a lawsuit over it. All of that aside, perhaps I am in the minority who thinks it must just be advisable to not overdraft your accounts or expect to have access to money you do not have.

US Senate Vote To Lift Cap on Bank Overdraft Fees https://www.newsweek.com/senate-votes-lift-cap-bank-overdraft-fees-2052084 The U.S. Senate has voted to overturn a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) ruling aimed at limiting excessive overdraft fees, a decision banks are hailing as a rollback of undue restrictions but consumer advocates see as potentially worsening the financial strains facing American families. The Senate voted 52-48 to repeal the $5 cap on overdraft fees, with all Democrats opposing the measure and all Republicans, besides Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, supporting it. So glad the Republicans have the working class's best interest at heart. Thankfully no Billionaires were hurt during the cap. I bet you wont find a single bit of information about this from any MAGA propaganda source.

There is no "We" right now, it's the dangerous MAGA and everyone else.

I was referring to "we" the US crossing the line to dictatorship.
