Trump orders Hegseth to form National Guard unit in each state to combat crime, protests

The Gestapo was the secret police. Hitlers private paramilitary organization was the SA and later the SS. So this development is more like setting up the SS. Especially if you then fold in ICE to run the camps.

Or maybe the Super Service

I was thinking Emplacement Protection Services for Tyranny Everywhere In the Nation

Cool acronym, bro.

They'll never think about it like that. Even though Ruby Ridge happened under Bush 41, the Weavers are all insane about Democrats. Even though most of them would suggest 9/11 was an Inside Job to pass the Patriot Act, under Bush 43, it was all Obama to blame for anything bad. Even though Trump banned bump stocks, it's the Dems that love gun control (which they rarely ever actually pass). Even though James Brady was Reagan's press secretary, the Brady Bill passed under Clinton right after Waco happened and the ATF made taking guns a national obsession with those people.

Motherfucker the second amendment doesn’t only apply to “aficionados”, but all citizens. Where were you when they banned the most effective guns with which to resist tyranny?

So that means you’re stepping up too, right? You didn’t just ask me to go die alone for you because you couldn’t be bothered and maybe don’t like guns to begin with, right? You realize that there’s a difference between one guy with a gun and forty guys with guns, RIGHT?

Google Cliven Bundy or MFAC for admittedly unfavorable but effective examples of this, and then feel free to fuck off after that.

Or were you talking to the more numerous MAGA gun nuts who can’t wait to goose step over and kiss some boots and who obviously won’t be lifting a finger to stop any of this?

I hate your shitty, smug, and typical response because this shit is serious and you’re a fucking joke.

Knowing how Science works is now a death penalty crime.

They've been trying to spin literally any protests or even just token resistance as criminal, and rural voters, by and large, absolutely believe that cities are hives of crime and iniquity.

Trump is the most dangerous criminal in the states. If he really wanted to clean up crime, he'd turn himself in.

Human Trafficking and Child Rape.

not to mention the Ludlow Massacre

Lol wut. That's why they were created. To gun down strikers and protect companies.

Then he proceeds to get hammered and accidentally add a dick pic on the official zoom slideshow presentation

Shouldn't take much longer tbh

That is a huge financial undertaking.

Congress gave ICE $75 billion over four years, approximately $18.7 billion each year because daddy Trump demanded it. Added to the $10 billion Congress already appropriated ICE for fiscal year 2025 in March, ICE now has $28.7 billion at its disposal this year. ICE alone now has more budgeted than the entire Department of Justice.

“Trump thinks cops are bad at their job” should be the headline going forward.

They can afford it. After all there are only two entries on the Republican federal budget: 1. grifting money. 2. money to the paramilitary to foment and subsequently suppress dissent.

They're run by the States.

This whole thing isn't going to pass. Trump/Hegseth are only external expressions of the fundamental rot at the heart of America's social, political and economic systems. America is in terminal decline and putting guardrails around the presidency is too little, too late

We had a chance. Biden's administration should have been solely focused on preventing the return and acceleration of fascism. Instead, they cowed to their corporate masters and threw crumbs to the people.

As others have said, we've likely had our last free election as the United States of America. Whatever follows should absolutely have guardrails against this happening again.

This is likely the end of the road my friend, there is no "when this has passed".

That is why there is no reason not to fight with everything you have now.

Who's gonna put up guardrails? The useless democrats?

Sure. Use your guns to sieze the epstein files, hard drives, etc.

But do it before they are gone.

They will keep attacking and doing evil stuff while we want Files. They will give up power when pried from cold dead hands.

Trump, after signing the "restore the sanctity of christian marriage act", which bans any sexual acts outside of marriage and without the intent of reproduction, as well as all forms of pornography, will get caught raping young girls in the white house, then he will instead rub it into the faces of liberals (read: everyone left of Mussolini) that he and other people in the system can do whatever they want. Then a TV advertisement about serving president Trump will explicitly say that "if you are loyal enough, you can even rape children". Then Elon Musk begin tweeting about his new girlfriend, a very terrified looking 11 year old.

We already know the answer to that.

An inevitable goal in a dictatorship is disarming the opposition. The in-group can often keep their weapons to help oppress the outgroups.

This was also, as it happens, one of the real goals of the 2nd Amendment. Most of the founders weren't under any real belief that a militia based military was a viable treat to a regular army like the British model, they saw how poorly the militias fared in the Revolution.

The militia model that was the goal of the 2nd was about rapid reactionary forces for slave revolts and Indian exterminations.

Personally I think this is more about killing protestors but whatever they can do two things with one action

Huh. Sounds familiar.

We know how that turned out for them.

We're finally going to be distracted from the fact that Trump Rapes Kids.
