He did that so quickly because he knows how to skim money out of campaigns. I bet he will start a campaign fund for 2028, even though he is ineligible, "just in case".

Hegseth also has deep connections with the so-called TheoBros, a collection of ultra-conservative and extremely online millennial Christian men who follow an Idaho pastor named Douglas Wilson. Some of Wilson’s followers believe that the United States should, as Mother Jones’ Kiera Butler has written, “be subject to Biblical law.”

Interesting. The only difference between these guys and Islamic Fundamentalists who are in charge in places like Afghanistan are which book they want to use as the basis of their laws, and the color of their hats.

Um ackshually, 2000 was still the 20th Century so Bill could troll the Jets twice in successive centuries.

If I recall correctly, back then Lemmings didn't want to vote for her because she was a cop.

No, Newsom has a chance to win, because he doesn't have a vagina. Apparently having one is a disqualifying factor for many voters.

Maybe he is just doing this to troll the Jets

How is Mint internationally?

I think it will, because local police dont really want to be involved in this stuff, it's not their job. Blue states will be very likely to tell the Feds "We can't stop you, but we won't help you either".

I understand all this stuff. This shit is hard. But all that is preferable to just being plucked off the street and effectively disappeared. As bad as it was for non-whites here before, it's about to get much worse.

And the Blue State thing matters because I believe that Trump will not get Congress to go along with a militarization of this deportation effort, and the existing Federal infrastructure is not enough to pull it off. So he will have to heavily lean on red states who will be happy to send State Police to violate these people's rights as long as the Feds look the other way. Moving to a state that will not go along with that will go a long way toward keeping them safe

“It would be a mistake,” Lindsay Aime, a Haitian immigrant who has temporary protected status until 2026, said of the deportation plan. “All the businesses across Springfield, if you lose good, beautiful workers, you will feel it economically.”

I am surprised more non-citizens (and even the naturalized citizens) aren't leaving that town and state right away. I understand it's hard to uproot your family and just move to a different state. But they are going to be forced out in a few months regardless, and if Trump does it they will get put in detention until they get flown back, no questions asked. And we all know Trump is starting there. At least if these people go move to a Blue state the local police won't help the Feds find them.

And people shouldn't think they are safe just because they have permanent residence, or even are citizens. I expect whoever Trump recruits to round up these people to not ask those types of questions. They will detain anyone who looks like they don't belong, confiscate their ID, then conveniently lose it, leaving them with no proof. Do you think AG Gaetz will care about that?

All my shit is in the Google ecosystem. I am fairly confident that Gmail is not going away anytime soon. However, I am more afraid that some obscure ToS violation will forcibly disconnect me from their ecosystem, and I will have to scramble to make sure all my contacts have my alternate info. I am doubly screwed, as a Google Fi customer. If we all get suddenly degoogled, I lose a phone number that I have had for over 20 years.

As good a deal that Fi is for me (I normally don't use bandwidth unless I travel internationally), I may switch soon just to reduce my exposure to Google.
