Can we just acknowledge that this is unhinged? Biden has the strongest border policies ever implemented by a Democrat. This just shows that there is no compromise possible with these traitors. They will never admit you made a step in their direction, only demand more and more and more until you’re just doing their bidding.
This is truly the way of extremists and terrorists, they demand the country be run to their preferences, democratic systems be damned.
Is there somewhere I can read about Biden’s border policy compared to other Democrats? This is definitely something I’m totally uninformed about and I’d like to read up a bit, if you know of a good rundown.
Not really a rundown. Just years of paying attention. The basic thing is they aren’t recognizing the right to declare asylum after entering the country anymore. You have to wait in your home country or Mexico until your paperwork is processed. Of course that’s ridiculous considering how the cartels prey on the refugees and asking someone to stay in the country they are seeking asylum from.
Pra ba jeebus
It really is sad to see so many Americans captivated by misinformation that they’ve convinced themselves is real. Abandoning science, reason, discussion, compromise, even tolerance. I try to keep my bloodthirst in check but after years upon years of them growing like a cancer, forming cult-like militia, becoming full blown domestic terrorists threatening high treason, it can’t be tolerated any further. It was cute when it was just posturing, symbolizing they were unhappy with the system at large and wanted to fuck with it a little.
Now it’s spiraled out of control. Now the punishment for treason should be felt. Either mercifully with the arrest of Abbott or vengefully with the GOP Texans being buried under the new courthouse.
A more cynical person might suggest they are doing this BECAUSE of that. Biden can’t run on the numbers if Texas keeps blocking action.
That’s not cynical, they’ve come right out and said this is what they’re doing. https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/4429211-romney-trump-border-bill-biden/
I got $400 on Cartels blowing them the fuck away.
No they will just buy guns from them and it will become a gun/drug economy, probably ironically sending drugs into other states.
Shit or get off the pot.
Texas: proceeds to get messed with
These dumb fucks can’t go a single winter or summer without their power grids going down and then begging for free money and help but they somehow thing they can be their own country? Fuck it, let em try and then they will find out that the Mexican cartels don’t fuck around.
These jackanapes get to yammering about secession every few years but haven’t actually done anything about it for decades. It’s all performative.
If that shithole secedes, can’t we just immediately go to war with them- reclaim it as American territory, and then put someone in charge with a brain?
This is what happens with legal positivism and going off the gold standard.
Everyone is a prophet.
No. Please. Don’t. Go.
Oh well.
Stop…
Please…
Don’t go…
My favorite part of this is that despite this “border crisis, ”Gregory Wayne Abbott is galavanting around fkn India like he’s Anthony fkn Bourdain. Meanwhile, we have all sorts of shit convoys and armed goofies coming there to “volunteer in Texas.” Eagle Pass is only 97% Hispanic, so I’m sure nobody will get confused and murder some nice citizen or anything.
I don’t fucking get this. Abbot literally ships illegal immigrants by the bus load into the country free of charge, how is he not a fundamental cog in the illegal immigration machine?
They’ve basically finally got around to calling the bluff. No one’s going to do anything.
We had a coup attempt last year and people are getting slapped on the wrist.
The government’s not going to do anything about anything until there’s a full-on civil war.
If that.
The U.S. government is incapable and unwilling to protect its own people, therefore it is illegitimate. And it has been for a very long time.
One star states gonna one star. Fucking shit hole.
Texas is a drag on our society. I say say cut em loose.
I have yet to see this mentioned in any of these threads, at least the ones that I have read. If Texas secedes or tries to, Republicans lose 38 seats in the House of Representatives and two Senate seats. This give the House to Democrats for the foreseeable future and Democrats an easier path to passing bills in the Senate. Not that Texas, Abbott, cares.
if the secede their electoral votes shouldn’t count until congress passes a bill readmitting them. it’s only fair
not to mention then they’ll be a country with oil within peacekeepin’ distance of the USA
Can anyone tell me how much of Texas’ oil production is offshore? Because the US would claim all of that on day one.
We’re going to have invade every 20 years to get rid of some horrible dictator or another.
I mean it goes without saying that you aren’t arguing this, but they will never secede. This is fodder for local politicking
Here’s hoping a congressman disappears him.
But seriously, there needs to be a mechanism for the feds to impeach a governor.
They have one now but it’s messy and stains the carpet.
That carpet is Persian! Irreplaceable what with there not being a Persia anymore.
Edit: misquote
They pee on it?
C’mon man, that rug really tied the room together!
Do I look like I’m governor?? The toilet seat is up!
cut off all federal funding
let then secede
invade and retake them as a territory with no federal voting rights
make dc and puerto rico states
republicans never win again
Please stop I can only get so erect
Naw, split up the state into 4 states, with Houston, Austin, Dallas and San Antonio as capitals. Cut state lines and populations up to ensure that as the main city votes so goes the state.
That’d be 8 democratic senators.
Add DC, PR, American Virgin Islands American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands and that’s potentially another 12.
Regardless of politics the territories, and DC, should have statehood and equal rights and representation as the rest of us or they should have independence. It’s part of our national identity. No more colonialism or secondclass sub citizens.
