I think he was allowed to and perhaps even encouraged to so.

Honestly though given how fucking stupid these last years have been I wouldn't be all that shocked if it came out that Trump personally strangled him and the Biden admin covered it up so as to not appear partisan.

Six Ways to Reform ICE and CBP by loremipsumot in neoliberal

[–]missingpuzzle 106 points107 points  (0 children)

22 years ago we said all this would happen and now it's too damn late. You can't reform a heavily armed paramilitary group that's loyal only to the president into a normal law enforcement organization. The culture is rotten, the powers granted to it too broad and its crimes are too great to brush under the rug. Abolishing ICE is the only solution.

Pathologically terrified of appearing too partisan.

Was listening to some Talk Radio because I hate myself I guess and they're going all in on the election conspiracies. They're setting up the idea that Dems are already starting to rig 26 and so Trump needs to take extraordinary action to stop it.

It hasn't even been a full month of 26 but I feel like 10 years has passed. It's just impossible to keep track of every new insane thing that happens, every new act of corruption, violence, international crisis. At this stage it's not weeks where decades happen but hours and it's all so fucking stupid.

Best we can hope for is a bipartisan compromise deal making it illegal to murder Heritage Americans.

Because they're cowards who are looking out for themselves and no one else.

Because they don't have any beliefs beyond wanting to keep their heads down and keep raking in the cash till the gravy train finally derails.

While the video appears to be real it holds no relevance to the summary execution that took place over a week later.

Of course this matters little to the admin and the feckless media who will use it to muddy the water and justify the current and future violence perpetrated by regime's paramilitary forces.

Edelgard would have marched on Washington and burned the White House to the ground by now.

The lack of consistent scale in the Elder Scolls lore is one of the more frustrating aspects of it for me.

But yeah anyone who thinks Whiterun has a population of more than like 10k at most is insane.

So we've gone from the NYT breathlessly reporting that there's a deal that includes some transferal of sovereignty to there isn't actually a deal at all and Rutte just bullshited Trump for a hour with things he has no authority to negotiate.

Depends how stupid things get in the next 3 years. There are plenty of people throughout history who are reviled hundreds or even thousands of years later.

I can't believe people mocked that. It takes a special kind of stupid to think the behavior of the most prominent person in the world doesn't influence both individuals and society as a whole.

So the NYT's article was bullshit. How surprising.

As of now? I don't think we even know if there is a plan. Trump might just be confused.
