Let it be known for the rest of eternity that on the eve of the largest nationwide revolt against America's wannabe king

Last edited Sat Jun 14, 2025, 05:50 PM - Edit history (2)

Let it be known for the rest of eternity that on the eve of the largest nationwide revolt against America's wannabe king, the silver spoon punk ass bitch chicken taco'd out and threw in the white flag BEFORE A SINGLE PROTESTER HIT THE STREET.

And just like that, TACO Trump strikes again.
Five minutes before midnight east coast time, Trump directed ICE to abruptly halt all immigrant raids at farms, restaurants, hotels, and the like. Trump also directed ICE to stop so-called 'collateral arrests' where ICE randomly detains and arrests non-criminal immigrants.
Last month, Trump dropped his tariffs. Weeks ago, Trump folded to Canada. This week he folded to China. And now Trump is folding on a key plank of his deportation agenda just a day after calling in the Marines to Los Angeles.
The midnight directive to ICE marks an abrupt pivot in Trump's immigration agenda and sidelines immigration hardliners like resident Nazi Stephen Miller in favor of MAGA's corporate and billionaire donors.
Trump's rich friends told him the reality which is immigrants contribute more than anyone knows to this nation. They grow all our food, prepare all of our food, distribute our food, and in many cases as caretakers and child care workers they spoon feed food. Immigrants pay a higher tax rate than billionaires and they are the single greatest factor behind economic growth. In short, Trump's rich friends put the scare on him.

Better link I hope. Down a few post but date is 6/13/25.

If they are doing something that is beneficial to them, they're a valued 'worker'. If they're of no personal use for them, they're illegals, thugs and criminals. Invaders, the worst of the worst.

And even if things actually change on thr ground, it will likely only be because trump needs his shock troops for suppressing protest and intimidating Americans

Some actual news source links would be helpful. A quick search gives me a few that use the term "pause", as in pausing raids... but I'm on my way to the protest right now and too difficult to find and link good sources.

This sounds hugely positive and I'm hopeful it's a real change.

ONWARD!

The immigrants are also likely providing personal housekeeping, landscaping services, childcare, etc., to the GOP hypocrites in Congress. Remember Nannygate? Wish some intrepid investigative reporter would ferret out who, starting with Noem and the dairy farm connection.

racist and bigot, out to HURT "those people" - minorities he says are criminals and rapists (says the criminal rapist), the ones eating the cats and the dogs, the unqualified "dei" occupying "white jobs" (as opposed to those "Black jobs" he spoke of)...

reportedly said of Sen. Alex Padilla, who was strong armed and handcuffed by Nazi Noem's goons, "He looked like an illegal."

LOOKED like and illegal? What the fk does that mean anyway?

...so he's out to hurt "those people" until he finds out he's hurting THEIR people... then he backs off.

That's the ONLY reason.
