Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

He already signed an executive order that targets homeless across the country seeking to send them to institutions. Just more hate and pride from the party of pedophile protectors.

Institutions... Totally not concentration camps.

I think the eugenics orders come next?

Freedom from life Centers

It includes holding and disposal vaguries for mental illness, which will include anyone they don't like acting hysterical.

So this is one of the eugenics orders. They're out.

Unless you count the loss of right to abort a fetus.t, even if it's rotting and infectious, or uknow... got a thing in your body you don't want... just yikes.

That is eugenics too. (ex: never applies to the capitalist's child if it's a bad time for them)

I think more homeless people should go to DC, this cunt isnt the mayor or king, his demands can go fuck themselves.

[–] nanoswarm9k@lemmus.org 5 points 1 month ago

You mean run another occupation?

DC gets cold in the winter, so that would be a campeign. Not undoable.

This really has nothing to do with the Epstein Files. I wish he would stay on message. It would be better for his ~~political~~ authoritarian career.

[–] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Where is he planning on putting them?

[–] Idontopenenvelopes@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He will concentrate them in camps.

Harvesting crops in the south

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Can't have the poor ruining his palace view.

Unlike Canute, I fully expect Trump to command the tides because he believes they'll obey him.
