I don't have a problem with immigration when done through the front door.

You don't have a problem with trump selling instant citizenships to anyone with 5 million bucks to spare.

You don't have a problem with melania trump getting an "einstein visa".

Just like You dont have a problem with attempted coups if they are committed by your party.

"Biden's Admin. didn't prosecute anyone"

Trump isnt going to either.

How does that make Trump better than Biden?

Biden didn't make a promise to release the Epstein Files. Trump did. However, Trump hasn't actually fulfilled his promise to release the Epstein Files.

Well, think about it. Under your rules, ICE could take you, and without your day in court, you'd be sent to some third world country.

You shouldn't be okay with that.

I don't think you have the moral fabric to tell us why you support that.

Haitians with Temporary Protected Status entered legally through the front door. Now, ICE is sending them to camps.

So. Either you don't have a problem with Haitians who came here legally being sent to camps after Trump ended their TPS.

Or, are you not telling the full truth about what you "don't have a problem" with.

ICE has detained United States citizens in possession of valid ID. ICE has detained people with valid greed cards for decades old bad checks. Those people aren't here illegally.

Do you deny those people are here legally, or do you defend their being sent to the camps as acceptable losses?

Since you used the word illegal, it's worth pointing out that being present in the United States without authorization is a civil tort. It isn't even a criminal offense. factually.co

This is why you deserve to be called a raetard. Biden's Admin. didn't prosecute anyone who took part in any of the child abuse that we're told is hiding in those miles of documents. And you don't care. You and the band of morons following each other around can't even admit that your bullschitt story falls apart when you consider the story you peddle that the DOJ had Trump in the crosshairs and simply let him go... Not only let him go, let him run for president. And win! Congrats! you lunatics won the Darwin Award for being the biggest bunch of shitforbrains raetards this country has ever seen.

#14 | Posted by lfthndthrds

Biden hired an incompetent attorney general who didn't even prosecute trump for 11 counts of criminal obstruction from the mueller investigation or his coup attempt. Biden's whole approach to trump was to let him fade away because he thought trump's failed coup would finally snap his cult out of their hypnosis, which it clearly didnt.

But the epstein transparency law was passed to fix all of that in 2025, and every day since then, trump has been breaking the law to keep the files hidden.

Retard test - why would trump break the law to keep the epstein files hidden?

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) Names Epstein Co-Conspirators

"Without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute.

Mr. Speaker, it's been a year since the president signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the government continues to withhold over three million files.

That's why we've introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act 2, to bring the fight to the state courts, accountability to the Department of Justice, and closure for survivors.

We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted.

Men like Jess Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Lapo Elcom, Tom Pritsker, Glenn Dubin, Frederick Fakai, Eduardo Teodorani, and John Luke Brunell, who was found conveniently dead by suicide in prison.

Danielle Seion, recently discovered dead in Paris.

Ramsay Elkoli and Prince Andrew who committed sex crimes in the United States, too. and women like Leslie Gruff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women.

Perhaps hearing these names will shame the Department of Justice into delivering justice. I yield back.( What?)"

ICE has refused to allow our elected representatives access to their facilities. I don't see you being outraged over that.

So your criticisms just seem like deflections. "This story has not been corroborated" at the same time as you support ICE making it impossible for accusations like this to be corroborated.

Their lack of transparency and history of coverups is the reason why I lean towards believing accusations against them. They could solve that problem by being transparent, like any honest government organizations should be. They CHOOSE not to be transparent. And, in fact, the CHOOSE to be as opaque as possible.

The fact that you support them from a position of ignorance really just makes you look like a sycophant.

Atlanta Suburb Shared Flock Data with More Than 2,000 Orgs

I have a friend that works in city government, he has all sorts of rules and regulations he has to conform with to publish information about the governments internal discussions for people requesting information.

I find the Flock system fascinating from this government perspective. How in the world did a company not think of this, just give the data to the governments without any authorizations/authentications or audit trail. Delete all the data 30days.

I don't blame Flock, I blame the governments doing this. I see no reason a local neighborhood shouldn't be allowed to install Flock for IDing thieves, where the local police need to request the info from the neighborhood watch. I also understand the advantage of a networked system that Flock created, this is hardly outrageous, its just good use of technology.

I don't see why Florida removed it, just make laws and regulations to limit access.

How can you be for single payer healthcare and against Flock? The same rules and laws apply to accessing the data. For instance Medicare data isn't private if there is an investigation, same with Flock data ..... meaning neither one needs a warrant.

But its just so difficult to understand why access is so poorly controlled, its mind boggling really.

Surprised our resident technologist doesn't see this issue.

It's more difficult for a government to get access to all my phone location data, than to access it via Flock.

Hegseth's Pentagon Lurches off the Rails

"We took Georgia in 2008 and Crimea in 2014 without the US making so much as a whimper. They were, of course, having a hard go of it with insurgents in the Middle East and Central Asia. We are going to redirect their focus back to the Middle East."

"And how are we going to do that?", Dashkov asked.

"We are going to serve them up a war they can't refuse."

Raindrops are tiny lightning bolts, & they're corroding cars

More from the article ...

... A new study led by Zhongyuan Ni, Rdiger Berger, and Hans-Jrgen Butt at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany, has shown that water drops routinely arrive at a surface carrying an electrical charge large enough to punch through an insulating coating. Not scratch it. Not slowly dissolve it. Electrically blow a hole in it, the way a spark jumps a gap.

The starting point of the study is a phenomenon called "slide electrification," which has only been properly quantified in the past few years.

When a water drop slides across an insulating surface like a leaf, a painted wall, a windowpane, or a plastic panel, it strips charge from that surface and leaves an opposing charge behind. The voltages involved are not trivial. Drops charged this way have been measured at up to 9,000 volts. ...

Scientists found that once the coating has been breached, the exposed metal sits in a salty drop with a fresh electrical potential across it. This leaves the ordinary electrochemistry that causes corrosion free to work on the surface it was supposed to be locked out of. ...

It's cute that you think they don't already have complete and "unfettered" access.

They don't have OFFICIAL login access.

But they get maga friendly law enforcement agencies to login for them. All ICE agents have to do is request local and state law enforcement officers"who already use an automatic license plate reader (ALPR) systems"to look up plates for immigration investigations.

Investigations and media reports show local police have performed thousands of database lookups at the request of federal immigration enforcement.

So yeah ... I guarangawddamtee they already have access to it.

US Strike on Iran Ends Month-Long Break

US launches new barrage of strikes on Iran around Strait of Hormuz September 1, 2026 7:13 AM EDT [Updated ~2:15 PM EDT]
www.reuters.com

... The U.S. launched new air strikes on Iranian targets on Tuesday, quashing hopes that an exchange of fire last weekend might not lead to a wider renewal of hostilities.

Oil prices had already risen after that first exchange of direct attacks since July and after reports of two tankers being hit on Monday leaving the Strait, the global oil supply waterway that Iran has effectively closed to shipping. Brent crude futures , already up 2% on the day, jumped almost 2% more on the reports.

Tehran remained defiant, warning that it would prevent oil being exported from the Gulf, despite a threat by U.S. President Donald Trump to hit Iran "hard" in response to the renewed Iranian strikes, and a warning from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that Washington was about to impose new sanctions.

"Today at 12 p.m. ET (1600 GMT), U.S. forces began striking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets in Iran," U.S. Central Command posted on X. "The strikes follow recent attempted attacks by the IRGC against commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and against American service members deployed to the region." ...

The Amount of Recalled Food Is Skyrocketing

Nothing could reflect better on MAGA than our food safety going quite literally to shit thanks to Elmo and Dotard.

When these candidates talk about getting rid of "job killing regulations" these are what they mean.

Food safety
Water safety
Air safety
Groundsoil safety

DOGE gutted departments on the promise of saving $2T and saved nothing. What happened was departments with decades of history of tracking these food born illnesses were destroyed through firings and retirements.

This is what happens when you elect a greed driven sociopath hell bent on collecting as much in bribes as he can from corporate america.

No one need look further than at the beginning of the cyclosporasis outbreak Taylor farms were identified as the source and the CEO paid dotard a visit with a $1,000,000 check and suddenly that finding was an "error".

That's what capitalism does. It corrupts everything because paying bribes is cheaper than having proper food safety systems.

So far ICE and CBP have mistakenly arrested 674 potential U.S. citizens, detained 121, and actually deported 70. ( and murdered 3)

This is why "due process" is so important

And as far as I know neither Obama or Biden killed any Americans in the deportation process.

If this guy doesn't deserve TPS status, who does? Very sad.

This problem didn't begin with Trump, and he shouldn't get all the blame for how it developed.

Obama's administration started Haiti's TPS protection after the 2010 earthquake, initially for 18 months. It provided protection from deportation and permission to work, but no automatic path to permanent residency.

The emergency help was understandable.

But then his administration expanded eligibility in 2011 and renewed protection in 2012, 2014, and 2015 because conditions in Haiti remained unsafe.

The temporary arrangement continued without a permanent solution in place.

Obama supported broader immigration reform. Congress shares responsibility for failing to deliver it.

But when Haitian TPS began in January 2010, Democrats controlled the White House and both chambers of Congress. They retained that control for the rest of the year.

Why didn't Obama and congressional Democrats secure a more lasting solution during that time?

He eventually left office without securing a lasting settlement for the Haitian TPS recipients covered during his presidency. His administration should have done more to resolve their long-term future while continuing to renew their temporary protections.

Meanwhile, people were building lives around a status that could end.

Trump is responsible for his decisions. Earlier administrations and Congress are responsible for theirs.

Kindly post something more intelligent than blaming this on anyone who voted for Trump.

This is but one sad deportation story amongst many thousands.

I'm sorry. Where were you when Kilmar Abrego Garcia was wrongfully deported to El Salvador despite having legal status that protected him from removal to that country, leading to a high-profile legal battle for his return?

Where were you when Maria De Jesus Estrada, a 42-year-old DACA recipient was wrongfully deported to Mexico during a green card appointment before a federal judge ordered her return?

Where were you when Mark Lyttle, a U.S. citizen with cognitive disabilities, was wrongfully detained and deported to Mexico in 2008, eventually wandering through several countries before returning.

Where were you when Renee Nicole Good, Alex Pretti, and Ruben Ray Martinez were murdered by ICE?

Media and legal investigations estimate that over 1,400 U.S. citizens were mistakenly arrested or detained by ICE from 2012 onward.

During recent mass enforcement campaigns, legal groups and court filings have highlighted dozens to upwards of 90 high-profile wrongful removals of asylum seekers, DACA recipients, and individuals with active court orders or legal protections against removal to specific countries.

We could completely fill the front page with these stories.

And you willingly voted for this shat.

Don't tell us you suddenly aren't enjoying the Great FAFO that you literally voted for.
