Raiding These Down, Here

Republicans Keep on Lying for Fascism

Before a federal judge blocked Donald Trump from putting members of California’s national guard on the streets of Portland, Oregon, late on Sunday, the state’s Republican party welcomed the planned deployment in celebratory posts on social media.

“President Trump on Sunday deployed 300 California National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon after a judge ruled that the Oregon National Guard could not be deployed to keep federal facilities and personnel in Portland safe,” Oregon Republicans wrote on their official Facebook, Instagram and X accounts.

On all three platforms, the statement was illustrated with an image that seemed designed to support Trump’s false claim that protests against immigration sweeps in Portland are so out of control that the city is “burning to the ground”. On one side of the image, a line of police officers held riot shields; on the other, a crowd of young men held up flares that lit up a night sky filled with red smoke.

On closer inspection, however, it turned out that the image was not a photograph of a real event in Portland, but instead a fabrication created by combining two photographs of scenes that unfolded in South America nearly a decade apart.

Republicans are lying to support Trump's push to turn this country into a police state. They are not loyal to the Constitution, they are loyal to Trump.

To be an active Republican is to be a traitor. They are the Confederates of this century and they are just as evil as the Confederates were.

Heh. Heh. Heh.

Donald J. Trump reportedly “exploded with rage” on Tuesday after the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the 2025 Peace Prize to California Governor Gavin Newsom.
...
Though the committee did not bestow its prize on Trump, it did recognize him with a laser printed “certificate of participation.”

Everything DHS/ICE Claims is a Lie

They are lying about the woman they tried to kill in Chicago.

ICE lies and fabricates. Their so-called agents are totally lacking in moral character. They are mask-wearing, heavily-armed cowards. They are badged-up terrorists.

The GOP gave ICE more money than any other law enforcement agency. The next congress controlled by Democrats needs to defund it.

ICE is beyond saving or redemption.

Burn it to the motherfucking ground.

They put their faces on money.

For 224 years in this country, those whose faces were on money and stamps were dead.

But that's a tradition that the Senility Patient-in-Chief wants to break. It's also the law, but that doesn't matter to Trump. He's already a convicted felon, so what are a few more laws to him?

Since he's making the Oval Office look like Saddam Hussein was using it, it's only fitting that he adopt another tradition of tyrants and put his ugly mug on a coin.
