BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Marjorie Taylor Greene Announces Bill To Tackle 'Weather Modification'3·2 days agoThis reminds me, I need to sharpen my guillotine.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•‘I worked so damn hard’: Biden laments changes in U.S. since he left office - National26·3 days agoHe should have had all those traitors rounded up on Day One, and held at Guantanamo for their roles on Jan 6, and as National Security threats in general.
Instead, he appointed the weakest Republican in existence as AG, who dithered and slow-walked the investigation, and gave the MAGA traitors a 2 year head start on the election.
The Democrats are as responsible and complicit in the MAGA rise to power as the Republicans themselves.

BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says CNN may be prosecuted for reporting on app that alerts ICE sightings2·3 days agoProbably the best thing we can do to prevent it from happening again.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Democratic lawmakers denied entry to Alligator Alcatraz immigration detention site201·5 days agoThey say that, but MAGAs are cowards at their core. Let’s see if they will actually fire on elected officials who are simply doing their jobs. I doubt they will.

BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Republicans Are Cutting Medicare. Not Only Medicaid, Medicare. Passage of the Big Beautiful Bill will force mandatory sequestration that will mean half a trillion dollars in Medicare cuts.2·5 days agoI saw a meme the other day that said “Democrats fighting against Progressives,” and showed the terrifying T Rex from the first Jurassic Park movie.
Then it said " Democrats fighting MAGA policies," and it showed Barney.

BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Kilmar Abrego Garcia describes ‘severe beatings’ and ‘psychological torture’ in Salvadoran prison6·5 days agoThey have already awarded a $250 million contract to build a 30,000 bed facility in Guantanamo.
For context Guantanamo currently houses up to about 250 people. The average maximum security prison hold 800-1200. The largest prison, in Angola, LA, holds about 8300. So the new prison in Guantanamo will hold almost 4 times as many as the largest prison, which is already several times larger than average.
This facility will be on foreign soil (Cuba!), far away from the prying eyes of the media, the courts, lawyers, protesters, family, etc. If they were illegals, they’d be deporting them, so who are they planning on keeping here, and why?
Also, I’ve been tracking this development since he first signed the executive order for it several months ago, but I’ve never heard a single journalist in any media mention it, or ask any member of the administration about it. Most Americans aren’t aware of this in the slightest, and the media is helping keep it that way.

BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•GOP lawmaker caught dumping Medicaid provider stock before megabill vote1·5 days agoWhat, me worry?
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•DOJ Opens Door To Stripping Citizenship Over Politics | It's the latest example of the Trump administration's assault on citizenship.7·5 days agoThe bottom line is that they want to incarcerate as many people as possible.
What does a corporation do when they are already paying their people as little as possible, and replace as many as they can with AI? Imagine if slavery were legal, and they could force people to work for literally free?
The only legal form of slavery is prison labor, ensconced in the Constitution, so as long as people are in prison, the administration can rent them out to wealthy corporations. The corporations get cheap/free labor, and the government gets to maintain control.
In addition, that’s how they will treat people who require any public assistance, like Medicaid or Food Stamps. You will be forced to live in a camp, and work for whoever they tell you to work for. In return, you will get a bed, basic food, and minimal medical care.
Same with homeless people. Put them in a camp, force them to work, and declare the homeless problem solved.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•DOJ Opens Door To Stripping Citizenship Over Politics | It's the latest example of the Trump administration's assault on citizenship.6·5 days agoNo, they’re calling Alligator Alcatraz, because they think Alcatraz was a decent place. HitlerPig has even floated the idea of re-opening it.
Alligator Auschwitz is too close to reality, and they are still in the denial stage that they are following the Nazi playbook.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•DOJ Opens Door To Stripping Citizenship Over Politics | It's the latest example of the Trump administration's assault on citizenship.31·5 days agoWe’re talking about going to California, or perhaps another country, if anyone would take us.
If elections end, and HitlerPig becomes dictator for life, then the entire west coast will probably break off, and sign an alliance with Canada and Mexico, surrounding 2/3 of America with hostile territory.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says CNN may be prosecuted for reporting on app that alerts ICE sightings31·5 days agoThe website offers an explanation as to why there is no Android version. Basically it’s because Android would require them to maintain a database of Android users, which is a security issue if it gets confiscated by the government. They call those privacy concerns “non-negotiable,” and suggest Android users but a cheap old iPhone model to use the app.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says CNN may be prosecuted for reporting on app that alerts ICE sightings9·5 days agoIt IS a drug - Dopamine - and they are addicted to it. The Conservative Propaganda Machine knows it, and feeds it, giving them constant hits of Dopamine all day.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says CNN may be prosecuted for reporting on app that alerts ICE sightings19·5 days agoEven if we can finally purge MAGA from our government, and even have it declared a terrorist/hate organization, how do we deal with millions of brainwashed idiots? They aren’t going to change their minds easily, and accept that they were conned.
They were conned once, they can be easily conned again.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.todayto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says CNN may be prosecuted for reporting on app that alerts ICE sightings13·5 days agoIt’s worked for ABC and CBS, why not CNN? Just threaten to pull their broadcast licenses, and accept a settlement bribe.
I suspect CNN won’t be the last.
Hmm, an endangered child’s parents send him in a craft to be found and adopted by others, assuring his safety. You’d think that would resonate with MAGA Evangelicals, who should recognize the story of Moses.
