Is anyone else having dissociative episodes after reading through the JFK files because he can’t cope with the fact that a shadow government has been fucking with the country since at least WWII?
Your just now realizing that? This is mostly just confirmation for us. The most surprising thing is that he was actually killed by Oswald shooting him 3 times. No other shooters but everyone knew about it and let it happen.

It's a bitter pill, I hope to god it forces more folks to confront some uncomfortable truths. Nixon got taken out by the same fucks, they just didnt' kill him.
 
How does having Trannies make the US military more deadly?
If you have had your soul destroyed by horrors posted to shock/gore sites, and are no longer emotionally moved by inhumane crimes against people, I invite you to check out the SRS Horrors thread over in the Stinkditch. All the trannies have to is face the enemy, and then spread their legs like Old Greg (Archive). If the visuals of their stinkditches don't immediately destroy the enemy, the smell will.

What this judge doesn't realize is that were we to weaponize troons in this manner, that would be a war crime.
 
A queer bar in Sacramento has banned any MAGA attire being worn after an incident with a guy wearing the iconic hat. At first they were going to ban all political stuff but the alphabet clientele threatened to riot since ‘you can’t both sides with nazis faggots’ so the owner capitulated.
 
Come on Trump, I will name my first born after you if you somehow pull some 6d chess maneuver that ends the Patriot act all because some nigger in Paris was too lazy to write his name.
Good news bad news. The Patriot Act was killed in Trump's first term when he vetoed it's extension. Bad news is that they passed new legislation that does 95% of all the same shit about a month later.
 
If you ignore the law and nothing happens immediately, that's not the same as having no effect. The president ignoring the law sets precedent, a destabilizing one, that runs counter to the system he's setting such a precedent in and runs the risk of permanently or at least in the long term, disempowering an entire branch of our government and in so doing upending the conceptual structure of checks and balances we're familiar with.

Do not think for a moment the judges pushing this aren't aware of this, in fact it's the very point of it. If they get into power again they'll not stop pointing at Trump ignoring even so much as one order regardless of its absurdity as a justification for whatever they want to do to/for/of whomever.

Judges don't have the ability to do anything at all. The executive branch is the doer. I generally agree that the system is being destabilized; what you are missing is that it's the judges who are doing it because you didn't quite get the nature of their power. The nature of judicial power in our system is to grant or deny political legitimacy to the government. The weakness here is that political legitimacy rests entirely in the minds of the people, and that requires that the people generally perceive judges' rulings as "fair." So if the judges start abusing this power with fantastical, absurd rulings, then the people stop seeing the judiciary as the final authority on which political legitimacy rests. But that is exactly what leftist judges are doing right now, and that, not Donald Trump, is what is destabilizing the system. The less self-aware judges issue rulings like we just saw, where a district court tried to declare that the President has no power to expel foreign invaders from the country without a judge's consent. We've seen a judge rule that the Constitution grants Jim Acosta a personal right to attend White House briefings, and another judge at least float the idea that the President has no power to decide which employees of private news organizations ride with him on Air Force One.

When judges issue absurd rulings, they make it easy for the President to ignore them, because they put Congress in the impossible position of either accepting that the President is going to ignore the judges, or impeaching him for something asinine. Congress wouldn't survive impeaching Trump for deporting Tren de Aragua. The whole government agreeing that Venezuelans have the right to sneak into our country, get some guns, and chase Americans out of their homes would have delegitimized the entire government.

EDIT: A leftist judge just cited Hamilton in a ruling where she has tried to seize control of the military. :story:

It's so retarded that I could see it being true; remember how the bay of pigs went.
i didn't realize this was a greentext, i must have brainwashed myself into thinking i was taught exactly this in school. It just fits, the KGB assuming that it couldn't possibly be that easy to do, neither side wanting to trust the other, the fall out because both sides care more about intel than action. FFS Strangelove came out the same year and is literally about a similar scenario of "intel on one side tries warning the other who doesn't believe them because it would be silly to admit to having planned such an operation and they let it happen and there being no method in place for if some guy were to go rogue and do an operation like this" only instead of being nuked some irish dumbass dies. people act like 1968 wasn't inevitable when the Civil rights Act turned this country into something on par with Biden's administration in terms of how heavily the stories of black animals appeared everywhere and the lack of balls the justice department had when it came to anti-white violence.
I haven't seen the presidential debate from Kennedy's era that got him elected but I can guess he probably worked extremely well in front of a camera and his charisma shined through the TV set.
i honestly assume its coming up with reasons afterwards, overall it was pretty even as a debate, and it was a genuinely close race, Kennedy's mafia connections and his brother freeing MLK right before election and getting his endorsement was the killshot, on par with Comey reopening the Clinton case right before election.
In other news, poor little Ben Shapiro.
makes sense, people forget the dailywire was originally a NeverTrumper operation, between that and the dumb stunts like that snow white film or the candy stuff it was probably bleeding money. Another thing is that there is really no reason for a conservative operation to make money anyways when its shitposters on twitter doing most of the real journalism and the "faces" are never as big of money makers as people assume. plus its not like a pro-israel right wing is rare or a unique position.
What will tim pool do now?
yeah he's fucked.
 
Hahaha. Because of "dogequest", The liberals have gone so feral they're attacking their own and justifying it as "necessary sacrifice

Imagine being such a soy, safe faggot that you think vandalizing a stranger's car is any kind of resistance.

As always, the left chooses the most passive-aggressive, dickless path and somehow still fails.

This is the big thing liberals miss when they're doing their hand-wringing about constitutional crises and bad precedent. Trump voters (a majority of the country) don't care about his defiance of the judicial branch because they see the federal government as the enemy and Trump as a brave underdog who finally has the power and authority to defeat it.

People have tried to play by the rules and work within the system to make things better for decades, but nothing ever comes of it because the system isn't built for that. It's designed to work against you and subvert you and punish anyone who wants to make a change for the better. After so many decades of getting beaten down, the people have properly realized this and are done trying to play the game. Charlie Brown has finally realized that Lucy won't ever let him kick the football, no matter how many times he trusts her, so he's decided to go home. Lucy then pouts and cries and shouts at Charlie for breaking the tradition and creating a crisis that might mean that she has to hold the ball in place for once if she ever wants him to play with her again.

everything they do is self serving political theatre meant to do one thing, boost their egos and make them feel good about themselves. they post it online, circle jerk each other and then in 20 years they can sit around and talk about how they were a part of the "resistance".
