Trump's ICE
This probably won't happen as it sounds like normal Trump bullshit bluster.
But it what if it does?
It points out one of the big issues with ICE. Who really controls them? Are they Trumps private army? If so then they seem very dangerous, very SS in the NAZI way.
I mean could Trump send them to the NY Times because he didn't like an article? Apple because he doesn't want them importing from a certain country? Could he send them to gas stations in a big city to force lower prices? Could he send them to arrest a governor?
I don't know but ICE would be a lot less threatening to the people of the US if they
- couldn't wear masks.
- had to wear identifying clothing.
- were held accountable when they fuck up.
- Had to answer to Congress or each state rather than being thrown around like they the Village Idiots own personal army.
Fuck Trump!
Trump and Bibi's War
Says an Israeli News site.
The Iran war is not about Israel, it's about China - opinion
Yeah, the US and Israel are bombing the shit out of the country that Netanyahu and right-wing Israelis have wanted us to bomb, for what 25 years, and it's not about Israel, it's about China.
US Wars
The Rude Pundit gets it right!
The Only Way to Talk About the Iran War Is to Say the US Needs to Stop
(I just wanna add one thing: I'm pushing 60 years on this goddamned planet. There has not been a single fucking war or military intervention in my lifetime that wasn't based on lies or exaggerated bullshit. Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iraq again, and now Iran, none of them were worth a single life. None of them were about protecting the United States or defending an ally who was attacked. It's pathetic that we keep doing this. It's pathetic that people still support leaders who do this.)
Bibi's War
US Media never mentions this part of the war.
Israel has been continuously attacking Lebanon.
'Gaza model': Netanyahu, Katz instruct IDF to strike bridges, homes in southern Lebanon
While Israeli settlers are terrorizing the West Bank.
Israelis commit dozens of attacks against West Bank villages, burn buildings, vehicles

Trump and Bibi's War
Trump just feels it in his gut.
Before Waging War, Consult Historians First
The Iran war fits into a long list of predictable miscalculations.

Trump's War
Ol’ Donny Trump Has Really Stepped in It This Time
TRUMP’S NEW WAR OF AGGRESSION has to be ranked among the most idiotic decisions in the history of military conflict. It’s up there with Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union, or Pickett’s Charge, or the Battle of the Little Bighorn, except if the aggressor armies in those conflicts forgot to bring any fuel, tanks, or rations.
US Homeowners
Out here in Eastern Teabagistan we can tell when a new homeowner isn't going to make it by the uncut grass. If they bought a house but can't afford a lawnmower they aren't going to be there very long.
'Hidden' housing costs are sinking homeowners
While those headline figures suck up most of the oxygen, the other, often-overlooked ownership expenses — taxes, insurance, pesky homeowners' association fees, and incidentals like a leaky roof or kitchen renovation — have gotten pricier than ever.
Trump's War
Mein Führer, Staligrad has been obliterated!!
I'm Sick And Tired of All The Winning
"Inside the administration, some officials are growing pessimistic about the lack of a clear strategy to finish the war. But they have been careful not to express that directly to the president, who has repeatedly declared that the military operation is a complete success."
Trump's BS
Is it really a lie if you don't have a clue and are just making shit up?
Trump's comments on the debt from the campaign trail.
From Gemini:
During his runs for the presidency in 2016 and 2024, Donald Trump
made several high-profile statements regarding the U.S. national debt.
His rhetoric often shifted between a commitment to total elimination
and a more pragmatic "King of Debt" persona.
2016 Campaign Statements
During the 2016 cycle, the national debt stood at approximately $19 trillion.
Trump’s primary stance was that his business acumen would allow him to
eliminate the debt entirely within two terms.
The 8-Year Elimination Promise: In a March 2016 interview with
The Washington Post, Trump stated, "We’ve got to get rid of the $19 trillion
in debt... I could do it over a period of eight years." He suggested this could
be achieved through renegotiating trade deals and stimulating massive
economic growth.
"King of Debt": Trump frequently referred to himself as the "King of Debt,"
arguing that his experience with corporate restructuring would help him
"buy back" U.S. debt at a discount if interest rates rose, a claim that was
met with significant skepticism by economists.
Balancing the Budget: On Hannity (January 2016), he claimed, "We can
balance the budget very quickly... over a five-year period. And I don’t
know, maybe I could even surprise you."
National Security Risk: He repeatedly tweeted in 2012 and 2013—
sentiments he carried into the 2016 campaign—that the debt was a
"national security risk of the highest order."
2024 Campaign Statements
By the 2024 campaign, the national debt had climbed significantly
(surpassing $34 trillion by early 2024). His 2024 platform focused
more heavily on tariffs and deregulation as the primary engines
for debt reduction.
Tariffs as the "Debt Killer": A central pillar of his 2024 "Trumpism"
platform was the use of a Universal Baseline Tariff. He stated that
"tariffs and taxes on other countries... will make the USA rich and
debt-free again."
The "Gold Card" Proposal: In early 2025 (originating as a 2024
campaign concept), Trump proposed the "Gold Card," which would
allow high-net-worth individuals to purchase a path to U.S. citizenship
for $5 million, with the proceeds specifically earmarked to "reduce our debt."
"One Big Beautiful Bill" (OBBB): This was the signature legislative
proposal of his 2024 campaign, which he promised would "slash deficits"
and "restore fiscal sanity." After its enactment in July 2025, his
administration claimed it would eventually reduce the debt-to-GDP
ratio to 94% by 2034.
Tariff Dividends: Trump floated the idea of providing Americans with a
dividend from tariff revenue, suggesting any leftover funds would be
used to "substantially pay down national debt."
