Donald Trump - MAGAtwat news and discussion

I'd still say this is mostly performative and not much will really be done but he will claim a huge success.

I wonder how much he'll actually reduce overall immigration numbers - the business interests his administration serves depend on an easily-exploitable army of undocumented migrant labour. But I think there will be some performative cruelty for Trump to throw like raw meat to his base - ICE and/or the military roughing up some migrants and separating families.
 
I thought that Fox were claiming yesterday that the crisis at the border was sorted? It's a miracle. That would mean Joe sorted it, or it was a lie all along. Whoops! Get the military down there quickly to bolster his bs.

This is exactly what I think will happen a few high profile raids or some such shit, but little real change.

Of course he will claim a huge success and his supporters will say it was a huge success even though the numbers will not change much.

The bigger concern is the encouragement it gives to all the rasict pricks out there.

But I could be wrong, one of the mistakes I made last time was thinking he was all bluster but a lot more shit got done than I expected.
 
Biden's statement:

These public servants have served our nation with honor and distinction and do not deserve to be the targets of unjustified and politically motivated prosecutions.

...Baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc on the lives, safety, and financial security of targeted individuals and their families. Even when individuals have done nothing wrong—and in fact have done the right thing—and will ultimately be exonerated, the mere fact of being investigated or prosecuted can irreparably damage reputations and finances.

That is why I am exercising my authority under the Constitution to pardon General Mark A. Milley, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the Members of Congress and staff who served on the Select Committee, and the U.S. Capitol and D.C. Metropolitan police officers who testified before the Select Committee. The issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense. Our nation owes these public servants a debt of gratitude for their tireless commitment to our country.


There's definitely some downsides but I think I might have done the same thing in his shoes - people who think Fauci belongs in prison wouldn't have changed their minds if Trump hadn't pardoned him, and Trump would have pardoned the J6 crowd whatever happened.
That’s fricken terrifying when you think about it. Literally for his own protection.
 
I've staggered down to my local hipster pub in east london. Pretty lazy young people lounging around when they should either be working, studying or looking for fucking work. Lazy fucks. Shall I ask them I put it on the big screen....? Or get another round..

they're all blissfully unaware.

Daily Fail has been trying to gin-up rumors of a divorce. I swear they create more news than they report.
They would :rolleyes: There are all kinds of reasons (like health issues - her own or a close family member for example). If there IS anything, it would come out eventually.

Could just be that she really can't stand trump and knew he would be at the funeral.
 
He did used to be married to the woman who played Bill Cosby's wife in the Cosby show. She's a massive rape apologist who still claims Bill Cosby did nothing wrong. Wonder if, during their marriage, her views rubbed off on him?

I was aware of the first bit, but not the second.

Anyway, it's all just showbiz, so I really don't understand why anyone should be either surprised or disappointed that the Village People were happy to perform at Trump's inauguration.
 
I have a table. But this is history. Bezos blanking Zuckerberg. And these fucking kids blanking all of them.
I don't think I've ever watched a presidential inaugration in my life. I bet if you went to a random pub in DC or Iowa for that matter on the day that Starmer gave his first speech as prime minister, there probably weren't that many punters glued to the coverage of that either, the ignorant cunts.
