vegetaTrump threatens Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship: "She is a Threat to Humanity"
pelespiritHe’s going after citizens now, testing the waters. Either that, or it’s a distraction. Maybe both.
Don’t underestimate him and assume it’s just a distraction. He’s willing to do far more than this.
I really don’t like the “it’s a distraction” argument. If everything today is a distraction for yesterday and tomorrow will have more distractions for today, then they are no longer distractions. It’s a figurative shotgun blast of bullshit on a daily basis and hoping most of it sticks.

There is no Merlin in a tower exacting immaculate designs through an orb on a table here — it’s just a bunch of people who were raised on the dark liquor of grievance culture who were given power. They’re all taking out their grievances. That’s gonna be the entire story of the next however long. Measure your place in that paradigm and plan accordingly.
CharlesDarwinBannon called for it, explicitly - they want to flood the zone with shit, and they hit the ground running with Project 2025 as well as lots of Taco’s personal vendettas and weird proclivities (like the tariffs, like invading Greenland and Panama, and renaming the Gulf of Mexico, etc.).
What the fuck do you mean “now” it’s been happening for weeks
