“While your REAL ID would count as a photo ID when voting, in only a few states would it be considered proof of citizenship. Only five states — Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Vermont and Washington — offer the type of enhanced REAL IDs that explicitly indicate U.S. citizenship.” Go look at your shiny new license and see where it stipulates that you’re an American citizen…. It doesn’t. The problem is that your ID looks exactly like the ones that the state of Texas issues to non-citizens. You can use it as photo ID on Election Day, but you can’t use it to register or re-register to vote.

…. And that “Real” license is inadequate to prove citizenship as required in the SAVE Act. I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you.

I can’t imagine… You and your family will be in my prayers.

For the record I’ll say this… there are lots of differing opinions here, some of which I can’t stand. But I do not wish ill upon you, your families, or anything of the sort… and I would be greatly dismayed to learn of any of your passings. We aren’t our political beliefs… we’re human beings, Americans, and neighbors. Im going to put my phone down and go enjoy this beautiful day.

I’ve got a serious question. I doubt anybody responds. What’s your red line with Trump? What could he do that would make you say “hold on… that’s too far and I can’t support this guy.” I think that there are a lot of people here who have no such line. There’s nothing that they can imagine that would ever cause them to stop supporting Trump unequivocally.

No, sir… most people were appalled at what happened Charlie Kirk, and disgusted by the way that those on the left celebrated his passing. But every time someone on the left passes, decent people are also saddened, but definitely don’t celebrate anyone’s death. The problem is that the President of the United States keeps taking to social media to celebrate every time someone on the left dies… and his supporters still can’t say “that’s wrong.” They say “well, we didn’t elect him to be PC. That’s just Trump being Trump. Do you blame him after they investigated him?” It’s one thing for some liberal fruitcake college kid to celebrate like an idiot when Charlie Kirk died. It’s completely indefensible when the freaking President keeps doing it. The man who is supposed to lead the country hates half of it. Don’t believe me? Read his post from this morning. Believe him-he keeps saying it.

I don’t know why people keep saying that about me and the great CB. It’s flattering, but I’ll never be as good as that guy. Trump’s actions to this point in no way compare to 1944 Hitler. But him and 1938 Hitler are one and the same. I always wondered how on Earth Hitler got all of those Germans to go along with his evil actions. I no longer have those questions when I see how completely Trump’s followers give him a pass on everything he does. It’s bananas. I’m telling you Ags… if Trump had ICE round up every single Democrat congressman tomorrow and executed them on the front steps of the Capitol, most of his followers would be like “what do you expect after the way they went after him and his family.” I believe that in my heart.

Edit: Double post

The funny thing is, if it were 1942 and we were in Germany, some of my friends would be very supportive of that one dude from Austria. He was very pro-Germany. Christian. Charismatic speaker who stood up to the establishment. Tough, no-nonsense guy who spoke his mind. Didn’t mind making the hard choices on behalf of the country. In fact, he also started invading countries to “keep Germany safe.” Is there anybody here who can NOT SEE the comparisons between that guy and Trump?

I was talking with a local Leo about a senseless double murder a few months back over a parking lot accident. He told me the mindset of the killers was “I had to…. They were going to shoot me, so I shot them first.” The Leo said that it was pointed out that the victims were unarmed. “The killer just shrugged… “they were going to try to kill me.” I guess we can justify bad behavior as preemptive retaliation for an imagined attack. The President of the United States this morning on social media: ”Now with the death of Iran, the greatest enemy that America has is the Radical Left, Highly Incompetent Democrat Party. Thank you for your attention to this matter. DJT.” There should be 535 congressmen meeting tomorrow morning to begin using 25th Amendment to remove him from office. But the Republicans in Congress are cowards. I get that a lot of old boomers have nothing left to live for and don’t care if our youngest die for political reasons. But it’s just sickening.

Under the SAVE Act, you will not be allowed to vote. If you’re required to re-register, you’ll also need to also present a birth certificate or valid passport because the Texas DL doesn’t proven citizens, just residency. As the Act is written, only five states currently have DLs that prove citizenship. [Hidden Content] The good news is that the act doesn’t trigger an automatic need to re-register… so if you were already registered illegally, you won’t be affected by the Save Act. Genius in its own way, I suppose. The next time you have to re-register, you’ll need to provide the extra docs. But you’d best hope that your registration wasn’t one of the ones rejected by the state last fall. [Hidden Content] The scary part is this… Trump said that the democrats can’t win a single race without cheating. I have to assume that he believes that. If he has the federal government seize control of elections like he also stated, I believe that he would immediately order all people who have ever voted in a Democratic primary to re-register, forcing them alone to bear the expense and headache of re-registering in hopes that they won’t be able to vote. The first part is fact, the second is my opinion. If our last election was free and fair, then why is this new legislation so imperative? He intends to weaponize it, just like he’s done with the DHS, FCC, DOJ, SEC, etc…

That was a yes or no question, man… did those FBI agents who were ordered to investigate reports that Trump was holding top secret classified documents deserve to be fired? And if your answer is yes, should their eventual deaths therefore be celebrated? All you have to do is let your conscience take over, then touch your tongue to the roof of your mouth and softly whisper the word “no.” You can do it. You just did… now a little louder.

So those FBI agents ordered to investigate the mishandling of documents deserved to be fired, and their deaths celebrated by Trump and his followers?

What’s the difference? You: “celebrating _____’s death was wrong. Celebrating ______’s death is perfectly okay.” The only difference is that you liked the first person and hated the second. That’s it.

It’s like I asked a couple of weeks ago when Kash Patel fired the fbi agents who investigated Trump’s mishandling of classified documents… you know, the ones he showed to reporters, hid in his bathroom, lied to the fbi and said that they’d all been returned, then had them taken from his possession… all of which was, in fact, criminal, btw. Y’all are angry that law enforcement investigated an alleged criminal act. Hippy specifically… One of my kids was questioned by the Sheriff’s office his senior year in high school. No charges were ever filed. Does that mean that Sgt Johnny from the Orange County SO should have been fired for having the audacity to investigate a reported criminal act? Should I hate her for “coming after my family?” Should I celebrate her death if she passes? “Good… I’m glad she’s dead.” How does that sound? I’m just thankful you weren’t held to the same standards as a police officer to which you hold everybody else in the other side of the aisle. Some people are so far up Trump’s behind that they can’t even recognize the fact they’ve lost touch with reality.

Okay, Ron… so you deserve to die because you used to investigate people in your job as a policeman? That’s your argument?

I didn’t expect any of y’all to condemn it, except AAW. I used to believe that if there ever was another civil war here, it would be “us” vs the socialists. The fact that MAGA hates anyone who isn’t MAGA as proven again by their acceptance of evil from Trump and the way that openly display their hatred towards others convinces me more each day of this. If there is another civil war in America, it will be “us” ridding the planet of maga’s hatred. Quite simply put, I don’t think it’s possible for decent humans to co-exist with MAGA. The hatred is open, and now y’all are okay with killing anybody who isn’t MAGA. Some protestors in Minnesota? They deserve to die for protesting. Some Venezuelans in about boat? They might have drugs on board. Kill them. A nation halfway around the world that doesn’t like us? Gotta kill them before they kill us. Some guy dies who served under four presidents, both Republican and Democrat? “Good. I’m glad he’s dead. I hope he burns in hell for investigating accusations against Trump.” I still believe that there a God in Heaven, and that one day we’ll all stand tall before Him and answer for our sins. I hope that you MAGA supporters have time to reflect on your choices and repent for your sins, one of which is supporting evil like you’re doing today. It’s disgusting, and you won’t make it to Heaven with hatred in your heart.

This is the US President on social media upon hearing of Robert Mueller’s passing. Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP He’s an absolute piece of crap. When will enough be enough for y’all? The refusal to condemn his behavior is the problem. Actually, that’s not true. Y’all support this type thing. Y’all think it’s okay. Its sickening.

That’s the problem… they didn’t approve of him, they hated Kamala. To be specific, they hated Hillary, then they hated trump twice (2022 and 2024), then they hated Kamala even more. If people loved Trump, his approval ratings wouldn’t be in the mid 30s, right? You’ll see how much the people love Trump on the first Tuesday in November. It’s just laughable to me how Trump won the electoral, but not popular vote in 2016. Then he lost both in 2020 because of rampant cheating, lol. Then in 2024, Trump surprisingly wins both the electoral AND popular vote without any cheating, and now we’ve got to pass the SAVE Act because there’s so much cheating. Here’s my thought. I think Trump will try to high tail it out of Iran almost immediately because the war isn’t the old “rally ‘round the red, white, and blue”he thought it would be. There’s nothing like a war in the Middle East to put a damper on his Fourth of July/250th celebration here in a little over three months. But he doesn’t actually want the SAVE Act to pass. Otherwise he wouldn’t have thrown the anti-trans provisions two weeks ago… he wants to make sure that democrats won’t vote for it and it fails. Why? Because he knows that there is no cheating, and he’s about to lose the House and possibly Senate AGAIN. And he knows that besides his agenda being dead on arrival, he’ll certainly face impeachment again. His only course of action to retain power is to stop the midterms from occurring, ostensibly because Congress wouldn’t pass the SAVE Act and stop the cheating. He wants to declare an emergency and stop voting. The sad thing is that half of America is like “cool by me, if daddy thinks so.” All in my opinion.

Shocker. The states that always want to prohibit people from voting tried to make sure as few people could vote as possible. Most red states HATE the Civil Rights Act because it limited their ability to stop people from voting. They’re the same ones who tried to stop the predominantly black “Pews to the Polls” movement here in Texas a couple of years ago. “Oh, we didn’t realize that prohibiting voting on Sunday afternoons would be a big deal. Our bad.” Its funny how Trump said in the SOTU that democrats can’t win a single race unless they cheat, when the simple truth is that the Rs know that they can’t win a single race in America unless they figure out a way to keep Democrat voters from voting. “Election fraud! Election fraud!” Except there’s zero proof of widespread fraud, despite years of investigation by local, state and federal authorities. Zero. “But we have to pass the SAVE Act!” Really? So the last election was stolen, too? When i hear somebody complaining about election fraud, i already know that they’re like my sister’s kids... slapping monopoly board off onto the floor while screaming and crying “you CHEATED!” But people are going to follow their Orange Daddy’s lead, no matter what. Cue somebody:”oh, yeah? How do you explain how Georgia posted 300,000,000,000 votes at 3:00 when the election was already over? CHEATIN’!!!” The Feds seized records a few months ago in GA. If they found anything, certainly Trump would be calling possible evidence “proof” and using it to sell the SAVE Act. But there’s nothing there, because it was all a big fairy tale

He didn’t get played… he screwed up bigly. Either that, or the Dems are a lot smarter than him, right? Masterminding his political takedown via a virus, lol. Lucky for Trump (and unlucky for the rest of us), the uber intelligent deep state Dems (haha) after masterminding the pandemic, turned around and sent Kamala Harris out as their candidate for 2024, enduring a Trump win. So smart in ‘20, but so dumb in 2024, if your version is to be believed. Looking around right now… there’s a good argument to me made that the US and the rest of the world would be in a better place today if that guy hadn’t missed Trump in Pennsylvania. By every measurable criteria, we’re worse now than in January of 2025. That’s not “it takes time to turn a ship around, you can’t expect things to get better overnight,” it’s “he’s screwing up everything that he touches. Again.” And it’s only going to get worse once the Ds sweep back into Congress in November.

I get it. Trump indisputably screwed up with his pandemic response. I don’t hold that against him too harshly-it was uncharted territory. But to act like the pandemic was actually a “deep state” conspiracy (the Plandemic) that marred Trump’s legacy and prevented him from being re-elected is horse hockey. Just own the fact that your guy fumbled the response, combined with a tone-deaf response to the BLM uprising and overall state of discontent in the US (which he was powerless to stop) led to him losing to Biden/Harris. Lucky for him the electorate has a short memory.

The only person that did any raping was Trump. But that’s for another thread. But I agree… Trump should be prosecuted for Operation Warpspeed. Do you agree?

[Hidden Content] Trump doing Trump things… how long until Paxton/Cornyn are at a press conference being named to a “yet to be determined position in the Trump Administration” in exchange for bowing out? Personally, I hope it’s Paxton just to see everybody flip their vote to Cornyn ‘cause their orange daddy tells them to.

So you think there was no virus? Or you think the virus was real, but released as a plan to keep Trump from being re-elected? Or what about it was planned? My belief is that the disease was real, and probably created and released accidentally in China. But there’s no way that some evil group was like “we’ll create this thing, release it, kill a million plus people just so DJT doesn’t get re-elected a year from now over in America.” My opinion goes like this. Trump is a grifter by nature and masterful at marketing himself. The loyalty that he inspires from the less sophisticated among us is astounding. But he’s got zero experience as a bureaucrat, diplomat, etc… and surrounds himself with advisors whose only qualification is loyalty to Trump. He got caught with his pants down when it came time to do things for which he’s unqualified, and acted on instinct… his initial response was to do what he always does-just throw a lot of money at the situation based on his belief that having the most boldness and willingness to spend will help cause him to be successful where other people would hesitate. Except he’s wrong a lot, but those people who buy his merch will never second-guess his actions or hold him accountable when he screws up. There was no Plan in pandemic… he just fumbled in his response. And if you somehow believe that the bad guys’ plan succeeded, why give Trump another chance when he got taken out behind the woodshed the last time that things went wrong bigly? There was no crime against humanity. Diseases come and go. The only “crimes” if you want to call them that is the mountains of money we borrowed and then threw out the window…
