The fuck is the first amendment?
Hey acceleratiionists and people who Harris “wasn’t good enough” for, remember that you could’ve helped stop this shit before it even happened. Now people are going to suffer and die under this regime that you helped bring to power
Them: Don’t care, at least my eggs are cheaper…wait
Them: Don’t care, I showed America that their two party system sucks…wait
Then: Don’t care, voting doesn’t matter anyway…wait
Them: As long as it’s hurting the right kind of people more
Objection!
Overruled.
Those people are far too stupid to grasp the mistake they made.
Ignorance truly is bliss.
Until you’re thrown in an oven.
Hey DNC, stop blaming the voters you told to stay home.
So, no blame goes to Harris for not doing easy to do things, to get voters to want to vote for her?
All blame goes to the voters given an impossible choice?
There’re the same people. Flexing for the algorithm, just different ones.
Supporting people is lawful.
Whether the laws he passes are legitimate, up for debate.
His EOs aren’t laws. That takes Congress.
It’s a good thing we gave his party the majority in both houses of Congress, right?
Yeah but they don’t have a filibuster proof majority in the Senate.
Executive orders only effect federal organizations. Public schools are all state officiated. I don’t know a single teacher that falls under his purview. Aka any teacher punished should win in court without issue unless the courts wish to completely illegitimate themselves.
Ive seen one idea that its mostly focused on red states with so called nickname laws, and encouraging an expansion of said laws. Basically putting in federal resources to help enforce stupid state laws, I suspect that it would be ineffective at best though. Federal law enforcement per agency is probably roughly comparable to state agencies, just as an example the are avout 10,000 special FBI agents and about 38,000 employees total for comparison theres about 6,500 CHP officers cant find the total employees though. What im saying is that local and county will probably have greater enforcement capabilities per person on average meaning this is pointless at best.
Officer, arrest your neighbor and punish your cities kids because the orange man said everyone around you are bad people. How many of your neighbors have been shot by these migrants he speaks of, 0. How many of these teachers have taught your family, many.
Also local officials generally have to live in roughly the same area they are policing meaning even if they arent policing their neighbors they are still well within find out distance. Federal officials can be shuffled around, Jim the cop in Omaha Nebraska may legit get fired bombed if he pisses too many folks off.
Agreed. I can say it out loud. If a Federal official invades your homeland and threatens your people, it’s best to fill them with lead. Your neighbors are your neighbors. Those feds who betrayed you and your neighbors, are not.
I was born and raised in this country, my parents born here too. I haven’t met a neighbor who doesn’t deserve to be here. Fuck ICE, fuck this god damned Orange shit stain. I say shit stain, because shit itself has value. I can feed crops with it. The stain, worthless
completely illegitimate themselves.
Uh…I hate to break it to you, but that happened during Trump’s first term.
Well when a turtle hands you a basket full of presents and you’re a fascist cunt, things fall into place. Bitch McDonalds should be one of the first to be aborted.
There’s nothing unlawful about helping a trans person do their homework
No I recently heard someone say that it was a requirement by law to start being discriminatory. This was coming directed at a librarian about the fact they had books pertaining to the positivity of trans non binary … But had failed to attain any counter since libraries have to have a equal representation to a counter opinion available. And as to why the library wasn’t following the law and now removing said books from its shelves at that moment since it’s now law to be discriminatory. And yes they mentioned it being a requirement that you discriminate and report nondiscriminatory behavior i … When the fuck are we right now is this Stalin era russia?
Being an educator in this day and age seems so difficult, we are taught all the studies and theories of healthy child development, how to promote healthy social emotional learning, but we must fight parents and increasely the law to maintain a safe, healthy social environmental layer.
Good educators are already beaten down from so many things and have become rare, but I know most of my colleagues and friends have no intention of bending knee to this and policies aimed at hurting students we fight for, and I desperately hope this sentiment is shared by many across our country.
That’s the point, that’s what they want and they want good teachers to be sick of it and leave so they can either put some uncertified person in your place or none at all and keep education for private schools. Trumpy said it himself, he loved the uneducated. It’s sadly all part of their plan to keep critical thinkers at bay so they can do whatever they want and nobody bats an eye.
Keep people uneducated, and feed them misinformation. yes, it is very unfortunate that is the federal policy for k-12 education.
To quote my maga father in law when discussing cutting funding to schools " I want them kids as ignorant as me"
Soo trashy.
I desperately hope this sentiment is shared by many across our country.
I’ll leave this here…from 3 days ago: Teacher asks ICE to raid his school, says many students ‘don’t even speak English’
Good educators are a rare and dying breed. Unfortunately probably a lot who either openly or secretly harbour similar feelings.
The good ones usually quit before they get tenure. They don’t get paid nearly enough for all the shit they put up with.
yeah, I know all customer facing jobs have big cons, and working fast food isn’t easy by any means, but I see McDonald’s hiring ads and sometimes I wonder, 25% raise and far less likely to get bit? almost tempting. I would probably still have to talk to people as if they are children.
Thanks, I wasn’t depressed enough, but that really did the trick!
there are many more fully resisting each purge attempt. shits getting dark af right now, but dispair cannot be an option.
get out and find community. I did a thing two days ago. stopped by one of the only houses in my neighborhood that openly opposed the trump collective before the election. let them know I (and my fam) were here if they needed anything. we shared ideas and history. face to face. in realtime. and we will be checking up on each other moving forward.
dispairdespair👍
That was, thankfully, a substitute teacher. Which means they don’t necessarily have any education in education.
Thats not to say there aren’t scumbags just like them as full time employees, just noting not a regular teacher in that case.
h2h👍
Happy cake day!
What if we just kill him
Surely it is THIS that will help those grocery prices…
hey look, it’s the reason squid (and others) left
Dipshit Donnie, your executive orders are not laws. They also only apply to federal government. As far as I know, we don’t have federal schools except for the armed forces academies.
They’ll probably end up making federal aid contingent on being assholes. Just like how Reagan coerced the states into 21 year old drinking age by withholding highway funds.
It works like this:
- Teach at a public school
- That school receives funding directly or indirectly from federal programs under the executive branch, including the Department of Education
- DEI support disqualifies institutions from receiving Federal funds
- Supporting DEI and trans rights while receiving Federal funds counts as defrauding the US government
- DOJ takes up the case
While EOs are not laws, they have the potential to do massive amounts of damage because most of the government runs on agencies under control of the Executive. And while universities and public schools are not federal, they receive shit tons of funds through grants, contracts, and subsidies from a wide array of federal agencies (see: academic panic at the NSF and NIH halting grant review and funding as a result of Trump’s recent orders).
We’re deciding right now how much power Executive Orders have.
It had strict definitions for its use, now the president is trying to stretch that power further.
How many people comply without being physcially forced is what determines how much power he truely has.
How many people comply without being physcially forced is what determines how much power he truely has.
Bingo.
So far America appears to be overflowing with pussies who are willing to bend the knee to an anti-democratic felon rapist.
Our ancestors are weeping.
How many people comply without being physically forced is what determines how much power he truly has.
That’s why the reduction of protections for federal employees was so important to implementing this phase. A lot of people have already been fired or reassigned which makes it really difficult for them to “do” anything.
The ones they’re trying to get to resign can’t be fired due to unions and they know it
That is exactly what I was saying how Reagan coerced states to raise drinking age.
Right on. I was just outlining how they’d probably make it personal against the teachers.
Laws have actual words though. You can’t just make up a fraud case. You have to prove to judge and jury beyond a reasonable doubt the law was violated.
I know this. You know this. The judges know this. The jury knows this.
This does damage by subjecting the teachers to suspensions, trials, legal fees, etc. to the point that they take a plea bargain or resign. It makes the schools hyper-sensitive.
If the courts don’t throw these cases out immediately, then the tactic worked.
Trump answered a voter’s question about failing school systems by saying, “No transgender, no operations—you know, they take your kid—there are some places, your boy leaves for school, comes back a girl. Okay? Without parental consent.” He added, “At first, when I was told that was actually happening, I said, you know, it’s an exaggeration. No: it happens. It happens. There are areas where it happens.”
Good lord. In a world where people will believe something like this, what hope is there really.
This is insanity
“Love and acceptance unlawful in Trump’s America,” better title.
How long do we have to wait for impeachment?
Have you noticed how nothing is being passed through the house or senate? He’s not getting impeached. It happened twice before with no results.
Yeah, I don’t know why I expect safety mechanisms to still work. It’s an adjustment getting used to the collapse of a democracy
Him croaking of old age is a more likely outcome.
Dictators are never removed by peaceful means. You can’t vote them out. You can’t impeach them.
Of we don’t ban trans people, then Trump could end up mistakenly raping a dude, and we can’t have that! What would he even grab them by?
A subtle aspect is that many of these people do like fucking trans women, but those trans women need to be vulnerable and disposable. When job discrimination is legal/encouraged, trans people turn to prostitution.
A lot of the conservative Christian machine is really a massive D/s kink. Punishing women for having sex, murdering trans women for making their dick hard.
D/s kink? I don’t understand the acronym
Dominance/submission.
So much of the actions of Trump, Musk, McConnell - it’s a power fetish. That’s why it often seems counterintuitive or pointlessly cruel. There’s an erotic thrill from being able to control others and to hurt them.
I believe it’s known as a bussy.
I feel like a screenshot of your comment (without context for best effect) would make a great post somewhere
“No transgender, no operations—you know, they take your kid—there are some places, your boy leaves for school, comes back a girl. Okay? Without parental consent.” He added, “At first, when I was told that was actually happening, I said, you know, it’s an exaggeration. No: it happens. It happens. There are areas where it happens.”
Gotta wonder if he’s manufacturing reality or if he’s also caught up in a manufactured reality.
I can’t believe there’s a single person who believes that children are being snuck into hospitals to just have a quick 20,000 dollar surgery that takes months to fully recover from during lunch and sneaking them home without anyone noticing
If they had critical thinking skills, we wouldn’t have Trump as president.
He knows his out is now “I saw it on TV”
It’s definitely both.
He’s a conman by nature, not by intelligence.
He inherently knows he has to manufacture lies to get what he wants, but he’s very clearly not an actually intelligent person and you can clearly tell sometimes that he’s 100% bought into some conspiracy theories, the same way any dumb person would. The guy’s brain is mostly fried, but the conman in his nature is still there. Will be until he’s 6 feet under.
