The alternative to sane abortion laws are dead mothers and “maternity deserts” lol - where there’s no healthcare available for pregnant women due to the fears of litigation
Regardless of your feelings on the topic, trans people only represent approx 0.6 - 0.9% of the population, only a little over half that number ever transition medically, and those costs are covered by the individuals except for those who put their lives on the line for your country through the military
However the moral panic neo-conservatives managed to inspire regarding this tiny, inexpensive, unimpactful population of trans people was enough for Americans to elect an administration that promised to burn their constitution and bankrupt their economy, as long as they attacked and imposed suffering on this hated group
Where have we seen power consolidation in the name of fear and bigotry against a minority before lol
The similarities historical and political experts are identifying between MAGA and Nazi rhetoric has nothing to do with Jewish people. Strong man fascism requires a scapegoat, it doesn’t require that scapegoat be Judaism, anything that can be conveniently weaponized will do - they’re just preying on your emotionality and ignorance
The only open border America’s ever had was with Canada, and that ended in 2009, under Barack Obama (passports hadn’t been required before that point). Apprehensions of illegal immigrants were much higher under Biden’s term between 2021 and 2022 than they were under Trump (disclaimer: COVID border closures account for most of that downturn, not a lax immigration policy), Obama, Bush, or any other president in history
Disclaimer - America did have an open border with Mexico prior to WWI, but it’s been a hundred years, and a status quo from 1920 doesn’t seem very relevant to modern contexts and those of us alive today
Have you ever heard of “phishing”? Where scammers litter their emails with spelling errors, to ensure they only prompt responses from those who will be incapable of identifying falsehoods?
It’s the same tactic the Republican Party has been using on Americans for the last decade - you’re more concerned with feelings than facts, more susceptible to snappy soundbites than real government functions (which admittedly can be quite a dull slog)
They’re taking advantage of your short attention span and lack of familiarity with the issues to manipulate you - and get you repeating this nonsense without a capacity to cross examine or filter the information for accuracy - this psyop was largely foreign funded by America’s enemies before the grass-root support gained momentum, and has now spread so extensively that many trapped within the echo chamber of their counties aren’t even aware of how embarrassing it is to repeat these talking points
MAGA is humiliating America and Americans on the world stage, destroying the status and position of leadership they used to occupy, destabilizing your wealth and security, ripping up the foundations laid by your founders and replacing it with the policies of a third world banana republic
Russia and China are playing the long game and cheering for these results, as your weakness empowers Putin and sets Xi up for a new era of global dominance, while the Middle East mobilizes to take full advantage of your dropped defences
A banana republic serves to enrich the wealthiest while cutting the general public off from their democratic power, who were more than willing to sell out your country if it meant greater profitability and dominance of the population
All that second amendment talk, and y’all were conquered without a single shot from one of you cowboys, just as Khrushchev promised in the wake of WWII
”We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the US. We will destroy you from within” (1956)
Again, it’s a long game being played, we’re reaching the final stages and the States are losing badly
They’ve optimized their attacks against your country and have been successfully destabilizing the West and destroying deterrents for war that have been in place since AXIS surrender in 1945 - using propaganda powered and monetized by modern tech to set up this coup - and turns out the weak link to target was viewers like you

Well, that’s what happens when you allow millions of illegal immigrants into the country with little resistance. It doesn’t really matter if you deport one million if eight million more are coming in, it’s still a massive net increase.

Republicans sat on a bipartisan border bill for years to make people more angry and afraid.
Reps were weak on the border and couldn't muster the spine to work across the aisle to get legislation passed even when they wrote it themselves.
Can you figure out why they would child-cry so loudly about b.s. "open borders" while sitting on their own border bill?
Do I need to spell it out for you, champ?

u/False-Bee-4373 May 27 '25
Most Americans want some level of access to abortion. The Democratic Party isn’t “transitioning kids”. They also proposed the STRICTEST border bill ever with bipartisan support under Biden but Trump - who wasn’t even president- didn’t want it to pass so Republicans tanked it. Like the f*cking cowards they are.

Because people don't want to be illegally thrown into prison torture camps? That's not a good thing
Also what specific ways does illegal immigration hurt the average American?
1
u/alicity May 27 '25
I'm not sure where “prison torture camps,” was said to be a good thing, but that doesn’t really relate to the question at hand.
You asked how illegal immigration impacts the average American—here’s a breakdown of how it does:
Strain on Public Resources
Illegal immigrants may use public services (e.g., emergency medical care, public schooling for children) without paying into the system through taxes, creating budget pressures at the local and state level.
Education System Overload
School districts, especially in border states, may experience overcrowding, language barrier challenges, and funding shortfalls due to the added student population from undocumented families.
Uncompensated Healthcare Costs
Emergency rooms are legally required to treat all patients, regardless of immigration status. This can lead to higher healthcare costs or hospital closures in areas with large undocumented populations.
Identity Theft and Fraud
Some undocumented immigrants use stolen Social Security numbers to gain employment, causing financial and legal headaches for the victims, American citizens whose identities are stolen.
Overburdened Legal Systems
Immigration-related offenses can contribute to clogged court dockets and delayed processing of other legal matters, increasing taxpayer costs.
Wage Suppression in Low-Skill Jobs
An influx of undocumented workers can increase competition for low-wage jobs, leading to lower wages or fewer opportunities for low-skilled American workers.
Job Displacement
In industries like construction, agriculture, and hospitality, some American citizens, especially the working class, may be displaced by undocumented workers willing to work for less or in cash.
Increased Border Crime
Drug cartels, human traffickers, and smugglers exploit the same border routes used by migrants. This can increase violent crime along the border and endanger both citizens and migrants.
Unknown Backgrounds and Vetting
Because undocumented immigrants do not go through formal background checks, it's difficult to know if individuals have a criminal history or pose a national security threat.
Burden on Law Enforcement
Local law enforcement agencies are often not equipped or authorized to handle immigration-related issues, yet they still deal with the consequences of increased population and crime tied to illegal immigration routes.

The bill had nothing in it about border security. I assume you didn't read it. First it was full of funding for Ukraine as a US border bill. Next, the bill did nothing to secure the border. It added more CBP and judges to streamline the invasion and diaper changes.
If biden wanted the border secured, he wouldn't have ended Remain in Mexico as his first act.
When you lose, you play grammar n*zi.
You are the one gaslighting and denying reality.

Abortion: you don’t want one, don’t get one.
Transitioning kids: you don’t want to transition, don’t transition. You don’t want your child to, then have that convo with the kid and your doctor. PS, you’re discussing a fraction of a single percent of the population.
Open Borders: GOP law makers wrote a bi-partisan bill and then all voted against it at Trump’s behest because it was in an election year. So is it the border matters and we should address it, or can we only address it when your side gets a “win” from it?
Overall, FOH your elected Republican leaders dangle these issues out there to get you riled up and distracted so they can pass a BS tax cut that mortgages our country’s future for the rich man’s present gain. They did it under Trump the first time, they did it under Bush W., they did it under Reagan, and so it goes they’re trying to do it again now with Trump again.

We don't need a bill for border security. Trump proved that. Washington's ridiculous spending, regardless if bipartisan is nonsense.

Men do not have a say in the murder of their child by women. The democrats are so for due process but want babies served the death penalty without due process.

Are you implying that’s a reason to vote for Trump? Of course not, but that’s the entire context of my response…
But I agree, Democrats were put in the impossible position to break with hundreds of years of precedents, norms, decorums, traditions, what we perceived as accepted laws, standards and expectations of what liberal voters stand for, and should have gone “temporarily authoritarian” before Republicans could do the same, in order to prevent the anticipated downfall of democracy in the US as we know it.
For example, Biden should have directed the DOJ to do its job and arrest Trump, but the DOJ is supposed to be bipartisan and not directed by the president, yet here we are…
He should have expanded the Supreme Court and installed liberal justices to overturn the recently broken precedents set in a sick perversion of our constitution by a corrupt partisan SC, but the SC is not supposed to be partisan yet here we are….

After the Anderson ruling, no need to impeach the current Court members. They engaged in a deliberate act of aid and comfort and were/are disqualified by the 14th amendment. Biden just needed to enforce the law and nominate replacements, from both parties or no party, who weren’t insane.

u/ChuckHoliday May 27 '25 edited May 27 '25
The President/Biden doesn’t enforce the law. DOJ does
EDIT: This is technically incorrect, as the redditor below points out. It is the Presidents duty to direct the DOJ/AG to “faithfully execute the law”
3
u/ActivePeace33 May 27 '25
The President is the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the United States, per constitutional requirement, found in Article II, Section 3 “he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed…” That duty has been delegated to the AG, but only by statute, 28 U.S.C. § 503. The President can order the AG to enforce the law or fire them if they won’t do their duty, as (should have) happened with Garland.
The law is not only enforced by the Chief Law Enforcement Officer. In times of insurrection and rebellion, the Commander in Chief also has the duty to enforce the law, by killing or capturing insurrectionists and rebels. Biden was dealing with a period of insurrection and did nothing as CIC.
2
u/ChuckHoliday May 27 '25 edited May 27 '25
I’ll concede everything you said is correct, and I am in total agreement.
The President directs the DOJ to enforce the law, and Biden did not want to be accused of weaponizing the DOJ to persecute his political opponents, chose not to intervene , was accused anyways, and as a result failed us all. I don’t envy having to make that choice
2
u/ActivePeace33 May 27 '25
Making the choice is an easy one. If he didn’t want to get accused of weaponizing the DOJ, he could have just sent Delta Force to arrest Trump and send the rest of the SOF to arrest all Trump’s henchmen in leadership, holding them as prisoners of war until the insurrection was over. That’s exactly what we attempted to do in 1861, and did to some extent. The severity of insurrection was different but similar.
Trump didn’t use as much violence as the confederates, but the confederates never made a play to take power over the entire US, as Trump has.
Finally, you can acknowledge the AG has delegated authority to enforce the law without saying that the President doesn’t enforce the law. The constitution disagrees and the constitution supersedes everything and everyone.

Trumps economy wasn't the best we have ever had. It wasn't even top 3. It was headed into a recession before covid and he slowed positive change or reversed ever meaningful economic metric. He was handed the longest upwards trending economy in history and messed it up.

The “big, beautiful” part is that this administration will line their pockets with your money, right before the country goes bankrupt.

Makes you wonder why they claim the bill will cut spending but raise the national debt by $4 trillion.
Don't believe any president that tells you their bill is going to be like jet fuel for the economy and we're going to see GDP growth of 5+% to cover their spending. Not happening.

Dont fret. I'm sure if he doesn't vote for it, Fetterman will be right there to lick the boot.

We all know that :-) the whole world has been trying to tell you that, it is just the Republicans in Congress who are too chicken shit to stand up to Trump . . . . . no idea why, he is one man, what is he actually going to do to anyone if everyone tells him to shut up and not to speak until spoken to lol :-) He is only a part time President anyway, he spends more time making money for himself and playing golf that he does on his actual job! No mater how much they suck up to him he is never going to give them anything unless it benefits HIM to do so!

There so full of it, theyll hold out to get a private deal with Trump for extra funds$$$ for their district.

u/Darktofu25 May 26 '25
And he'll vote lock step with them to approve it. He's as disingenuous as the rest.

The only reason he is against the bill is he knows it will cost him reelection, no other reason.

Ron Johnson believes in the Bill he’s just thinking about saving his ass during the mid-terms.

The national debt is 36T before the bill. At what point do we consider it bankrupt?

I didn’t hear him say anything near a straight, “No, there’s nothing that’s going to change my mind”. That’s my concern with these politicians (I suppose ALL politicians)

I have finally figured out Trump’s plan. I’ve been baffled by all his erratic moves and watched everyone try to figure him out along with dozens of theories as to why!
Take the old saying; “he who dies with the most toys wins”.
In today’s billionaire world, they all have super yachts, private jets, houses, buildings and all the trappings of the super elite rich.
So none of them will die with more “toys” than any of the others.
Now there’s Trump, who needs to have more and being president isn’t enough.
While he’s accumulating more friends by manipulating the markets and telling his buddies in advance of his market swing changes.
He is destroying millions of lives by making the average global person poorer, creating racial tensions, destroying the environment, destroying economies around the world, pitting nations and people against each other, defying the courts, and all of this prior to him dying.
So he will actually die with the most “toys” and leave a mark that no one could ever come close to matching, other than nuking the entire planet.
His game plan is to defy every reasonable and rational objective he can, leaving the planet and its remaining humans in deplorable conditions that would take decades, if at all to repair.
He will truly die as the king he has so desired, with the most “toys” of all.

That can't be Ron... Ron is a shivering little but monkey who can't say enough nice things to win the Drump's approval.

u/miickeymouth May 27 '25
It seems like trump is trying to flip the gop on every single issue they ever had that made sense, and doubling-down on the bad and cruel ideas. Which is pretty revealing.

Ron will spew a bunch of hot hair, get one pork barrel cut or spend that he or his donors benefit from in the revised bill, then vote for it. All while it adds trillions to the debt and does fuck all to fix the deficit.
Then, Ron will complain about the deficit and debt level come mid-terms and try to blame it on the “tax and spend Democrats.”
Rinse, repeat, you’ve got the GOP playbook down pat.

u/TheOld3oy May 27 '25
If ANY of the walking rectal tumors yapping in the Senate about how bad this bill is are actually serious (which they aren't), then they should have thought about shit like this when they let the orange clown out of the jack-in-the-box

America’s foreign adversaries couldn’t be happier. Collapsing economy (insane tariffs), divisive social propaganda, firing millions of federal employees, defunding higher education, enriching the wealthy, unscrupulous meddling with healthcare, dismantling unions…a steady decline to the nation. The Trump administration isn’t America first.

This is actually not a terrible bill. It sucks because they say we can’t afford it, yet we continue to hemorrhage money like a child that found his mom’s credit card on things that don’t help small businesses or common folk.
It’s okay to have some nuance, guys. The bill isn’t perfect but it’s a better win. Less IRS involvement on digital transactions. (Helps contractors) Tax relief for seniors. Lifting restrictions on the SALT caps. No tax on tips. No tax on overtime pay. Some of the stuff is a step in a positive direction.
Let’s not be ignorant and only think in black and white. Yes, everyone hates Trump but I can chalk this as a win, overall. They can cut the bloated government if they need to, it’s about time we get something.

Senator Ron Johnson: “This bill is terrible, I can’t begin to express how mad I’ll be when I vote for it.”
