That's the intention; to start a problem so that Trump can escalate.  Plus, he will have the military on hand to do whatever he feels necessary.

I would settle for scaring the shit out of him so bad he flees the country like the coward he is. No mind changing required.

Better journalist would have followed up Lutnick with, "and what do you expect to pay them to turn those tiny screws?"   

Just like Stephanopolous (sp?) dropped the ball yesterday when Bessent or Lutnick or some other dipshit was telling him that prices won't rise from tariffs because demand will fall. Ask him the follow up - what happens to jobs and GDP if demand falls, you dumb motherfucker?

No. It is recent. General Scott Miller, Admiral McRaven. Smart dudes. Well read. Want a reminder?

 

As Clausewitz observed, war is the ultimate expression of politics.  

It's vital that senior military leadership consider the role of the military in government and politics and its relationship to the civil government and leadership.

The notion that our officer corps should be axe-murderers is stupid as fuck.  That's what private soldiers are for.

CNN — 

An image of and quote from Harriet Tubman have been removed from a National Parks webpage about the “Underground Railroad,” following several prominent changes to government websites under the Trump administration.

The National Parks Service webpage for the “Underground Railroad” used to lead with a quote from Tubman, the railroad’s most famous “conductor”, a comparison on the Wayback Machine between the webpage on January 21 and March 19 shows. Both the quote and an image of Tubman have since been removed, along with several references to “enslaved” people and the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850.

The Washington Post first reported on the changes. The webpage now leads with commemorative stamps of various civil rights leaders with text including the phrase “Black/White Cooperation.” Whereas previously, the article started with a description of enslaved peoples’ efforts to free themselves and the organization of the Underground Railroad after the Fugitive Slave Act, the article now starts with two paragraphs that emphasize the “American ideals of liberty and freedom” and do not specifically mention slavery.

His cowardly ass fled to the bunker when BLM protests started up. Take it to 11 and he’ll be begging daddy Putin to send an Ilyushin to pick him up.

Roberts is the Justice assigned to the 4th Circuit, so I believe he'll get the first whack at the motion to stay and will somewhat control the narrative if he refers it to the court as a whole.

It's good that this is coming up first through the 4th Circuit.  There was an argument that Boasberg in DC lacked jurisdiction because the jurisdiction for a habeas corpus petition is that of the trial court or in the absence of one, where the defendant was apprehended.  So this would seem to take away that argument, which got some traction from Ruckus and Guido.

Seriously.  He desperately needs a distraction.  Starting a war is exactly what a simple-minded abject moron would do.

Chief Justice John Roberts pauses order for Trump administration to return man mistakenly deported to El Salvador prison.

 

At this point, I can pretty much write every SCOTUS opinion going forward: "If the King does it, it is by definition legal.  All hail King Trump."

If y'all had any doubt left, it's over, it's done.  We are in a full-on autocracy.  No half-measures, no "gosh, parts of it LOOK a little authoritarian."  We're there.  We've crossed the finish line.

Didn't say how he'd rule, just that it wouldn't go to Ruckus or Guido, initially.  Slim as the hope may be, Roberts offers some overt those two.

The jurisdictional issue is a copout on the bigger issue, whether the executive can exempt itself from judicial review by encanting "foreign relations" or "national security" for what is clearly either an immigration (Article I/Congress) or judicial (Article III/Courts) issue.

It's not about the cost - it's about making a big fucking scene and daring people to protest it so that he can start deploying blackshirts

Revised National Parks Webpage Describes Harriet Tubman As Human Trafficker - The Onion

Quote

WASHINGTON—As the Trump administration continues to alter the version of American history that appears in government publications, sources confirmed Monday that a page on the National Parks website had been revised to describe Harriet Tubman as a human trafficker. “Operating between 1851 and 1862, the notorious human trafficker Harriet Tubman stole approximately 70 African Americans away from their homes in the southern United States,” reads a post on the National Park Service page, which now refers to the Underground Railroad as one of the most prolific human trafficking rings ever to operate on American soil. “Tubman would kidnap people in their sleep, including children, and carry them off to locations as far away as Canada. Despite the best efforts of American lawmen to bring her to justice, Tubman remained at large over the course of 13 separate kidnapping raids into southern states. Even in her later years, she never once expressed remorse for displacing her victims or violating the property rights of their owners.” At press time, the Parks Service had reportedly rewritten its page on Rosa Parks to describe her as a terrorist bus hijacker.

Does the $100 million include all the road repairs that are going to be needed after they roll a bunch of tanks down the streets of DC?
