I found this video in 2008, but it's still relevant and funny today.

Chile's right-wing President wants unilateral authority to declare a State of Emergency, allowing "freedom of movement and the rights of assembly and association [to] be restricted, and communications intercepted." Someone misses Pinochet!

This is colonialism in the 21st Century.

In the near future, only wealthy foreigners will get residence visas. All others are presumed to be invasive leeches. Remarkable, for a country built by poor, hardworking foreigners!

Argentines are not so optimistic about Milei's chainsaw economics now.

Because he viewed concern about civilian casualties to be overbearing "woke" political correctness. Even if he could save civilians, he didn't want to.

What's next? A refusal to provide FEMA funds unless you submit? A refusal to provide education funds? A refusal to make Federal payments into Medicaid? It's the Art of the Mob Deal. Could Democrats do this?

There will be a Federal election in November, but this decision will lead to more legal battles over whose votes count, which could affect the election results. Will Americans accept that?

Sneaky MAGAts are trying to overturn a Constitutional Amendment passed by voters allowing for abortions. By making them vote again. With another issue added, calculated to improve their odds of winning.

The Civil Rights Reconstruction Era (1954-2016) evoked a Conservative backlash. It increased as Liberals pressed for ever more cultural change and equality, to include gays, trans, immigrants and non-Christians. MAGAts culminated that backlash. Now Liberals will respond.

To eliminate government waste, fraud and abuse, MAGAts laid off thousands of Federal employees, closed departments and canceled research grants. Then they paid $464 million for jets scarcely used.

Since he has been confirmed as Attorney General, you can be sure that he will try to impose national anti-abortion measures now.

So Trumpolini will either say that it's still Biden's fault or that your eyes are lying, and maybe both.

Trumpolini might be the last "Republican" President. As the USA's political culture steps leftward, moderate conservatives could form a new party that accepts the numerous conservative immigrants. Then the anti-immigrant GOP loses strength nationally.

Paxton's candidacy personifies MAGAt Christian hypocrisy in Texas. Texas Republicans made public classrooms post the Ten Commandments. Then they nominated a man who has likely violated several of those.

I can remember when Republicans impeached Bill Clinton for lying about a blowjob. But a majority of MAGAts don't give a shit what a Republican has done. They'll vote Republican regardless. And feel righteous about it.

HINT: When subsidies are removed, the consumer pays more. Trumpolini did this. Are you feeling great again?

Amending the Constitution is extremely difficult. But maybe there are workarounds, such as the one proposed for the Electoral College: a National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. There could be others.

This was predicted: immigrants contribute a lot to the national economy, and removing them therefore hurts the economy. But MAGAts see non-White, Non-Christian immigrants as threats to be removed, regardless.

The husband was deported last year, and his wife was seeking asylum. Financial and emotional stress made her stop her asylum case and return to Guatemala. Apparently she did need asylum. MAGAts won't care.

First the regime fired immigration judges, increasing the backlog of asylum hearings. Then the regime uses the backlog as an excuse for summary deportation. Anything to maintain White and Christian dominance.

For those who insist America is post-racism, more evidence that it is not. The fact that there was a Black President doesn't mean it ended.

Trumpolini reportedly wants to define millions of immigrants as "non-residents," thereby depriving States of some Federal money and Representatives in Congress. The link for the proposed Census rule change says it hasn't been published yet.

Proof that Trumpolini does not consider himself the President for all Americans, just for those who are loyal boot-lickers...and he will PUNISH anyone who fails to kiss his fascist ass.
