https://twitter.com/grok/status/1931525451530551639 The claim that Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles is confirmed by sources like Sky News and Fox News, citing violent anti-ICE protests on June 7, 2025. The deployment aims to protect federal officers and restore order. However, California officials, including Governor Newsom, criticize it as federal overreach, arguing it may escalate tensions and infringe on state rights. The issue is divisive, with valid points on both sides.

I know that none of us were alive when it happened, but if people on this forum can support the Jan 6 attack on the Capitol maybe there are some here that will defend what the Japanese did on Dec 7, 1941. Some explanations we may hear (off the top of my head): 1) It was not an act of war, but a normal tourist visit, where they just happened to drop some bombs. 2) They had cameras on the wings and wanted to send some selfies to the folks back home. 3) The attack was a false flag planned by the FBI who had infiltrated the Japanese Air Force. Any other ideas?

Exactly. They keep trying to spin this as a win for Trump and a loser for Democrats, but I just can't see it.

Just to give some much needed context to the creation of this thread. On this forum at that time, there were a whole series of threads entitled something like: "Who here still supports the US Civil War?" and "Who here still supports the D-Day invasion?" etc.(probably at least a half dozen). They were all joking variations of a thread that someone started "Who here supports" (something, can't remember now) and this was my contribution to the list.

Which the transphobes are digging the bottom of the news barrel to find.

I believe I spoke out against it on the PSF, since he was a US citizen. It was a gray area since he had joined a terrorist organization that was plotting attacks against the US IIRC. We don't deny anyone the right due process in this country under the Constitution just because they are a bad person. The concept is, that if Trump is allowed to do that against Garcia then he would have the right to arrest anyone, citizen or non-citizen and throw them in a foreign prison with no charges brought against them or any justification ever given by the government. I am amazed that Conservatives and Republcans support what was done to Garcia because the ends justify the means (even though they are un-constitutional).

As noted earlier we are backing the concept of due process in the Constitution, not Abrego Garcia, per se. I would imagine that most Americans understand the real issues involved in this case. And it should be noted that police never charged Abrego Garcia with domestic violence.

Translation. Trump lies a lot. He was being completely disengenous that he couldn't bring Garcia back. Now he has egg on his face.

You edited out the part where I noted that I am against trans males competeing against women. Still this so seldom happends that it is not newsworthy IMO and certainly not enough for each incident merit its own thread.

I am on record saying that trans (male) should not be allowed to compete against girls/women. But I don't get the obsession of starting new threads about this constantly in this forum.

We are not cheering for the guy, we are cheering for following the Constituion. And they have yet to prove that he is a "human trafficker"

The one with falsified information that they probably can't back up with any proof at the hearing when he comes back?

https://x.com/EdKrassen/status/1931068691849814337 BREAKING: Kilmar Abrego Garcia is coming back to the the United States from El Salvador in order to face due process. HUGE LOSS FOR TRUMP! HUGE WIN FOR THE CONSTITUTION!

I specifically asked for proof to show that the definintion of racism had offically changed and what I got instead was "defining racism beyond its dictionary meaning"

There is already one thread on this SCOTUS ruling. Why do we need a second?

If Trump is in the Epstein files, none of the MAGA folks will care.

Immigrants trying to do the right thing and keep their scheduled appointment, then get arrested for deportation. This will sit well with the Latinos that voted for Trump, who were not expecting he would go after friends, family and neighbors they know.

I don't know where in the world you come up with this stuff from. Any proof that the term racist was officially amended to include the delimter of "power" (whatever the hell that means). And I agree 100% that racism is racism and I have stated it is nonsense to say that Blacks can't be racist (which Democrats and members of Congress have not been saying).

No, it hasn't. The claim that "Minorites can't be racist" is an absurd statement. No one believes that outside a few fringe people on the left. The only ones repeating this meme are the MAGA folks and Republicans falsly claiming it is a popular belief among Democrats/liberals (but never can provide a link or any proof to back it up).

No, "society" has not created a false notion that minorities can't be racist, lol. Yes, a couple folks who made a stupid public statement to that effect, but it never was a adopted as a popular meme by Democrats and those on the left (despite MAGA/GOP claims to the contrary).
