  • Graugnard said while he supports government efficiency, he “didn’t vote for it to be implemented the way it’s being implemented.”

    So, “they’re not hurting the right people!”

    “I voted confidently with the intent that it was going to be done in a way that was technocratic and efficient and a bit more rational, and that’s not what happened,” Graugnard said.

    Someone’s not paying attention.

    Still, Graugnard said he does not regret voting for Trump.

    “I still support all of the goals of the administration, and I think that I can respectfully disagree with the way those things are carried out,” he said.

    There it is! Way to go, you dipshit bootlicker.


  • “I was telling the officer, if I can give him ID, but he said just keep my hands up, not moving,” Machado told Quiñonez. “After that, he told me to get out of the car and put the handcuffs on me. And then he went to me and said how did I get into this country and if I was waiting for a court date or if I have any case. And I told him I was an American citizen, and he looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, ‘Do you believe him?’”

    Just a fun game to smile at for ICE. Pull an American citizen out of their car at gunpoint for being brown, whoopsies! Fucking bastards



  • I’m always reminded of this story when I think of Leopards ate my face

    On Monday, the New York Times’s Patricia Mazzei published a dispatch from Marianna, Florida — a small, politically conservative town that depends on jobs from a federal prison and thus has been deeply hurt by the government shutdown. In the piece, Marianna residents grapple with the fact that President Donald Trump, who most residents support, is playing a role in the pain created by lost wages.

    Most Marianna residents support Trump’s border wall, his key demand in the shutdown fight, and don’t blame him for the fight. But Crystal Minton, a secretary at the prison who is also a single mother caring for disabled parents, had a somewhat different reaction — one that reveals an essential truth about the core Trump’s political appeal.

    “I voted for him, and he’s the one who’s doing this,” Minton told Mazzei. “I thought he was going to do good things. He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.”

    Crystal had her face eaten and I’m partly sad the leopard didn’t keep going because Crystal sounds like she probably deserves it
