What? That a bunch of far right idiots call themselves the Proud boys?

 

[BrokenWing]

The lawsuit filed on Friday alleges the five leaders of the Proud Boys were subject to "egregious and systemic abuse of the legal system"

Like being pardoned?

OK, well while we sort all this out, you knobheads can go back to jail.

I wonder what the venn diagram between Proud Boys and ICE agents is?
I'm guessing concentric circles

Interesting that these are the first to try it, these bellends FAFO'd, but there were plenty of sentences that were brutal, judges over sentencing against prosecutors recommendations, using 'lol' on social media after the fact as a reason to extend prison sentences etc, FBI excelating reasons for arrest etc...

At least if it had been "The Wild Boys" they would have had a theme tune.

Even The West Side Boys had a story…

I suppose The Proud Boys do have a march…

So, Trump has facilitated Garcias return to the USA.

He will stand trial next Friday in charges of trafficking undocumented immigrants across the country on behalf of ms13.

This poor bugger was firstly the victim of an admin error and deported, before being used by the Democrats for political reasons. Now there's an environment where prosecutors cannot allow him to go free, Democrats will abandon his cause, and he'll more than likely get convicted and sent back to the El Salvador super prison...

A living representation of why the Democrats are losing the battle against Trump, fighting the wrong fights, and giving him easy wins!

Pretext for a police state isn't it?
Find a loophole
Pick an "enemy" state
Provoke a response
Mislabel the response
Exploit loophole
Send in the military
Scare other states into submission

If I remember my GCSE history correctly (unlikely), it's called "Kristallnacht"

Trump's been watching Andor S2 too!

Joe Rogans reaction to Trump v Musk was quite funny. He's sat with the head of the FBI and they briefly mention it and move on. Thought he was really serious about those Epstein files?

OPINION: What Is A Fact? Unfortunately, In Court, It Is Whatever Donald Trump Says It Is

The “political question” doctrine affords the president deference on factual assertions in court, presenting grave dangers to the republic.

Question is, will they have to sleep in car parks and bushes once deployed?
