Whether its good or not is up for debate, but where are people getting this idea that ICE is just snatching up any random brown person?

Ive had multiple otherwise very conservative people in my life parrot this talking point and I have no idea where it comes from.

Wouldn't they be talking about those people instead of making Kilmar Garcia, a completely obvious gang member seeking asylum because other gangs wanted to kill him, their main guy to represent the movement??

Does anyone have ANY evidence they're actually doing that? It's not something I would be surprised about but I don't understand how even conservatives believe it sometimes when every time the news does a story on it it's a very obvious case of illegal immigrants.
 
If you can see the bottom of the foundation and the dirt below it then the building is basically already structurally compromised.
Heh, ummm, so, out of curiosity, does this bit of wisdom also apply to driveway add-on pads alongside an existing driveway? Because if it does I have some calls to make on my parents' behalf before their house disappoints them.
 
We're actually going to get Blue Texas are we?

What's he even going to do about it besides kvetch on Truth Social? His credibility as a leader is shot and the midterms are going straight to the Democrats no matter what, in no small part thanks to his cratering approval ratings.

He still has yet to walk back his statement in the Laura Ingram interview where he openly called Americans stupid and talentless and called for infinity street shitters to take their jobs.

The heavier whatever it is the more of a problem it is. Are you really saying someone really just poured concrete into a form on top of dirt and now the dirt next to the pad is below the bottom of the pad? As in you could use your fingers to dig out a bit of dirt and get them under the concrete?

For reference in broad strokes the steps to build a concrete pad correctly would be:
Removing the top soil
Compacting the sub soil
Putting in some kind of fill or aggregate
Set up form
Pour concrete
Agitate + smooth

NGO grifters/talking heads, DNC politicians being paid by NGOs and other outside sources, and pushers of replacement say it and the MSM and the network of left wing freaks like Kulinski, TYT, Pakman, Sisson, etc echo it.

If you ever meet anyone who believes this, don't try to correct them. Just tell them they're to blame for letting it get so bad that it's necessary & justified.

Thomas Crooks used they/them pronouns and posted threats of political violence and violent art on his secret social media accounts before he attempted to assassinate President Trump, according to sources who shared the suspected messages with The Post.

The loner sniper — who grazed Trump in the ear, killed a beloved firefighter and critically wounded two other Trump supporters — also apparently had a “muscle mommy” fetish, and repeatedly searched for videos about female bodybuilders and muscular women.

The Post’s Miranda Devine reported on the newly unearthed online activity on Monday.

Crooks had two possible accounts on DeviantArt, a site that hosts fan art and has become notorious for its community of furries — people who identify as anthropomorphized animal characters and/or are sexually attracted to them.

One of the DeviantArt accounts linked to Crooks shared just one post, a repost of a towering, muscular female bodybuilder and a slight man in his underwear.

This is not what he's talking about, he's talking about the Zionist concept of the New Jew and arguing that Shapiro's diasporic method of arguing is losing Israel support. Don't justify that Israel exists through argument, say fuck you we exist, I don't have to justify shit to you and we will destroy our enemies regardless of your opinion.
(Emphasis added.) I can understand his point about li'l Ben, but isn't the part I highlighted the raving loony Mark Levin's position? He certainty doesn't seem to be winning many friends for Israel from the youngest Gen Xers, Millenials, or Zoomers with  that stance.

I could be misremembering but doesn't deviantart default to they/them or was that another website? I could swear it came up during the Charlie Kirk thread in reference to his assassin.

There are media reporting citizens being detained and held even for long periods of time before release. Whether there is reason for it or it’s just big meany bigots being mean I haven’t actually given a shit to look into though. I know there was a story about some dude held for 73 days though. But yeah the belief is if you look brown they take you down.

It just occurred to me if you had no respect for human life whatsoever, you absolutely could destroy something like an inconvenient Mosque from below and as long as you controlled the narrative...
Surprised our greatest allies haven't done this.
 
We're actually going to get Brown Texas are we?
Fixed that for you.
If you want to go down the rabbit hole on the things going down in Texas you can look up the development of the supposed East Plano Islamic Center, or Epic City for sure. This being a massive 400 someodd acre development plan to create a massive Muslim community in Texas. Complete with their own residential areas, shopping areas, schools, and more. Their current resident scholar, Yasir Qadhi, even once advocated and protested for Aafia Siddiqui, known as Miss al-Qaeda. This of course was because of her role with the terror group as financier. You know it's bad when one of the planners for 9/11 names you, though he was waterboarded when this information was revealed.

Then let's go over to Collin County, to the IACC, or Islam Association of Collin County. Whose current imam is Arsalan Haque. Take a stick to your wife if she's uppity. And seems very interested in slavery.


Greg Abbot, the current governor of Texas has of course signed bill HB 4211 into law this year, which would prevent businesses from using religious exemptions in state law, prevent discrimination against non-muslims within these planned areas, make businesses diclose when selling land they do so on behalf of a business, and many other "anti sharia-law" practices. Though I am sure no one will fall victim to taqiyya.

I haven't touched on the numerous grants and donations these places get, all funded by the state of Texas and it's taxpayers, in the span of millions. But that can be for another time.

they're USDA prime-grade niggercattle, they just hear whatever NPR, CNN, or their bluesky/X feed tell them and believe it unquestioningly. They're either incapable or unwilling to bother to expend the minimum amount of thought to even consider if what they're being told is false. It's not even a strictly demographic thing; you can see this from boomers to zoomers and there is very little that can convince them otherwise

I have a couple of Puerto Rican coworkers and they were grumbly about deportations, so I was like “what, are you worried you’re going to get deported? Lol. Puerto Rico is a US territory.”

They had no comeback

The point being, pan-brown identity goes that deep. Tell a Puerto Rican “why are you worried about Guatemalans or whatever?” and there’s a good chance that they’ll feel successfully called out and concede

Pretty much every single incident of a citizen being detained was either mistaken identity, or the citizen was actively interfering with an ICE raid and got arrested as a result. But of course, CNN reports that as ICE randomly arresting every brown person they see.

A massive problem we have now is the left's media organs have gaslit their followers into thinking ICE isn't actually federal law enforcement, but is Trump's personal fascist squad, and has gotten it into the heads of numerous fat, middle-aged women that they can block ICE vehicles and assault ICE agents with no consequences.
 
like that one time the british navy forgot the cure for scurvy.
was this before or after "limey" became a slur?

most PRs I've known wouldn't piss on a non-PR hispanic if they were on fire, and actively mock those who aren't US citizens like PRs are
other than "not killing each other at the goya aisle" there isn't much solidarity among hispanics
