Probably because after they do, they crash and it will generally be assumed the crash is what killed them.

If anyone else acted to disrupt federal functionality like that they'd be in prison for treason.

Nobody elected this chucklefuck, he is actively harmful to the country and doing irreparable damage. Of all the people getting deported this fucker is the one that really deserves it.

Some things are worth it.

If we're lucky they'll destroy each other entirely.

"VIP" getting you a special booth at a restaurant or preferential treatment at a business is one thing.

"VIP" giving you special legal protections and immunity to prosecution is another. As bad as "VIP" bias is now, just wait until it's actually codified into law and you'll see why "Second class citizen" is such a ubiquitous term for the systematically oppressed.

They're not even going to pretend that people are equal. The Donvict, President Musk, and the MAGAstappo deeply believe that rich white men are worth more than anyone who isn't one of them, and will use the full force of the law as they interpret it to protect their interests.

Just you wait. They're going to push for laws specifically protecting what they'll call "High Value Citizens" or something to that effect. Give it time.

And it's only been a month.

I had this idea, like what if we used our own cells to make some of the identifying surface proteins of viruses and stuff, and use that to train our immune system on what to look for. We wouldn't even need to cultivate the pathogen itself at all.

I hope some day we can invent some sort of treatment that could prevent kids from ever getting this disease.

Fortunately Ohio is full of people who will take this seriously and work to suppress disease transmission and encourage the development and distribution of vaccines. Right guys?

Again. Third time's the charm I guess, not that it'll have any consequences this time either.

May his future be lit by the bridges he's burned.

He apparently really hated the "President Musk" comments.

What he "may have intended" is irrelevant. He knew what he did. He did it twice. Elon Musk is an idiot but even he isn't so stupid as to not realize what he was doing. Having the absolute thinnest veil of plausible deniability isn't an excuse.

Your defense would be equally as applicable, and just as stupid, if he started requiring all Tesla cars to have a Swastika prominently displayed at all times, claiming "Well it was an ancient Buddhist symbol first, Maybe that's what he meant!"

Well he tried to get his last VP killed, so this is on brand for him already.

He never intended to support Ukraine. Never. This is just some bullshit to act like he's "Justified" in cutting support. Just wait until he finds an excuse to give it to Russia instead.

Well JD Vance can fuck off all the way up his own ass with his blatant lies.

I have mixed feelings about that, because on the one hand I fucking hate that festering pustule that is Alex Jones and I absolutely revel in him being objectively wrong all the fucking time.

Exactly. We can't rely on any sort of subtly or assumption of law. Precedent, be it of the courts or simply the traditional way of doing things, won't stop them. It has to be solid law, and they're still going to take it to court.

The actual stripping of protections, the laws they are or will pass, those are bad enough already, but sometimes it feels like the worst part is just how brave these bigot shitfuckers have become now that their pet nazi is in power. They don't even have the decency to be afraid to fly their hate flag anymore. They were always shitty people, but at least they used to feel like the country at large would reject them for expressing their true feelings, hence all the pushback against "Cancel Culture." Now, though, they're not even afraid of ostriziation, much less anything more substantial.
