    He sucks and we all knew that. But here’s the fucked up thing…

    Imo, this is the first documented fake “journalist” embedding themselves in what is essentially military aggressions on the mil’s own soil and pretty much against its own people. We see these turdbags embedded with the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan (Geraldo was never a real journalist)… and this is kind of like that. We are now at the point where the right feels comfortable enough with this shit to start televising the abuse on groups of people they hate.

      I sort of suspect that there is going to be a wild period of time when the civilian cops in the US start doing some messed up stuff, but they still have bodycams and there are still mechanisms where the footage can go up on YouTube, for an excited commentator to be emoting about how this entitled illegal immigrant learned her lesson the hard way.

        Trump LOVES Duterte. If that’s any indicator to how things are likely to go. For a small second I was like, no it can’t get that bad. But … no, it can. There’s already been a handful of videos of proud boys dressing up as ICE.
