President Donald Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
I'm glad these types of scum are off the streets and back where they belong, MAGA!
right man. like, thats been my point for about 5 years now. there is no difference between Trump and the libs.
Enlightened centrism? Say it ain’t so, Victor!
Until the genocide became too obvious for any sensible person to deny, anyone not 100% on board with Israel on virtually anything was smeared as 'antisemitic.'
The mask is finally coming off the government of Israel.
We won't be fooled again...
ya its crazy to see what people got fired for back in 2023 and 2024. but you know the saying "one day, when its safe, everyone will have been against this." so you (and maybe me but Im kinda dumb) may not get fooled again. but the collective "we" will always get fooled again just like we were for all of the genocidal atrocities that Western civilization perpetrated over the post WW2 era including but not limited to Korea, Iraq, Vietnam, Algeria, Laos, Indonesia, Timor, Central America, South America, Kenya, Congo, South Africa, Angola.

Sad but true.
Trump today announced that he is sending officers to Portland, which he called a "war zone".
Funny, because I'm out walking in the city nearly every night, and I haven't seen any violence or even heard a gunshot for a few years.

did he actually call Portland a "war zone?" Seems like a stretch.
Near enough
President Donald Trump has ordered the deployment of US troops to Portland, Oregon, authorising use of "full force" if needed, to suppress protests targeting immigration detention centres.
Trump said he was "directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland".
“At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists,”
Yes, it was "war ravaged", not "war zone".
Either way, it would have been a stretch 5 years ago. Now it's a joke.

ok. war ravaged is just as dumb
The only way it's war ravaged will be from a war started in the city by the ****witted cockwomble.
Deliberately of course, to aid in the Epstein Files diversion, among other things.
Deliberately using US military as a way to attack people on US soil.... I never thought I'd see the day.

That's what folks were saying in 1861.
What’s your point, geezer? Are you minimizing or just babbling into the wind?
History often rhymes.

He is sending in troops to protect ICE agents and federal buildings . If that is all they do he is within his rights
It’s not like the Portland Mayor is going to protect ICE officials
Let’s not forget Portland is a Sanctuary city
I saw worst situation in the U.S. where the military wasn’t even near to be needed ….
So seem for you it’s all good .
They didn't so much in 1967, when over 4,500 paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions, with an even larger number of the Michigan Army National Guard, were used to put down the Detroit riots. But then they probably remembered how 6,000 federal troops were used to put down the 1943 Detroit riots. (In both cases the Insurrection Act 1807 was invoked, so it was lawful.) Later, of course, 3,500 federal troops of the Army's 7th Infantry and the 1st Marine Division, including an armoured reconnaissance battalion, were used alongside 10,000 National Guardsmen to put down the Rodney King riots in LA in 1992. Military intervention to quell civil disorder is fairly normal for the US.

At the request of the governor of Michigan.

Not when the governor of the state does not first request it.
The real question is would Trump deploy federal troops if a blue state governor does request it. I'm guessing just like on 1/6, the answer is nope.

Except that ICE agents and federal buildings have not been under attack since 2020.
It certainly seems like ICE agents should be able to protect themselves anyway.

I’d say a shooter and bombs planted at ICE facilities seems like a problem . Sadly these democrats mayors not to concerned about protecting ICE workers and many political figures stoking it by calling them nazis and other things
The question was it legal and the answer is yes .
