I have done my best to not mention Trump on any of my SM accounts to hopefully avoid something like this. Probably silly to do so but for as often as I travel to and fro I'm not taking any chances.According to my TikTok FYP, the US State Department is already taking Americans ability to travel away.
Three separate posts have come up today with unconnected people saying they were stopped in European airports by Interpol, told their US Passports were flagged as lost/stolen, and for two of them, immediately deported back to the US on the next flight.
The third was able to talk to a US Embassy and get an emergency Passport for their vacation before returning.
All returned home to be told by US Customs that "there's nothing flagged on our end," and told to apply for a new passport (at their cost).
All of them said the process to report a passport lost requires a SSN and DOB. All information that DOGE suspiciously had access to. Also, there's no way to find out if your passport was reported lost / part of this potential identity theft until you are outside of the country.
Nope. People will just shrug their shoulders and say, "well...."I agree the MAGAts are in it for a lifetime, spiritually, even if driven underground. That 30% is the true believer German Nazis. That's why we need to carve the slogan on their foreheads like the meme. They should never be permitted to hide it.
The Comfortables like, well, all of us, will only be radicalized if the Nazis steal 2026. If the exit polls shows us +10 and the official tallies show us at +3 then we'll get an Orange Revolution in this country. Peaceful occupation of city squares by white employed normies. General consumer strike. The army refusing to fire on us. That's the revolution we'll get here, with Dump and his ilk having to hightail it out to Moscow or Tel Aviv ahead of the new, real DOJ.
It could actually be... healthy? I mean when was the last time normal Americans did shit for our rights? The answer is: never. The white middle class has never made any sacrifice for freedom and civil liberty because we never had to. We always had the vote. Take away the vote and we will get a very polite, Mystery Alaska like revolution that brings down the government, and a Second Republic.
Damn skippy, I'm with it.
I am still not sure we are there yet on travel...for no other reason than travel business is already down and that would kill it. We are the majority of commercial traffic.I have done my best to not mention Trump on any of my SM accounts to hopefully avoid something like this.

And then when the Dems don't fix everything in six months, we elect Republicans again.Kep,
I am not sure The Midterms will be enough...probably take full economic collapse to force the lazy into action.
We need another FDR administration and we need it badly.And then when the Dems don't fix everything in six months, we elect Republicans again.
Rinse and repeat.
We need a Constitutional amendment mandating public financing of all elections and declaring private financing to be bribery which bars the candidate from that or any other office.We need another FDR administration and we need it badly.
They can start by adding UBI and Universal Health Care to the social safety net. That would be a good start.
The list is endless. I just posted starters. We really need to start preventing losses from being socialized, and profits being privatized. It's old, tired, and sick.We need a Constitutional amendment mandating public financing of all elections and declaring private financing to be bribery which bars the candidate from that or any other office.
We need an amendment removing the Census and the drawing of districts from any party's or politician's control.
We also need a spate of amendments shrinking the powers of the Presidency and prohibiting pestilential nonsense like unitary executive theory.
We need the explicit inclusion of privacy as the fundamental right underpinning all others.
And then for legislation and budget... we need a Picketty tax and Draconian upper tax tiers to gut the billionaires as an existential threat to democracy. And we need to end the church tax dodge.
Sadly yes...but that is also partly because a lot of those Democrats dont want to fix it and dont even hide it. I mean the Democrats are more unpopular with their base than the GOP are in general because the voters know they are not acting in our best interests. I mean Jesus the leadership is arguing over "procedure" when it comes to Venezuela not about us kidnapping the leader of a sovereign nation and its illegality. The argument that "what do you expect them to do they have no power" dies when they don't even put up a losing fight. Say what you will the GOP uses every trick in the book to try and get their way and to a lot of voters they would rather have that then the "well we are right and smart and we will fight only when we have to" method, especially when the world is going to crap.And then when the Dems don't fix everything in six months, we elect Republicans again.
Rinse and repeat.
If the Dems ran any candidate on this platform they would get more ECs than Obama. Hell even half of that would do it. They would lose big money donors but would likely end up with more money from small donations. (like Zohran)We need a Constitutional amendment mandating public financing of all elections and declaring private financing to be bribery which bars the candidate from that or any other office.
