Huh. So this is what it looks like when your president wages war on the people of his country. “President Donald Trump posted a meme on social media Saturday saying that Chicago "will find out why it’s called the Department of WAR," as the city’s officials brace for an immigration crackdown. "I love the smell of deportations in the morning … Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR," the post reads. Trump signed an executive order on Friday to rebrand the Pentagon as the "Department of War."
The post includes what appears to be an artificially generated image of the president wearing a hat and sunglasses, with the Chicago skyline in the background, accompanied by text reading "Chipocalypse Now."
Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker on Saturday called Trump’s post "not normal." Not normal indeed. “"The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal," Pritzker wrote on X. "Donald Trump isn’t a strongman, he’s a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator." Can you say distraction? Don’t forget about Jeff Epstein……that’s still roiling in DC. And TOM is doing all he can to create the sideshow from the DC circus so you don’t notice that chaos reigns supreme there and that the survivors of Epstein and Maxwell are not going away. And they are staying put very loudly.
And the Congressional sycophants are getting on this deranged train! “Yet as Trump has dramatically stepped up his use of military force, fellow Republicans in Congress — where authorization for such actions is supposed to originate — have done little but cheer him on. That’s giving the president significant leeway as he raises plans to send troops next to Chicago, Baltimore and New Orleans. Lawmakers from Louisiana — a red state that surrounds politically blue New Orleans — said it was a great idea for National Guard troops to go there next.
“New Orleans, like most Democrat-run cities, has a high crime rate, so it would be helpful,” House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, told The Associated Press.
Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., agreed: “We need all the help we can get. I’m delighted to bring in the National Guard.”
Wait until one of the troops kills a big old red R in the streets. Then let’s see what a great idea this is.
These R’s in the administration are a real hoot. When they lose their day job they should go on the comedy circuit. “U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Monday she doesn’t think the detention of hundreds of South Koreans in an immigration raid at a Hyundai plant in Georgia will deter investment in the United States because such tough actions mean there is no uncertainty about the Trump administration’s policies.” Yah. That won’t dissuade any country from building and investing here. Not a one. Does anyone else hear Canada’s and Mexico’s phones ringing off the hook? ““We’re encouraging all companies who want to come to the United States and help our economy and employ people, that we encourage them to employ U.S. citizens and to bring people to our country that want to follow our laws and work here the right way,” she told reporters.” So enticing! Every foreign country: “Where do I sign up to make the USA even richer and more overbearing?”
