>w>... "We'll make the economy so great! We'll have American industry in America!" -> South Korea goes 'Neat, we'll help you with that.' -> "DEPORT THE SOUTH KOREANS!" -> South Korea goes '... What the fuck, okay, fuck you then, good luck with your shitty factories, bye."

Yup.

And they were taken away in chains and filmed in a typical grandstanding play.

And around a third of those detained had Visas or work permits here.

Wonder how much that operation cost?

<w<... Now now... You know that costs are only for things that help people, if it hurts people, it's Free*TM*.

It could well be, or at least put a serious ding in their willingness to invest in manufacturing anything in the US.

They're already discussing exactly that in Korea.

You DO know that it's impossible to pull oneself up by one's own bootstraps, don't you?

Just picture yourself trying to do it. Or better yet, actually try to do it.

I remember when the 'Oy Boys' were an over-the-top bit of dystopian science fiction.

Now they work for the government.

Nemesis the Warlock is playing out surprisingly accurately. Sort of.

Not familiar with that myself.

Charlie Kirk is dead.

So I've heard.

It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Last time it was guys in the same color shirt doing it, and they didn't speak English, so it's clearly different this time.

It's both different and the same old story.

I ask again... IS IT 2028 YET?

I'm afraid not.

It will be soon... once again, the midterms are going to be a BLOODBATH.

Midterms are 2026. Don't forget to vote in the primaries. Or better yet, run in them!

I wish.

I’m mostly concerned with what will happen if the guy who killed Charlie Kirk is revealed to be a liberal, especially if he/she is a minority. They’re already trying to pin it on the democrats, so I’m concerned about what they will do if proven right.
Wouldn’t put it past them to lie about the shooter’s affiliations either, whether they’re actually caught or not.

I knew very little about Kirk prior to yesterday, but what little I’ve been able to glean from skimming articles and comments has told me that he isn’t worth the mourning that members of both sides are experiencing right now. I just wish that our country wasn’t politically screwed enough that we have to be concerned about some sort of widespread attack if it turns out that he wasn’t one of their own.

Of course we don't even know his political leanings yet, but I guarantee you right now that he's not a "Liberal".

Liberals don't murder their perceived political opponents.

While I don't believe in political violence, at the very least because it always backfires, don't expect me to mourn his completely despicable ass.

Political violence is wrong, but seeing so many people act as if this guy was a saint after everything he did just makes me wonder how they’ll gloss over everything when Trump eventually dies.

It all just makes me sick...

Dude was a Groyper who wanted to both eliminate an enemy (Charlie Kirk and head Groyper Nick Fuentes were NOT friends) and kick-start a race-war.

Yeah, after seeing his identity get revealed, I just find it entertaining how the republicans went from declaring war on the democrats and saying that the guy would get the death penalty when caught (when they ‘knew’ he was a democrat and were probably hoping he wasn’t white) to saying ‘we hoped it wasn’t one of us’ and ALSO wondering why he isn’t cooperating when he knows he’s most likely getting executed (or life in prison w/o parole if he is VERY lucky and gets offered some sort of plea deal) regardless of what he says.

Also, even if he does get life, what’s to say he won’t mysteriously die while incarcerated like Epstein did?

He won't die b/c he's a nobody... and Epstein killed himself because he was an egomaniacal lunatic who thought he was running a Super Soldier breeding-program on his private-island.

The fact that he thought DONALD TRUMP, one of the dumbest men on the planet, was viable genetic material for his experiment is proof he was a "Better To Die Than Be Killed" madman... much like a certain funny little man from Austria who ate a gun-barrel so the Allies wouldn't do to him what the Partisans had done to Mussolini.

I think it's still too early to say for sure, but evidence seems to be pointing in that direction.
