I think Trump is liking the middle east a bit too much, starting to sound like a Pharao
Florida Lawmakers Sound Alarm Over Plans 'To Send Pregnant Women & Children' to ~~'Alligator Alcatraz'~~ concentration camp
FTFY
Ok so. How has no one taken a drone out to this facility and gotten a recording of the entire exterior of it?
Because based on what I've seen, a couple of guys with bolt cutters could do some serious damage to it.
Hell, have we learned nothing from Ukraine? Get some cheap ass FPV drones to land with strips of thermite?
Like I'm 1.5k miles from where it is, so that's a bit of a problem for me. But how is there no one in Florida capable of this kind of thinking?
It's like everyone completely has no idea what "sabotage" is, and that you don't need to hurt people to defeat a regime.
All the alarms have been going off for months now. But every organization that were supposed to do something about it were disbanded, defunded or rendered powerless.
Honest question, what's flagging this as AI for you? I can generally catch them pretty easily, but I'm not seeing it here.
The sepia filter and the styling of the font as well as the whole overall feel is exactly like ChatGPT does cartoons.
So they're sending children to death camps already? I thought it would take longer than this
they were already pushing children in concentration camps last trump administration.
I'm sure that Ron DeSantis will take the opinions of the half a dozen or so Democrat lawmakers out of 43 in Florida's state government that could be bothered to show up very seriously, and it will be a top priority of the DeSantis and Trump administrations to address those concerns along with the other numerous legal and Constitutional issues surrounding the compound.
Exactly. This is all gobbledygook feelgoodery grandstanding without any actual change. Again. From the democrats.
Latinos overwhelmingly voted for this 70%.
Sorry, not sorry.
Nobody deserves this. These people were suckered by a conman who has decades of experience conning people. That doesn't warrant a death sentence or even imprisonment.
If a successful coalition is to be formed, it has to be made up of former Trump voters. We won't have the numbers otherwise.
This is true, but at the same time those voting for him need to be smarter than a rock come voting season. It’s hard to have empathy for those crying about how Trump has wrecked their lives after they so shamelessly/stupidly supported him.
"Empathy" is what the right completely lacks, and it's what Democrats have begun abandoning because it's not in vogue. However, empathy is the one thing that helps us unite across boundaries that the right tries to convince us are unsurpassable. Empathy is what makes us strong.
I get that being angry is easier than being productive, but we really need to be productive right now, and writing off large groups of people because of their perceived failings is not helping.
Most of the people being sent to these camps are going to be undocumented, so they couldn't have voted in the election if they tried.
The children didn't vote
Yeah, at this point I have zero sympathy for anyone who voted for them. You find yourself without health insurance, a home, being deported, having your workers deported? Welcome to the find out phase of FAaFO.
"What we're witnessing isn't about security or solving problems," they said in a joint statement, "It's about inhumane political theater that endangers real people."
Yep. It's a theater of cruelty that would have delighted the Marquis de Sade.
