LOL Democrat states need to announce they are in the planning stage of building the Super Max Prisons that will be needed to house all the convicts once Trump is toppled. ALL ICE and any local and State police that helped will need to have swift trials and LIFE sentences to dissuade this from ever happening again. We were too nice to the Nazis last time. We won't make that same mistake.

Never happen. Politicians have a direct interest in keeping the violent gang members cultivated to protect their interests out of jail. If the enforcers go to jail, how long do you think it'll take the capos to join them?
See, we never actually "punished" the nazis. We gave them jobs and government positions. We gave them benefits and Healthcare and pensions. We couldn't possibly get rid of nazis without getting rid of our neighbors and politicians, so we never did.
Really? This is the hill ya wanna die on?
Doesn't matter because the Democrats caved so all of this was for naught and all this leverage is now gone.
The pr was getting terrible for Donnie and his party, the slide was getting steeper.
Yeah, good luck with that. People were sent their full SNAP in my state because a judge ordered those benefits to be paid. I get a case for stopping further States' distributions given the more recent judgement, but the idea that they'll be able to claw back money from the States that have already distributed the full amount seems insane. People got sent what they were entitled to, in the amount they were entitled to, after a judge's order saying to do that and before another judge's order saying not to do that. So I just don't conceive of an argument that a court would accept that would retroactively claw that money back from people.
I WANT PEOPLE TO STARVE DAMMIT
Fucker can ignore a court order, twice, states can ignore whatever he says.
It's like he wants us to physically overthrow him
Yes he does. He literally wants that to be attempted so he can impose the insurrection act and take all power.
Maybe! My money is he wants the shutdown to keep going so he can justify declaring martial law.
Because he loves democracy....And wishes to reorganize into the first galactic empire.
Why would the Democrats do this?
It's because they're dirty liberals! And the nice thing about using "liberal" as an insult is that you can claim to be on either end of the political spectrum when you do it, depending on what's convenient at the time.
I've also seen both sides of the political spectrum using the term "liberal" to describe themselves positively.
Im sure the state's right ppl are real upset over this.
It blows my mind that that ratfucked littlecoward of a traitor to America has actually managed to normalize starving citizens to his little criminal organization masquerading as “politicians”.
He’s got them all on board doing shit they probably never would have believed they’d do when they started out.
They always were on board, they just never had the guts.
As someone from poor rural Midwest, I can tell you from first hand experience, that people have usually ran out of food stamps about 3 weeks into the month.
Meaning, most people on snap are waiting for the first to get groceries because they don't have anything.
And now we are going on week 2 of the month.
So for many. It's now getting close to 3 weeks without food money.
And with the rising food costs, I wouldn't be surprised if people are running out of snap money closer to the midpoint of the month.
So for them. It's been 4 weeks
He’s banking on many of them resorting to crime so he can say, “see! I told you!” and justify martial law and calling the nations guard to come down hard on American citizens.

A better source.
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/11/09/trump-administration-tells-states-to-undo-full-snap-benefits-00643887
USDA’s latest memo, sent Saturday to state directors of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, instructed states to deliver just 65 percent of benefits during the government shutdown and required those who already sent full payments to claw back that money.
There really is no bottom to this administrations evil.
The only saving grace is that most of the people who I know that are on SNAP fucking love Trump and will probably keep loving him even after this. Maybe it's where I live but it's getting harder and harder to feel bad for these people getting hurt by Trump's policies because most of them still fucking love him.
It confirms my theory that they are desperately trying to implement the mass killing of people.
The political violence they wanted isn't happening. The dropping vaccine rates isn't fast enough. And now people aren't starving as they should be.
That indicates to me that they are finding out just how hard it is to kill 268,000,000 people. It might have something to do with the fact that 268,000,000 are more than enough to keep themselves alive.
I have theory that the Republican party (note, not voters) is made of three very different factions:
- Christians hoping to bring about Armageddon and the end of times so they can get to heaven. How they hope to get to heaven by supporting Trump is beyond me. In the mean time, they'll settle for Christian theocratic dictatorship.
- Atheist tech-bros that can see the environment is going to shit. Their plan is to remove as many people as possible to reduce the impact of humans on the environment, replacing them with AI and robots as needed.
- Old, oil connected and/or corrupt politicians that just don't give a fuck so long as they get a fat pay cheque. They are too rich and old to ever feel the consequences of this administration.
While they have wildly different motivations, they seem to agree on letting people die serves their goals.
It's actually, in order of demographic size, biggest to least:
- Politicians that just don't give a fuck so long as they keep a fat pay cheque.
- Tech-bros that want to replace people with AI so as to get keep fat pay cheque..
- Christians/religious whose hate, xenophobia, and intolerance is more important than anything else
Ok but that middle one sounds way different from the other two. Js, the 1% are responsible for 99% of our pollution.
Yeah, but if enough of us die...? To be clear, these tech-bros are truly evil, they will do whatever it takes to secure their wealth and lifestyle.
Yeah, thats kinda what im getting at. Currently, behind fossil fuels, the most polluting/environmentally unfriendly industry im aware of is ai development.
Full controversial disclosure: ive been studying actual AI since the early 00s. I know what the tech is capable of and im very well versed in it. Llms are a nichely useful tool, but thats it. That is not even close to the max potential for AI. Most of the things the tech bros promise are theoretically possible, but theyre so wildly misleading about it as to basically say that they are just lying. The current AI bubble WILL pop before we see too much cooler stuff, but I am confident that the tech will still be looked into, just at a regular scale instead of being massively blown out of proportion. Eventually it will be like it used to be, with small incremental inprovements in multiple different fields and the occasional breakthrough where someone combines the fields. And this should all be happening without consumers being aware of it, basically. Not that is shiuld be hidden, but they shouldnt be writing news articles about it because real progress is slow. LLMs absorb a shitload of energy and require extreme cooling, but we know thats not a requirement for human level thought because... you dont require any of that.
If you want to actually keep up with the real progress in actual AI instead of tech bro crap or llm crap, follow Two Minute Papers on youtube. Hes far from the only source ive looked into over the years, but he has some distinct advantages over most other ai sources. He does all the paper scouring for you so you can stay up to date on the latest ai progression(again, NOT LLMS, THIS TECH HAS 0 TO DO WITH LLMS. THEY DO NOT SHARE THE SAME ARCHITECTURE, THEY DO NOT RUN ON THE SAME HARDWARE. IT IS ENTIRELY DIFFERENT.) and he breaks it down succinctly, simply, and without overselling it or any of the other propaganda. He reviews papers that are currently released and checks out the AI behind it. He also handles algorithms which are super cool!
How does open source Ai Proton Lumo compare to the others?
Id have to look into it specifically. If i can remember ill give you an update when i get home from work
It’s a plausible theory. They want to create a system that inevitably leads to revolution, so they need to weaken those that might revolt as much as possible. They are also stubbornly sticking to the old rightist tactic of inflicting pain and suffering while trying to blame that pain and suffering on their opponents. That tactic is starting to fail, which means they have to fall back to weakening those who will rise up. They are openly admitting that they know their criminal coup has been noticed and won’t be forgotten.

It's so unnecessarily cruel.
You MUST Stop FEEDING STARVING AMERICAN CHILDREN!
-Republicans LITERALLY!
Republicans when handing out business loans like candy during COVID:
It’s just too difficult to get all that money back. Just forgive all the loans.
Republicans when children are fed with government benefits
GET THAT FUCKING MONEY BACK RIGHT NOW
It's even worse than that. It's quite literally taking food BACK out of their mouths.

Ah yes, the Trump starvation agenda.
He should come take mine back personally so I can ruin his day.
so what is the purpose of this? Besides the obvious "evilness". Is it to better control the masses? Or retaliation for protesting? For force people to get a second or third job to say he is creating jobs? What is the logic behind this?
It's a tactic to get the Dems, who actually give a shit about starving children, to fold and allow the Republicans to take away our already shit healthcare and to protect pedophiles and child traffickers.
They are holding the most vulnerable Americans hostage in the hopes that it will convince the democrats to allow them to be hurt in a different way, by agreeing to the proposed budget.
But most importantly, they are also trying to extend the duration of the shutdown, while making it seem like they aren't the ones doing it. So the deal they are offering has to stay something that the democrats would never agree to....
So they also benefit from anything other than that being what is in the news, but they have lots of practice making sure the news is talking about stupid stuff instead of important stuff.
As long as the government is shut down, the vote to release the Epstein documents can't happen. Currently if it happened, it would pass. That will be devastating not to just trump, but a large percentage of rich republicans, in and out of government. (As well as a small percentage of rich democrats) so they are just waiting until the situation changes enough that they think a vote would go their way.
And while that does seem both comically evil and too simple to possibly be what it is all about.... or wait... does it still seem too evil and simple to be the real plan?
