A justification is any reason given to justify an action. Fascist will always have a justification for their actions. You said you’re waiting for them to stop trying to justify it, but that’s never going to happen. There will always always be bullshit justification.

Just because things could get worse, doesn’t mean that they aren’t an absolute catastrophe already and it is a cope to sit there and Keep telling yourself” well at least it’s not worse than it is now.”

You realize they will always have some sort of “justification”. Heck, saying “ I felt like it” would be a justification.

You’re waiting for a line to be crossed that has already been crossed.

Edit: For your specific cope here: under no legal basis would already having that plane in the air change the legality of the situation. If it was in the air they could’ve and should’ve turned it around.

They have, already defied multiple rulings and continue to defy more. It’s crazy to me how few people seem to realize this. Even in this thread.

One example: https://www.npr.org/2025/02/12/nx-s1-5293132/trump-vance-constitutional-crisis-court-rulings

Edit: The fact that major outlets keep phrasing it as a hypothetical isn’t helping.

searching for “ treasury reappropriates nyc funds” yielded over a dozen news articles about this.

Here is a local source: https://abc7ny.com/post/new-york-city-files-lawsuit-trump-administration-80m-money-grab-fema-funds/15943443/

Many other news orgs covered this as well if this isn’t considered reputable.

Can also confirm. Do business with the NIH and they are unable to purchase anything with credit cards and want to switch over to purchase orders… which aren’t being paid either.

Props for changing the line to:

“Disruptive U.S. President Donald Trump has seriously undermined the transatlantic relationship and the NATO military alliance, while aligning with a bellicose Russia.”

Previously was a super milquetoast statement like “Washington’s shocking realignment with Moscow”

Came here to mock them for saying “shocking” and the quote had changed.

They ARE ALREADY defying court orders. The papers continue to refuse to call a spade a spade.

Ahhh… I remember when Abraham Lincoln predicted this true Circle of Life.

Definitely not something I would want to imagine. I don’t take any of those medicines myself. It would still be absolutely devastating at a personal level. I am in a similar situation to millions of my fellow Americans, and I think you are correct that it would result in violence. Violent self harm bare minimum.

Won’t matter if FDA approval for your psychotropic meds is revoked that’s the worry. Your trusted (excellent to you) psychiatrist can’t prescribe illegal drugs.

Yes. I’ve heard some brands will search for nearby devices of the same brands that are already connected to the internet so that even if YOU didn’t connect the TV to WiFi, it still calls home/gets ads.

Judging by their shirts saying St. Someone, I am inclined to believe these ARE private school kids. So this is thankfully legal, no need to worry good citizen.
