1. Once again fuck Jill Stein and

Fuck the “Free Palestine” movement in this country.

[Horse with no Name]

2. I hope they enjoy their contribution to the genocide

And leveling of Gaza because that’s so much better than what Harris offered. Fuck them.

[SunSeeker]

8. Yup. Gaza will be leveled and Jared will get to build that seaside resort. nt

[LetMyPeopleVote]

58. Jared will get his resort

3. Idiots. nt

[Quakerfriend]

17. Yes, f__g idiots! And, given project 2025, many may

find themselves deported- despite having citizenship.

[madaboutharry]

4. He is not their friend.

[Ocelot II]

5. Let's see how they feel after Trump sends more and bigger weapons to Netanyahu

and gives him carte blanche to wipe Gaza and every human still living there off the map so Jared can develop some luxury oceanfront hotels and condos.

[travelingthrulife]

42. They will blame it on Biden and forget about it.

[newdeal2]

6. They are only fooling themselves

Trump’s peace plan is to bomb Palestine into submission.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

57. trump will let Bibi carpet bomb Gaza

15. It's rather difficult to deport US citizens.

I mean, it would be great if we could deport everyone who voted for Trump, but ...

[Coventina]

18. It won't stop Trump and his goons.

And I, for one, will not stand in the way of it happening.

[haele]

45. Easier to deport Naturalized Citizens.

If they support Palestine or Lebanon, they can easily be considered Islamic terrorists - Hamas or Hezbollah proxies.
Which can get them deported or sent to Gitmo. There's precedent for that.
Doesn't matter who they voted for.

[LonePirate]

52. It is difficult to deport them legally but SCOTUS gave him unlimited power to act illegally.

[Ocelot II]

19. They're citizens.

[Coventina]

21. So? Trump never let pesky laws stand in his way before. And he has immunity.

[LeftInTX]

33. You cannot deport someone who is not a citizen of

another country. It is physically impossible. Trump does not defy the laws of physics.

They will not be admitted to the country.

The only place he can send them is Gitmo or some rogue country with no immigration laws.

[Coventina]

53. He'll make a deal with one of the countries in the ME to hand them over as slave labor. n/t

25. Trump has already shown his willingness to use loopholes in immigration law

Trump’s stripping of passports from some Texas Latinos, explained

The Trump administration is engaging in an immigration crackdown in South Texas — against people who have birth certificates showing they were born in the United States.

According to a Washington Post report published Wednesday by Kevin Sieff, immigration lawyers in the area are reporting that “hundreds, even thousands” of Latinos born near the US-Mexico border are being told that their birth certificates aren’t sufficient proof of US citizenship to get their passports approved or renewed.

They’re being subjected to ridiculous document requests like baptismal records, and insulting interview questions like “Do you remember when you were born?” Some are having their existing passports revoked and being thrown in deportation proceedings, or even being barred from reentering the United States when they attempted to come back from Mexico.

A lot of people (not least immigrants and other nonwhite Americans) have already come to the conclusion that the Trump administration lacks any respect for them as Americans or as people; in that context, the denial of passports to native-born citizens can look like racism at best and state violence at worst.

9. If they were angry before, they're really going to like what happens next.

Hell, I wouldn’t be surprised if Тяцмр’s stormtroopers clear them out too.

[Lonestarblue]

10. So their protest votes for Trump and Stein likely mean that Palestinians in Gaza will be murdered or forced to leave.

They have nowhere to go, but Israel intends to take the land and locate settlers there. The world will not stop them.

[GoodRaisin]

11. Well, they can just call Jill Stein for help now when Trump and Netanyahu crush

the Palestinians.

Such stupid, stupid people.

[Klarkashton]

12. Some activist was on Amy Goodman laying the

Blame on the Democrats for this. However there was no suggestions about what happens moving forward. We all know what that is anyway.

[Cha]

44. Of Course they Blamed Dems for their OWN STUPIDITY.

[Klarkashton]

47. They also had Ralph Nader sticking it to the Democrats

Naturally they had no good advice. They talked universal healthcare and a lot of stuff that is going no place in this climate of libertarian/John Birch world.

[Cha]

50. Yeah, of course they did. They pumped jill Stein's LIES in 2016.. that Hillary

and trump were the same. They hate Dems.

Stein's LIES in those the states got us TSF in 2016 and On the Road to Fascism all over the USA.

[Klarkashton]

51. And fucked up Dearborn MI just last night 18%

Very nice of them.

[sarisataka]

13. Not surprised

They wanted to "teach Democrats a lesson". As they said, "We survived four years of Trump once, we can do it again". The question is, will Gaza survive?

[kenziemom06]

34. Because

luckily they didn't die from Covid. But maybe whooping cough will do it this time!

[LeftInTX]

35. They don't care.

[RJ_MacReady]

14. oh well

"Palestine" willbe reduced to rubble. Oh well not my problem nor my concern.

[AkFemDem]

16. I don't care, do you?

[RJ_MacReady]

20. not anymore

They made their choice. Now deal with the consequences. Bombs away Israel.

[LeftInTX]

27. And they will complain ad nauseum

[RJ_MacReady]

28. not my concern

They should have thought about the consequences.

[LeftInTX]

31. It's a power play for them.

They figure they will have "more influence" by pulling these stunts.

[RJ_MacReady]

32. they will learn thr hard way

Or they won't. Either way I no longer care about Gaza. I have better things to care about.

[Mossfern]

46. Idiots

Even I knew this would happen, and I'm just a little old lady.

[Srkdqltr]

22. Dearborn has always been a pit. Back when it was all white and would not admit minorities. They even have a park near

Kensington park just for Dearborn people all white. Of course it is very Middle Eastern now but you still have to be a guest of Dearborn to get in.

[pat_k]

23. I have a feeling they'll be less enamored of the glee DT takes in

. . . goading Netanyahu to wipe the Palestinians in GAZA (and the West Bank, why not?) off the face of the Earth.

[Happy Hoosier]

24. I am sorry for the 35% of the sane residents there...

The others should look elsewhere for allies when the Orange Shitgibbon comes for them, and he will.

[LeftInTX]

26. They got what they wanted, so F that.

[WarGamer]

29. Pardon my pessimism... but I think Nuttyahoo planned it that way.

[lees1975]

30. So they helped condemn Gaza to destruction, and earned a ticket for themselves to some

destination in the Middle East when he starts emptying out Dearborn and Hamtramk.

[SKKY]

36. Well, they're about to "find out"...

...We'll see what happens when he turns Bibi loose.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

37. Good thing this race didn't come down to one town.

[AkFemDem]

39. You don't think this serves as a bellwether

For a whole lot of other angry Free Palestine voters nationwide?? Did we not see the protests on college campuses and interruptions at Harris rallies?!!

[WhiskeyGrinder]

54. No.

[Cha]

48. That "one Town" is an Example for the GD Stupidity of Voting for

the Sick Fuck.

[Tickle]

38. fuck, Jack Smith will be gone before tRump gets into the WH

you can't charge a sitting president. All his legal problems are now gone away so said Faux noise

[City Lights]

40. Cutting off the nose to spite the face is never a winning strategy.

I am blown away at the stupidity and/or stubbornness of some people. This wasn't rocket science, people.

[BannonsLiver]

41. Well they sure showed us.

Of course it’s going to get a lot worse for Gaza in the near future. Tough break, I guess.

[iemanja]

43. Netanyahu fired Gallant this morning

That's surely a sign of more carnage to come in Gaza. Smart move, Dearborn.

[Mike 03]

49. Wow. I didn't think they'd actually fall for that. What a shame

for the Palestinians.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

55. trump has made clear that he will deport muslin protesters and let Bibi destroy GAZA

Stein and Tlaib will be responsible for many deaths and deportations

Link to tweet

"Unlike Kamala, I will support Israel's right to win its war on terror. And instead of pandering to jihad sympathizers and America-hating radicals, I will deport them."

[Johnny2X2X]

56. This issue may have cost her MI

Votes still being counted, but this could have been enough. They doomed America and Gaza for their protest vote.

[GaYellowDawg]

59. That's like

Being angry about an overcooked steak and ordering a shit sandwich instead.

The only chance that those voters had of influencing U.S. policy was to vote Democratic. I'm not going to blame them for this loss. If America wasn't so goddamned fucked up, then their protest votes wouldn't have mattered when everyone else was voting for Kamala.

That said, when they see their people slaughtered and the hasty graves paved over, when they see Ivanka and Clarence Thomas and MTG and Boebert and Ted Cruz and Peter Thiel sunning themselves at Trump Plaza Gaza, I hope they remember every millisecond of being in that voting booth and wail from the bottom of their souls.

[Bettie]

60. Well, everyone in Gaza will be dead soon

and that orange creature will be slapping his name on a bunch of gaudy buildings on the beach.

They decided to vote for that.

[JI7]

61. Being anti Israel doesn't mean being pro palestinian

and in this case being anti lgbt had a lot to do with voting Trump.

[onenote]

62. Even if every Stein, Kennedy and Cornel vote in Michigan went to Harris, she'd have lost

And that's without giving Trump any of those votes or the votes of the Libertarian candidate or crazy anti-abortion zealot Russell Terry.
