Assuming he lives that long. His immunity and status irrelevant. Just slap the cuffs on him and Chuck him in “Auschwitz” where due process never existed. Sadly that will make us just like them.

Mosquitoes are responsible for more human fatalities through disease transmission than any other animal in the state. They are particularly problematic in swamps.

I'll scream this until my last breath.

Alligator Auschwitz is a death camp. Period.

everybody was covered by a thick coating of mosquitoes the instant they got out of vehicles. But the video of that event didn't appear to show anything bothering djt, desantis or noem. Guess they had been well sprayed down with repellent.

There can be no more getting off scot free for criminals who intentionally and knowingly harm this country and its people.

TLP have made a buck in the liberal markets but not increased our GOTV nor said one word in support of the Democratic Party or candidates (well, maybe once, but in fact, hardly ever).

Otherwise I agree with the rest of what you say, though our rule of law reckoning won't and shouldn't be anything like what the oligarch driven cult of Proj 2025 have done.

You know that Meidas Touch isn't anything like The Lincoln Project, right?
Meidas Touch is a fact based news organization and TLP is a fearmongering right wing production company. You know that, too, right? Unlike TLP, Meidas doesn't do clickbait headlines. Just sayin'.

as wrong as Trump. The Lincoln Project doesn't know or really support the Democratic Party at all. It has always just wanted liberal market clicks and money.
This is not an ad Democrats should admire. And TLP knows nothing about alligators, either.

Tue Jul 8, 2025, 12:58 PM
Jul 2025

It's built to keep people OUT! There's one heavily guarded road leading to the complex. You know the phrase, 'what happens in Vegas STAYS in Vegas'? No one OUTSIDE is to learn what happens INSIDE. Everyone who works there in any capacity will have to sign NDAs - NDAs that will have very serious consequences if broken.
We will never know how many people are there nor how many have died.

Unfortunately, the Democratic Party is too civilized to ever do something like this and the Republican Magats know this. To put it bluntly, they just don't have the cajones to do anything like this.

...that refuses to commit to it. We are where we are today in part--possibly large part--because of Biden's desire to turn the page and his choice of Milquetoast Garland.

If we haven't learned from that then we are in no position to shepherd America into the future....

If so, then supporting the use of this prison for ANYONE is inherently bad. No Democrat should support it.
