Politics 🤡 Donald Trump

🤖 Thread Summary

j_p #206276 sharing a news article about New Zealand woman Sarah Shaw and her six-year-old son being detained by US immigration authorities. sup42 #206285 attributed the detention to racial profiling, claiming Shaw's olive complexion led to discriminatory treatment in what they called a "white supremacist fascist state." MrFrankWhite #206287 countered with a more procedural explanation, suggesting the issue stemmed from visa complications rather than racial bias, noting that Shaw's lawyer cited an "administrative error" with her temporary immigration document. juju #206296 challenged this assessment, arguing that detaining a mother and child for weeks over a clerical issue was excessive and indicated systemic problems with ICE procedures.

The conversation later shifted to broader Trump-related topics, MaybeTop8 #209467 sharing news about Trump firing DIA director Jeffrey Kruse following an Iran nuclear strike report. miket12 #209592 characterized Trump as "a spoiled brat who doesn't like being contradicted." More recently, MrFrankWhite #210608 introduced an unrelated incident involving Rampage Jackson's son Raja Jackson allegedly assaulting a wrestler during a live stream, suggesting it could escalate tensions in the US. However, sup42 #210627 and other users questioned the relevance of this incident to the Trump discussion thread, Noitall #210636 admitting uncertainty about the connection.


How is Liz Truss even relevant? She’s a joke being their shortest serving pm. There seems to be a group showing themselves involving Musk, Milei, Bannon, Farrage, Truss and they’re obvious ones but there will be many more like Weidel who are beginning to show themselves. All far right is what’s in common and the salutes shows their ideology. White supremacy is back in a big way, I wonder if an Arian race is still the goal?

This is the right sadly
 
Yuri Bezmenov the KGB defector outlined the four stages of ideological subversion back when Putin was a young operative selling Bata Bullets in Wellington, 1. demoralisation, 2. destabilisation, 3. crisis, and 4. normalisation. I think we're in stage 3.
With stage 4 trying to be achieved to make any of this seem normal. If that gets achieved, we’re fucked

How did they achieve that with Dems in power for 13 of the last 12 years?
 
imagine having to be accountable to your employer. No wonder public servants are having a meltdown
Hundreds of employees walked out when he took over twitter, but this is donor ship on steroids. The only reason he’s in this role and dictating this sort of shit is because of his wealth. The emperor has no clothes, which is a hideous thought when considering trump

Liz Truss is now in David Icke territory of lunacy. A complete idiot with zero self awareness. She spends a lot of time in the states because she gets paid to appear at these far right rallies

Nobody has properly evaluated if the people being dismissed are doing a good or a bad job though. It’s completely indiscriminate and designed to grab headlines. Idiots are falling for it though

Maybe not indiscriminate if you are a black leader of the armed forces or a female head of the navy

I was talking to a public servant yesterdays whose job is to manage contractors to a govt department.

Their department has had pressure put on them to increase performance and get more out of the contractors for less. It’s not going well and he fears for his job. The contractors are already claiming they are underpaid and refusing to change threatening to simply stop providing services to this department.

Digging deeper the contractors have been tied in red tape with ‘best practice’ standards applied to them - layers of red tape, paperwork, compliance costs, H&S requirements, etc so that they spend more time doing compliance for the job than the actual job. They are so inefficient through govt requirements they are barely profitable despite international comparisons suggesting they are over paid.

The guys tearing his hair out because a blanket ‘improve efficiencies’ doesn’t fix the systematic problems causing NZ to be excessively expensive and unproductive.

The govt is targeting low hanging fruit but NZs first world ‘best practice’ has a hand break like opportunity cost that an economy build off primary produce can’t sustain.
 
Trumps not the boss of the federal government? Bizarre they follow his executive orders and directives then.
You seriously think they're going to read every email?

It's a schtick to fool complete numpties and it works with that base (& with you obviously).

No comment on the blatant disinformation Musk has been peddling on the government finances?
