On Friday night on U Street, an area full of bars and restaurants, a large group of FBI and other federal agents took part in arresting a single man for publicly smoking marijuana, according to witnesses. (Possession of marijuana is legal in the District, though public consumption is not.)
“There’s so much other shit happening in this city, and you guys are arresting him for smoking weed?” an onlooker asks feds, who appear embarrassed, in a video posted by independent journalist Hannah Gais. “For weed!”
These “Feds” should be embarrassed. The fact the weed is illegal should embarrass every person out there. The fact this regime hasn’t been dismantled by common citizens (yk, the ones that “gave” it some sort of authority.) yet, embarrasses me. Handle your sh*t you whiny petulant GOP frass for facts clowns.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
Vice President JD Vance, in a recent appearance at Union Station, said the train station needs National Guard protection against “vagrants,” “drug addicts,” “chronically homeless,” and “mentally ill” people.
Jesus. Imagine actually saying you need soldiers to protect you from the most helpless members of society and not being uncomfortable with who you are.
Also conveniently ignoring that a large portion of those people are veterans who served honorably then got discarded by the government and the VA. I can fucking guarantee you some of the troops currently “protecting” these cities ran up and down the same hills as some of those “vagrants” during basic.
Imagine the level of assistance that could be provided to all of those people for the cost of that press conference.
I don’t recall homeless people being in Union station. There were maybe one or two within a block radius chilling on a sidewalk, but sending in the national guard for that is actually a joke. It doesn’t need the military. Maybe a few social workers.
Criminalizing the helpless is a big step towards dehumanizing them. Once the state has done that, they can get away with treating them anyway they please.
Gotta find a way to keep thos for profit prisons full. Then the prisons “lease” their prisoners to farms, factories, etc since migrant workers are being deported.
Slavers…I mean for profit prisons will make money, businesses get free labor, and prisoners get “work experience”.
I’m GLAD we ELIMINATED my VA Benefits to Afford this!
I’m sure there will be plenty of idiots, including not only unhinged right wingers, but Enlightened Centrists ™ and not a few leftists, that will blame either Democrats outright, or bOtHsIdEs for such cuts.
What do Leftists, moderates, conservatives, and fascists have in common?
A desire to fuck everything up to own the libs.
Some are real, but a lot of those are trolls.
So remember to memorize spells like Burning hands, Melf’s acid arrow, and fireball before you venture into the comments section.
Oh, I believe the same about most of the online ones being paid actors. Though I do know a few people IRL of the centrist/leftist type that constantly, and with nearly every criticism of Taco, the cons/Republicans, seem to be incapable of mentioning something the right is doing without somehow implicating the Democrats, the liberals, etc…
It’s beyond stupid, but…there are definitely some that are not trolls and have bought into the bOtHsIdEs thing. I think it’s because some seem to think this is somehow a intellectually sophisticated take - or at least want others to think so. When all it is that they have fallen into the trap laid for them by the conservative elite and broadcast constantly, for decades, by the “liberal media”.
I know someone like that too, but they’re a conservative who hates trump. They told me that they watch Fox and CNN to get both sides, which is a huge yikes. They’ll go back to voting republican as soon as he’s gone.
CNN is both sides… Hahaha god that’s funny.
That’s usually what I hear when I hear most bothsiderists spinning their bullshit. They want to give themselves and others a permission structure to VOTE REPUBLICAN.
“The Republicans are doing some wild shit - including nearly everything they have been up to during and since Ronnie Raygun, sure, but have you seen the Democrats and their woke agenda? I almost have to vote Republican just to balance out that level of crazy, don’t you know! I mean there are men in women’s sports! What choice do I even have?”
What the leftists and liberals that spout this bullshit are up to, I have no idea. I usually think they just want to come off as sophisticates or something. That’s the ones who aren’t paid trolls.

In my experience, they’ve given up.
Also, don’t mind the downvotes, the trolls are out and about heavy this weekend.

Downvotes don’t bother me much. I find that internet points are worth about as much as BBS points were…
I’m not, sorry that happened. I know you were being facetious but still…
On Thursday in the Mount Pleasant neighborhood, where federal agents appear to have left a dildo in the place of an anti-ICE banner they purloined a week before, residents confronted and pursued three apparently off-duty federal agents, cursing at them and taunting them about the sex toy. “Did you forget your dildo?” the woman shooting the video repeatedly asked.
I hadn’t heard of that one.
Hard to be tough on crime when it’s at an all time low. Seems like the “Agents” are the ones committing the crimes.
“For Weed!”
Boo this man! Booooo!!!
I saw some talk of them reclassifying it, although I have no idea why Taco would do that, since the excuse of weed has been used for decades to crack down on “undesirables”.
Damn “jazz” cigarettes!
By the way - this is what I was talking about, although I wonder if it will be like “infrastructure week”, since he talks about “next few weeks”. Taco is often very full of shit, but knows that very few people will be asking follow-up questions in a few weeks. I don’t know if journalists/news agencies don’t set a remind me kind of thing for every statement, or if they just don’t get the opportunity to ask such things, but in any case, the demons on the right know full well that they won’t be called on their bullshit later.

Definitely infrastructure week. He doesn’t like booze or weed, he would be more likely to reclassify coke.
Plus not gonna gel too well with the crypto brosThe reclassifying it as something other than Schedule 1 would annoy the crypto bros?
Nevermind. I should have read the article.
Let your local magats know how you feel for them subjecting us all to this bullshit. Make them feel as uncomfortable as they have made us all feel. Tail them for no reason while driving, be aggressive or outright shun them. Call them hateful names and mirror their behavior back on them. I have noticed that they get especially uncomfortable when you do it for apparently no reason at all. They end up so confused and scared they don’t even know what to do about the situation.

The worst of them feel more emboldened than ever and I bet they start threatening - if they haven’t already - to call ICE on you.
“Bend over and let them ram you” is what you’re saying
Unsurprising. My neighbors stalk me for weeks when I smoke weed while walking my dog. We have 2 dispensaries on either side of me 5 minutes away. It’s legal to smoke in public…
Id do the same for the sweet sweet contact.
How inclusive of the army to enlist little people, they’re barely bigger than wheels and yet they protect freedom
Clowns
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave,
O’er the land of the free and the home of the mmmphhphhhhldahhh!
