US President Donald Trump has signed an order to strip back the federally-funded news organisation Voice of America, accusing it of being “anti-Trump” and “radical”.
A White House statement said the order would “ensure taxpayers are no longer on the hook for radical propaganda”, and included quotes from politicians and right-wing media railing against the “leftist”, “partisan” VOA.
Waiting for you guys to actually use your second amendment.
Well, there was an attempt but unfortunately he wasn’t a very good shot.
When they send their time travelers, they aren’t sending their best.
I’m not American but from what I understand about the country, that guy may not have been the only one with a gun.
He was wearing a gun youtuber’s tee shirt. The channel is worth a gawk if you enjoy rubbernecking at America’s crumpled wreckage.
It’s a pretty scary idea when the odds are very high that we would just get murdered by police or secret service. And in this hypothetical, if we were to fail, Trump would just bring them hammer down even harder on everyone else, making future attempts much more difficult if not impossible. Until the people are organized on a large scale and collectively convinced this is the only option we have left, we have too much to lose with very little chance of success.
Sure, you’re 100% right here, but he’s coming for guns as well, so waiting might not be an option either. Let’s just hope everyone gets pissed sooner than later
Or the 25th?
Hell, most of them aren’t even using their first ammendment yet.
