I always knew the tactics of the US War On Terror would come home to roost. I'm honestly surprised it took as long as it did for it to happen. Anyway, this reeks of the same justifications they used to go to war in Iraq and their justifications for "extraordinary rendition" as well as "enhanced interrogation." No evidence, just vague justifications for what they need to do to "keep America safe." Saddam Hussein never had WMDs and the left isn't a terrorism network. They'll falsify evidence just like they did with Iraq and Saddam.
The good ol' imperial boomerang.
I think this goes even further back to the second or even the first red scare.
Hey I just pissed on McCarthy’s first grave yesterday
In the name of "security" we are accessing any and all private information about you including your voting records to ensure America is safe from the people we are making up.
We really should have non-pardonable offenses that politicians would get removed from their post and or arrested after an investigation from an outside non partisan entity.
Say knowingly lying to the public about something. Removal, 1 year prison, and no ability to hold any public office after.
So when a politician speaks, it would actually have to be trustworthy... Something that has not happened a single day of JD Vance career.
