U.S. President Donald Trump seemingly discussed the idea of foreign powers taking out California’s most populated cities while delivering a speech at a Republican rally at the Pinnacle Bank Expo in Grand Island, Nebraska Monday evening.

      DC really is a place without a culture. It’s the playground for the influential.

          I’ll give you that. The rest of it is pretty lacking in culture, though.

            Because of his direct intervention along the upper elements, if it was easy for him to do it’ll be easy to purge. If it’s not murder is always an option.

              The fact that an institution allows to be controlled by a fuck like trump means the institution should be destroyed. So fuck the Smithsonian and all the cowards that work there. Hope it all burns down

                While I’d agree with someone with any other title it’s a hell of a lot harder to counter the president especially with groups based in DC since there’s no state level institutions to work as a buffer. Also just shooting the president is quite hard so the violent counter barely exists.

                Also he fired a lot of higher ups outright, the Smithsonian was hit particularly hard by Musk and his fuckboys. Even still a lot of the Smithsonian especially the elements based outside of DC are resisting as best as they can, sorta similar to park services. The problem is it’s scattered and not talked about.

                    Dude I’m a broke ass Californian, I wish I could do something of note but sadly the fuckers doing most of the damage are well outside of my reach. What do you propose folks do that wouldn’t turn into a massacre? Because frankly speaking short of attacking the power grid I legit can’t think of anything folks could do.

                    Please do grant thine divine wisdom apon us poor souls. Otherwise shut up with your trite, the US is a collapsing empire with enough military power and leadership more than willing to level a city like New York. The best idea I’ve seen that’s currently viable is localized community projects and hoping interstate trade collapses and takes the feds with it, everything else would be ineffective in the current situation.
