Joe Exotic posts on instagram that his husband was deported by ICE after years of shilling for Donald Trump.
Hahaha, you think a gay dude's getting one of Trump's golden tickets for US citizenship? I mean come on, has he even raped any women? Remember, trans ones don't count!
i absolutely hate this, and at the same time, you're entirely on point here. it's beginning to feel a lot like sex crimes are a rite of passage to the new regime, bonus points if it's a hate crime directed at a trans person
What do you mean "sex crimes"? There's about to be no such thing by the end of the next 4 years. Women won't be able to report crimes
I'm pretty certain they'll still be able to report a crime, but it becomes selectively enforced and used to control people.
Or they encourage victims to speak up, then force them to marry their rapist and remove all agency from them in that marriage to prevent them from speaking about it again.
Or both.
Or something worse than all of the above.
I'm honestly surprised they haven't lowered the age of consent to 12 whilst accusing transpeople of being pedos at the same time somehow.
If you have 5 million, surely you'd just use that to live in a different country?
I think trans ones count if you fuck em over instead of just merely fucking them....
Just saying, my bf wishes he could fuck me as hard as the US Government does
He's gay and married to an immigrant and still voted trump? I knew magaheads were dense but this is neutron star level density!
still voted trump
He's in prison isn't he? He didn't vote
Wait. I'm French so this made my brain fry.
In the US prisoners have their constitutional rights removed?
Yup! In America convicted felons are not allowed to vote in federal elections and depending on the law of the state they are not allowed to vote in state or municipal elections either. As a result of these policies a disproportionate amount of black and Latino communities have had their right to vote stripped away.
I checked it out and about 4.4 million US citizens cannot vote (excluding the real 51st state: Puerto-Rico) including 1/19 blacks. That's crazy, it's as if the country is setup for a one party system from the get go. You don't need huge prisoner cohorts to make the 3% difference needed for you to remain in power while maintaining an illusion of democracy.
This was by design and started shortly after the civil war. During reconstruction when the South was effectively occupied there was a decade or so where it looked like black people might actually enjoy some enfranchisement. But then the dirty compromise happened and Jim Crow took over. Suddenly black people were going to jail for the most minor infractions, and if they couldn't get them to break the law, they just lied and said they did anyway.
German here.
Amazing, right? I found out a few years ago. Between this, gerrymandering and 2 right parties, that hasnt been a democracy for a long time.
So.... Does this mean the current sitting American president couldn't vote in the last election?
He was convicted in a state court, not a federal court, so the rules are a bit different.
Additionally, elections are administered at the state level, rather than federally, so his home state of Florida makes the rules allowing or disallowing his vote.
CNN wrote a piece about it on election day.
they are also legally slaves! the 13th amendment didn't remove slavery completely:
Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
BFE
Citizens in the US don't have a constitutional right to vote. States are granted electors based (roughly) on their population that can vote and are given broad authority in how to determine how these electors are selected. Technically a state could decide how to vote based on drawing names out of a hat.
There's going to be so many fat leopards.
I don’t think Joe can vote from prison.
In some states you can't vote once you leave it either, for felonies. States like Missouri or Mississippi require extra steps like a pardon to get your voting rights back
It's an older meme, but it checks out.
I can definetely still hear this one!
i thought a tiger would eat his face, but eventually turned out to be a leopard
Why would Carol Baskin do this?
Joe Exotic really seems to be leaning into leopards these days.
Wait he's actually gay? I never knew that
How do you deport a husband anyway, doesn't marriage guarantee citizenship?
doesn't marriage guarantee citizenship?
Not really in practice. There are other stories of spouses married to US citizens and being the parent to US babies. These guys are literally ripping families apart. They did it the first time and they are doing it now.
There is a 'path' but the hoops you would have to jump through mean you'll self deport and be away from your family for a very long time(by design). The immigration system is backed up after all. Plus what ever stable job you had will be gone after the ~~months to~~ years long wait.
You cannot change your status if you weren't "inspected on arrival" (have a visa) and you're banned from re-entering the country to be "inspected" for a decade after you leave. So if you overstay your visa you could change to permanent residence since you were "inspected" but if you never had a visa in the first place there's no pathway to legal residence even if you're married to an American citizen and have American citizen children.
I doubt that Joe Exotic has been married at any time in 2025
It seems they were not married as of 1st November 2024
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving piece of shit. Zero sympathy.
This is my favourite one so far. Fuck Joe Exotic.
These people never seem to realize that maybe he was the baddie after all and instead try leaning into it even harder in some attempt to appease him. It's frustrating how frequently this happens.
Is Kid Rock dropping an album with Justin Bieber?
The faces are extra tasty.
“I am never gonna financially recover from this situation.”
If he can get $5 million, does that mean he financially recovered from this?
Good! NO MORE IMMIGRANTS! But if he had $5Million I would also be ok with him coming back because RICH PEOPLE are BETTER then ME!
even my myopic ass could have seen this one coming. this admin was never going to support him
Who?
Joe Exotic is the guy from the Tiger King documentary that went viral during lockdowns. He's a gay republican presidential candidate, a (former) zoo owner, a tiger breeder and illegal seller, and currently in jail for attempting to have a rival zoo owner murdered.
I'm still proud of the fact that I haven't seen Tiger King to this day.
That's an odd thing of which to be proud, but I'm the same way with mainstream music. We just like to feel like we are unique sometimes.
Yeah, doesn't make sense no matter how you look at it.
Trump was exceedingly, vulgarly, and graphically clear that a vote for him was a vote the policy of heavy-handed and widespread immigration crackdowns.
good ol' create problem, sell solution
