Pardoning Nixon did lasting damage to the union, of which we are suffering the consequences right now, so no.

If this were a Democrat as President, we'd be seeing impeachment, and not just "critics say"

A Democratic president would be facing impeachment votes at every opportunity regardless of what they did. The MAGA party (formerly the Republican party) is no longer a legitimate political movement in the confines of rules and norms. They are a rogue fascist element that seeks the seizure of total power as quickly as possible. They are at war with all of us and they are winning, in part because the mainstream refuses to act like we are at war.

I looked up my example afterwards. It was actually x-ray based, so they wouldn't actually need to expose the device for it to work, and it would have feasibly fit in a van.

The two accomplices were also KKK members and they seemed more focused on killing random Muslims with it and going for Obama was more of an aspiration. But as delusional morons do, they overextended and got multiple undercover agents involved in their plot before they actually did any harm.

Because this image is burned into their minds whenever they think of Democrats. This happened under Clinton.

Fun fact they actually foiled a plot on Obama where the guy was building some sort of microwave-based "death ray." He was going to mount it inside a panel van.

I think it was CBD oil but this is the gist of it. Went to prison for years. Started a podcast afterwards, maybe streamed on Twitch a bit, but he can never legally touch a firearm again.

Should also be mentioned that he is not Russian at all and is just some kid from Georgia playing a part, and I am surprised by how many people don't realize that.

The founding charter of this country was built for slaver plantation owners and other mercantilists, not the average person. I'd argue that hardly anyone alive today truly values the founding intentions, only their distorted interpretations of such.

With that in mind and the current state of things in mind, I think a Balkanization of the US, if not North America, is inevitable.

Evangelism is essentially a doomsday cult, they want to accelerate the End Times so Jesus will come back and bring the faithful to the Kingdom of Heaven while the sinners get left behind to burn.

It's almost like promising people an afterlife is supposed to make them not care about the awful state of their earthly lives (that those in charge inflict upon them).

Yes field offices are a thing, but DC likely houses the most senior analysts and leadership. When Kash says that the JEH office "isn't safe" I'm inclined to believe he isn't strictly lying, but that he's omitting what he's trying to keep his goons safe from.

And the deportation effort desperately needs bodies. The FBI is already waist deep in that. If you've ever seen photos or footage of these immigration arrests it's alphabet soup: FBI, ATF, DEA...

1. He wants them spread out so it's harder to hold them physically accountable.
2. Why keep them in a DC office when they could be beating the pavement and hurting brown people with ICE?

Metal scissors will be more expensive and likely still take a set and not work eventually, perhaps even sooner than a plastic bit.

I'm something of a prepper I suppose.

Preppers who buy vehicles specifically for doomsday are buying pre-catalytic converter trucks that guzzle fuel but have a reputation for reliability, ease of maintenance, and resistance to EMP events. There is a level of distrust for newer manufacture vehicles, which is not wholly unwarranted.

There's some movement towards accepting ebikes and electric dirtbikes, though. You even see those in the Ukraine war.
