They’re trying… But it’s almost performative. I calmed down a lot when they complied with the orders to shut down alligator Auschwitz, now we’ve got ICE whining about how no one likes them, people aren’t coming to their hearings to get picked up, and all that bullshit about denaturalization seems to have been dropped
Don’t get me wrong, it’s still horrible, we need to fight it, and we need to disband ICE and have trials when this is all over… But it’s not the defining aspect of this administration
Those tents and cages in the Everglades cost hundreds of millions to set up, and probably a comparable amount to tear down. Money that was set aside for disaster recovery. The majority of that money went in someone’s pocket
And that’s the real defining aspect of the administration. They’re fascist enough to do fascism, but they’re too busy looting the government for profit to commit to it
Is there a name for the next step beyond perverse incentives?
Because that’s where we are now.
Kleptocracy. They just aren’t bothering to hide the fact that they’re selling off the government for parts anymore
They are ethically clensing America
