Trump’s 2nd term: American Carnage

[ChemEngr79]

Incompetence is expected with this "leadership"...

 

It will get worse as they continue to break the government's ability to function.

A federal judge in New Hampshire issued a ruling Thursday prohibiting President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship from taking effect anywhere in the U.S.

 

Judge Joseph LaPlante issued a preliminary injunction blocking Trump's order and certified a class action lawsuit including all children who will be affected. The order, which followed an hour-long hearing, included a seven-day stay to allow for appeal.

 

The judge’s decision puts the birthright citizenship issue on a fast track to return to the Supreme Court. The justices could be asked to rule whether the order complies with their decision last month that limited judges’ authority to issue nationwide injunctions.

This is the best example I've seen of a dumbass Trumper costing himself. Electrician working on solar panels is thriving because of Biden's tax credits for solar energy. The salaries of these guys went from 29hr to 39hr. Now they are laid off with no work. Asking this guy why he voted Trump, is #1 reason was immigration. He lives in Maine......lol. He got a major raise because of Biden policy.

From AI this morning...

 

Electrician jobs in Maine are in high demand and readily available throughout the year, with varying pay and experience requirements. While specific monthly trends are not readily available, various online resources show consistent job postings for electricians in Maine, with opportunities for apprentices, journeymen, and master electricians.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency did not answer thousands of calls made to its disaster assistance line after deadly flooding in Texas, documents reviewed by the New York Times show. A person "briefed on the matter" who spoke to the Times anonymously said this was because the agency fired hundreds of contractors at call centers.

 

FEMA laid off these contractors on July 5, after their companies' contracts expired. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem didn't renew the contracts until Thursday, July 10 - which the Times noted was five days after their expiration.

 

According to the New York Times, on July 5, there were 3,027 calls into FEMA from disaster survivors, of which the agency answered 3,018. It was mainly contractors from four call center companies who answered the calls.

The day after these contractors were fired, though, on July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls, and only answered 846 (35.8%). Then, on Monday, July 7, the agency answered 2,613 of the 16,419 calls it got. That's around 15.9%.

Unsurprising. As it is also unsurprising that Trump's response to a disaster in a republican state is relatively open arms.

 

There's absolutely a two-class system under this administration and it's divided by party lines.

I hope they enjoy it while it lasts - we’re coming.

There are no repercussions to worry about. Democrats don't do that.

 

They stick to the law and the justice system to such a degree that they will play it slow and let someone who instigated actual insurrection to try and illegally stay in office delay and delay so long that there's actually no prosecution and that individual becomes president again.

 

They aren't even capable of governing and doing the things they want when they have power.

We're turning into a nation of ghouls.

The Trump administration deported five migrants from Cuba, Jamaica, Laos, Vietnam and Yemen to the tiny African nation of Eswatini on Tuesday, the Department of Homeland Security announced.

 
The deportation flights came after the Supreme Court last month allowed the administration to resume deportations of migrants to third countries that were not their place of origin.
