Desperately Seeking Democrats

Yes, it is a list of the stupid things we've done under this administration.


How much support has the US gotten for what it did in Venezuela or Greenland? Aside from Russia (justifying Ukraine) and China (future Taiwan invasion)


So if you are not here legally and you're not a criminal, what are you?


I think operates on the corollary: If you're not white, you probably are not a citizen. But that is not what I referred to:
Donald Trump's administration has implemented significant restrictions on legal immigration through executive actions, including new country-specific travel bans, enhanced vetting, pausing visa processing for certain nationalities, limiting refugee admissions, and increasing fees, aiming to make immigration more difficult and prioritize perceived national security and self-sufficiency, affecting diverse groups like visa holders, asylum seekers, and family-sponsored immigrants.​


In 2025, the federal government increased its involvement in sports, education, and voting, driven by executive orders, proposed legislation, and agency enforcement actions. These interventions focus on setting national standards for college athlete compensation, restructuring educational curricula and funding, and implementing strict proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration.

1. Federal Role in Sports
The federal government has intervened to manage the rapid changes in college athletics, particularly regarding NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) and athlete employment status.
  • "Saving College Sports" Executive Order (July 2025): President Trump issued an order directing federal agencies to preserve non-revenue and women's sports, curtail third-party NIL "pay-for-play," and define the role of federal oversight.
  • NIL and Revenue Sharing: The order directs the Secretary of Education to use "regulatory, enforcement, and litigation mechanisms" to enforce these policies, impacting how university athletic departments with over $125 million in revenue operate.
  • Transgender Athlete Restrictions: The administration has taken action to restrict transgender women from participating in women's sports, including through Department of Education Title IX enforcement and USCIS visa restrictions for athletes, as seen in challenges to Maine's policies.
  • Proposed Legislation: The SAFE Act was introduced in September 2025 to federalize NIL regulation, create a national agent registry, and allow NCAA conferences to pool media rights.
2. Federal Role in Education
The administration has moved to increase federal influence over curricula and funding, often with a focus on school choice and alignment with workforce needs.
  • Curriculum and Funding Control: The administration has withheld over $4 billion in K-12 education funding, impacting programs for teacher development and mental health, while promoting school vouchers.
  • DOE and DOL Partnership: The Department of Education (ED) and Department of Labor (DOL) are collaborating to align K-12 and postsecondary education with workforce training, with the DOL taking a greater role in managing educational grants.
  • Title VI and Title IX Enforcement: The Department of Education is moving to streamline procedures for enforcing Title VI (race) and Title IX (sex) to terminate federal funding for institutions deemed in violation of federal standards.
  • Proposed Restrictions: Policy initiatives aim to restrict federal funds from supporting "political activism" on college campuses, including certain voter registration activities.
3. Federal Role in Voting Decisions
The federal government is pushing for uniform, stricter voting standards across states, primarily through the proposed SAVE Act and executive actions.
  • Proof of Citizenship (SAVE Act): The SAVE Act proposes amending the National Voter Registration Act to require documentary proof of citizenship for federal elections, which would restrict local election administration.
  • Election Integrity and Oversight: The administration has advocated for increased federal oversight of voter registration and list maintenance, including potential penalties for election officials who register ineligible voters.
  • Rescinding Federal Work-Study for Voter Jobs: The Department of Education ended policies that allowed Federal Work-Study jobs to be used for voter registration and assistance activities.
  • Project 2025 Initiatives: Proposed strategies include utilizing the Department of Justice's Criminal Division to investigate "voter registration fraud and unlawful ballot correction," shifting focus away from the Civil Rights Division.
Key Drivers of Federal Intervention (2025)
  • Executive Orders: Used extensively in 2025 to create national policies on college sports and voter identification without immediate legislative approval.
  • Funding Conditioning: The threat of cutting federal funding is used to enforce compliance with federal standards in both education and, indirectly, to influence state-level, non-revenue sports decisions.
  • Agency Reorganization: The Department of Labor is taking on a larger, non-traditional role in education policy to emphasize workforce alignment.


You really need to get out more!

As of 2025–2026, the power of the U.S. federal government is undergoing a significant, proactive expansion, driven primarily by efforts to centralize authority within the executive branch, alongside a, increased federal workforce that reached over 2 million employees by 2023. The current administration is taking steps to reshape the federal bureaucracy, aiming to increase presidential control over independent agencies and personnel.
Key Drivers and Methods for Increasing Federal Power
  • Expansion of Executive Authority: A core focus is increasing the president’s ability to shape independent agencies, including proposed changes to how board members are fired and the consolidation of authority.
  • Restructuring the Civil Service: Efforts are underway to replace independent civil servants with personnel aligned with specific political ideologies, which critics argue undermines the traditional independence of agencies like the FBI and the Department of Justice.
  • Using Fiscal Controls: The federal government is utilizing its spending power to influence state policies, such as threatening to cut transportation funds for states that do not align with federal priorities.
  • Increased Workforce and Spending: The federal workforce grew by more than 140,000 employees between 2019 and 2023,, often driven by, major investments such as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
  • Reorganization Initiatives: The administration is actively reshaping government efficiency, including proposals that could allow for faster, more direct control over agency operations.
  • Legal Challenges to Agency Limits: The Supreme Court is reviewing decisions that previously limited the president's power,, signaling a potential shift toward greater executive, discretion.
Contextual Trends
  • Political Polarization: While 62% of Democrats generally support concentrating power at the federal level, 78% of Republicans favor concentrating power at the state level, creating ongoing tension regarding federal overreach.
  • Historical Precedent: These efforts follow a long trend of expanding federal influence in areas such as, commerce, civil rights, and healthcare, with significant,,, increases occurring during, crises like the Great Depression and the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Authoritarian Concerns: Critics have warned that these measures, including, attempts to control, the Department of Justice and, use federal law enforcement for, political purposes, could, pose threats to, democratic checks and balances.


Got a quote of Biden threatening lawfare? There are plenty of Trump as you know.


Which social media platform did Biden control? At least you admit Trump is keen to censor his opponents.

I repeat, TRUMP WAS NEVER CONVICTED OF RAPE, STUPID LYING SACK OF SHIT ************.

The rape case you are referring to WAS CIVIL, NOT CRIMINAL. Damn you are a stupid ************.

It was also a bullshit case of people hating Trump. Same thing with his criminal cases. We all know they're bullshit. That's why he's president again!

Want me to calm down? Stop your ******* lying you lying sack of shit ************. ******* democrats can't tell the ******* truth if it slapped them in their child molesting faces.

Willing to admit you lied?

Guess not. That would require integrity, never seen a democrat (Besides what's his face, the one who had a stroke and became a republican) who had integrity.

Biden's a ******* convicted rapist too, then. So is Clinton.

You have no flow Mr. maga-turd, only a cacophony of curse words, very telling of your intellectual capabilities, similar to your cult leader, the convicted criminal trump, an octogenarian with the vocabulary of a 3 year old toddler, and the intellectual acumen of a platypus 😅

In July 2023, Judge Kaplan said that the verdict found that Trump had raped Carroll according to the common definition of the word, i.e. not necessarily implying penile penetration. In August 2023, Kaplan dismissed a countersuit and wrote that Carroll's accusation of rape is "substantially true".

Of course the Democrats installed the Iranian mullahs and paid for their nuclear program......you dolt.



1. "....Ronald Reagan, Pope John Paul II, and Margaret Thatcher worked together, openly and not so openly, to bring about what most experts agreed was impossible — the swift dissolution of the Soviet Union and Marxism-Leninism."

millions by ending communist rule and granting independence to 15 constituent republics (like Ukraine, Baltics, etc.), while also allowing emigration, especially for Soviet Jews (over 1 million left 1988-1992) and releasing political prisoners,......




2. Democrat Jimmy Carter installed the current regime in Iran.
Carter viewed Khomeini as a religious holy man in a grass-roots revolution rather than the founding father of modern terrorism. U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young said, “Khomeini will eventually be hailed as a saint.” Iran Ambassador William Sullivan, said, “Khomeini is a Gandhi-like figure.” Adviser James Bill proclaimed in a Newsweek interview in 1979 that Khomeini was not a mad mujahid, but a man of “impeccable integrity and honesty.”
. .....in one more stunning example of naïveté and poor judgement, Democrat Jimmy Carter installed the blood thirsty Khomeini in place of the Shah.




3. And when the Iranian people tried to overthrow the insane radicals:
....the U.S. squandered an opportunity to undermine the government established by the Ayatollah Khomeini three decades ago.
In the Arizona GOP debate last week, Santorum noted that "we did absolutely nothing to help" the Green Revolution. But "when the radicals in Egypt and the radicals in Libya, the Muslim Brotherhood ... rise against either a feckless leader or a friend of ours in Egypt, the president is more than happy to help them out."
....the Islamist regime "with its apocalyptic constitution will never give up the atomic bomb" also contradicts conventional wisdom that the Green movement wants a nuclear Iran."
Mideast: During their brutally suppressed protests in 2009, Iranian freedom fighters sent the White House an urgent memo calling for help. Under Obama, America ignored it. 'So now, at this... Read More

4. Democrats more than doubled down in support of the maniac's aims:
Hussein Obama:
March 6, 2012, press conference: "And what I have said is, is that we will not countenance Iran getting a nuclear weapon. My policy is not containment; my policy is to prevent them from getting a nuclear weapon -- because if they get a nuclear weapon that could trigger an arms race in the region, it would undermine our non-proliferation goals, it could potentially fall into the hands of terrorists.”

Then he guaranteed Iran nuclear weapons, guaranteed no inspections, sent them a pallet with $400 million in cash, and released another $900 million to them.....and his puppet, Biden, removed sanctions that forbid them selling oil to China.

Democrats lie about everything.





5. In June, the US carried out strikes against Iran's nuclear sites on Trump's orders.

American officials later argued that the strikes had significantly set back the prospect of Tehran building a nuclear weapon - a claim disputed by Iran.
