Someone probably tried to No True Scotsman the mod. It was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Or maybe the admins were getting too scary. The politics talk on a sub like that must've been immense. There must've been lots of bans by both mods and admins there. Eventually, the admins would've demanded that the mod get things back on track or the mod will be banned as well.

One problem is how to keep out competition like LEOs and other squatters seeing opportunity.

The other would be how to get through the door without destroying it - sure, you can go at it with an ax, but a destroyed door won't stop wild animals coming in.

But if those issues can be solved, I think it's viable.

Season 5 of America sure is building a lot of hype. I wonder if it will top the Season 4 Finale: A Vacation to the Capitol.

I wonder what a cage match between Trump and a locust from the Book of Revelation would look like.

The US is the Austria-Hungary of our time.

I shall answer, because I am a firm believer in capital punishment.

Death should be given because death should be the punishment for all crime. The white blood cells inside your body agree with me - they are eager to give the death penalty to any criminals infesting your body. There's no pardons or rehabilitation or anything like that; your white blood cells know that there can be no tolerance for crime.

The full quote, if anyone's interested:

I think it’s going very well. It was an operation, like when a patient gets operated on, and uh, it’s a big thing. I said this would exactly be the way it is. Uh, we have 6 or 7 trillion dollars coming into our country, and uh, we’ve never seen anything like it. Uh, the markets are gonna boom, the stocks’re gonna boom, the country’s gonna boom, and the rest of the world wants to see: Is there any way they can make a deal? They’ve taken away advantage of us for many many years. For many years, we’ve been at the wrong side of the ball, and I’ll tell you what: I think it’s gonna be unbelievable. The thing that people have to talk about - we’re up to almost 7 trillion dollars of investment coming into our country, and uh, you’ll see how it’s gonna turn out. Our country’s gonna boom.

And then there's Chuck Grassley, and Trump's psychotic cabinet.

Donald Trump has posted a response to the matter on Truth Social.

I think it’s going very well—The MARKETS are going to BOOM…

He elaborated further with this:

I think it's going very well. It was an operation, like when a patient gets operated on, and uh, it's a big thing. I said this would exactly be the way it is. Uh, we have 6 or 7 trillion dollars coming into our country, and uh, we've never seen anything like it. Uh, the markets are gonna boom, the stocks're gonna boom, the country's gonna boom, and the rest of the world wants to see: Is there any way they can make a deal? They've taken ~~away~~ advantage of us for many many years. For many years, we've been at the wrong side of the ball, and I'll tell you what: I think it's gonna be unbelievable. The thing that people have to talk about - we're up to almost 7 trillion dollars of investment coming into our country, and uh, you'll see how it's gonna turn out. Our country's gonna boom.

Trump is one of those people who thinks that saying it enough will make it true.

It's because the entire penguin species is plotting to overthrow the United States, and by extension, overthrow Trump. Obviously, Trump had to show the penguins that he isn't going to tolerate their interference.

The current election is done, but there will be more in the future. I believe he's referring to those.

Trump has this to say:

VOTER I.D. JUST APPROVED IN WISCONSIN ELECTION. Democrats fought hard against this, presumably so they can CHEAT. This is a BIG WIN FOR REPUBLICANS, MAYBE THE BIGGEST WIN OF THE NIGHT. IT SHOULD ALLOW US TO WIN WISCONSIN, LIKE I JUST DID IN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, FOR MANY YEARS TO COME!

Sounds like Trump has plans to make sure people like Susan Crawford don't get elected in the future.
