I don't think this administration gives a shit about documents, precedent, or the rule of law.

“Nobody’s going to fight the United States militarily over the future of Greenland,” Mr. Miller told Jake Tapper

“We live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power,” he said. “These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.”

“The United States of America is running Venezuela,” Mr. Miller said, dismissing international treaties enshrining a nation’s right to independence and sovereignty as “international niceties.”

He's not arguing we have some 'legal' right, he's arguing that since we have a military, we can do whatever we want wherever we want so long as no one is able to successfully stop us...

I feel this thing needs to be shared all over the place. Like massively.

So you signed a piece of paper. A treaty with a nation that broke treaties (with native Americans) since the start of its existence and you expect a century old piece of paper with a country that has been breaking treaties for twice that long to be worth anything?

Lol

By even suggesting that these people might have a point, you're playing right into their hands.

Great

When the bombs start dropping, don't forget to wave this piece of paper at them, I'm sure they'll care

Might want to ask the indigenous people how effective pieces of paper are at holding back the US military.

🤓🫱🦋 Is this toilet paper?

Yaah, the guy's got terminal "little man's" disease.

Also, he's a tool.

So THIS is why he moved to the military base...

I wish that directly following that tirade about strength and power, Jake Tapper had punched the absolute fuck out of Stephen's face and made him bawl his Nazi eyes out right in front of the cameras for his Nazi fans to be embarrassed by. Why was big balls the only Nazi that's gotten his ass kicked lately?

Everybody should watch this documentary about the rise of fascism in the US.

It's more relevant than ever.

I think historians looking back (assuming there are any) will say we're already in the early stages of WW3. These are the opening moves of a global conflict.

I just want to engineer green energy stuff and help people keep their lights on without destroying earth in the process, like I never signed up for any of this shit and I'm not ok with any of it.

I want to destroy this admins legs so we can take a breath and have a talk amongst ourselves, this shit is getting wildly out of hand.

we were the country that prevented anyone else from trying that

And what better way than just doing it ourselves!

One of the problems withamerica their ingrained manifest Destiny belif.

the US is going to make a run at taking over the world

I hope that's not meant to imply that the US is a monolith. This is the US government hijacked by dictator Trump. The American people have not been asked, and have no representation in the current criminal regime.

I'm about the same age and definitely wasn't taught that. I was taught that other countries only remain free because of our protection and the US and the USSR were basically like two crime families fighting each other over territory.

Back to the Future, Aliexpress edition.

Did you miss the US spreading fascism to every corner of the globe. The US already won the war. Every country is fascist with ever growing income gaps. The wealthy won and humanity lost.

Mr Burns vibes

A repeat of Germany annexing other countries a century ago.

People are rapidly finding out that international law is merely a gentleman’s agreement unless you have the military capability to enforce it.

The first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.

Gangster's paradise

Desperate distractions from Epstein and Jack Smith

War is what is going on

Don't worry, Congress plans to hold a vote 3 weeks after Trump starts World War 3 to ask him to please stop.

4. Sell off US debt

Realistically probably the most devastating thing they could do.

He has the ears of the administration that is issuing the orders though. So unfortunately, even if untrue it’s dangerous.

Given that he's taken to living on a military base, I think he knows it, too.

Nazi ballsack

He said in the article, based on "no one's going to stop us":

“Nobody’s going to fight the United States militarily over the future of Greenland,”

“We live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power,” he said. “These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.”

“The United States of America is running Venezuela,” Mr. Miller said, dismissing international treaties enshrining a nation’s right to independence and sovereignty as “international niceties.”

If someone really deserves just getting a beat down, it's Stephen Miller.

The people who talked like that the most are fine with this and the party that enabled them also did everything they could to break it.

In the US you get two options and both are completely uninterested in "firming up the laws" and reining in the power of the executive. Trump can do basically whatever he wants, because after 9/11, Democrats fully supported measures like the Patriot Act that vastly expanded executive power, and when Obama came in after Bush he did nothing to hold him accountable for war crimes and torture, while continuing to use the same tools for largely the same purposes. No president wants to prosecute a former president for illegal activity because that would open the door for being prosecuted for their own illegal activities, which they all perform.

It doesn't really matter if the average American cares about guns or about something else. We've never been given an opportunity to vote on the power of the executive just like we've never been given an opportunity to vote on Venezuela or Palestine or Iraq or Afghanistan or Yemen. The powers that be decide these things, all the voters do is choose which face they want doing it, which aesthetics and justifications will be used for decisions that have already been made.

Conservatives believe that giving food stamps to single moms is the Tyranny they're defending against. The Left strongly supports gun rights too but are dramatically outnumbered by liberals.

Hey now let's be fair, he's been chasing the high of being covered in Little Baby's Ice Cream ever since the company went bust.

Ohhhhh please let it be the other!

It's probably closer to the other way around... Before Trump was even voted in again Miller was out talking about how he wanted to see republican governors deploy their state's national guard into democrat run states, openly calling for military invasion of some states by others...

If anything, Trump is downright moderate compared to the lengths Miller would want to do.
