Omg. I just realized this is really from The white house???!!??
I thought this was some stupid meme… Omg
I just can’t even…omg
cruelty is the point. guns.
You’re not alone. I see this shit and I say aloud “woww” and pass my phone to my partner. I’ve never seen such unhinged shit from the official white house communications team.
This is stuff any self-respecting 15yo would be embarrassed to post. I know they have been posting other cringey memes recently too. Seems like the person managing the account came straight from 4chan.
You should see the other stuff they post now: https://xcancel.com/WhiteHouse/
What is xcancel?
A service that proxies and cleans xitters content so musk doesn’t get the money from the few advertisers left in that cesspool
It also enables a few of the older features, like being able to read replies to a Tweet, now that the website formerly known as Twitter bars it if you’re not logged in.
Thank you, that sounds great
Oh dear fuck i looked at it and they made a covid.gov site that claims that covid originated from lab in Wuhan and was leaked. That fringe conspiracy now being peddled by the white house.
That’s actually not unlikely, but the way china handles critical information we will never be sure.
I imagine they also have other false claims on there that are much worse though.
Yeah, it’s one thing to make it known that it is a possible explanation, it’s another to claim that it is a fact without evidence.
I’m gobsmacked.
Ever time I think Republicans have hit bottom they find another shovel.
*pickaxe
*fracking drill
They’re throwing Trump supporters a mental gymnastics buoy they can hold onto in this horrible situation that clearly makes Trump look bad. They just want something to believe in that doesn’t conflict with their current political views. They don’t care if it is true or not.
Simply unworthy of any country. These are truly rogue state posts directly from the official White House account. Malicious. Vile. What a disgrace.
One potential plus of the Trump administration is that its communication style inadvertently gets people to notice about institutional media what Chomsky has been discussing for decades.
I wouldn’t want to live in a country where mastheads and public offices are on the same page.
They might think this is edgy but it’s actually very damaging to the US. Not only will no other country ever take this administration seriously, but if the government breaks their own laws, then other countries will also feel comfortable breaking laws
MS-13 member according to which judge and jury? What exactly is he charged with? As long as we’re ditching the justice system, we the people might as well make some extrajudicial convictions too.
“MS-13” here just means “brown people.”
The Onion truly is fucked, reality has become more evil derp than they could ever make up
So he visited him and then what…. Back into the cell? They didn’t take him right then and there?
I had the same thought, this is so peak lib.
You’re there with the guy, and you have a court ruling saying facilitate his return. Do that, by cuffing him to yourself, and demanding they let you both walk away. El Salvador don’t want heat from abducting a US statesman.
But no, this is just a photo op it seems.
This post is so stupid it’s embarrassing
You’re embarrassed by the difference between performative politics for the press vs meaningful action to force change? Me too. If US democracy has any chance of survival we need far more of the latter, right away.
You are right. Please pm me your name and address and if you are ever deported to a torture camp in a foreign country I will let all senators know that you don’t want them to visit and will only accept help that meets lemmy.ml fever dream standards.
You are right.
Thank you.
lemmy.ml fever dream standards
I have a suggestion for where you can place this baseless instance bigotry. Anyway, don’t concern yourself kiddo, I’m a red-blooded American. They aren’t deporting me, or anyone in my community, without taking serious casualties.

🤣🤣🤣
I do appreciate the idea of the handcuff thing, but they’d just cut it off or pick the lock.
Even if they don’t abduct him, they’d probably be more willing to rough him up.
Right, you the hero would cuff yourself to Garcia. Then the guards would simply stop you (possibly before you’d even manage to do it), unlock or cut the handcuffs if needed, forbid you from entering the country ever again if not outright prosecute you, and possibly put Garcia under even stricter control and isolation, to, you know, prevent having people try to get him out.
Because realistically considering the consequences is… liberal.
You know Trump would absolutely tell the El Salvadorans to keep him out of spite. He’d have been fucked.
Imagine official government account tweeting shit like edgy teenager. How can any country of the world take America seriously?
Also they themselves admitted it was a mistake and now thry are furiously claiming he was achtually a drug warlord and he’s not coming back to USA. They aren’t fucking serious.
Is this real? Crazy if so. Or, I guess par for the course…
No blue check mark, so surely this is a joke account.
I want this to be fake. This looks like some right wing troll post or some shit. If this is actually the white house, how embarrassing…
Whitehouse comms is basically just being run by 4chan trolls at this point. Probably where they recruited from.
I went to check it out. It’s 100% real.
I can’t recall any scenario where Trump and his cronies aren’t cringey and childish, so it’s business as usual really.
I think this is going to hurt the White House in the long run. By smearing these people individually, they are highlighting the fact that they are actual humans with life stories, rather than a swarm invading the country.
Implying that elections will have any meaning or impact next year
Nothing will “hurt” them unless there are consequences for their actions.
It’s the White Supremacy House.
