This shows how scared they are of him. This is a bellwether moment.

I am becoming increasingly sick of seeing the word 'deport' being used by Republicans who are suggesting revoking citizenship and a banishment. It's exile.

lol, they are losing it

Remember when they all claimed they had no problem with LEGAL immigration?

Well yeah, they had a problem with any kind that makes them lose.

They really are afraid. Very good.

Don't Republicans hate New York? You'd think they'd be thrilled with the opportunity for socialism to ruin one of the bluest cities in the US. Maybe they're worried something else will happen.

Do Republicans Know What Communism Is?

Short answer: No.

More precise answer: They don't have a fucking clue.

Most relevant answer: No and they don't really care, but they will still call you a communist and kick you out of the country if you annoy them.

Edit to add archive.ph link if desired.

In 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower signed the Communist Control Act into law. In theory, this outlawed the Communist Party of the United States and banned communists from serving in certain roles.

WTF

[It passed because] many opposed communism because of its explicitly declared and historically demonstrable goal to undermine liberal democracy. In the words of Ernest van den Haag, there was "no place in democracy for those who want to abolish [it] even with a peaceful vote".

The irony of using it here would be palpable

As a perpetually online individual I could swear that "conservatives" absolutely hated "thought crime" and political persecution for their beliefs...

Ohhhhh right, hypocrisy. I almost forgot. "Conservatives" use words as weapons and are only consistent in their inconsistent stated beliefs.

Reminds me of this time last year when Trump was on trial for a half dozen things.

Everyone was all like "ooh it would be so undemocratic to try someone while they're campaigning".

Meanwhile republicans can just uncitizen anyone they don't like.

You can't win if no one is playing by the rules.

I’m calling on the federal government to strip the citizenship of every member and associate of the New York Young Republican Club (NYYRC) because they are a threat to the USA.

ICE needs to step in and quickly deport them before their case can be heard in court.

The mask is off! Strip them of their citizenship and deport them to a third world prison? What a fucked up party they have become.

I've read that Democrats are also looking at arcane old rules to try to disqualify him, so if the MAGA Nazis come for him, don't expect any support from the Democratic Party.

On June 2, New York City Council Member Vickie Paladino, a Republican, wrote: "Let's just talk about how insane it is to elect someone to any major office who hasn't even been a US citizen for ten years—much less a radical leftist who actually hates everything about the country and is here specifically to undermine everything we've ever been about. Deport."

Mamdani hit back at Paladino on X, saying: "Like nearly 40% of all New Yorkers, I wasn't born in this country. I moved here at age 7. It's my home. And I'm proud to be a citizen, which means standing up for our Constitution. Councilmember Paladino might consider reading it."

Great clapback.

Appalling. Only the repugnicans would stoop this low. He’s been American since 2018. If they succeed in this - the US is truly Germany in the early 1930s.

Why do they hate democracy so much?

Having the Government STRIP the Citizenship of Americans it DOESNT LIKE and THEN Deporting them to El Salvador or Libya is called FREEDOM!

The fact that a party so blatantly unconstitutional (and criminal) can get so much support in this country is not a good sign for the future of this nation. I wouldn't invest any hope in things getting better anytime soon. And I mean even when Trump is gone.

Dark future.

Do it. This would trigger the uprising we need.

I hope Zohran gets a group of armed bodyguards. Sooner or later, ICE will try to disappear him.

Yeah that's not going to happen. Zohran Mamdani is in no way a threat to the US. Period.

If it did happen I bet LA this last month will look like a slumber party compared to what will happen as a result of this actually happening.

The White House has framed the upset victory by Mamdani, who could become New York City's first Muslim and Indian American mayor, as evidence of uncontrolled migration...

And by "uncontrolled migration" they mean "brown people getting uppity and not knowing their place."

That's how you know he actually might get something good done.

They really freak out when their carefully cultivated alternative propaganda reality is contradicted by ACTUAL reality, and they have to face the fact that without the ability to cheat, they can't win.

Everyone else asks God to shoot captive bolts into MAGA foreheads but we can't always get what we want.

Wow republicans are all scared little pussies aren’t they?

If he does. Time for even more mass protests. Shut down the streets of New York until his citizenship is restored.

If he does try to do this, Democrats will fall over themselves to explain why they support the action, but quibble on how the paperwork was filed to implement it.

At this point I think GOP is simply a fascist party, which has been hiding behind false patriotism.

They are simply atrociously and with no sense of humanity or ridiculousness. Just pure hatred personified into a shell of human beings.

If I were to be religious I would think that Trump is the anti-Christ and his followers are simply demons.

The national party better figure out quickly that the next election isn't going to be

"Blue no matter who"

It's going to be

"More green than blue or else fuck you too!"

This is the battle that determines our future. If we lose this, it's war, or submission for years or decades, and then war.

That would get so much push back. I think it's more likely Mamdani receives the highest award in journalism l, unfortunately.

Ideologically divided, yes. That old rift between the two ideologies of "try to govern mostly okay" and "where's my check from AIPAC?".

So, to be a republican you must be a whiny little ass baby

128 Democrats were told by their handlers to let trump do yoohoo's dirty work.

Republicans start being revolting, very early in their political careers, it seems. Maybe they are born that way.

If they already claim for citizenship revokal now, one can imagine how bad it can get when there are actual elections coming ...

So fucking sick of the peter pan party

Consider this: if ICE took him tomorrow and disappeared him, what would happen realistically?

What will the average non-bootlicking american will do if this happens? I have hope that this kind of event would be the trigger for the passive majority to actually resist.

If they revoked a U.S. citizens of his citizenship, that will provoke nation wide protests across the U.S., you dont revoked citizenship unless someone has done something extremely egregious, and there are very very few cases of that ever happening in the U.S. (maybe none, I havent looked it up).

I personally will not sit down and just take these wackjobs shit laying down. This country is everybody's, not just the far-right dipshits christofascist playground.

This guy has done literally nothing except want a better future for people. That's not a crime.

A photo of Trump next to a normal (both in looks and mentally) person never stops being surprising, hilarious and disturbing. We all know he both looks and behaves like an absolute clown, but most photos of him are of his goons and/or other dictators (real or wannabes) who all look ridiculous so you don't get that direct comparison.

Repuglicans are stupid beyond imagining

For the sake of consistency, I would revoke the citizenship of everybody who's not a native American. Because ya know, it's in the name... "Native American": either you're one, or you're a terrible immigrant who should be deported.

Including the terrible son of German and Scottish immigrants currently soiling the White House.

Sure, Piss Off 9 Million People surrounding the DC area, sounds like a great idea lmfao.

From a board game standard, political ideologies are like this.

Conservatives see life through the game of Monopoly. They must take everything and have everything and leave others with nothing. If any other player has anything, then they aren’t truly winning.

Edit: The problem with an all or nothing mentality is that it always eventually ends terribly. Either for the player or their victims.

Liberals see life through the game of Jumunji. They see it as all the players must work together to win and if there is even one weak link, we all lose.

Edit: The problem with this mentality is that sometimes, the weak links are just shitty cheaters that don’t want to play but the Libs keep trying to help them, despite losing the game half of the time.

Moderates see life like the game of Life. They believe “wrongly even” that we all start similar and that our choices determine how we end with some winners and some losers.

Edit: Sorry, but some players aren’t worth playing with and moderates find themselves helping the cheaters and then wondering why they are 2nd or 3rd place.

This is more or less unrelated but nonetheless very important:

Should we tell him that his makeup was swapped for a bucket of shit? I’m not sure he’s able to smell it but we can certainly see it.

This all comes back to Americans. We were too soft on the rebels. Gave them back everything and figured they learned their lessons. We should have known better. After the next one, we need to fix this cancer once and for all. We can just send them all to Greenland after they take it over. The south will rise again, they say, but this time. You can rise there and stay there.
