The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Reigning in the National Guard is a limit, but no much.

As others have suggested, the recruiting effort by ICE, targeting goobers and gun crazies, could easily be converted to produce a force of brown shirts, to terrorize anyone who steps out of line. Pandering to bigots seems to be the regime's approach to falling approval ratings. The goal has moved from deporting some 20M illegals, to talking about revoking naturalizations, and raising the target to 53M. The latest bit from ICE talked about deporting 100M.
