I don't get it, we've kept peoples pay the same if not lowered it, allowed housing prices and rent to go through the roof, mandated everyone to go into massive debt to get a school degree, and then told them they are struggling because we told them the problem is they are throwing away all their money on luxuries.

Now they are cutting down on luxuries... (shocked pikachu face).

Tell everyone you knoow: “I Don’t Want to Be Here Anymore”: They Tried to Self-Deport, Then Got Stranded in Trump’s America

Months passed. Her partner was deported. In July, Pérez said, she got a call from someone in the CBP Home program telling her she’d be on a flight out of the country in mid-August. She began packing.

But as the departure date neared and the plane tickets hadn’t arrived, Pérez got nervous. Again and again, she called the toll-free number she’d been given. Finally, somebody called back to say there might be a delay obtaining the documents she’d need to travel to Venezuela.

Then there was silence. No further information, no plane tickets. Pérez registered on the app again in August, then a third time in September, as immigration arrests ramped up in Chicago.

Today, Pérez feels trapped in a country that doesn’t want her. She’s afraid of leaving her apartment, afraid that she will be detained and that her children will be taken away from her. “I feel so scared, always looking around in every direction,” she said. “I was trying to leave voluntarily, like the president said.”

Immigrants Who Tried to Self-Deport with Trump’s CBP Home App Are Stuck in America

Venezuelan immigrants signed up for a Trump-promoted app called CBP Home, which promised a safe and easy way to leave the country, and prepared to leave on their given departure dates. Those dates have come and gone. They’re still stuck here.

Antifa expert at Rutgers University says he is moving to Spain because of death threats

Mark Bray, a Rutgers University history professor who wrote "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook," is relocating to Spain with his family after receiving death threats and harassment¹. The threats emerged after President Trump designated antifa as a domestic terrorist organization in September 2025, when conservative activists began targeting Bray on social media².

The Rutgers chapter of Turning Point USA circulated a petition calling for Bray's dismissal, labeling him "Dr. Antifa" and claiming he was an "outspoken, well-known antifa member"¹. After Fox News contacted him about the petition, Bray received death threats, including one promising to "kill him in front of his students," and his home address was posted on social media³.

Bray, who has taught courses on anti-fascism at Rutgers since 2019, maintains he has never been part of any antifa group, saying "I do not have any affiliation with any antifa group and don't plan to"¹. His initial attempt to leave the U.S. on October 9, 2025, was blocked when his family's flight reservations were mysteriously canceled at the gate⁴, but they successfully departed the following day[^7].

He plans to teach his classes remotely for the current academic year and hopes to return to campus in fall 2026¹.

it was literally a fascist dictatorship for most of the 20th century and my understanding is it's still incredibly fascist

That ended many decades ago, there was a strong antifascist resistance that eventually won, and your understanding is wrong.

There's a shitload of room between "not on the right side of history enough to risk open war with the US and all of its allies" and "literally fascist like the US, Israeli, and Russian governments are"

without reading the article, they were like "um yeah we're not going to protect you though" and pressured them, with Italy, to have them give the aid to the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem to "distribute"

if that's incorrect maybe I'll read it, but

In Spain no goes everybody with an firearm, less nazi idiots. In the EU there is a very strict weapon law. Nothing to do with the US.

If you identify as an "antifa expert" you are at best a liberal, but more likely an american conservative. Fuck off the fewer of you here the better.

The only "antifa" i care about are dead ww2 soldiers, or modern strictly-anti-capitalist marxists.

No, he was literally studying anti-fascist movements throughout history. That makes him an expert in anti-fascist movements, aka an „antifa expert“.

He is an anti-capitalist afaik, but in any case, if you thought he was a conservative, why do you support him leaving the US? Out of sight, out of mind, let him go terrorise some other countries where it doesn't affect you? If it's outside your country it doesn't exist yeah?
