Gas is $4 a gallon? We have discovered aliens!

My gas was $3.09/gal this morning Still too expensive but not exactly going to bankrupt me.

SoCal gas is at least $6.85 a gallon.

New distraction is coming in! All eyes on this now! Man, they really don't think much of their voter base or ordinary people for that matter.

As Trump said, people won't need to worry about elections after 2024... I wonder if Hitler ever said that in the 30s..

I'm not a gambler, but there should be a thing on those gambling sites on whether this is about extraterrestrial life or mexicans

Ask and ye shall receive: https://manifold.markets/benmanns/aliensgov-prop-bets (play money). I set this up so multiple can resolve and other users can add additional speculations.

Oh my god.

EDIT: oh it's play money, good website

Objectively, which is hard to say because I’m just obviously not in this position, but if I were in the United States legally and I’m looking at three options… 1. I take self-deportation offer. At Christmas it was $3000 a person, but usually $1000, a commercial plane ticket anywhere, and I can come back to the US upon following the legal method. I can say goodbye to people I can sell my things. I can do this on my ow…

This administration changes its tune based on what business/tech leaders are telling them[0][1]. There's no doubt that ICE will be used for selective enforcement (as we've seen them used at American protests) but some immigrants are probably staying based on the reality that business interests are more important.

Also, I would be hesitant to say that immigrants being targeted by ICE are "illegal" as we saw some be detained/deported after speaking out against the war in Gaza[2]. Also, a lot claim asylum at the border which is a legal process.

That process in reality takes a really long time due to the federal immigration system being strained. The 2024 border bill tried to address this by adding more immigration judges and asylum officers but Trump told Republicans to kill it because it'd make Biden look good. So far all we got was a massive DHS funding increase that allowed Kristi Noem to funnel $100M+ to herself and her friends and kill two American citizens with ICE.
