The idea is solid, but if Trump decides to give more weapons to their ICE agents?
That's how you deal with any home invasion. That said, there is clearly more to the story.

Oh look it's POSOTUS' gestapo in action again
This is clearly man made fire, the agent who arrest the firefigthers knows the perpetrators. Or worse.. he was on the group which caused that.

And that damn fire is still burning, and will probably burn until the fall rains come. It's about 25 miles southwest of me as crow flies. Air quality changes daily.
What makes worse is... why stopping the labor of the firefigthers? maybe to cause destruction to the rest and take the lost land? Of course is insane, but seeing the orc in the throne...

They've got quotas to meet.
and look, I am certainly not the only one thinking that.
Florida taxpayers may lose $218M on 'Alligator Alcatraz' as judge orders shutdown
Florida taxpayers could be on the hook for the $218 million cost of converting a training airport in the Everglades into an immigration detention center that may soon be empty of detainees.

Tallahassee votes blue and here are citizen posts in the local newspaper today:
"Alligator Alcatraz cost us 250 million and became useless in less than 90 days. I want a refund, governor."
"So Alligator Alcatraz was a big waste, except to the GOP contributing contractors who got their millions."
"As we all suspected, Alligator Alcatraz was just political stunt."
"Alligator Alcatraz to fold its tents with how many tens of millions of dollars wasted?"

There is no deep seated conspiracy to take the land. It's just plain banal evil at work.
Heck, remembering to Hawai's issue, I expect the same acting from the ones who provoke que fire.

Now, now. The FL county in which I reside had a voter turnout over 82% in the Nov election. 60+% voted for Harris and 38% for Trump. Those of us in that 60% certainly did not get the government we voted for.

Google translate broke on that one.

I'm not blaming you or those that wanted different. It's just that the majority of Florida is getting what it wanted: to light a big pile of money on fire.
Loool!
Ok, I need to explain.
I am seeing the confirmed Hawaii's corruption cases like this one.
Hawaii Bribery Scandal Casts A Shadow Over Lahaina’s Ruins - Honolulu Civil Beat
For years, a local businessman paid off officials in exchange for lucrative contracts. The system he exploited has been left largely unchanged.

And made me think... the fires on that place are supposedly to be natural ones. But the aftermath was totally a way to steal resources... what if in this case the fire is man made in part just to replicate that resource steal??
Sorry if this sounds like a conspiracy but seeing who is in the throne.

As an Arizona taxpayer who is paying for Doug Ducey’s container wall stunt, I feel your pain.and look, I am certainly not the only one thinking that.

Was a nice morning, got my walk in, but about 20 minutes ago, the wind shifted, and I had to shut all my windows. Damn.
To make it relevant, the story about picking up 2 fire fighters is all over the local news here.
I probably shouldn't have but I did. Laughed out loud when I read the article that said someone had used AI to identify masked ICE agents.
An activist "and a group of volunteers have publicly identified at least 20 ICE officials recorded wearing masks during arrests. He told POLITICO his experts are 'able to reveal a face using AI, if they have 35 percent or more of the face visible.'”
Apparently some folks are concerned about the accuracy of the identifications made this way. Of course, were the agents not masked in the first place , there wouldn't have to be any of that concern.

Trump administration trying to pull a fast one and deport a bunch of unaccompanied minors without any sort of process over a holiday weekend.
And apparently that "bunch" of children is in the hundreds, many of which had legal representation and active cases in immigration courts. I can't even envision the complete lack of empathy such a move would take. 😡🙁
