OK, Boomers: Protesters pivot from Medicaid and Social Security to saving violent MS-13 gangsters

129

A crowd of aging leftists were seen in Wasilla on Saturday, taking part in the national protest against all-things Donald Trump. The protests have gone on continuously since Trump was inaugurated.

Most of the protesters were in their 60s and older, and some of them held disposable cups of caramel macchiatos or low-fat lattes while they stood in their made-in-China polypropylene outerwear and held signs that said, “Tax the Rich,” “Musk Stinks,” and one that thanked Sen. Lisa Murkowski for defending “democracy.”

A predominant theme was protesting the deportation of violent criminal gang members, which they see as illegal. They believe illegal aliens who are members of international terrorist organizations such as Tren de Aragua deserve due process before they are deported.

  1. Man, these ignorant libtards make the intelligent boomers look bad. Wish we could somehow cull them from the boomer nomenclature, lol.

    • You managed to make it to retirement age without knowing what your Constitutional Rights are? Uh… never mind. Enjoy your life, dude.

        • All of them. Apparently Trumpers have nothing but contempt for anyone that would protect the Constitution from your mad king.

          • As a gen x’er, boomers have been like being shackled to a corpse for most of my life. I can’t wait until they are gone. Tick. Tick. Tick.

            Most selfish, self indulgent and wasteful generation in this country’s history.

            • Your parents never taught you about what makes America special. Mine did. Now you’re in a cult. Go figure.

              • Sign of a cult member: when questioned, the member gets hostile and deflects with vague assertions and name calling.

                Sound familiar?

                Anyway, you make these vague assertions. Do you have anything specific you would like to address?

          • The only things Marxists protect are their opportunities to sponge off the labor of others and their self-delusions that the world owes them a living. Soft bellied parasites.

          • “All of them” that’s a laugh.
            Be specific and give examples here CB! I bet you can’t name all the rights in the Constitution.

            How exactly is he “a king” and be specific.

            Clearly you know very little history and how the monarchies operate.
            It should also be pointed out that you had no objection when the previous office holder issued oodles of executive orders (most autopen signed btw) turning existing law on its head.

      • Not one of us Trump supporters has ever said no one cannot protest. We are mocking the lack of reasons or justification of why you are protesting.

        We are asking for valid reasons why you hate President Trump. To date; one of of you has come up with a valid reason. All you respond with is: “you’re taking away our free speech”.

        show us where anyone took away your right to make yourselves look totally stupid in public?>

        • *People are Protesting to Protect Our Constitution and the Rule of Law! How do you know they are gang members if they have Never were given the opportunity to prove their innocence through Due Process as per the Constitution??!! The Constitution applies to ALL regardless of citizenship status.
          *What if the Govt broke into your house in the middle of the night and dragged you away accusing you of a crime when you are completely innocent, Denied your Due Process rights under the Constitution/your day in court, and immediately sent you to a prison camp in El Salvador??!! In accordance with the Constitution, the Govt has to Prove..have evidence of your guilt and cannot simply accuse you.

    • It’s False Narrative to state Liberals are defending M-13 hang members!! NOT TRUE!! NO One is Defending “Gang Members”!!
      🇺🇸 AS AMERICANS WE ARE DEFENDING THE U.S. CONSTITUTION & RULE OF LAW!! The 5th Amendment of the Constitution mandates ALL the Right to Due Process REGARDLESS OF CITIZENSHIP STATUS!
      If the Govt disregards or make exceptions/excuses or Discriminate against one party or persons.. what’s to stop the Govt from Threading on me or you..or other Innocent people who ARE Citizens ??!! Its a Slippery slope. BTW; This is What Hitler did.. It’s started with the Jews and then Other Citizens were victimized and killed.

      • Terri, you can shout and cry all you want, but you’re still a hypocrite. There were quite a few peaceful citizens who were detained for over a year without even being charged. I’m talking about the peaceful protesters on January 6th.

        You do not get to cry “due process”.

        Plus, you are defending violent criminals. And anyone that cannot prove their citizenship is automatically a criminal. Furthermore, Bill Clinton signed a ILLEGAL immigration reform act in 1996 that clearly states ILLEGAL immigrants don’t need due process.

  2. I’m a Boomer. They are not like the rest of us. I’m sick of social media pundits blaming us for the actions of a few. This country has more to worry about with the young punks who fill the ranks of antifa and firebomb Teslas.

    • It’s called ‘divide and conquer’ and the media in general sells a lot of soap by using their agenda-driven spin to further infuriate and turn us against each other.
      As long as we’re hating on each other, we don’t see the wolf that’s eating us.

    • I am too a boomer..Yes…MOST of these ARE NOT the boomers, These are the younger ones that came AFTER and are the latter boomers and continued the protesting.

    • You’re missing the Point. It’s 1000% about Protecting our Constitution & Rule of Law. That’s It!!
      As Americans ALL of Us Must Protect Liberty, Freedom, Justice & the pursuit of happiness. We Cannot Allow the Govt to pick & choose who has rights and who doesn’t or someday it could be you, me or God knows who!
      The Constitution Applies to All regardless of Citizenship status.

  3. It is so sad to see protests aimed at protecting violent gang members, while the same energy is missing when it comes to advocating for justice for the January 6th defendants, Tina Peters, or honoring the 13 brave service members who lost their lives in Afghanistan. These individuals have been denied due process, much like the countless unborn lives lost to abortion. This selective activism is exactly why President Trump secured a landslide victory. Let them continue with these misguided protests—it only further alienates them from the American people.

  4. When people show you who they are, believe them.

    These people stand for violence, breaking the laws, and have a deep hatred for the actual democratic process they claim to defend.

    They do not care about this nation, its people, or its traditions.

    Expect this to be much worse before it gets better.

    • When people cast wide, general aspersions, it shows who they are, what they believe. It would seem that not caring about this nation to you means believing in the rule of law (including not declaring a fake national emergency), believing all people have a right to have evidence presented against them in a court of law, and the traditions of upholding those rights, even when they may not be popular. And it is bound to get worse as the Administration continues to round up people who are in the country legally, and in now in at least a couple of occasions, including American citizens.

      • People who sidestepped the legal process to come into our country then demand due process before being ejected from our country. No, they don’t deserve due process. They can go back to their own country and make things right in their own lives. We citizens work hard to make America the country that it is. Outside invaders come in and benefit from our hard work without having put the time or effort in and you bleeding hearts keep wanting to give that to them. No more!

        • What do you say when ICE is breaking into US CITIZENS’ homes and detaining them?? Or when Immigrants ARE HERE LEGALLY & THEY’RE STILL BE SENT TO EL SALVADOR OR DEPORTED! ?!
          Due Process which is the 5th Amendment in our Constitution gives ppl the opportunity to prove their case. But when rhe Govt Ignores A peron’s civil rights/ the Constitution & Rule of Law, then ppl are wrongly deported or sent to prisons !!

      • Jimmy Carter said the illegal immigration problem was a real problem over 40 years ago and would grow to be a genu8ine crisis? How is it not a crisis when there are millions of ILLEGAL immigrants here who are running free commuting violent crimes?

        • Most of my life I have seen Immigrants come here to become apart of the American dream. Some came illegally. They worked Hard.. shared a house with many other ppl in order to survive and prosper. Many became citizens & built companies and created jobs. Most are Good hard working people and contributors to society.

  5. Suzanne: There are hundreds, maybe thousands of guys, myself included, who look just like the guy in the Red Shirt. We may look like this guy,, but we are REAGAN TRUMPERS ALL THE WAY. Friends, neighbors, even relatives could easily think that Old Hippy is us. For the Record, l am not that guy. I never knew how common the Old Alaskan GEZZER LOOK is till I saw your photo. Guess I’ll have to start wearing a TOP HAT. Thank you for showing us how small the turnout was. Now let’s get CONSERVATIVES ELECTED.

    • Lsd isn’t the problem. Weak minds are the problem.
      Lsd can show a deeper reality, one of which that is beyond your understanding, if you dare to venture.

      • Mostly acid reveals a stupid drug addict looking for something at a cost of years of mental instability – only to find nothing at all but a bizarre high and hallucinations. This is not a useful psychiatric tool, nor a mystical panacea, it is just a destructive, poisonous, drug.
        I agree with Anita’s disrespectful reaction. Some of us old boomers are actually normal…

        • Wow Rich. So filled with fear and ignorance about something you have obviously never tried. It will be a fine day when the old minds of this world finally expire and the newly awakened can show the path forward into the many paths towards enlightenment. Lsd is hardly addictive and only the strong minds can actually understand its functions from within its use. It is your choice to remain ignorant to the many layers of reality, but to cast shade on others who dare to venture deeper only reveals how small your mind is. A pity. There is no wonder there are cultural wars in our society, a lot of boxed in minds defending their meager scraps of understanding.
          Enjoy your pathetic and limited perspective. Lol

          • Cosmic Jester: any and all psychedelic drugs do not automatically open your awareness for you. YOu have to be aware BEFORE you do any drugs. All drugs and alcohol only enhance what you are thinking and feeling at the time.
            If you are a close minded democrat when you take LSD, you will be an even bigger close minded, knee jerk reactionary democrat after.

        • Some creatures are able to dive into the deeper waters of existence, and some can’t even get off the beach side.
          If you choose to ignore the possibilities, that is your choice, and your folly. Not really sure how stating alternative view points makes me a doomer, but oh well. Stay ignorant I guess.

  6. It would be fun to see the reaction if we said, if U set one foot across the boarder, everybody gets a hearing, no matter what, and we’ll cut Medicaid & medicare to pay for it all due to the federal deficit.

  7. They do realize that this MS-13 Gang member was deported because : He committed crimes while here & he illegally entered this country. He has an extensive Rap sheet. You guys want him in your town? Write Trump and tell him you want to sponsor this criminal. You sponsorr him and he lives with you. Within a month or 2 he’ll figure out where the money is to be made in your town and he’ll set up his criminal enterprise in your house. I’m sure you won’t mind if he invites a few of his MS-13 buddies. He needs a crew to traffick underage children, bring in illegal drugs by the ton & set up his protection & collection system. There will be turf wars & drive by shootings. BTW, an MS-13 gang member is in that gang for life. He never gets to get to just walk away and quit. I lived in L.A. for a number of years. They run every single prison in California. Be careful what you wish for.

  8. All I see here are people with no real purpose or motivation in life other than protecting that which they benefit off of without any regard to those who are taxed to death to benefit them. Selfish, the lot of them. They probably have terrible relationships with their kids and wake up every morning with CNN on the television. I was not much for eugenics in the past, but I am starting to get on board with it now. Bill Gates has the right idea of reducing the population with vaccines. Let ‘er rip I say. Only the dumb will follow suit and darwinism shall consume the many fools who follow. The devil is pleased that so many ignorant exist and the furnaces of sacrifice are warmed up and ready to go.

  9. Ah, but these are not Boomers within the least.

    These are Booments, you know, the false feminine variety of Boomers that exist today whether they have XX or XY chromosomes, whereas real Boomers know the difference.

    Booments shall always be confused within their own construct, and actually hold no power within their own existence, as they have no self-worth. They can only gain any individual power within a group setting, which belies the individual power itself, no?

    We Boomers stand for something.

    These Booments simply sit down and whine.

  10. There are over 1,000,000 illegals here that have deportation orders and are done with due process. What is going on has more to do with flaunting our Constitution than performing as Article II intended . When you elect clowns you get a circus.

    • … And when you falsly elect idiots with dementia (Joe Biden) you get lots of mass brain fog amongst Democrats. Those last four years put our country into high speed reverse, almost over the cliff. Thank God for Donald J. Trump, MAGA, and clear thinking Republicans. Happy Easter, everyone!

    • Frank you make no sense here as you wrote:
      “There are over 1,000,000 illegals here that have deportation orders and are done with due process. ”
      Well then the question is WHY ARE THEY STILL HERE?????
      How is removing these individuals “flaunting the constitution” exactly?

    • Bill Clinton, GW, Obama and Biden deported millions of ILLEGAL immigrants without due process. Where was your “outrage” then?

    • PS, Thanks to Bill Clinton, he signed a bill that allowed the President to deport illegal immigrants without due process.

  11. Many of those doing the protesting were raised by hippy parents who, if they went to college, spent all their time sitting in the college building hallways protesting the ban on indoor smoking and singing “we shall overcome” or whatever.

    • I totally disagree. You’re seeing wide swaths of diverse people from various backgrounds come together and Stand up for Democracy & Protect our Constitution against Authoritarian Trump!!

  12. Leftover Vietnam and Kent State protestors. 70 and 80 year olds, rocking chair brigade looking for one last get together for pot smoking hook- ups. The crowd that never grew up. Just grew old and insane.

    • Maybe Vietnam needed to be protested. Our initial bombing raids on the mainland were predicated on false information regarding an attack on the USS Maddox and Turner Joy in the Tonkin Bay. There was no attack. Weather anomalies caused false radar feedback. Didn’t matter. Kinda like “Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. Honest!” Kent State served to illustrate that US troops will indeed fire on unarmed citizens. So it was a teachable moment. Win win.

  13. When I see signs like these the question we should ask every one of these individuals are obvious.
    “Honor the Law”
    Which law is that?
    The immigration laws that prohibit you from coming illegally, or staying here without authorization and abusing our welfare system? The law that states we can send you back where you came from?
    OR criminal law that punishes murders, thieves, drug dealers and rapists and makes all these activities illegal? That law???

    Then you have
    “Justice for All”
    Does that include justice for the murder victim, the person raped by these individuals or the people, who were robbed. Clearly they mean justice only for the select few!

    • You can’t reason with unreasonable people AT it doesn’t work. That group has been a blight on our country since 1964. Dope smoking left wing tards. The only consolation is they are on the short list. Their kids don’t like them if they have any and they’re grand kids sure don’t like them. Pitiful bunch

      • Probably have bongs in car still . Fired up the old bong on the way to the rally . They can’t seem to draw the conclusion that medicaid and our Social Security are at risk when DOGE figured out that 15,000,000 people are receiving Social Security payments who are not entitled . Where do these folks get their mind burning information ? Must be off their news feeds from the handheld devices and I don’t mean their bongs .

  14. The Constitution states only one command twice. The Fifth Amendment says to the federal government that no one shall be “deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law.” The Fourteenth Amendment , ratified in 1868, uses the same eleven words. All levels of American government must operate within the law and provide fair procedures – e.g. notice and a hearing. That’s the basis of the Supreme Court – a supposedly coequal branch – 9-0 order to facilitate the return of Mr. Garcia. Just because you support the policy of deporting dangerous aliens doesn’t mean you have to throw the constitution in the trash.

    • The sixth amendment guarantees the accused the right to a speedy trial. Some J6 defendants were held in jail for FOUR YEARS for the crime of standing on the white house lawn with signs. Biden, Mayorkas, et. al. literally flew planeloads of illegal aliens into the U.S. and purposely distributed them all over the country. I’m not a constitutional scholar, but I’d guess I wouldn’t have to work too hard to find several unconstitutional acts there. But now, somehow, we’re all boy scouts. Yeah, NO. Fire with fire, pal. Eat it.

      • As a former public defender I am aghast at what happened to speedy trial rights under the guise of pandemic era health guidelines which led to plea deals and lengthy “pretrial” jail stays. That said there is no such crime as standing on the White House lawn with signs. See yesterday when anti-Trump protestors stood outside the white house with signs. But we all saw what actually happened – violence against police, destruction and theft of property. Those are certainly crimes. Good to know though if I ever want to take a tour of government buildings I just need a horned hat, zip ties and some bear spray. And yeah – fire with fire is certainly on the horizon.

        • Fact: Large numbers of J6 defendants who NEVER entered the building or got anywhere near the violence (mainly initiated by government operatives) were hunted down by Biden’s FBI, dragged from their homes in the night, and imprisoned for four years “awaiting trial”. BTW NO police officers were killed. If you disagree, NAME ONE. Fire with fire is NOW.

    • All we have to do to respect “due process” is show they are aliens who came here illegally. Those who commit crimes must be punished – after deportation. We have in our midst an army of migrants, some of whom are violent, all of which violated our law to come here – they do not have a right to stay here, though some would be valuable additions to our country. Mr. Trump’s use of a 240-year-old law to deport violent criminal aliens on casual review of lawbreaking is correct.

    • As is often the case with people who either purposely or ignorantly make claims that they know little about, improper citation and quotations are used here.

      The Bill of Rights are amendments to the Constitution and were ratified to clarify the Constitution, just like each and every amendment ratified since. With that being said the 14th Amendment section 1, which is referred to as the Citizenship Clause Doctrine says in whole: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” By skipping over the words you don’t like, it only highlights the fact that you are either being purposely misleading or you are simply repeating information you don’t know anything about.

      The branches of government are not coequal, this is a modern myth. One branch writes laws, one branch enforces laws, one branch judges. Only one branch holds the power to fire (impeach) the others, Congress holds that power along with the power to make changes to the judiciary, and override presidential vetoes.

      Regarding the illegal alien wife beater, likely human trafficker, and gang member known as “Chele” that the left has decided is the cause de jour good luck with that. If somehow you are able to illegally return him to US soil he is still subject to deportation as soon as he steps foot on US soil.

      • As is nearly always the case with supporters of authoritarianism you visualize a rule of law predicated on might makes right – and hypocrisy – in your case skipping over the 5th Amendment which gives all “people” federal due process rights. Which correct me if I’m wrong but criminals and aliens are indeed people.

        The 14th Amendment is a post-civil-war amendment guaranteeing due process and equal protection of the laws at the state and local level. The citizenship clause you speak of was instrumental in establishing citizenship of former slaves.

        It is a myth that branches of government are coequal, unfortunately, Congress, our most democratic institution has ceded ever more power to the executive and the Supreme Court does all it can to avoid weighing in on the actual issues affecting our country deeming them “political questions.” I fail to see the point of your cliff notes description of American government – but congrats on understanding the supposed roles of each branch.

        The current White House is shrewd enough to pick on those with the least amount of protection (aliens), and the least defendable character – but the cause isn’t the individuals themselves but the rule of law – and what’s at stake has been articulated by the President himself when he envisioned deporting American citizens next. Hopefully, when this human being, accidentally deported due to administrative error is given his opportunity to be heard – and hopefully it is determined he is in fact a dangerous criminal. Until then, we have a policy being enacted that is not only intentionally cruel but strains the fraying concept of justice.

        • So where were you when President Obama deported 3 million illegals? Not recalling any great outcry and protests or demands for “due process” then.
          You are correct our concept of justice is fraying, as evil doing criminals get treated far better and garner more attention than their victims.

    • So hokelbaeri this means the tax payers are supposed to provide everyone a job. ?? And hand out free money to people that refuse to earn their own ??

      I don’t know why this is so hard for ignorant people to understand, when your business or country is going broke you thin everything out. Then you start re hiring when things recover, this is a normal private sector strategy to stay in business, this government of ours is so screwed up it will be a wonder if we ever recover. Unchecked crooks in the past are destroying our future.

  15. It’s amazing how bitter and disparaging this author can be sometimes. Definitely written with the spirit of Holy Week and Easter in mind.

    • It racks up internet points, I wonder what her Six Figure Salaried Public Broadcating executive husband thinks ? What’s really hilarious is that the owner/publisher is a Harvard educated elitist millionaire who now resorts to begging on the internet in order to support his wonderful endeavor. They’re really special people, no, really, they are.

    • I was there at the Anchorage hate-fest. Downing was being charitable. Those protesters were astonishingly ignorant hateful.

    • Have you ever thought about writing a nice fat check to Suzanne for say, $1000? She prints your garbage and disrespectful, ugly comments more than anyone else here at MRAK. You are a dishonest hypocrite, Dog.

  16. Garcia illegally crossed the boarder into our country, and never became a citizen. He is and has always been a citizen of El Salvador. Now he has been returned home. The President of El Salvador says he is MS 13, and wants to keep him in prison. The U.S. government has no standing in this matter. So move on.

  17. These folks are out there trying to protect:

    YOUR Medicare and Medicaid
    YOUR Social Security
    YOUR right to due process
    YOUR right not to be deported as a citizen
    YOUR right to a Writ of Habeas Corpus
    YOUR strong economy and YOUR affordable prices
    YOUR medical research that will cure YOUR diseases
    YOUR rule of law that protects YOU and YOURS
    YOUR free speech

    Honestly, I don’t know what you’re all b*itching about. One would think that you’d be out there on the line with them.

    But since you aren’t, let me remind you of one thing: The abhorrent practices Trump is trying to put in place work both ways. Once normalized or legalized by SCOTUS, they can be used against you when you are no longer in power. And that day will come. So be careful what you wish for, and what you advocate for.

    But I do agree with you about low-fat lattes. They’re disgusting.

    • I wonder if you actually believe that all of those things are what they are standing on a street corner waving signs and chanting for. I wonder if they actually believe that all of those things are what they are standing on a street corner waving signs and chanting for. If so, how horribly misguided for all involved.

      • He does. He is psychotic. CNN watcher.

        Trump has done nothing to social security
        Medicaid or Medicare

        What he has done is shipped illegals out. Key word being illegal.

        As an American citizen WE can’t just go walk in to any other country without be invited or we would wind up in prison or worse. Australia, New Zealand you need to bring a skill and a pile of cash or you can’t stay period. As a resident. Why do we let people walk right in.? Then give them money and a cell phone ?? Bizarre beyond words.

    • Gosh your awfully funny, or you have been living under a rock drinking Kool-Aid. If you believe everything you have said.
      They say if you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it.
      You sound like Chicken Little, “The sky is falling”
      Don’t worry be happy.

    • You are the only one that seems to have a brain. It’s unbelievable on the comments. We are from AK . AK was a Democratic State. I met people born and raised here and we all think the same. No where did I see signs supporting illegal Aliens and you are correct, we were polite and supporting all free people. I did not see old hippies about 50 percent were young people. I am only replying to you for I am grateful for your comments and no did not see tons of coffees in hand. We want to keep our country free. Equal rights.
      Thank you. It’s certainly shocking to try and comprehend what the issue is with the comments. Let them go without SS ,health coverage, no rights. Unbelievable.

      • Born and raised here. Raised my children here, grandchildren are being raised here now. And I don’t agree with you. You don’t get to sit here and claim that Alaskans who were born and raised here all agree with you. We most certainly do not.

        Let me ask you a question, if you agree with WtD’s list, why were you not protesting in the streets when Biden was president and inflation really started to escalate? Where was your concern for a strong economy and affordable prices then? Where was your concern for the rights of J6 defendants and their own due process? Some of those defendants are still awaiting hearings and trial? Where was your protest in the defense of free speech when people spoke out about COV19 vax injuries and questioned things like masks and keeping six feet apart, ‘science’ which has been debunked by Fauci and Birx, the very people who insisted it was science based? People like you weren’t interested in keeping this country free then. People like you wanted to punish people who refused to wear masks because they knew it was absurd. People who didn’t want to be experimented on with a rushed jab. You trusted the government then, you said government was there to help us, to protect us, that they knew better. Why is that? Is it because it was your people in charge? People like you wanted to punish people like me by driving them out of society for not conforming and asking legitimate questions. People like you didn’t care out equal rights for us. People like you belittled us and called us uneducated. People like you felt we were beneath you. And you know how I know people like you felt that way? Your first sentence: “You are the only one that seems to have a brain.” People like you degrade and dehumanize those you don’t agree with. Your hubris betrays you.

        People like you are hardly warriors for the underdog. Your outrage is situational, as are your ethics.

        I think this is strictly what it appears to be. Democrats using any excuse to protest as long as the party in charge isn’t your own. I saw some of those young protesters out there yesterday. Wearing t-shirts about ‘What would Jimmy Carter do?” and carrying signs against concentration camps. She wasn’t old enough to be alive during Carter’s abysmal administration and clearly never learned about the failures of his tenure including gas lines and inflation. Those young people you’re so proud of are products of a failing school system, but don’t take my word for it, the ASD’s own report cards show their shortcomings. Go check out literally any school in the district and see how few children can read or do math at grade level. But then people like you blame the parents for the district’s abject dereliction. But one thing this district does well is produce useful idiots with stupid signs to populate protests so you all feel like you’re superior. Well done.

        I don’t plan to rely on Social Security to be there for the entirety of my retirement years. Ditto Medicaid and Medicare. And in case you haven’t noticed, since the Affordable Care Act fewer people find healthcare affordable. You will never admit to the number of people struggling because of policies that Democrats enacted. That’s how people like me know people like you are phonies.

      • I lived in Alaska my entire adult life, and never thought I lived amongst people holding some of the views expressed on this website, especially in some of the comments. Once the shock passed, I was left with a deep sense of sadness. These are not the Alaskans I remember.

      • No Linda. You don’t want equal rights. You demand equal outcome. The wailing and gnashing of teeth people like you engage in clearly illustrates your entitlement mentality. No more participation trophies for you.

      • Linda; you cannot be talking about Whidbeythe Dog, The man is totally clueless – and a liar.

        None of those items he posted are true.

        There is zero evidence of that happening.

    • Ummm, WTD, Kilmar Garcia is NOT an American citizen. He is an El Salvador citizen. America gave him a free plane ride home.

      • I didn’t like them but I respected them all, as I saw it was for the common good. Just part of being a citizen…

            • Got news for you, Dawg; thanks to Bill Clinton, the Federal government does not need to apply Due Process to deport ILLEGAL immigrants.

              Plus, your hypocritical a// probably supported Clinton signing that act in 1996. Furthermore, you don’t get to cry “Due Process” when you deny it to the January 6th innocent and peaceful protesters.

        • So you’re selective about defending the constitution and rule of law when you think it’s for the overall good of the public? Just clarifying. I am not selective. I always defend the constitution. I just disagree about what are constitutional rights. There is no right to Medicare, cheap Chinese products, or social security. And free speech is not under assault by Trump. Due process is not under assault. Garcia is an illegal alien. You don’t need a court order to enforce the law. Illegal aliens don’t have American constitutional rights.

    • WTD, not trying to pick a fight, so, honest question because you seem like a smart guy.

      What do we do about illegal immigration? Fentanyl crisis?

  18. It would be great if all boomers protested against leaving their progeny in unpayable debt and hated minorities in every western country.

  19. These protesters are some of the dumbest people to ever walk the face of the earth. Reminds me of the days of bleeding people out to try to cure their diseases. Simple question: Do you have unlimited credit to spend whatever you want to without the bill ever coming due? That’s the way this Government of the US and Alaska are operating. The bill has come due and we are BANKRUPT. Get used to it and act accordingly. Printing more money to pretend we are not just isn’t good policy and will lead to total collapse. It appears Barry was right when he said that the average American voter is a MORON.

  20. To Dog: Propaganda from Department of Imaginary Concerns and fear mongering to drum up support to get Dems back in power. Any checks done to see if anyone being paid or incentives to protest?

    • Perhaps we are using abundance of caution to inoculate our country from violent gang activity that came from another country. If it saves just one life, it is worth the risk to deport an unknown. Consider this immunity kicking in. Next step is for the rest of the immune system to recognize the threats based on the blatant symbolism that is tattooed all over their bodies and follow suit with continued and aggressive response, until we reach herd immunity.

    • I need to repeat the fact that in 1996, Clinton signed an Immigration reform act that does grant the Federal government the ability to bypass due process to deport ILLEGAL immigrants.

  21. Zack Fields was there. He gave a pathetic speech, for some odd reason about fascism. The guy had to read from notes. Even the crowd was yelling at him to speak up.

  22. Every single Democrat voted against no tax on overtime, no tax on tips, and no tax on Social Security!
    Remember that at the mid-terms!

  23. Amazing that these protestors did not march with signs saying, “Joe Biden, Kamala Harris: obey the law!” or “Compassion for victims of illegal aliens!” when they allowed them inside without proper vetting. Or “One law for all!” regarding the persecution of prolifers and the weaponization of the Justice Dept. Their last resort is the MSM.

  24. Trump. Musk and DOGE are finding out there are no shortcuts in the court of public opinion. People will only tolerate lying until it hits their pocketbook.

  25. To bad there isn’t a vaccine for the Trump mind virus. They love their vaccines so much dart them in the arse with it!

  26. True conservatism is simply Common Sense. The Left is sick in spirit and mind. All the answers are in the Book of Proverbs. A short and worthy read.
    The protesters should be ignored.
