●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Thursday, February 27, 2025 ●● ● Feb 27 [00:00] IsambardPrince No matter how suicidal for our country. [00:01] IsambardPrince Not that it matters what they pass. [00:01] IsambardPrince If Trump doesn't want Medicaid, he'll refuse to spend it. [00:02] IsambardPrince If Trump wants to use Medicaid money to build a fence on the border, and fly immigrants to Cuba, then he'll do that. [00:02] IsambardPrince Every day there's a new "national emergency". [00:08] IsambardPrince MinceR, I'm enjoying a three day ban from reddit for joking that Indians will come to the US any way they can get here. H1-Bs, student visas then disappear into the country, marrying then threatening the wife, and human smuggling. [00:09] IsambardPrince And that some of them complain they sold $60,000 in land in India to get their son here only to have him flown back by the US Air Force. [00:09] IsambardPrince Of course, none of this is racist. [00:09] IsambardPrince It's fact. It's in the news every day. [00:10] IsambardPrince It was a robot that zapped me. [00:10] IsambardPrince Nobody even reads these things. [00:10] IsambardPrince A bunch of Indians must have been pissed and hammered the report button. [00:15] IsambardPrince https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/26/politics/trump-controversial-law-speed-deportations/index.html [00:15] TR Bot Trump prepares to use controversial 1798 Alien Enemies law to speed deportations | CNN Politics [00:16] IsambardPrince "The Trump administration is preparing to invoke a sweeping wartime authority to speed up the presidents mass deportation pledge, according to multiple sources familiar with the discussions." [00:16] IsambardPrince Congress has not declared war since December 1941. [00:19] IsambardPrince MinceR, ICE 287(g) is back too. [00:19] IsambardPrince Which means we need to remain in Illinois if we want to definitely avoid the Gestapo shit from local police who see a brown person. [00:20] IsambardPrince Most people are more likely to interacrt with state and locals than federal police. [00:20] IsambardPrince There aren't that many federal cops and they're spread out all over the country. [00:21] IsambardPrince Most 287(g) is in Florida and Texas. [00:22] IsambardPrince But Indiana is trying to force it on all local law enforcement. [00:25] IsambardPrince https://www.foxnews.com/us/new-york-city-mcdonalds-starts-carding-teenagers-response-crime-people-fight-in-there [00:25] TR Bot McDonald's location in Flatbush, Brooklyn, carding customers in response to crime | Fox News [00:25] IsambardPrince "The restaurant, located in Flatbush, Brooklyn, has experienced attacks on security guards, marijuana smoking and theft of customer food" [00:25] IsambardPrince "The location, which is located in Flatbush, Brooklyn, is guarded by a security guard who checks IDs of young people seeking to enter. Its front door bears a sign reading, "No one under the age of 20 is allowed in this restaurant without a parent and proper identification."" [00:26] IsambardPrince "If youre from that area, you know that McDonalds is horrible," she explained. "People fight in there its not just kids being kids. People get stabbed, a delivery worker got jumped, he passed out." [00:26] nobody IsambardPrince: if you're married didn't this protect your partner with a legal permit to stay? [00:26] IsambardPrince nobody, He is a US citizen. [00:27] IsambardPrince Cheeto Hitler and his thugs don't care. They've arrested US citizens illegally and did not accept their IDs. [00:27] nobody why then "gestapo shit"? [00:27] nobody i was asked by police for my passport several times, i am not brownish at all [00:27] IsambardPrince They're throwing US citizens in the back of unmarked ICE vans. [00:27] IsambardPrince Which is illegal. [00:27] IsambardPrince They sort it out later, maybe. [00:28] IsambardPrince Now they have local police in on it in some states. [00:28] IsambardPrince Illinois has a law that says no state or locals can cooperate with ICE or detain people based only on immigration status. [00:28] IsambardPrince So there's no 287(g) or detention facilities in the state. [00:29] IsambardPrince The police are not even allowed to ask about immigration stuff. [00:29] IsambardPrince nobody, 287(g) is "gestapo shit". [00:29] IsambardPrince It's cops in places like Texas saying "show us your papers" and they aren't even federal. [00:30] IsambardPrince You have to tell a state or local cop in Illinois who you are or give them ID if you have some on you. [00:30] IsambardPrince But they don't run it against immigration databases or haul you in over immigration stuff. [00:30] IsambardPrince It's not the same thing. [00:30] nobody it is regular police on duty to ask for identification, not gestapo [00:30] IsambardPrince There is no law requiring a US citizen to carry ID of any kind, or even tell a federal officer who they are if they are detained. [00:31] nobody i think police too is authorized to hold anyone in custody to confirm identification, in germany [00:31] IsambardPrince There is no federal stop and ID law. [00:31] IsambardPrince They may well find out who you are if they have a reason to arrest you. [00:31] IsambardPrince The FBI has fingerprints on anyone who has ever been arrested in the US, and DHS has them on anyone who has ever been an immigrant. [00:32] nobody i was asked to provide my fingerprints when applying for a travel passport, nothing unusual [00:32] IsambardPrince The only way to shut up and have them not figure out who you are is if you have never been arrested anywhere, never came in on a visa, and have never had a driver's license or state ID. [00:33] IsambardPrince There are some US citizens they'd have a hard time identifying, but not many. [00:34] IsambardPrince There's about 7.5 million arrests in the United States every year. [00:34] IsambardPrince They get fingerprinted. [00:34] IsambardPrince Once there's an FBI file you can't get rid of it. [00:34] IsambardPrince My file is still there, but the reason for the fingerprinting was removed. [00:35] IsambardPrince But they would still know who I am. [00:35] IsambardPrince The FBI claims that they have never investigated me. [00:36] nobody the speeding issue alone, within a crowded city, not some dedicated highway (germany got some unlimited ones even to maxed out) [00:37] nobody there's nothing police could do, with _civilian_ methods [00:37] IsambardPrince You don't get fingerprinted for most traffic stuff, even if it is criminal. [00:37] IsambardPrince If you don't get booked they don't fingerprint. [00:37] nobody and the constitution insists police remains a _civilian_ institutions, not military [00:38] nobody to bring law and order into the cities, police has become totally ineffective here [00:40] nobody asking some terrorists for their ID, a speeding ticket, pay and have fun [00:41] nobody there is places in germany, where speeding is legal, we even got unrestricted highways for this [00:41] nobody but they're doing it inside the cities [00:46] nobody it's a terrorist mob [00:46] IsambardPrince https://x.com/USAEdMartin/status/1892695384830452197 [00:46] TR Bot ( status 400 @ https://x.com/USAEdMartin/status/1892695384830452197 ) [00:46] IsambardPrince Nigga nigga nigga [00:46] IsambardPrince LOL [00:46] IsambardPrince Meanwhile in DC. [00:47] nobody even police told me, "hey, it's a city, nothing unusual" [00:51] nobody it's not a full scale escalation of civil war in german cities [00:51] nobody but it's certainly not "liberty" and "peace", "democracy" [00:52] nobody it's not a "social market economy" remaining either [00:53] nobody corrupt politics and corrupt labor unions abuse the legal system and social spendings (or cut thereoff), silence dissidents [00:53] IsambardPrince https://www.uscis.gov/alienregistration [00:53] TR Bot Alien Registration Requirement | USCIS [00:54] IsambardPrince They require illegal immigrants to register and tell them where they are now. [00:54] IsambardPrince Or threaten criminal prosecution if they don't. [00:54] IsambardPrince It's technically a misdemeanor to not register, but there's no way to register. [00:54] nobody IsambardPrince: in germany ALL citizens must register their residence, that's not specific to immigrants [00:55] *includeals has quit (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in) [00:55] nobody and how could all those people arrive without registration? [00:55] *includeals (~includeal@bl18-27-126.dsl.telepac.pt) has joined #techrights [00:55] nobody at minimum banking terminals might register who pulled off cash [00:56] nobody where, when, how much, that's not too challenging - a credit card got associated with a local residence registration or it isn't [00:56] nobody cars must be registered [00:57] nobody simple question, where's the money come from, and had any taxes been paid, in germany, relative to the value of the car acquired? [00:58] nobody if they had wanted to do something about it, with civilized methods, they could have done it [00:58] nobody but corrupt politics, corrupt labor unions, corrupt bureaucracy didn't [00:58] nobody they rather molest honest and hard working people with extortion letters and blackmail to squeeze out the last coin for the "greater good" of their socialist utopia [00:59] nobody our liberals explained, they would "not want immigration into social security system", otherwise it's all fine for them [00:59] nobody they were kicked out of parliament last sunday, at least ● Feb 27 [01:00] IsambardPrince and how could all those people arrive without registration? [01:00] IsambardPrince There's been no way to register if you were an illegal immigrant. [01:00] IsambardPrince USCIS is making a new form. [01:00] IsambardPrince It does not create any benefit, does not protect you from ICE, and tells them where you are. :) [01:01] IsambardPrince nobody, You don't register any residence with the federal government in the United States, if you're a citizen. [01:02] IsambardPrince You only do that with state identification cards. [01:02] IsambardPrince cars must be registered [01:02] IsambardPrince State, not federal, [01:03] IsambardPrince simple question, where's the money come from, and had any taxes been paid, in germany, relative to the value of the car acquired? [01:03] IsambardPrince Vehicles are taxed by your state, not the federal government. [01:03] nobody well, if no income tax was paid, there's some questions remaining how an expensive car could have been acquired [01:03] IsambardPrince Interaction with the federal government is limited for most people. [01:04] IsambardPrince It usually boils down to passports and income tax filings. [01:04] IsambardPrince Eventually claiming Social Security. [01:04] IsambardPrince Most federal programs are actually operated by the states using federal money and requirements. [01:19] IsambardPrince well, if no income tax was paid, there's some questions remaining how an expensive car could have been acquired [01:19] IsambardPrince Yes, but honestly unless it's a real WTF situation nobody would investigate it really. [01:20] IsambardPrince If you aren't filing taxes and you have a new Mercedes that just got registered, it may draw attention.

[04:34] IsambardPrince It's part of the federal government. [04:34] IsambardPrince vroom vroom [04:37] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR2], NPR posted that Trump shut down PEPFAR. [04:38] IsambardPrince They used a title card that says no more HIV medicine or testing in the Philippines, they documented an agency that depended on USAID there. [04:38] IsambardPrince My mother voted to kill many Filipinos, and people all over the world of course. [04:38] IsambardPrince Which is exactly what you'd expect a racist homophobe to do. [04:39] IsambardPrince I'm not surprised with her, but I am profoundly disappointed once again because, well, she is disgusting and repulsive really. [04:40] IsambardPrince She is incapable of growth. She doesn't operate on that level. She cannot grow a conscience because she feels nothing for other people. [04:41] IsambardPrince Eventually, because of the foreign assistance cuts, the rest of the world will side with China somehow, who will be eager to expand their influence. [04:42] IsambardPrince The United States is now, as shown by the UN votes, a member of a group of 12 which includes Russia, North Korea, Hungary, Belarus, and a few others, along with Israel. [04:43] IsambardPrince This creates many problems for the US in the future because our soft power is gone. Nobody has any reason to like us or listen to us anymore. We are not a Free country. We don't help anyone. [04:44] IsambardPrince Trump is doing this "Protection Racket Democracy" in Ukraine as NYT put it, but the "minerals deal" does not obligate the US to do anything to assist them. There's no part of it that even says more weapons shipments will arrive. [04:44] IsambardPrince My parents are a couple of thugs who are too stupid to realize what they've done. They don't care. The way they see it they have single digit years left and they plan to be as greedy and nasty and terrible as they can be, until they're gone. [04:47] IsambardPrince I've experienced it for far too long. At this point, well way before this point I wouldn't have really been worse off much without them. My mom walked out 26 years ago and my choice was my dad or an alcoholic felon truck driver that she went to go live with, so that went well you know. First it was my dad that didn't even make me go to school and disappeared for weeks and left some food in the house. [04:47] IsambardPrince Then it was mom and Gonad, who beat the crap out of me, and she took his side even though he nearly killed me. [04:48] IsambardPrince So my ex had parents who died in 2011 (both of them did) and I asked "Do you miss them?" He goes, "Not really." Even in 2011 I didn't hate my own parents that much, not enough to truly process that statement, empathetically. [04:48] IsambardPrince But I think after this last month, I do understand entirely. [04:48] IsambardPrince It would be better if they quit screwing things up and just left. [04:51] IsambardPrince There was a time a long time ago where if someone told me my parents just died I would have been absolutely inconsolable. It's hard to even believe that part of my life existed now. [04:52] IsambardPrince There's only one person in the world now that I would personally miss enough that I would have a breakdown. And it's not anyone in my family background. [04:53] IsambardPrince My mom going to church is like Dexter the serial killer trying to pretend he has human emotions. It doesn't work. Right? There's just something creepy and entirely synthetic about the entire idea. He can't fathom what it's like to feel anything. She missed any wisdom there was in the bible and is in church handing them money as a straight up indulgence. [04:54] IsambardPrince Protestantism doesn't officially have indulgences. They're just oh so happy to take your money and say you're the man (or woman) and give you a thumbs up. [04:56] IsambardPrince Chapter 6: The Quickest Right Way to a Million [04:57] IsambardPrince Now Dave Ramsey describes my landlord. "What is it about us humans that makes us want something for nothing? Even the guy who wrote 'Nothing Down' filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy." [04:59] IsambardPrince My landlord doesn't have a chance in hell on ever turning a profit on this building. Things go wrong too fast and he's too leveraged on the place to tend to them. This month he missed a $214 water bill, got whacked with a $100 late fee, still had to pay it, and was embarrassed enough that anyone saw that, he had the super come take it down. ● Feb 27 [05:00] IsambardPrince He's miffed at me. Imagine how much angrier he'd be if they couldn't get in to take the meter so they just kept hitting him with a $100 fine every week until they did, whenever that might be. [05:01] IsambardPrince Ramsey mentioned what my landlord walked into here. He said that Mark (in this case) probably showed him on paper that the place was making a profit, but only on paper. Behind the scenes it was a total pig**** and the books were, well, not accurate is putting it mildly. [05:02] IsambardPrince You show the investor one set that says you haven't evicted anyone in years and they're all current. Then he buys it and finds out half of them aren't paying. He's so hot to buy he has no inspection done, which nobody with any experience in real estate would ever do. [05:04] IsambardPrince Now he probably got this place by using one of his other buildings as collateral, so he'll lose two, and maybe that other one was a good building. [05:04] IsambardPrince When we get excessively greedy, it makes us stupid. [05:05] IsambardPrince When I know I'm getting a fair deal I don't ever push my luck. [05:08] IsambardPrince Dave Ramsey says, 78% of NFL players (who are wealthy because that pays well, and would be wealthier if they can parley that into deals and good investments, solid ones), 78% of them.....end up divorced and bankrupt within 2 years of retiring. [05:08] IsambardPrince Due to joblessness, spending sprees, bad investments, and being cleaned out in the divorce. [05:11] IsambardPrince "Bad investments, greedy family members, medical issues, and extravagant lifestyles."
