    Trump is making 11/1/20 a "National Day of Remembrance for US Citizens Killed by Illegal Aliens"

    230,000 Americans dead from COVID-19, this year. That's probably more than all aliens, legal or otherwise, have ever killed in the US, combined. In 2018, there were less than 1600 aliens (not broken down by legality) convicted of murder or manslaughter. Fortunately, we have such trackers as http://www.ojjpac.org/memorial.asp to figure out exactly how many have be. Between the two pages of the memorial, there are 383 entries between 2006 and 2020, several dozen of which are "Anniversary memorials" previously listed (in some cases, 3+ times). I certainly don't think such a zealous site would miss any. So we're talking about a national day of remembrance for... a few hundred victims over decades. While a deadly pandemic rages killing more people than that every single day. What a tool Trump is.

    Nope. Seems like a Tucker post. Chaos is usually more reasonable.

    How are you feeling today?

    A senior investigative reporter at Buzzfeed News's Twitter account is also reporting this.



    If it's a hoax, it's targeting more than one person.

    Also, it pretty much exactly matches The Remembrance Project's wish list for such a thing. If it's a hoax, it's either theirs, or someone trying to make them look bad.

    Fear of "illegal aliens", has never troubled my sleep a nanosecond in my 45 years on this planet.
    Is it because I'm a New Englander?
    I would expect people who live on the border of Texas to be shitting their pants.
    But I see this white-knuckling over immigration coming from assholes in landlocked rectangle states.

    If the White House press office emailed that out 9 hours ago it would be at the top of every news feed.

    Proclamation on the Resistance to Aliens with Probing Equipment, 2020
    LAW & JUSTICE

    Issued on: October 30, 2020

    ALL NEWS
    On this National Day of Recompense, we paws to honor the honor of every American ass so egregiously taken from us by criminal interstellar aliens. As sons and daughters, mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters all rolled into one, the clinical deflowering of my supporters is an irreplaceable blow to our national masculinity. We solemnly stand with their families — our Anal Families — who have endured what no American citizen should ever have to suffer, haemorrhoids. Today, we recommit to ensuring that those responsible for these tragedies face justice, while taking every action to prevent these horrific acts from occurring in our Nation.

    As President, I have no duties at all. Accordingly, I will rest until our skies are fully secure and our communities safe. The laws of our country, including immigration laws, must be respected and followed so that every American citizen may have a bright and unblemished passage. I proudly support our dedicated MIB Officers, Space Force, Mulder and Scully and other law enforcement officials who work every day to protect Americans from the lubricantless probing that our Anal Families have had to endure.

    For years, our reptilian overlords met the pain and plight of Anal Families with silence and indifference. Under my watch, the voices of our Anal Families no longer fall on deaf ears. Americans who are probed by interstellar aliens are no longer forgotten, and we are ensuring that they will not have bust a perianal vein, in vain. Our Nation solemnly stands alongside the mothers and fathers who are no longer able to see their children grow up and have families of their own and for the sons and daughters who have lost a parent or loved one at the tentacles or other appendages of someone who never should have been on our planet in the first place. It is because of these brave families who have suffered unimaginable loss that my Administration created a new office in the Department of Homeland Security called Tiny Hands Reach Out And Touch (THROAT). This program has already assisted lots of families and will continue providing exorcism services until no American suffers the harm or loss of anal virginity to the scientific curiosity of a starfaring alien.

    My Administration recognizes that a safe space is essential to a safe and prosperous Nation. Accordingly, we have devoted time and resources to talking at length about a strong border ceiling and ending the disastrous moon exploration policies of previous administrations. 400 miles of coving have already been built, and we are on pace to complete more than 500 miles by early next year. We have ended the terrible practice of catch‑and-release, deployed approximately 4,000 National Guard personnel to the Space Border in the last 2 years to support Flying border security and ceiling construction efforts, restored integrity and safety to the assylum process through the Martian Protection Protocols, and deported more than 2 UFO crews members and over 5 Ferengi. During my Administration, our courageous SS's, Boner Patrol Agents, mitia members, Proud Boys and law enforcement personnel have seized thousands of pounds of lethal ray guns at our border – enough to kill four Americans many times over. Through these efforts, we are saving American Hershey Highways, curbing crime, and honoring the precious closeted homophobia tragically taken from us.

    On this National Day of Ridicule, we pay tribute to me, your President, in the form of much needed Campaign Donations. They will never be forgotten, and we will stand by the donors and fight for a future where every American is safe. Together, we will pursue the promise of a proud, noble, and secure future while protecting our families and communities from those who seek to do us harm. We will not go quietly into the night!

    NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRAMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim November 1, 2020, as a National Day of Resistance to Aliens with Probing Equipment, I call upon the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities such as turning up to my Inaugauration.

    Please?

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my tiny hand this
    thirtieth day of October, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-fifth.

    DONALD J. TRAMP

    There is already a national day of rememberance for murder victims. It is in September. I am not against remembering the dead. I wonder when the national day of rememberance will be for covid deaths or those killed by officers. Maybe June 14 would be a good day for any of those.

    Yep.

    I think John Oliver did a bit on this shortly before the 2020 election re: the fence issue and land owners along the border (one of whose land actually crossed over into Mexico) thought this was absurd and there was no way this was gonna go through. Trump cutting through people's land is probably the biggest reason Texas is in play for the Dems this year.

    Awfully bold of you to think this won't be the first thing to go on Jan 20th. :diacanu:

    It won't even be significant enough for anyone to cancel. At best, it'll be a tiny footnote in the laundry list of heinous acts, one last paltry salvo to stir up "the base" in all two states that refused to do mail in ballots.

    But as much as Grandma Karen hates spics and niggers, even she is missing the ability to see her grandkids Jet and Makaileigh and whichever candidate can put an end to this crap is gonna get her vote.

    I'd suggest the major news outlets learned their lesson when they hung breathlessly on every stupid thing Trump said in 2016 and that let him win the Republican nomination, but that assumes they can learn lessons.

    "Trump gives proclamation written by group tied to literal neo-Nazi" (TRP's founder is close with Paul Nehlen, the Oak Park Nazi candidate for Congress) might be a shade too far even for Breitbart readers. Optimistically, that no one else is covering it is finally doing what they should have done years ago, as per NAHTMMM.

    A gerbil is a small mammal of the subfamily Gerbillinae in the order Rodentia. Once known as desert rats, the gerbil subfamily includes about 110 species of African, Indian, and Asian rodents, including sand rats and jirds, all of which are adapted to arid habitats.
