Trump tried a seizure of power in 2021. It didn't work, because he relied only on a violent mob. The military and FBI stayed loyal to the Constitution. This time, with approval of the Republican Senate, Trump has installed anti-constitutional putschists at FBI, DoD, and Pentagon

We just want to say that we are in awe of all of you. You are the ones history will remember—a resistance rising against tyranny. From the moment Trump took office, laws have been broken left and right. We shouted from the rooftops, and it took relentless effort just to have our voices heard.
