We know where the Canada dodo bird is. Cancun.

Lynndie was prosecuted, as were others.
Al-Awlaki - Obama should have been impeached and removed for that.

As distasteful as all of that is, and as immoral as most of it is, can you point to which of these was unconstitutional? Or targeting American citizens?
That's the line that, if they cross it, civil war is inevitable.

Not if they're illegal. They swore an oath not to follow illegal orders, and to follow the constitution instead of anyone or anything else.
If they're ordered to fire on US citizens, some will, some won't, and we'll likely see a major fracture in the ranks.

Trump thinks all of us will knuckle under at the sight of troops.
LAPD damn well knows better, and wants nothing to do with what's coming.

I'm a vet, and I agree with you wholeheartedly.
However, Guard troops shot at civilians in New Orleans more recently, after Katrina.
Chris Kyle claimed to have sniped civilians crossing that bridge.
Just adding a datapoint.
I fear this is going to cause a fracture in the ranks.

The parade is the most unamerican thing ever, but it is NOT an illegal order.
Guaranteed none of them are happy about this shit, but they follow stupid legal orders every day.

I feel you. Tossed and turned half the night last night, only to be wakened at 6 am by two Airedales play fighting. Sounded like they were killing one another. Tell them to shut up, and they both look at me with the "who, me? Whaddid I do?"

Yeah, I keep thinking about that poor gay kid from Denver. He's in hell right now, and everybody's laser focused on Abrego Garcia.
Who also was wronged, but damn...walk and chew gum.

These are brownshirts who have been sworn in because they're true believers.
Professional cops have to be aghast at this cosplaying bunch of dicks.

Actually, it's brick weed from Mexico.
It's smash sativa smuggled across the southern border. Full of seeds, no doubt.

Resign Schumer, you're weak and old and ineffective.
Hand the reins over to someone who will stand and fight, because you're not it.

Not ID, but they damn sure need to show a badge.
Somebody's going to get shot in the face before this is over.

Fred Rogers espoused the teachings of Jesus.
Of course the evangelical christian right hated him.
Modern day Pharisees are nothing if not hypocrites.

Seems like this news would call for more than a regular Tuesday, but maybe that's just me.

Masked, dressed in military gear, no badges present, and refusing to show ID.
This is going to go very, very wrong before it's over.

They're the lesser threat of the Russian triad.
Hitting that sub base speaks more to your point, I think.
Survivability of a TU bomber carrying nukes toward the US is near on zero. Subs, not so much.
ICBMs are the backbone of their triad.

This only works if you're sloppy and in a hurry to put out inferior product.
Nobody who cares about quality work takes that attitude.

Some of them.
A whole lot of them wouldn't approve of this bullshit, but guess where they get their news? They don't even know it's happening.

Into Elon Musk and Donald Trump's pockets. Guaranteed they're handing all contracts off to SpaceX, and are cooking the books.
Because what the hell else would these charlatans do?

More open bribery.
The people who need to be paying attention don't pay attention to a damn thing but Fox Entertainment.
We are so screwed. There will be blood in the streets because of these jackasses.
