Gill is a moron. Obviously we need to providence due process before deportation.

But they weren't being taken to Venezuela. They were being taken to El Salvador.

Now we get to watch the legal posturing and arguments while Musk and Trump continue to hold the pillow over the face of democracy

We can’t just sit back & let our democracy be taken away! What are we waiting for? No one is going to rescue us. Ripples matter. Don’t wait for instructions. Speak up. Engage.

Who has the authority to bring him to heal? Senate? House? The Judiciary have no enforcement- so who does?

We the people ultimately. But it takes us coming together peacefully in the streets as a first step.

justsally.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I can’t see how peaceful resistance will do a thing. It will take a whole lot more. He is blatantly ignoring Judicial decisions. Why should he pay the slightest attention to us saying ‘we aren’t happy. Could you pretty please stop being a dictator?’

So set up a different constitutional crisis by arresting everyone who was in on the decision for contempt of court,including Trump. Let him sit in jail until it works its way up to the Supreme Court to see if he really can do anything as president and who else has the same protection.

As expected! All that happens from now on is the fault of the Democrats! They had a chance to make a difference but Shumer blew it! Maga will steamroll everything now. It is over, we are royaly fucked now!

Federal Courts get shut down during a government shutdown! It is estimated they can only last for 2 weeks after the shutdown starts. This is why Trump wanted a government shutdown. He wanted Dems to do his dirty work.

As if FOTUS cares what courts do....

That is true.

I keep asking, who is going to force Trump to follow the law? Courts have zero value if Trump is simply going to ignore them.

Sadly, the Song of the Day.
It’ll be the Song of the Day until Americans rise up and stop the rising tide of Fascism Trump is inflicting upon us and the rest of the world!!!
Free Kahlil and all others unlawfully sent to detention centers!!!

But will there be an outcry? People staying to actually get into action? From the outside, it seems like everybody is far too complacent.

scottknitter.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Apparently all the country can do is stand there and watch all this happen. All safeguards, countermeasures, and pushbacks have fallen away. Overthrow is needed, but is anyone planning that?

weary-world-diary.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I wonder.
South korea was SO quick to react to the coup. In several east(erish) European countries, people have taken to the streets. The USA, at least in the newspapers, appear to be somewhere between dumbstruck, helpless or complacent.
