The beacon on the hill that was the light of all nations has gone out.
We shall never see its like again.
Hate has won the day. Cruelty dominates. Greed is now our god.
Domestic terrorism is ideologically driven crimes committed by individuals in the United States that are intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or influence the policy or conduct of a government per USA PATRIOT Act (18 U.S.C.).
The Fourth Reich is not going to listen to the lower courts, Trump is going to kick it up to SCOTUS.
The only good part is that it gets clearer and clearer what he is doing.
Removing Citizens United,dumping gerrymandering, etc.
We need more than outrage, we need a goal to create the path there.
Feb 12 @ 11am - USAID & aid freeze hearing, US District Court, 333 Const Ave #17
Feb 12 @ 12pm - protest the ban on gender affirming care for youth, AG Schwalb's office at 400 6th St NW.
We know he wins, just let him win at this point
Can’t read it or repost.
Hope it goes out of business.
So it is up to the Dems to get control of the house and the senate and with sociopath Mushole embedded in the computer codes I am predicting a more solid GOP House and a 61 vote senate come 2026.
Or that you can walk down 5th Avenue and cave someone's head in with a claw hammer and then, in return for a few million $, receive a full pardon ?
Which is what it is.
When will Dem Leadership & Lawmakers (not you) need to learn to speak in English everyone understands.
Calling it a constitutional crisis, not USING simple verbiage that all people understand, is everything that's wrong with Democrats.
Raskin said it was a COUP on Brian Taylor Cohen's podcast, why can't anyone else?
If right:
"3 equal branches."
When one branch takes more than its stated power. RNC R giving up equal power. Greed supersede their duty to the country, all bitch behind closed doors😏
Raskin called it a COUP.
Words matter.
It's a coup
If you cant get to a Blue State.
If you cant then hoard cash, prescriptions, and ammo.
And it seems SO MANY in the U.S. ... don't care ... don't know ... or agree.
Just SMH.
...
Where is “law enforcement?”
Seriously though, we are finding out how ignorant Americans are about the Constitution, and worse, how little they care.
A lot of lip service "patriots" are going to get an 'F' on this one.
Say the word. Coup in progress.
“Coup”. #Selfcoup, #whitecollarcoup, #digitalcoup.
A #coup.
🤷🏼♂️🤦♂️
when a legitimately elected leader uses his position to seize total control, eliminating legal and constitutional restraints on his power

unlike my Reps who function at a 19th century pace
Time to talk about 'ethics and morals' with the Trumpists, GOP & republicans all around USA.
Are they 'for or against' the Constitution and American laws.
Simple question – with a simple answer.
But it has to be combined with direct action, national strikes, massive protests in the streets, boycotts, etc. You just need some willing, resolute organizers.
Otherwise: submit or revolt

If that doesn't happen, it will no longer be a crisis.
It will be the end of the Constitution.
If he is not removed soon, we will have no constitution. It cannot exist where one man eviscerates power of the other two branches.
EVERY Repub in Congress must be forced to impeach or disavow the Constitution - on record.
Die. Democracy was bloody in the making.
Maybe that's the core problem. Politics is a career, rather than a public service.
Term limits?
right?
"How do we fight RIGHT NOW? is the question.

constantly issuing executive orders that are major power grabs of authority?”

We are not on the precipice of one…we are already there.

If they defy a Judge's ruling, I hope they are arrested!

We have 53 GOP senators and 218 GOP House members who, apparently, have no trouble breaking their oaths and defend their Fuhrer and his shameless lawlessness rather than the Constitution.
The constitutional crisis was when a guy involved in an insurrection was allowed on the ballot.
What is Congress going to do when Republicans put Elon Musk on the ballot in 2028?
"Oh, those rules are so passeé!"

Are they 'for or against' the Constitution and American laws.
Simple question – with a simple answer.
Until both major parties have learned to fear the public again then nothing will be resolved via legal means.
The things needed won’t be done by Congress.
Abolish the Electoral College.
Link politicians pay directly to the minimum wage. No pay rise for politicians unless everyone gets one.
But you mark the spot perfectly.
I cannot tell because of the paywall

One rewrites the rules, the other spreads lies.
Together they dance, a perilous duet,
Eroding the pillars of democracy we set.
Beware the allure of their siren song,
For the path they tread may lead us wrong. -ChatGPT
Dump Trump et al
Destroying America like no other- Impeach - Arrest

Only if you mean the country is being attacked by an enemy from within, raped by a rapist.
But few are taking any measures to fight back, so I see no "war", just a willing victim.
American patriotism is a joke.
We've ignored sign after sign that it was happening here due to idiotic US exceptionalism: "it can't happen here!"
