They're arresting Members of Congress.
Perhaps a sternly-worded letter is in order.
Or, perhaps, it's time to play some damn hardball with the DOJ.

THIS IS WAR on the people, and the PARTY. I HEARD A WHOLE LOT FROM @aoc.bsky.social & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social that going after members was the line.
You have our COMPLETE SUPPORT if so. If not, we need NEW PEOPLE in charge.
Stand up in the Senate for over 24 hours and filibuster your way out of this mess?
Maybe confirm another criminal nominee to an official government position after you bluster your way through a long speech resulting in nothingness?
What say you?
Those Fundamentalist Christian Fascist fools are now being threatened as well.
Not hard to foresee, but criminals tend to think short-sighted.
Even the ones that hold high judicial appointments.
How impotent.
I’m a 50 yr REPUBLICAN AND WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ANYONE
THAT BACKS TRUMP !
Said they were CORRUPT TO THE CORE !
Trump killed it in a way analogous to that "woke mind virus" they harp on about. The Republicans cut from good cloth want nothing to do with MAGA, and they exist.
It's pure ego at that point.
400 billions or 600 billions doesn't change anything.
You can't spend that in a hundred lifetime.
You can just lose it all in the stock market.
Meanwhile, they destroy millions of lives.
For nothing.
That's telling.
Traitors, all. They rely on ignorance and bigotry.
It is ABSOLUTELY a party thing.
How fucking sad and pathetic.
It takes grit, resilience, defiance, humility, love for neighbor and so on.
Gummy spine and wish-washy mush-mouth will never be celebrated.
Cops have families too.
Some watch RomComs with their wives & girlfriends. Some cook and take care of their kids. Some want to throw Trump out on their own.
about 140 officers were injured, including Officer Brian Sicknick, who died the following day...
The officers present that day risked their lives to protect American political leaders and our democratic process, and they paid an enormous price."

And the National Guard.
And the FBI.
And on and on…
Meanwhile WTF are we supposed to do? Nothing?
Screw the DOJ.
Doing nothing is not an option.
Either way you still haven’t given anyone one idea of what to do. Just criticize.
So maybe you do have an idea… it’s to roll over and play dead. You’re also picking a fight for what reason? Ego? You just want to win over me? You’re being very petty.
When law and order breaks down, WE make the law and order in the short-term to be able to reestablish it according to our Constitution.
ARM UP. STAND UP. FIGHT BACK.
Defend your oath of office to uphold the laws and the US Constitution or RESIGN. If you're afraid, let others take your place to fight for democracy - for real.

Talking and filing stories is obviously not stopping them. At some point you are going to need to start protecting yourself and your rights because the USA is under assault by Trump

So, I don't understand what you think can happen.
(Appealed to the primate in me.)
IYKYK
When the fuck are you going to get in the mud and fight?! FFS
F'g quit.
On the Dem side, Chuck Schumer is adjusting his glasses.
- Immigrant criminals
- Immigrants- Visa holders
- Green card
- US citizens
- Judges
- Congressional Representatives
You're next. Fight tooth and nail while you still can.
There are enough veterans in this country to neutralize this bastards. Have you actually taken the oath?
Our are you another big mouth civilian?
WTF people? Do they have to grab your children for you to get involved? This will only escalate if you let it! It needs stopped now!
I can’t fathom the selfishness & apathy I see. It will destroy us.

Trump is in violation of 14/3 & his convictions in court according to a paper from the DOJ in 2006 believes that a convicted felon office holder is in violation of Article 2 section 4.

Doesn’t matter the reason though, most of them are unfit & need to be thrown out on their asses.
One would think Schumer might have learned by osmosis at least. However, Schumer is oblivious (read: weak, apathetic, etc.)
I remember reading about Eisenhower saying the most dangerous person in Washington was an angry US senator because they could greatly gum things up.
They have showed weakness by:
Voting for cabinet picks
Joining Rs to vote for things such as the Laken Riley Act
Not all standing Al Green
State the problem: •Constitutional lawleness.
•Fiscal recklessness.
Clear objectives:
•Restoration of 3 part checks and balances.
• Progressive tax reform
No authoritian rule.
Also contact Republican politicians regarding representing their constituents, instead of fidelity to Trump and federalists.
It suspends civil law and replaces it with military rule.
Edie Amin would be proud.
European countries are really good at this.
We have not been good at this. But if we actually did it...WOW!
Are there loopholes or little-known Blue-Eyes-White-Dragon-ish laws that we need to whip out to destroy their proverbial corrupt "deck"?
JFC - Congress (looking at you, GOP) get off your asses!

1862 is close - fight for freedom or live in dictatorship

They are one of the three branches of government! They are supposed to be a check on the president! The other check is the judiciary! They swore an oath to follow the constitution and the role of law! So I repeat congress do your job!
🥱🥱🥱
Any practical solutions to suggest here?
and so that's the problem. not more lawyers and judges.
the problem is congress isn't restraining the executive branch as they take a massive cocaine-ketamine dump on the constitution.
Going to the courts is about all the Democrats have as a recourse (you might note the courts repeatedly slap Trump's hand away).
how's that court thing working out again? abrego who?
hold press conferences calling this admin out for unconstitutionality
stop proceedings
force a vote on impeachment
bring to the public how dire the situation is and garner public support
use proper terminology
Impeach
Convict
Remove
Start with removing each cabinet member and then the lazy lying orange one
I wish I had a good way to tell them and not just the echo chamber.
Trump can be defeated at the state level, not at the congressional level. The blue states get together and threaten him with secession.
Democrats in the Senate may not have the votes to stop Cynthia Lummis's crypto bill, but they don't have to vote for it. Make it an entirely Republican bill.
We didn’t elect congress to do a coup that’s on us
There’s nothing illegal about a state declaring independence.
Except the J6 anniversary’s one to remind them their president is corrupt still like DOJ & has no intentions to uphold the US constitution

Also, voters: Let's blame Democrats for being powerless
"I don't think I'll let you arrest me today Behaan".
I know they will all be dead when their great grandchildren read what traitors they were, but still?
Trump's birthday present.
Get out while you can.
Meant to silence opposition to their illegal activities.
