JD Vance has taken hillbilly to Europe. We need to give our Euro friends the definition of
Hillbilly ..an unsophisticated country person, as associated originally with the remote regions of the Appalachians.
Then they can move on & know Trump sent his best deputy!
Unfortunately these would fill right back up with "lawyers" whose only qualification is loyalty to Trump. Passing the Bar would merely be a suggestion. Who's gonna check credentials?
I believe the world is underestimating the threat that is culminating in front of our all eyes, with a rogue administration that denies the rule of law, the separation of powers. Should there be an epic desaster before we all realize that massive danger?
They would somehow manage to fire all of them and hire a bunch of non-lawyers to pretend to be lawyers.
β¦.basically the same thing that all the Trump cabinet appointees are doing. Pretending to be somewhat qualified at anything that theyβre supposed to be doing.
As a lawyer, what do you think of governor setting up escrow accounts to collect federal taxes from their citizens? Judges have ordered feds to continue payments, so that money is owed to states, but Musk isn't complying.
Yes, but as Musk lays off IRS employees, who will enforce tax collection? I propose a tax revolt. Instead of sending what we owe this year, send to our state. Obviously some of our taxes have already gone to the feds. Next year opt to pay the least you can up front out of your paycheck.
I donβt know that much about how all of this works, so please forgive me, but why canβt Bove, since he seems to be in charge, sign the paperwork himself? Why is he compelled to have someone else do it?
Of course they should but you know they wonβt what a bunch of lame people spent so much money at law school and Trump run circles around them. Trump yells delay in the whole court system fucking folds up like a dish rag.
True! America is on the brink. If Americans donβt protest in some way they will lose democracy as they have known it. Can I ask a question? Is the name Democratic Party too close in spelling to democracy that MAGA truly donβt or understand the difference?
American taxpayers should go on a mass nationwide strike. Maybe it could be done legally through the courts? Maybe the money could be held in escrow via court orders in each state? Until they are given their due process, rights, & fair share.
The entire country should go on a nationwide strike. We strike until our demands are met. And we demand President Elon Musk step down from office. (Also overturn citizen united and 91% tax on billionaires)
DOJ: Courage! Organize! Quickly! Do something that shouts above the Trump distractions about taking over Canada, etc. All distractions. The DOJ is so important for holding on to Rule of Law!
WHo has the S. Media Might to start The "Liberty's Light " or "THE VICTIMS WITHIN" - START THE SUPPORT GROUP NOW.. Please.. This will be a S. Media home for the unemployyed first victims of this AMERICAN CARNAGE (Layoffs, stopped payments to Farmers.. All the aggrivied) @TheVictimsWithin ?
Mr Conway, can the reaigning lawyers from DOG themselves bring a suit against the administration for trying to drop the case on behalf of the people? Idk how you'd establish standing but...
Dear George: It's a dead horse, of course (of course), but doesn't the Constitution prohibit people who tried to overthrow the government, or at least the results of an election, from running from office again? I think I remember reading that once. Why are we so befuddled by a criminal president?
Deprive the Republican Camerahoors of an audience.
Turn off phones, or use in airplane mode.
No shopping, working, or TV.
We basically practiced for it the last time he was in office when he flubbed the Covid response.
All public service non essential employees federal, state, county and municipal need to strike to show how important these services are to the whole population
If enough of them were willing. Would there be enough to matter? I really don't know anymore. I don't recognize these actions by my government. In the immortal words of Natalie Merchant, Have I been blind?
These strikes need to be planned & coordinated so they're done en mass to be effective. Spontaneous protesting is good. But a big strike & protest needs a coalition to plan a nationwide protest that leads to sustained resistance -- striking, serious boycotting, a shadow gov with spokespeople.
Unfortunately it's very difficult to make happen. When it's stuff where people have built unions over many years, then you already have an infrastructure for large protests, but even those can pale in comparison to what you'd need for an effective nationwide protest.
Are they unionized? Problem with an unauthorized strike is that if you are AWOPβed more than 3 days, it is considered job abandonment & you can be fired/terminated.
Thatβs his plan anyway. Fill them full of incompetent sycophants. But he wants to keep the fearful so it all doesnβt collapse. Doesnβt matter, itβs all going to collapse.
When the justice dept is run by a woman who has accepted bribes , claimed the election was stolen. you can predict with certainty sheβs going to be a criminal in that role.
Yes, take an all of the above approach in walkouts or strikes ..
Workers should definitely walk out as.a national day on 2/28/25 and consumers need to stop buying stuff.
Make he country look empty like it did during Covid.
The USA is being dismantled to look unrecognizable by its 250th.
How are they supposed to even attempt to do their job? The law is flex-time now. Legal - maybe? Illegal - Meh? Trump is breaking things he is too dense to understand.
And for the love of Godβ¦as members of the profession, apply pressure for the revokation of law degrees and disbarment of those who are engaging in illegal acts!!! These assholes MUST be made examples. Donβt allow anyone to believe that these designations are permanent.
Start a huge litigation firm and work for all citizens Trump is harming. The key is to keep Trump's administration tied up in civil litigation with only Pam and a few lackeys working for the govt.
They should also band together and fight like hell as an unstoppable force to quash the coup in progress!
Our hearts go out to the brave souls who are resisting and refusing to bow and kiss this admininstration's ring.
Great summary George: "This man [Trump] is trying to destroy the very system that our profession, our economy and our freedom relies upon." It's true, US competitive advantage is, in my opinion, a reliable fair legal system. Lose that and we go the way of Venezuela. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZcd9f5zCaE
George, I just watched you on The Weekend. You are the only one that seems to get it!
Iβve been saying the same thing for weeks! The courts are powerless to stop trump and musk because no one in the DOJ will allow any enforcement to take place.
Following his EXTORTION script w/ Ukraine (2018), #FelonDon Trumpβs direct involvement w/ the πΊπΈJustice Dept 2 coax a QUID PRO QUO DEAL w/ INDICTED NYC Mayor Adams in exchange 4 a new MASS DEPORTATION CTR. qualifies him 4 a THIRD #IMPEACHMENT trialβΌοΈ
Make it HARD for GQP to ACQUIT career #FelonTrumpβΌοΈ
Very irresponsible of you to call for that. If a DOJ attorney does not want to work for the Trump DOJ, hen s/he should resign. But going on "strike" in contravention of and injury to the of the rights and interests of a client is not only unethical and a breach of the RPR, but a disbarable offense.
If they're okay with getting embroiled in bar grievance complaint proceedings and court proceedings after getting sued by their client, then hell yeah, they should do it. But be prepared for the consequences. Better to just quit in protest, which doesn't harm anybody.
Does it occur to anyone, enforce the fucking laws?
We know the FBI will never enforce laws for republicans but there are other options at the state level and in these departments.
Ignore Pam Bondi, she has rejected the Constitution.
That's what I've been saying in my circle. If they can ignore laws & the constitution, the others can ignore those orders. EO unlawful? Ignore it. Just like California did. They want to impose their will on private companies... refuse like Costco. Wrongful termination? Just go to work like that IGπ€·π½ββοΈπ
What has us ham-stringed is Felonald controls the Justice Dept. the Legislative Branch of the government has authority, but itβs currently led by a bunch of sackless pieces of garbage.
Those with the law on their side need to stay in their positions and tell Pam to take a hike.
Trump telling the DOJ anything is an obstruction charge although we never enforce the laws for republicans.
Trump should have been prosecuted in 2017 for the same.
Governors need to hit back as well.
Sounds nice in theory, which I feel like Trump is baiting people to do, so he can unleash absolute punishment as his final act to scare society into submission. (Absolute punishment = jail, physical assault, and/or death)
Jails are already overcrowded and police are understaffed. Besides, what would they be arrested for? Staying home? There's literally nothing he could do if millions of people went on strike.
Strikes do take preparation. Save money, stock up on food, and join a union.
So this organization has a goal of getting around 3.5% of the general population to strike. I think once enough people have committed to doing it then we will set a specific date. It doesnβt make much sense to set a date unless thereβs enough support
We've got to stop bringing pillows to a knife fight. Trump controls the mob & most police officers will be among them. The way to defeat a mob is with a larger & more determined mob. You must begin large scale demonstrations, immobilize Elon's brownshirts, & ensure the neutrality of the military.
In all seriousnes George....strikes, marches, screaming, talking, protesting and yapping has done ZERO since 2015.
You want to see change....GET SERIOUS AND UNDERSTAND / READ THE ROOM....ya know like back in June 6, 1944...nothing else will have any effect at this point.
That somebody is you. That somebody is me. Protest somewhere everyday. Engage in person and on social media, push back and defend. Hound our failing government.
Considering that orange Kay hunt is not in jail, how would the average person even notice DOJ
You want action
LOCK IT DOWN
Airtravel and usps
That will jam up the works
How about some of our house of Representatives give up their seats for any of the following;
Sally Yates, Andrew McCabe,General Mattis, Rex Tillerson (Trump is a moron), Omarosa, John McEnroe, John Bolton, General Mark Milley, General John Kelly, etc., you fill in the blanks_____.

Why are they calling for the Coca-Cola boycott?
The group urges its followers not to buy Coca-Cola or shop at Amazon, Target, Walmart and other companies that have scaled back DEI efforts.

At least they can afford to. Everyone keeps saying national strike like us working poor can't afford to go on. Hell we can't even afford to take days off for the Uber privileged, endlessly on weekdays, #50150movement.
1/2 the country agrees with what the Musk/Trump Administration is doing. They believe that their fellow Americans are the deep state and should be fired. There will be other scapegoats blamed for the upcoming inflation, food poisonings, out breaks of communicable diseases, & bankruptcies.
Wonder how the talking heads and the delusional top cognitively impaired head would spin that. Sounds like a great idea. Needs some traction for a start.
Not just one day for me! I cancelled Amazon on inauguration day and will boycott any and all companies or products supporting this coup. Democracy deserves more than one day!!!

Of course the downside is a lot of companies would use it as an excuse to shed workers without having to pay some fees or severance

Military traditional sit down strike
Air traffic controllers and tsa sit at gates to warn people

Fight this.
Drag this out.
Refuse to leave.

See Marco Rubio.
Rubio became a next-lvl clown to me as soon as he took an anti-immigrant stance. REALLY? Mr. son of political refugess?
Scum.

Shut the whole fucker down and make this administration feel its wrath. We the people actually have the power.
This one is beginning 2/18/25. It is a part of the same group organizing the general strike.
