I'm so glad you're here!!!!! Welcome to the normal side of social. And we're super pissed off at what's happening to our country. You are a wise man with a platform to explain things we non-lawyers need to know. Thank you for joining Bluesky.
💙🦋💙
Surely the Take Care clause implies that any presidential action must be faithfully lawful in order to be official, so that the Supreme Court's nonsensical immunity decision is rendered meaningless.
Laws are of no concern to trump. Sadly, our highest court awarded complete immunity to a dictator-loving, self-serving, cruel, dangerously ignorant meglomaniac. Thanks to a neutered Republican Congress, there are zero guardrails.
Then the House is derelict in bringing impeachment against the president. Do they not have any take care responsibility to the Constitution and the public they serve. They are complicit.
I will happily put my body between this fraudulent administration’s pawns and any judge willing to defy them.
Tell me when and where I’m needed to be part of a wall that stops these people from coming for the judges, and I would drop what I’m doing to be there.
We can expect nothing less when we allow a convicted felon and government insurgent to run for President. We can expect nothing less when we don't purge from Congress all those who supported the Maga insurrection January 6. 2021.
What else can we do? Donate small bits of $$ to be used in lawsuits to sue his illegal, illicit, fascist administration.
Work to fund those who have more knowledge and expertise to stop Putin from rewriting our social contract and Constitution like he did Russia's, w/o the people's permission.
I appreciate that you're out there! I think we're going to see a tipping point when there is consistent warm weather and people are waking up to the truth. When people lose their entitlements, there will be trouble.
Right now is the tipping point Trump is doing whatever he wants Musk is going into Federal buildings like he is god shutting buildings down and firing workers with no resistance. Nobody going to Maralogo where Trump are partying and laughing with the maggots
And selling hand bags for half a mil each. Also, as they cry about our national debt, he jets back and forth to FL on AF1 adding millions to the national debt.
I appreciate you and have learned a great deal from listening to you. Thank you for educating me and helping everyone understand what’s going on in our country.
Well if tRump has declare war on America & America is a member of NATO, then it seems they will participate in helping defend the country from a treasonous President.
#TrumpIsDestroyingAmerica
When Benjamin Franklin was once asked what type of government the Constitutional Convention adopted, his cautionary response was, “A republic, if you can keep it.”
This is on the hands of We, the people. This republic was by the people for the people so can the people to save it ?
We are in a constitutional crisis. There is nothing the courts can do? If I was in contempt of court would I not be put in jail? If there is nothing that can be done by even the Supreme Court, then Trump will continue to destroy our country,how will he be a lamb duck president?
Hurray for the courts, Hara for justice,the law is starting to put on the brakes.The third leg of our government is standing and I hope will remain so for this fight that Trump is waging against law and order, for no man is above the law.The force of the American people can be felt, on the nice edge
So it's clear: there's nothing to be done when tRump decides to ignore even the supreme court's rulings. Nothing short of running him out off the WH with his gang of sycophants. A revolution. That's a very daunting and dangerous road to walk on. How the F did it get to this?
You're saying this now, because he is going after judges. You all should have stopped him long before now. I like how people don't get upset over all this crap until it affects them personally.
Judge Luttig has voiced his strong opinion since the first T administration. I admire his courage more than I can say, and I feel the need to defend him from your statement. He spoke up during the impeachments (unlike so many republicans) Here are some: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=judge+luttig&t=newext&atb=v358-1&iax=videos&ia=videos
While some of us take on all the stress and suffer the health consequences of seeing it all and feeling powerless.
I live in Canada, so I can do nothing about US politics, just watch from a distance and fear Americans won't stop Dictator Trump in time for my country to not be invaded.
Thank you, Judge Luttig, for speaking to America from the Maddow program last night and for posting this.
I hope that our country follows the course that you predict it will take so that future generations will know and admire you as all decent Americans now do.
In all seriousness, I saw theories that the Cheif Justice was not issuing a rebuke, but reminding him that the SC had the final say and to use that process to "legally" obtain his goals.
Thoughts?
My thoughts are that the Supreme Court has been warned just like all of Congress that lives are in danger if they don’t acquiesce. Trump is mafia. He will always threaten the families.
"He will always threaten families." True, but only as long as he is alive. How old is he now? 78 long hard years of cheating, battling, and settling lawsuits. He cannot settle what is building up against him now. And many of his ex-supporters will be at the front of his impeachment line.
As long as the virus has not infected his children, the vice president, his cabinet, the Stephen Miller, etc. the infestation is real, and it needs to be extinguished.
Watch Rachel Maddow, Chris Haynes, and Lawrence O'Donnell M-F. Go to YouTube and search "U.S.protests." BAM! A ton of protests are happening every day.
I have seen an YouTube some protest consisting of dozens of people. I’d have thought the dismantling of democracy should motivate people to take to the streets in their thousands. Is it all too rapid?
Holy shit - Lutting from the top rope was not on my bingo card. This is what a sensible conservative is folks, don’t let those weirdos gaslight you otherwise.
I can execute citizen's arrests in my state if I witness a crime. I've directly witnessed many felonies by conservatives. None of them will be safe from me if I find them here in my state. Many other states have similar laws. We are not powerless. In fact, we may be more effective than the police.
At the moment we and the world are hitting trump & musk where it hurts most, money. I'm not going to advocate vandalism but that's not to say I wouldn't help a Tesla owner destroy their own car. Canada and Europe are just not buying American. It's going to hurt us but I'm ok with that.
I'm hoping that monetary protests will be effective, but sadly, I don't think it will be enough or work fast enough. The harm is exponentially increasing the longer the lawlessness goes on. I'll do anything as a last resort. I'll just be angrier if they make me take drastic measures.
Unfortunately, we're long overdue for a massive change. I just hope we don't completely lose ourselves in the process. It's such a shame trump has been allowed to do this. Half of Americans actually voted for this guy. The shit is running deep right now.
I live in Texas. I look at law enforcement as already corrupt and suspect. I expect a lot of chess playing. Paxton is already on my list as a suspect subject to arrest. I'm sure things will get dicey. I really don't care. They have way more to lose than I do.
Trust me, I don't like being put in this position. But I'm a veteran who takes my oath deadly serious. I don't grasp why there aren't millions like me already doing something. Maybe they aren't vocalizing about it. I'm not proposing anything illegal, but I think people might try to kill me.
nicole look at this...we need to get the word out!https://www.project2025.observer/?fbclid=IwY2xjawJH5A5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHfDBE_1g0D9Q6PLyXb94qtI4xftGPOCJQ2UOkyh_8c6e2ucMaZLonMT7jg_aem_4Iw-TNHVaLazqwr6GZdwfQ
I am just surprised that some military think tank had not perceived this happening nor prepared an emergency military plan to rescue the country in it's time of need. Including any recently forcibly retired generals and officers who swore their Oath to the constitution and not a dictator.
They might have- they’re just not saying they have. Don’t reveal you have a plan before you do the plan. That’s why hegseth is important to their plans.
I wonder if they're waiting for an opportune time to spring it... Like after a critical mass of MAGAts have realised they've been had... So that there's less opposition to taking the country back.
I vaguely recall a memo from RogerStone on removing everyone's access to arms to prevent any kind of uprising. Gun prices will probably rocket if they haven't already. States need to find solutions like Acting the Law & not Obeying Federal law as that branch under Trump doesn't care about the Police
Everyone keeps saying something needs to be done someone needs to do something they keep hinting at us vets stepping up even the cowardly generals. They want us vets to take it all on ourselves again but once we do you will all turn on us and call us terrorists to wipe your hands of us like always.
So give us vets lifetime non prosecution agreements like the military contractors Musk is turning into his private army have and maybe some of us vets would be willing to do something about it.
Thank you for clarifying these issues. However, it is all the more frightening when there is no recourse outlined. I believe he is just pulling at the reins for those war powers and that is why he is fighting for this one so hard. I think we see what’s coming here.
The next step is for a judge to hold some of his people in contempt, and for Trump to pardon them. At that point, the Unconstitutional immunity that SCOTUS bestowed on the president has transferred to his brownshirts, and we are in a full blown dictatorship.
It seems to me there was too much discussion about whether we were in a constitutional crisis and not nearly enough about what to do once it's here. So what now?
Exactly what r the "how to stop it instructions"?
We recognize Trump's working his way 2 a coup. Until all the government+ courts fall, it's a constitutional crisis. Pray tell what is the recourse? Fight his maga lawyers in court, while musk-rat's mafia+ E-dogs invade+destroy gov offices? Fight4life
This is kind of depressing. Democrats and everyone else saw the Rethuglicans getting more and more lawless since Reagan and did nothing..They, we, all should have been more prepared. They saw Mr Adderall's first term and KNEW what he would do if he got back in and they STILL did nothing.*sigh*
Compare the Declaration of Independence to what Trump has done, is doing, and intends to do. The Dec. of Ind. and the US Constitution are interesting things. The further we fall from them, the more relevant they become. I've all but begged people not to take that road; it may lead to revolution.
I think he clearly stated the Judiciary knows what Trump is up to, "if" they stick together as I think he is suggesting & the military also stands to the constitution as they so swear to do then impeaching Trump for said effort to over turn the constituition should be a logical avenue.
The House impeaching him is a nothing burger. What's REALLY needed is for the Senate to convict him. It'll never happen. Best we can hope 4 is a tie & who knows how Vance would vote on that. But then we get JD Vance for pOTUS and that's just as bad.
Justice Roberts and his 5 other scotus juscti caused this they made him a king what did they expect would happen? This is on the. They granted him immunity so he could do this the Supreme Court is complicent. Too bad they can't revoke his immunity
They revoked women's rights to abortion with a new lawsuit, can't they do the same in this instance? It's just a legal ruling.
Some genius can come up with a lawsuit for this.
I thought the 2nd amendment was specifically made to overthrow a tyrannical government in the US.
Or am I mistaken?
It might be time for some organized militias, just sayin'....

In fact, it's straight up war on America itself.
We're in a bad way down here. Got a spare room?
