F you, Donny. This isn’t your beloved Russia or China. We have the First Amendment in America—people can protest and say whatever they want. If someone commits violence, they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Most Americans don’t grasp the gravity of our moment. They don’t see the fall of democracy as a real threat. It’s something foreign and the idea of the U.S. collapsing into authoritarianism seems unthinkable.
Hey there Republican leaders. Are you paying attention? Now would be a good time to grow a pair and use them. A spine would be helpful as well unless you're good with what's happening in our country right now. This is tragic!
Trump's attack on federal grants to universities is a gift to U.S. economic competitors. These grants fund graduate education for mostly U.S. students who could not afford it otherwise, opening the door for non-U.S. students who can afford it.
Authoritarians always think they're the first ones to try banning dissent. It never works. The First Amendment isn't conditional on Trump's mood swings. And someone should remind him that 'agitators' and 'illegal protests' were once used against the people who founded this country.
Welcome to Gilead. But words and worthy protest will not cut the mustard. It actually will take serious physical action or Americans will never roll this back. Don't appease the appeaser..
Let's not forgot that unis are full of CHILDREN. Some of them aren't even legal adults yet, and most of them aren't old enough to drink. Trump is threatening our CHILDREN.
Let's clarify his words. Anyone who protests against HIS actions. If they protest elections of his enemies by shitting and rubbing it on the US Capitol walls and beat police with the US flag, they get pardoned. Fuck Trump.
We swore an oath to the constitution that we protect that document at all cost. The constitution comes first, the president comes after. if his order goes against what's in our constitution and our oath, we are charged to disobey it, it's unlawful . We will protect our constitution first.
The issue is presently at the congressional level. Congress possesses substantial authority, overseeing the budget, agencies, and the executive branch, but has thus far declined to challenge the president. constituents may wish to petition for the removal of their GOP representatives from office.
That's the only way fascism will win if we sit down and do nothing and comply. The Syrians took back their government in less than a week and their dictator president, ran off to Russia. I'm so proud of them.
Let us hope that that won't be the case. A few of my friends are staying in Canada for 6 months, and then they're going to Malta for another 6 months. They don't wanna be here if project25 is implemented. They're going to get work permits to stay in one of those countries longer dual citizenship
Wow. No right to protest ?!
And all he has to do is say that the protest 'is illegal'?
How close to a dictatorship - like Putin's - do Americans have to come to realize WHAT they elected to head of their country?
"If someone commits violence, they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
AND if they get convicted, they should serve their sentences and not receive pardons until long after - if ever.
arbitrarily by you Donnie! There is typically a formal review process conducted by the institution’s disciplinary board/committee. You can’t do away with students due process rights.
Every day the orange scam artist pulls some random thought out of his ass. The whole administration needs to go!!!
This is what happens when you put a criminal & fascist pig in charge. Uses fear to try to SHUT youTF-up! You fvckin' people who voted for this piece of sh't!
This is coming from the administration that pardoned January 6th insurrectionists. This is bullshit. It’s the Trump revenge tour.
Our country is in trouble.
Two things! Acc to Erica Chenoweth of Harvard it takes 3.5% of the population to actively resist through protests, boycotts, strikes to topple a government!
Early stages of a dictatorship, suppress protests. Later masked men will appear beating, jailing, and killing protestors to try and suppress dissent. Scary stuff.
Lot of guns up here as well. A friend of mine is a firearms instructor and has been offering a free training course for a group of friends. We are seriously discussing it now. Fascism seems to be rearing it's ugly head again around the world...
Sadly, i think its too late now, The Free US has fallen. All that is left is a fascist russian puppet state. you all were warned, but you still are doing nothing, Don't expect help, if you won't help yourself.
Well if you are going to go "no masks" Donald, you should add "no hair plugs, no orange face dye, no oversized veneers and no wearing diapers on a golf course"
The German resistance consisted of small, isolated groups that were unable to mobilize mass political opposition.
In power, Nazi leaders quickly banned extra-party demonstrations, fearing displays of dissent on open urban spaces might develop and grow, even without organization.
Musk will be hating and retweeting this surely? He hates totalitarianism. Always falsely accusing Starmer of it. Now he has a genuine case, let's see what happens....
What’s an “illegal protest” on a college campus? This is how it works: shut down protests, then print and broadcast media, then turn the military on American citizens. This last item is very possible now as the Judge Advocate Generals have been let go.
Trump wants to turn the US into Russia and obtain absolute power. He loves Putin and even seems to look at him as a role model. Americans need to stand up to this unless they want to give up their country to the new oligarchy. Dont help the people that want to destroy the constitution-boycott Tesla
What's an "illegal protest?" Is Trump cancelling the right to free speech? Who is going to stop him? ENOUGH.
The First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the freedom of speech, religion, and the press. It also protects the right to peacefully assemble and petition the government
I'm not a supporter of Republican politics, but it's worth remembering that not every Republican is happy about what trump and his cronies are up to. @rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social
He wants to imprison / kill anyone who doesn’t bow down to his petty little self. His cruelty is profound.
Cannot imagine how awful it is to be him. This much hate must weigh him down.
Did I wake up in China?
Hey what did you do to get expelled from college? “Oh I was at a protest for Pro-Choice” cool. I got expelled for protesting gerrymandering!
We need a big voice organizing country wide protests NOW…while we still can!! @adamkinzinger.bsky.social @tedlieu.bsky.social @ericswalwell.bsky.social will any of YOU lead??
Here in Europe we wonder why you guys don't start using those second amendment toys you all seem to be so fond of. wasn't that meant for a situation like this?

The list is long and infamous.

Considering that Trump and Musk are currently riding roughshod over the Constitution at the moment, why aren't you defending it already?

Trump doesn’t want anyone to exercise the first amendment, but himself, Musk & his minions! 🤬

1-You can’t violate anyone’s First Amendment rights
2-Universities, Schools and Colleges already have an established Code of Conduct that students have to adhere to.
3-Expulsion from a University, School or Colleges cannot be made
1/2

Why the fuck are you still a Republican?
Our country is in trouble.
One End
2ndA folks:
Murdering the king is Constitutional
51% not required
Other end
Trumpism:
POTUS & LE absolute immunity
Middle
Public:
Press, public/prvt orgs, protest, destruction of inanimate objects
Until crushed by either end.
What a cute line to add on to a paragraph that’ll get his skull filled with lead.
The German resistance consisted of small, isolated groups that were unable to mobilize mass political opposition.
In power, Nazi leaders quickly banned extra-party demonstrations, fearing displays of dissent on open urban spaces might develop and grow, even without organization.
What should we expect?
There are no rules.
You have to fight for your freedom and democracy again.
And serious he should be impeached and Trump deserved a life time prison for violating us constitution.
And I’m deeply sorry that I voted for this con man.
The First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the freedom of speech, religion, and the press. It also protects the right to peacefully assemble and petition the government
I’m amazed

Unlawful and unconstitutional acts surely do not fall within that?
Time to impeach (as a minimum).
Do not comply
Hey what did you do to get expelled from college? “Oh I was at a protest for Pro-Choice” cool. I got expelled for protesting gerrymandering!
This motherfucker is completely out of control and he needs to be stopped
It just gets worse by the minute.
