He's actually tried last time to have protesters shot, and Nixon got away with it. Only because the defense secretary refused the order last time, but the moron secretary now certainly won't refuse it!! He'd be broadcasting it out to his family and friends...
And we know that there's enough cops and military members that would be happy to shoot protesters, or minorities, or anyone else that they believe are the enemy... we know that many have 2 digit IQs....
We're really stuck with protesting & voting, it's up to the courts, judges, & the Republicans that have balls to stop this! Apparently there's impeachment papers filed for the congress to pick up & vote on, & I believe they know that getting rid of him now will be the end of his threats to them too.
All of that has economic power when exercised by all, or many people properly, boycotts of supporting corporations. Look at Tesla, Amazon and Meta right now. Elon is done in this country. We did that in one month of protests and took almost 2.2B from his crappy company. We did that. Globally.
Yes, we have some power to help change the things we can, but the judicial branch has to do what they are required to do, and for some reason it's an infuriatingly long process...
Lisa Murkowski, a republican Senator from Alaska came out on the subject of fearing retaliation from the admin if choosing not to participate in #GOP madness, fearing intimidation from colleagues. Congress, right? Like who never left high school? They're just schoolyard bullies.
I was 8, watching it on the news, my parents literally in shock seeing it.
I had cousins on college campuses protesting Vietnam, and cousins and neighbors kids over there fighting. My babysitter's brother was killed in Vietnam, and my cousins luckily came back...
And then immediately arrest your CO and Trump and do your damn jobs! Every day Trump is still president is a day each member of the military is violating their oath.
Do you mean the oath the military takes to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic? Trump is a domestic threat to the Constitution, the country, and the world. He is a terrorist.
I never said anything about any soldier or the entire military taking over the presidency. It's about removing a president that is a domestic threat to the Constitution; which is the oath. Pretty simple.
epublicans take over and destroy government to “prove” it doesn’t work. F_ _ _ them! And that’s most strongly directed at the GOP and MAGA fascists taking home government paychecks — and the ones stealing personal data to commit physical, emotional and financial crimes against everyone in America.
Military and law enforcement of every stripe, including ICE, need to know that there will be support for standing up to magat minions issuing unconstitutional orders. Remember: your oath is to the Constitution not the 🍊💩 or the heritage foundation Nazis.

Dont forget that, we won't.
Or live the rest of your life knowing what you did, and looking over your shoulder till the day you die.
