New Right rules for American Caesar—courts need to send in the U.S. Marshalls to arrest the Department Leaders like Rubio, Noem https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/04/inside-the-new-right-where-peter-thiel-is-placing-his-biggest-bets

We will! I don’t know how, but he is too disgusting to leave in power. You are giving in.

There’s no lawful solution, so other options will need to be explored.

No one could have seen this coming, except most of us who have been screaming for him to be held accountable to the law for 9 years straight.

He literally got a “get out of jail free” card from SCOTUS

doubletee80.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yep. He’s untouchable.

It's why I think we need a work walkout. They can shut down the government and declare emergency powers when not warranted. What can we do? Peacefully, walkout. Millions of people would exercise the people's power in response to their power. Above all, they covet money. That's where it hurts.

And, we'd be at home, no way to target people for arrest if we're safely at home.

Unless we build momentum

Not so fast. The courts have another mechanism to use instead of the Marshalls if they so choose. Obviously, the DOJ will stop Marshalls, but the court can appoint someone else to hold account. The question remains, will they exercise that?

This. It is now. Thanks.

No one….so how does that all play out for the career of lawyer when no one pays attention to court rulings?

He was impeached twice and never left.

Precisely. All during Biden’s term, while we were saying things like statute of limitations etc…, the “have patience “ crowd kept saying well, that time resets as he continues criming. Okay. So who’s going to have the tenacity to call that out? Right. No one. And no one did. Garland FAILED.

Anyone who thinks Trump is behind all this is missing something. We need to direct our attention to the owners of the corporations financing him and the Foundations that are working behind the scenes. Trump is a tool.
