Yo!

eddiemauldin.bsky.social•89 days ago

Showing this to our lawmakers like a desperate trainer trying to teach an old dog new tricks.

zaisarel.bsky.social•89 days ago

Nothing ever happens, I guess

chilirlw.bsky.social•89 days ago

WTF even was this whole thing?!?

onbuzzer.bsky.social•89 days ago

Nothing but respect for the aides that held the doors closed against the advancing military so the lawmakers could vote. This is how you hold the line in a democracy!

pettychocolate.bsky.social•89 days ago

Aliens my ass they're trying to distract us from this

kasiarose.bsky.social•89 days ago

Yoon is a blight to South Korea and harkens back to a time in their history that doesn’t need repeating. Kind of like Trump & the US. 🥴

Phil. All I found on the origin is the the opposite party is supporting north Korea. Can you confirm the cause of this issue?

chucktt.bsky.social•89 days ago

Hopefully are lawmakers have the balls to do that when trump tries it.

janaykinney.bsky.social•89 days ago

I just said that. I know his ass is taking notes, so I hope the House is, too!

drawmeasheep.bsky.social•89 days ago

So they just said no?

kuujiflow.bsky.social•89 days ago

That's usually how it works

Update: It’s ended & S. Korean Pres is in big trouble.

Well, just like during COVID, what a wonderful time to be putting all this awesome responsibility in the hands of a proven, competent crisis manager.

I have my doubts that there would be that kind of resistance here.

lastcallforaj.bsky.social•89 days ago

This will/would never happen in America.

kuujiflow.bsky.social•89 days ago

You do Jan 6th was like three years ago, right?

lastcallforaj.bsky.social•89 days ago

They’d never vote unanimously to block martial law here.

kuujiflow.bsky.social•89 days ago

All I'm saying is never say never

abecedarian.bsky.social•89 days ago

Soon this will be us

aaronamal.bsky.social•89 days ago

Def didn't have this on my doomsday bingo card but here we are🤷🏿‍♂️

kwh561.bsky.social•89 days ago

hey can we get that in our constitution too or is it too late

jables.bsky.social•89 days ago

Our constitution already doesn’t have a mechanism for the president to declare this in the first place

kwh561.bsky.social•89 days ago

cool

sh93tilinfinity.bsky.social•89 days ago

When Trump sees this news

elena2024.bsky.social•89 days ago

We should learn from it and get ready... might use this experience in January

girthwindandfire.bsky.social•89 days ago

It's genuinely fucking insane how the US Constitution inspired so many other Constitutions and democracies around the world, yet now in 2024 is not only GREATLY outdated by many of them, but far less defended or enforced

The US set the example, then repeatedly failed to live up to it
