Now if they f execute their traitor like we should be doing w ours and his co-conspirators this problem be solved&oh yes those executions must be on live TV for not only every American to see but the entire world that way they know that that s is not going to happen again. Then we deal with Russia
We are a Nation of Laws but the current president can ignore the law and for some reason a “policy” at the DOJ prevents the US from arresting the president who is ignoring the law. That is some circular logic. We have a Monarchy. This is going to make July 4th awkward.
If this order is upheld, it effectively rewrites how U.S. democracy functions, turning the presidency into the sole arbiter of the law. Whether courts block it or not will determine if the U.S. maintains its system of checks and balances or moves toward authoritarian rule
I know you guys don't teach geography over there but you do have at least like ONE map right? Have you heard of the American Continent? It has a shitload of countries and we are all american. I'm sorry your country doesn't even have a real name...
So much hesitation and pity were extended to him. He was given passes after passes by Garland.
And now he’s destroying the nation and the world for that matter without pity and hesitation.
They were protecting him from his destructive actions and now he is destroying the whole nation, and the world for that matter without any hesitation and pity.
America's government is much to corrupt, too weak, to arrest trump for treason. Glad other countries have laws that are dealt with rather than ignored like the republicans do.
I agree. There are a lot of people to blame for the situation we’re in right now, but I put the highest blame on McConnell. All he had to do was vote to keep Trump off the ballot, but he just wouldn’t do it; even after Trump insulted his wife.
Also democrats inability to realise they're not fighting Bush era republicans but authoritarians within a cult. And yet even today they're still acting as it they need to work together. Did MTG or Boobert ever said the same for Biden?
I think they get the picture now. But yeah Biden played nice b/c he still managed to get things done but he should have replaced Garland. Garland was ineffectual.
HEY REPUBLICANS! WOKE UP AND SMELL THE DEMOCRACY & the robust fragrance of the RULE OF LAW. Your Party will go down in history as the perp that tried to destroy the "Great Experiment" of the American Republic. When we take it all back very soon, you will be in the minority forever.
Will anyone in Congress step up and do the right thing? I feel like we are on the Titanic and Congress is the band playing as we sink. There has to be a way to stop this insanity.
I agree. We are going to have to save ourselves. Right now there are too many people just sitting back and letting this happen. I don't think people realize how bad this could get. And, now he is aligning us with Russia to steal resources from other countries.
But Brazil shows it can be done because it was able to learn from its shortcomings. Not possible in a nation where so many deny there are any shortcomings.
Up to a point though. Both parties in Brazil suck from the Russian teat. And Lula was found guilty of corruption before, by a right-wing judge. So this is just revenge and performative.
In a couple years someone else will determine Bolsonaro was innocent and will be set free.
Lula is set to go to Paris to argue for Ukraine’s rights with European leaders. Brazil has repeatdly denounced Russia’s agression and is a known defender of peace and international rule of law.
That is a more recent development. Because while Argentina was getting destroyed by the Kirchneristas who worked for Putin Lula was giving both of them validity.
So forgive me if I don't trust him. He helped the worst government in my life to last longer than it should've.
My impression is that the Canadian in you is giving Russia a lot more power than it really has, specially in LA. Brazil’s international strategy is to diversify its partnerships, which is proving itself sensible by current developments in the US. In no way has Brazil ever validated Russian agressio
Lula helped the Kirchner government establish links with Putin early in their government. He was part of a massive corruption scheme between both countries and he shielded the Kirchnerists for years. So as both Argentinian and Canadian I don't trust him.
I didn't vote for the current idiot. I knew he was going to be as bad as the eternal peronistas. I'm out of representation in my country of birth. I'm glad Canada has better options and as soon as I finish my citizenship process I'll be voting accordingly.
Bolsonaro is not innocente, and in his count have 700.000 brazilians died with covid! Bolsonaro is a fucking dictator and Genocide, must past the rest of his life in prison
I didn't say he is innocent. I said that another judge in the near future will set him free. That's how Latin America works. I've lived 37 years in that region.
That's not how LA works. Videla spent many years free (thanks to Menem pardon) but was arrested and died in prison. While BR dictators weren't even judged. LA is not simple.
Videla was arrested again because Kirchner wanted to co-opt the lefties before they would oppose him, since he didn't won the election and his position was weak. He was second place in the first round of the election in 2003.
And we technically have more than two parties in Argentina too. But except for the Peronistas nobody else last long enough. So it default to a bipartidary system. And the same is happening in your side.
Are we sure that most of the Dems in Congress aren’t complicit in this current coup? Their silence is DEAFENING! Are they scared? If so, what do they think WE’RE feeling right now? Especially those of us who live in red states! There are a lot of us who are dumbfounded by their inaction. It’s crazy!
Proud of Brazil. US has a mafia thug who is a vindictive cult leader. Billionaires owning US media for propaganda for the mafia thug & numerous far right influencers in their eco system parroting the propaganda for their mafia king. Finally, there's Mitch Turtle McConnell who could have nipped it.
The more independent Supreme Courts are in representative democracies, the more the autocracy-lovers put undue pressure on the justices to rule in their favor on their pet issues. Think Israel. Think Pakistan. And now think the USA where justices could risk time at Guantanamo for resistance.
Not total yet. Even their decision in Crime Is Encouraged v USA (2024) has exceptions for non official acts. The sleaze disease hasn't totally infected everyone yet. There's still hope the a Founding Fathers' dream of representative democracy in a powerful legislature will survive unitary executive.
Better add Argentina to the list, they want to impeach Millei for ONE crypto rug pull. The US just put the king of crypto pump and dumps in charge of the entire economy
O que existe nos EUA sequer deveria ser chamado de democracia. Vocês nem sabem como elegem o próprio presidente e só têm dois partidos que no fim das contas são duas faces da mesma moeda.
Brazilian law is kinda different. He isnt being charged by any particular state (thats not how it works here), its by the federal institutions. Its a way bigger deal.
Merrick Garbage obstructed investigations into felon34's role in the insurrection because he thought political optics was more important than justice... And Biden is the moron who chose him as traitor general.
Brazil is experiencing a LAWFARE dictatorship of the judiciary with the corrupt president Lula da Silva who arrests his opponents.
There is no example to show the world.
Oh, it's a SHAME!
The ministers who will judge Bolsonaro were appointed by corrupt president Lula da Silva. Alexandre de Moraes (alleged victim and judge) Flavio Dino CCP🇨🇳, Cristiano Zanin, Lula's former lawyer, Luiz Fux and Carmen Lucia CCP🇨🇳.
WOULD A CORRUPT ONE APPOIN HONEST JUDGES?
Check it out Raphiwsk!😆
Yes, a corrupt person appointed another corrupt person. Same lineage as Lula.
You are very stressed, take care of your heart. Take advantage and wash your mouth, speak a lot of insults.
Just talk, Blue Sky is a healthy space.
And all we have are bought-and-paid-for congress critters scared of their own shadows… let’s evict the ones that went to Moscow on our Independence Day.
Yes if Brazil can do it why couldn’t the decent forces in the US do it. Charge Trump and move him out of the White House. He is a criminal. This is the guy that was supposed to fight for the very people that are now being fired by mentally ill Musk.
Yet our country didn't do a damn thing to that orange antichrist. There's still time though if only the military or the marshals do what they promised to do, by OATH.
Unfortunately that's what it's going to take. I don't see how no one else doesn't see this happening. If not the military then his own followers are going to turn on him.
Tried to impeach the Felon King twice last time - even after orchestrating an insurrection to overturn the election, those Republican spineless bastards couldn’t stand up for what was right. Hope history lays out the truth
Because its not about legality for them, they make the law. Its about popularity and votes. The only way Trump gets impeached is if moderate republicans think they are loosing votes.
The only way an impeachment happens *now* is that the minority Congress has to convince a splinter of the rightwing to turn on T, then the same thing has to happen in the senate. I don’t want a military coup, we’re running headfirst into annihilation already.
That's why I've been saying that we need to protest at GOP offices, their homes and at the Supreme Court. We can't depend on just the democrats because they aren't in power. I have no trust for the judicial system. If we protest enough at the GOP maybe some will come to their senses, maybe.
Its all about making republicans think they will loose their seats AND electing democrats by midterm (if thats possible and trump/musk hasnt rigged everything in 2 years)
That's why we should be protesting at GOP offices and maybe their homes. If enough people do this and chant that we will vote them out they might, might listen. Other than a civil war which no one wants I don't see another way to get us out of this
From where Im standing, looks like red state representatives have to turn on Trump. I don’t see that as an impossible thing, as most americans (I believe) are not radicalized and voted due to economic issues - and Trump is incompetent. He will fail.
You’ve thrown an actual king. Im sure you guys can. Just, be more of a country and less of a bunch of companies in a trench coat pretending you are one.
People are held accountable in most countries, and Brazil is one of the most corrupt countries in the World (but improving) so that really says a lot about the USA. Politicians who fail (Democrat leadership) usually steps down. Politicians who are corrupt and caught resign. Never to run again.
I'd like to remind that most corruption indices are about perception of corruption and things that are considered corruption in the Brazilian public eye are basically legalized in the US
This is why I'm part of Operation Hope (see https://PopulistPlank.com) and am Project Director for @the75.bsky.social . We fight for economic justice, direct democracy, and a corruption-free government. This isn’t left vs. right—it’s the people vs. the corrupt elite.
But are you sure it’s not just one group of corrupt dirt bags in the courts against another group of corrupt dirt bags?
Why do you trust their courts anymore than any of their other branches?
Joyce, or anyone, why is this country not doing what Brazil and other countries have done? Why? Please? Is it my fear, in that our citizens simply are disengaged and don't care enough because things don't hurt enough yet? Are we that far removed from how precious and lucky we are to be citizens?
I feel Merrick Garland was previously bought. He was more than likely part of the set up of Putin's infrastructure to delay, obfuscate and do sod all.. allowing for Trump's regime to build in the shadows. Otherwise a competent Democratic position like his would have stopped this in it's tracks
Joyce we have MAGA militias. Gun happy Trumplicans who are armed to the teeth. Unless everyone has s ready to go wildwest we are screwed( I have guns I’m willingly to go Wild West)
B0ls0n4r0 made it easy for regular people to buy guns. We don't have the nra, but here the police and army are on confress pushing for fewer gun restrictions to build a neopentecostal army...
Yea, it can be done. But not in the US. The GOP is fucking (sorry Joyce) rotten to the core. The amount of kissassing and trying to not be targeted by the biggest damn weak-kneed pussy on the planet is embarrassing as hell. American living abroad here. The entire world is laughing at the US.
Bring that strength to the wimps on Capital Hill. I would be giving concerning ultimatums to Congressional Monkeys 🐒 & Senate Trolls 🧌. TRUMP MUST BE SENT DOWN...🔥
Don't worry, I'm sure the dems are cooking something up for 2053 when none of this matters and they can say "we were always against this evil" despite being the reason we're in this to begin with
Too bad ours was not 1) impeached and/or 2) convicted of treason and thrown in the clink. Instead he's running slipshod over everyone who has slighted him in the past, including countries (like Panama where he had a resort and hotel that had a disastrous ending for him). Retribution is his game.
Are you going to file Bar Complaints against trump’s fascist enablers? You are a prominent attorney. If you did that, it might be taken seriously. Don’t just opine: Do it.
This is happening because Brazil is a country that embraces the rule of law. America is now the dumpster fire of lawlessness and corruption. America is like a diseased horse, running through a hospital at full speed. What could go wrong?
Could have been done. But AG Garland didn’t. I’m so sad about that. Merrick Garland is a good man but he was a terrible USAG. One of many things that another good man-Biden- should have fixed but didn’t.
Already, ICE are carrying out extrajudicial snatches & deportations. Gitmo has been expanded for this purpose. Except it doesn’t effect most Americans & so it’ll be ignored.
We knew it could be done. It should have been done. And it would have been done if the Senate Republicans cared for country over party and for democracy over power. The fact that it wasn’t done is on them, and Mitch McConnell, in particular.
WE'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE. As now, in the 1790s, U.S. experienced partisan violence, anarchy, secession threats & civil war. Political leaders finally woke up, put country over party, supported the Constitution, & warned the public that tyranny is the alternative to not following the Constitution.
They set him up. Just like Dilma's impeachment. The had nothing against her, she was innocent. They planned helding Lula while taking Dilma out of the chair. It started with the banks and major companies associated with the opposition.
That's the begging of the raise of far right in Brazil.
If Biden and the Democrats actually tried Trump would be in prison right now and would have been made ineligible under the Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3. The Democrats are complicit collaborators.
Yes, they have, and that's legitimate and only fair. Let's hope that "our" "regime change" inclination does not undermine the process, nor the government and legal system making sure that Bol. does pay for his responsibility for the attack on the Palácio do Planalto (imitating our own...).
No they haven't! Brazil took almost as long to charge Bolsanaro for this coup attempt (two and a bit years) as it took the US Government to charge Trump over his attempts to interfere with the 2020 election (two and a half years).
I agree 💯 before I came here, I thought it was the most powerful country in the world! Took me 41 years to realize that.
A felon, heading to prison CHEATS in an election & Democrats don't request recounts after Russia confessed to calling in bomb threats to Dem precincts in 7 battleground states!
It's possible here if we had an AG w/a sense of urgency to get justice! But apparently Merrick Garland only has 2 speeds...Slow & stop! He's the most spineless, pathetic, excuse of an AG I can recall since Nixon folks! Had he gotten off his ass...Kamala would be Pres.!
I am watching @joy.msnbc.com right now and she just had @barbmcquade.bsky.social on as a guest when this news broke... Can you believe this delusional fool...?? 🙄 Please take note of the red box with yellow outline at bottom...
Yeah... I'm thinking they would be a bit offended if he went in an tried to argue that he's right and his Executive Order stands because he knows all and the sun rises & sets on him & him alone...!! 🙄🤣🤣
Ukraine's Fault! What Twilight Zone episode are we watching right now!! Ok, Americans on the Right, please slap yourself if you think Russia's invasion of Ukraine is Ukraine's Fault!!! This is a coup and we're now with this Axis Alliance!!! America vs Swastikar aka MAGA!! https://youtu.be/Ebi-KWZlGug?si=x16hVPI_iNiVuQPR
Well, Merrick Garland did a great job of not ruffling any feathers inside the beltway. We listened to former DOJ people on all those talk shows defend his steady judicial demeanor for four years. Then it was too late. What white shoe firm will he end up at for his big payday?
New data demonstrates that the election wasn't FAIR because the outcome came as a result of preventing Harris voters from voting, by intimidation, lies & purging of voter registration rolls. We are guaranteed FAIR elections.
They purged legitimate voters from the voter rolls and that's both illegal and unethical. There are more democrats than republicans, which is why they HAVE to resort to all of the things they do; gerrymandering, fake electors, intimidation, lying, and so on.
It was a multiple pronged attack that stole the presidency.

Other countries routinely hold their highest public officers to account. We are so constrained by tacit agreement that Presidents can never face jail time. So no one takes the first step.
Can you imagine we have to take a page about corruption and ethics from the Brazilian people! It's a sad f***** day for america. But I think things are coming to a head 🤔🙏 i have a feeling musk and trump are on a collision course

Bolsonaro in jail
And now he’s destroying the nation and the world for that matter without pity and hesitation.
America needs a new congress.
Not enforcing the 14 A and keeping the coup leader and Insurrectionist off of the presidential ballot.
Trump if we had rule of law intact should be in prison!!!
McConnell knew to have a successful coup the Republicans needed a captured SCOTUS.
It’s an infiltration of traitors in every branch of government.
Your cascade failure is the same as a coup.
Call it what you will, it’s the same outcome.
In a couple years someone else will determine Bolsonaro was innocent and will be set free.
So forgive me if I don't trust him. He helped the worst government in my life to last longer than it should've.

In a situation where all three branches of government are corrupted, it’s for the States to raise a well organised militia, is it not?
Because that’s the only way out of this, I’m afraid.
You've long crossed the Rubicon.
Don't rely on the military nor Marshalls. ARISE
Good for Brazil standing up to tyranny!
Why do you trust their courts anymore than any of their other branches?
