Complete constitutional crisis. Total failure of both Article I and Article III.

Meanwhile, Congress is rushing towards shutting down govt bc, apparently like SCOTUS, it refuses to make a GOP President follow ANY laws.

Welcome to March; there may be Ides.

We do not, in fact, have checks nor balances.

Fatso Trump's appointment of RFK Jr, and its approval by the Senate, is a super-spreader event.

Murderers!

I'm a bit unsure of this but don't the US military swear allegiance to the constitution? Surely a military takeover is the right thing to do now?

Counting down to the 15th ...

But on the 14th we'll have PI..........

Unless they want a shut down to facilitate more RIFs or something is there any reason they don't just mint the trillion dollar coin? I don't see why they would suffer a shut down if they don't want one and there is some procedural trick that can prevent it.

The US constitution is being proven to just be a list of suggestions at this point and it’s only the beginning.

Looking at events and the complete subjugation of GOP & DEMS there is no stopping these events without an intervention of might.

It was Mao who said “All political power comes through the barrel of a gun”.

And I imagine the inaction at SCOTUS is the same paralysis expressed by Cole and Collins. "We can't dare ask that a GOP President follow the law."

The Global Health plaintiffs are going under while SCOTUS dithers. Why would Lockheed be treated any differently?

Lockheed literally isn't being treated differently with the Ukraine aid halt. SOTUS not saying anything is just insanity. Complete repudiation of contract law and the full faith and credit of the US Government.

The inaction at SCOTUS is because Roberts is part of the destruction.

Trump is just exploiting American apathy. You choose this, and will shortly no doubt buy his BS and blame the rest of the world for America’s outrageous stupidity

If the system doesn't do what it's supposed to then the people have to step in as the ultimate checks and balances

Cool. All three branches of government are compromised and either hostile to the people or feckless and unable to exercise power. This is real checks and balances, not the bullshit we were all taught.
