This principle protects against authoritarian misuse of military power and preserves civilian control. Deploying troops without state approval, especially to suppress protest, is a clear violation of both legal precedent and democratic norms.

Honest question, though... Who, that you've seen recently on socials, is both "not liberal" but also not fascist? I don't see any non-MAGA GOP saying a word about anything. And MAGA *ARE* fascists and Nazis. Repubs as we knew them are dead and buried, and they're as sure as hell not speaking out.

It's only a problem for those Senators if midterm elections actually happen in 2026. I haven't seen much in their posture, words, or deeds that convinces me that they plan to let that happen. Everything about this bill and what ICE and the MAGA regime are doing screams that elections won't occur.

Imagine literally living the American dream, having built up a thriving business after drug abuse earlier in life and throwing it all away for Trump. No pardon can ever bring back all that success, money, or dignity. Lindell destroyed not only his life, but the livelihood of his employees. For HIM.
