Man, have to say, it's quite refreshing to hear that come from someone else's mouth that isn't mine. I am quite sure there are plenty of us out there, but I am certainly not hearing this message enough from others.

I've been saying this over and over again. Who will enforce anything?

That's the problem with all the handwaving about the Constitution and checks and balances. They only matter if there's no visceral fear in the hearts of our leaders of what happens if they don't work. Are the courts prepared to enforce their restraining orders? What does that even look like?

Did anyone ever answer your question WITHOUT relying on the courts or other processes that have been corrupted?

Give us the word. I will join my fellow Americans in the streets. Better to die free than live enslaved. 🇺🇲 🚬😎

Unfortunately, the system was setup wrong. And it was not altered over time. And it got worse over time. And here we are today at the inevitable result.

That’s the exact same question we’ve ALL been asking for weeks. We’ve been relying on our representatives to answer it. But so far, it appears that all they can do is to tell us how bad it is and offer no solutions.* *other than suggest bills that won’t be passed. * @aoc.bsky.social excluded

No creativity. Playing nice and thinking the “law” will have any effect on his lawlessness is ridiculous.

So true because he doesn’t seem to understand the meaning of no, he believes he above the law.

That's the million dollar question. At some point (no Medicaid) Republican voters will join us in the streets.

And then trump declares martial law, a d his newly appointed henchmen attack.

I’m not holding my breath on republicans. What have they done lately except to support this shit?

Trump is gearing up the military to take action within the US against protesters. He’ll declare an emergency Expect & plan for brutality Signed, Portland 2020

Most dont understand where we stand today. Americans don’t see dictatorship or the fall of democracy as a real threat. It’s something foreign and the idea of the U.S. collapsing into authoritarianism seems unthinkable. But we’re learning the hard way that democracy is not a spectator sport.

We’re here now! Our democracy has been eroding before our eyes, and most barely notice. "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands... may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny." - James Madison

Between firing top JAG lawyers & issuing an executive order granting himself and the AG sole authority to interpret the law for the executive branch, Trump significantly expanded executive power. While courts can still issue rulings, enforcement may be undermined if federal agencies refuse to act.

With courts powerless & enforcement agencies under his control, Trump could defy rulings without consequence. If the military is the last resort, his power to interpret the law lets him order them to stand down. The fate of Constitution may rest with states or military leaders willing to resist.

This will take all of us! “I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.” – Marc Elias RESIST!!!

@skyview.social unroll

I would like to see all US military in Europe under the command of SACEUR Cavioli being faithful to the constitution and the NATO alliance, disregarding the traitors of the Trump administration.

Now, if that actually happened, can you imagine how furious the 🍊💩 would be?

This! Resist, obstruct, refuse.

@skyview.bsky.social unroll

George is a hero!

@50501movement.bsky.social March 4th protest. Every State Capital.

Why not ignore when you have immunity?!

You’re one of the only voices out there making sense right now

You are absolutely right. The very people who could have told him that he was not immune from prosecution did just the opposite and created the biggest megalomaniac since Adolf Hitler. They screwed America and by doing so, have screwed themselves. I never thought I'd live to see an impotent SCOTUS!

Months of posting “Point of no RETURN”. America will never be the same and if you want Democracy you will have to go TAKE IT FROM THEM!!! Civility died Nov 5th 2024

The GOP has been replaced by sycophants

I've heard we need 3.5% of the population out in the streets. Do you have any information on this stat by chance? If that is the number, we should be able to do better than that and have the disillusioned Trump voters join us.

That's what scares me the most. What if he just ignores all the laws, court orders, etc? What can we do? Revolt? Physically remove him from office?

What if?! He most certainly will and is ignoring the law. Something far more dramatic and creative needs to be done. And remember, the MAGAts have the guns.

Citizens arrest at Casa Blanca

The key question. The French know how to do it - but Americans?

Exactly right George, because History books will say, T h e r e w a s n o o n e to s t o p h i m! ....."WHY? Why would he obey the Supreme Court?", asks George Conway.

That’s the problem, isn’t it? You have to wait for things to finally hit Republicans in the face. But when will that be? When they lose their job? Their house? Can’t afford food? When???? If ever????

The person responding to you has that correct! The only way for the oppressed to overcome the oppressor(s) is when at least some of the oppressors join with the oppressed to change things. Which is why our Civil Rights & women’s rights movements (also people with disabilities) were successful!

Absolutely

George Conway is absolutely right! Trump only wants raw power and will DESTROY anything that gets in his way - including the courts, the military, us and everything we and our forebearers built. Look no further than what he did to the GOP subservience. Autocracy is not in our DNA. Fight!

Exactly the question that should be answered by the Judicial Branch. The legislative can only try to do but so much. It’s all up to the SUPREME Justices and they at least 4 of the 5 are under Trumps control and spell. GREED & hate.

J'adore votre franc parler. Comment comprendre que la dame auprès de vous n'ait pas allumé que les tribunaux ne sont plus une solution. Il faut le mouvement de masse, avec pression "écrasante" sur les représentants/sénateurs locaux GOP et exiger qu'ils passent indépendants. Ensuite, impeach ASAP.

Pattern recognition. People who are great at pattern recognition, see what’s coming. Especially those who understand narcissists, or who have been in an abusive relationship. Everyone else still thinks the law will stop him.

Hoping for a SCOTUS 5-4 decision? SMH. Some of us REALLY need to wake up! Masha Gessen's Surviving Autocracy Rule #3: Institutions will not save you. www.nybooks.com/online/2016/...

If we take to the streets, he’s going to have us shot.

Why is it that everyone in the world knew this was coming with Trump 2.0, but the US? Those 2 panelists are representative of Americans looking like deer in the headlights. There should have been a democratic war room ready to fight this coup from day one! People need wake the fuck up!🔥✊️

The Democratic party benefits just as much from this as the GOP. How many fundraising emails and posts have you seen. "Oh, the humanity! Send us money!" Until ALL of our leaders understand what's at stake and stop being opportunistic twatwaffles, there will be no real action against this.

I think they didn't have a plan because they thought they were going to win. Now they're scrambling. Always have a backup!

Their war games were spent strategizing for Russian tanks rolling through the streets of D.C.

Democrats have done nothing BUT tell everyone to take this seriously. Your criticism should always AT LEAST include #@senaterep & #@houserep. Nothing is stopping you from finding organizations and organizing against these traitorous pricks.

Right! We knew it was all laid out in project 2025 and speeches. The right knew they would suffer for the cause. However they may be surprised by how much or that it impacts them. FAFO time

I’ll tell you my husband is one of the smartest people I know. He has done this the entire time: “Oh the courts will stop him.” Whaaaaat?!! I am shocked at how naive some ppl are about criminal behavior…..

🌀✨ My lawyer friend said the same. Count on the courts! I’m like …👇🏼👇🏼

lol!!

🌀✨ Can I just be The Dude for the next…I don’t know how many years? 🌀✨

Yes!! Be The Dude! However long you need to or till we start boycotting vodka🤣

This unchecked aggression will not abide, man.

Lol

It's as if US citizens are watching a TV show. You have to be active members of democracy to keep it alive. Fight back!

Agree! Dems are SO naive!!!

Yes, even pundits need to get out of their chairs and out in the streets.

I feel your pain George. He gives 2 💩💩 about laws, courts, judges, pens, papers, or protests, and will continue violating the country invincibley with GOP's blessing. WHAT ARE OUR OPTIONS, and spare me the blah blahs and wump wumps, please??

www.masslive.com/news/2025/02...

He’s a cheap thug…watched The Godfather too many times!

Storm the Bastille

Republicans couldn't care less if Dems/Libs etc...take to the streets. They will MAYBE...listen to their constituents, the ones who put them in office.🤷🏽‍♀️

'We need to hope it's a 5-4 decision.' Sure. Because then Trump will respect it. Do they really not get what's going on here? This is the opposition's resistance strategy? Hope a toxic narcissist will fundamentally change his lifetime nature because SCOTUS votes against him? Just depressing.

You have been the one and are still pretty much one of the only ones to truly get what's happening.

Yes, of course he will. He cares about NOTHING except himself and tearing down this country. And no one will do anything about it.

He should be arrested thrown in jail😡

So everyone is going to just cowar “what can we do? What can we do? We need the people to do something - he whimpers! Democrats in Congress could find ways to throw sand in everything Trump/musk doing And stand up to Trump But cowards say oh no, not me “ it’s the people” who NEED do something !

Once he violates court orders then his orders are ignored also. A lawless administration will not stand.

Brown Shirts are here Watched a woman get dragged out of a meeting in IDAHO where she was practicing FREE Speech Everyone watched There wasn't an AMERICAN MAN in the audience

I watched as those “men” watched a woman being dragged out of a room. Despicable.

It's because they are in on it. Every single one of those people who sat pretty isn't because they were afraid, it's because they agreed with the kidnapping of that woman

They gloated

Its cliche to say Bingo, so BINGO

Yep, its out here it's hard to fight , SO keeping fighting!

Why did they watch it happen without action? There were more than enough people in that room to prevent those thugs from dragging that woman out. They’d have to drag me out along with her.

Same reason German peoplewere silent, they secretly liked what was happening, in Germany they were able to ransack the homes of the Jewish People's homes, after they were hauled off for Slavery or Death.

LDS sheep

Idaho left the US ages ago

Lost, them to Macho man.

There’s nothing macho about those clowns

I was referring to who they think they are, most of the time if I respond these days its all tongue in cheek. Keep fighting, WE can win.

Telling conservative people who are beginning to speak out to Fuck off is the WORST thing we can do. We MUST drive trumps numbers down. Only when conservative congress see his support dropping will they act. Not one second before that. Encourage conservative people to speak out. Encourage speech

The law is meaningless unless it can be enforced. They haven’t been marched out in chains. That tells us everything we need to know about enforcement. Besides he’s a felon sitting in the White House. The problem is clear.

We need to get out in the streets. Pure and simple!

How do we do this? I want to. I need to. I don't know how or where ? I'm in rockford il. Nothing ever happens here.... small towns and cities need leaders here so we can ALL protest at same time and every day!

If the answer is “people out in the streets” and “GOP needs to be part of that number”… I think it’s safe to say, we’re collectively fucked… This has to start with reshaping the conversation, maga rules the airwaves, they are running the narrative currently Mid-terms next year…

This was exactly what Chavez did, he did not obey anything while he was changing the system. People think that this will never happen and is why they do not have answers.

And they’re thinking is the same ole same ole. The LAW in these times is meaningless.

I’ll believe conservatives marching against trumps takeover when I see it. And I doubt I’ll see it. Maybe ever.

The Republican position is we have 3 co-equal branches, not SC above the other 2. So, if Trump and SC disagree, it's up to Congress to break the tie. But I think Trump will defy both, unless Congress has the votes to impeach and convict.

There are some highly skilled FBI guys, that have some time on their hands!

Do you agree with Carville’s strategy? youtu.be/XhjlGH5P3NA

I don't believe it's going to be that easy, unfortunately. I am hoping though! We need to stop this coup. Although what about the Muskrat having access to all of our federal agencies and information? That can't be taken back. He's got it all.

The right loves to rile up the left and our protests give them weird pleasure. We need to start taking back any any every election we can with solutions not complaints. The right is prepared to suffer economically for Trump we need to let them suffer while we put our energy into a takeover.

SOS!! SAVE our National Parks! @altnps.bsky.social #Resistance✊🏻💙

Park Cuts for 1% Tax Cuts National Parks are a treasure. A place to relax. A refresher. Trump likes rich guys, not lakes. So DOGE cut funding. The snakes!

Excellent!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Be sure to use this altNationalParks (who I tag for some reason🤷🏼‍♀️)

$30 million was the number in 2021. I really think we need to cite sources when we throw up things like this. And facebook isn't a source. www.nps.gov/yose/learn/m...

See Sanders, Bernie!

SCOTUS made trump king, and as king there are no laws he must follow. SCOTUS made SCOTUS irrelevant. The military is now being run by trump cultists and loyalists to him, not the Constitution. Repubs are cowards and dems asleep at the wheel. CSNY Four dead in OH will be the norm...

We need to take a deep breath, take off the gloves and Get In The Way.

The New Deal did one thing more than it did anything, else. It put people to work. Reaganomics in the form of privatization took 13 US billionaires & just shy of a trillion dollar National Debt & 45 years later 800 US billionaires & a 36 trillion dollar National Debt. What makes more sense to you!

60 minutes covered this as well. I don’t think you have to worry about the Supreme Court, I’m pretty sure the coup started before Trump was in office.. if misinformation can be used for evil, maybe we could use it for good.

Thanks George for telling it like it is.

Today I canceled morning Joe. His 10 minute self praise reminded me too much of Trump. Narcissist.

Who will enforce the law?

We need leadership to unite all who oppose maga, left, center and right. We can unite and fight to restore our government and constitution.

We need the magas to move the needle tbh.

Luigis rise UP!!

Not until Americans are homeless, hungry, and their children dying of curable diseases, will they understand that they've lost their country to a madman.

Thanks for saying it.

Exactly! It’s gonna take a whole lot more than disgruntled Dems to pull this off.

Most Americans are already too dumbed-down and brain-dead to care or do anything to fight what's happening to them. That was the plan all along, of course. Just give them a steady diet of junk food and reality tv, and they'll obey.

People aren’t dumbed down. They have been systematically smashed. I would be shouting to the rafters about this, but “The Man” has such tight control over me that I can’t spare the time or take any risk. If people like me get to “nothing left to lose”, LOOK THE FUCK OUT!

I agree about people being smashed, but Americans are still being dumbed-down. There are quotations galore about how easily controlled the unintelligent are, and Agent Orange bragged about how much he loves the uneducated. George Carlin spelled it all out beautifully: youtu.be/KLODGhEyLvk?...

He’s not wrong. Fine, my fellow citizens are really dumb. But the education system has sucked for a generation, so here we are!

And that’s key, it only works if republicans are part of the solution. But they’re not, so what options are there?

Does anyone really believe he will just walk away in 4 years? He is setting things in place to just carry on, I doubt America will even have elections in 4 years, he said it himself. He's rigging the justice system, army infact everything to do his bidding. Who will stop him then?!

It is my greatest fear.

He absolutely 💯 will not leave. He's setting up the path now.

Real republicans should start a new party.

Those of us in the DMV stand ready and informed. We are not Ostriches or the "uneducated" that Trump Daddy loves so dearly. The question is, is the mayor of DC ready for us when we take to the streets and shut it all down?

Yessssss!

ATM, he's a dictator. Violating a SC Order will just be the coup de grace. MOC need to feel pressure from voters Mass protests And, if none that works, we accept it, or remove him.

You’re right George. You’ve been right all along. Seriously, where is kelly at in all of this now?

Ignore court orders. Then, the people will ignore Trump's orders too. Chaos.

Burn It Down Then rebuild better

Fight Club said it best. youtu.be/LJ4k07cuvf4?...

Was this recorded or live streamed?

I’ve been saying that same idea for a couple of weeks now I think it makes sense Trump’s economy/single issue voters need to be turned You’ll never turn the rank in file MAGA And the way you turn people is that you let his administration fail So buckle up It’s gonna be rough for a month or two

Down tools. Massive strikes & work to rule is needed. The economy will crumble fast and so will Trump & his sycophants. MAGA needs to feel real pain in the short term.

Unions are under threat. The Internationals should be coordinating and acting as one. Are they like the Churches? Don’t want to offend part of their membership?

I doubt people will do that. Watch the Coer d'Alene video. They just film with their cameras now. Bystanders is what America has become. Bystanders that do nothing.

There has to be a critical point where people realise that they can't just sit back and observe. Doing nothing changes nothing.

I'm sure the Germans thought the same way you see how that ended up

Somebody has to say it out loud: people need to riot. Fascists don't care about courts. They need to get hurt physically. They need to get shot. Say it how it is. Time to rise up. Helo?!

Remember when Trump said "...you won't have to vote again..." & Maddow discovered the gang of fascists had planted electoral employees throughout the US. 8 had been identified by late October. Point is, Repubs can't believe they'll ever get elected again. I'm thinking the worst-As we all should be.

If anyone thinks for 1 hot second Tangerlini won't use a weaponized military against American citizens rallying in the streets, think again. That's exactly why there's an orange-assed ass kisser at the helm.

www.yahoo.com/news/cant-yo...

SCOTUS declared a sitting POTUS is omnipotent and untouchable. They ignored the 14th Amendment. They denied states independent election rights. Trump Musk and their fucking Fascist Republican Klan will burn our Democracy to the ground. Sounds like Tyranny. Isn't there an Ammendment for that?

Do I hear a Second?

Hear Hear!

USA Capitol Switchboard (202) 224-3121 #Bluestormrising #5calls

Don’t get your hopes up waiting for republicans. We can barely count on the leftists to do the right thing

This is why he put unqualified, corrupted loyalists in positions of authority. There's no one to drag him out of the oval office and throw his fat ass in jail. This is what the takeover is all about. This is why the legislative branch failed miserably in its duty when it confirmed these losers.

Send this to every Republican in office. Trump will not follow the law. When has he ever?! He is a master con man, cult leader narcissistic sociopath patholigical liar, sexual predator, business fraud, etc. Facts!

Bring it on ! I love a good protest in the morning

And he’s not leaving the White House in 4 years this administration will end with violence and hopefully it will end

When are we going to hear from the Patel FBI/ATF on their investigation of the bomb threat

Somebody needs to organize these protests. I want to protest this. Where do I go? Out in the streets? Which street?

You're right and you're a rockstar.

When there is part of the political party that is not bound by logic or law why bother following any of it. Trumps been told he’s above the law. It’s going to happen. And when it does he’s going to realize he didn’t need any of them. That’s the end game.

The protests need to be in front of our Congressional local offices demanding they do an in person town hall .

Please keep up the good work! We need to know what we can legally do to help.

If I ignore court orders, they will issue a bench warrant and come arrest me. Why are we not arresting D&D (Donald&Doge)? Where are the bench warrants?

As MSNBC and CNN go right, we need a new cable news network. Newsmax and News Nation are fairly recent. Newsmax seems more MAGA than Fox. Why can’t some billionaires start a new channel up that will report the reality of the current administration?

People are already in the streets. How is that going to make Trump & Musk stop breaking the law? Let's face it, we need to start playing the game, show them what it feels like when people turn the tables on them. We need to take back the power.

You are totally correct ! 🇨🇦

How come our vaunted leaders cling to their beliefs despite all evidence to the contrary, and why is there no plan?

It just can’t be us though…all of you need to join us in the streets!

For sure. He doesn't give a shit about the law. Never has and never will.

My son, who clerks for a state Supreme Court Justice, says they have the power to freeze bank accounts. If that is true, seems like that might be a bit of a hammer?

For this to work? We need to impeach Donald Trump for a third time. Then, we need a third term for Barack Obama and a co-president in Kamala Harris, since Trump and Musk (their names alone kill me) have created new rules they've forced on the general public. We really can't continue the absurdity.

They don’t care about the law though. He won’t leave. Not even if the Supreme Court wants him out. Something far more drastic has to happen.

I couldn't agree more. I fear that something very dangerous will, but to the wrong people. Already, they're threatening with pipe bombs the best of the best in law and government who are no longer serving us. These are his J6 thugs, among the worst criminals.

It’s really horrifying. And how quickly this dismantling of our democracy is happening.

It makes me so sad. 😞💔

It’s terribly depressing, and overwhelming, and that’s exactly how they want us to feel and be. F*CK THAT!

And enraged. I'm trying to spend less time being enraged, more time enjoying my blessings. I can certainly do my part locally, but will take the advice of the caring folks here with whom I've engaged that I don't know personally, but for me? Step back. Breathe. Pics of animals. Nature. Blessings! 🤗

Here are some nice pics of animals for you. Feel better. It not only feels better, it is functional. Better plans of action come from calmer minds. Be well.

I'm TRYING ...

Any system that allowed all of this is catastrophically broken

Thank you George!!! 💗🙌💗 Namby Pamby “here’s how the system should work” talk is useless The system already failed The courts failed The congress and senate failed when they didn’t impeach for Jan 6 Republicans failed when they let him run again The system failed - it’s time to do something more

💯

Patel's and Bongino's gestapo will put down any resistance, and if needed, Hegseth's military will be unleashed on Americans at home.

Protesting and Town Hall screaming s right. Trump's numbers are sinking, even within the Republican party. So, some of this has to ride because it has to hit home to voters. Midterms are coming, the ONLY way the Senate will flip is if voters get pissed. Don't piss them off. Let them get pissed.

The Democrats need to work with the moderate Republicans and file impeachment papers. And we need a group of law enforcement who actually will abide by their oath and protect us as America not the president because they work for us!

Conservatives are not going to push back on anything - let's stop expecting any decency or sanity

Exactly! I have imagined J D Vance as an Elizabethan in full mufti as a court conspirator, conspiring to, you know... Especially since Trump has said he will not support him after the mid-terms in a presidential run.

Thankyou! If Europe or Canada could at least charge Musk and extradite him, that would help. ALL PRESSURE needs to go the 3 House Races and the 7-8 semi-sane GOP senators. We need to stop skirting the issue that this election was indeed STOLEN, call it out and dissolve their mandate! And PROTEST!!!

Thank you, George, for being that voice in the conservative movement against Trump, just speaking plain truths. If we don’t come to terms with who this man is, we are not going to get through this. We have to meet this moment not hope for the best, or our democracy will not survive.

Hasn't he really already violated court orders?

This still feels like it relies on shame to be effective, and to date we have seen no capacity for that, either on his part or on the part of a completely subservient Congress.

I am not hopeful that conservatives & repubs will be in the streets. I hope I’m wrong.

If they have the courage. You are talking about a group that has no empathy for mankind. They just care about themselves. That Is The Problem

I’m so proud of you guys ❤️🤍💙

It’s the only thing that’s going to work. It’s up to us

If we really want to restore democracy in our country, fight!! Mere hope is insufficient. Hope is deceptives expectations.

The problem is, most people still thinking inside the norms, while Musk and Trump and their cronies don't even understand what the norms are...

Organizing a second protest in red Florida. It’s easy don’t worry about size it will grow once you plant the seed. Flood the phone lines.

Thank you for really raising this alarm. Not sure who the woman next to you is, but her response shows that she’s not really connecting with the reality that faces us. The number in a SCOTUS majority opinion will not matter to Trump

And just why AREN’T we in the streets?!

I’m not making myself a target. Repubs can go in the streets. They broke it.

the american people need someone to LEAD the resistance. someone that can organize and help pay for travel - just like the republicans had help on jan 6

fiftyfifty.one

We’re preparing to be caught flat-footed again.

Something enlightening that I read: like Trump, Hitler came to power legally, in a democracy, and he did not defy any courts to take dictatorial control of Germany. The coup is in process.

These brave speakers stood strong despite a real bomb threat to deliver their message. If they won’t back down, neither should we. The time to act is now before things get even worse. The window of opportunity is slamming shut. Will we seize it or stand by and watch? www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFhu...

George is right.

People need to answer their phones from spam calls to see if it’s a political survey and tank it.

I reread The Conservative Mind over the weekend to make sure I was not crazy. Folks, MAGA are the Jacobins now. If you truly believe in the bedrock values of the conservative ethos, run away from Trump like your life depends on it.

It’s going to have to be Congress that steps up and impeaches him.

What are the regime's pressure points? Mass protests? The 1%? (If they experience loss of wealth through mass boycotts can they influence the regime?) Congress? (If they issued impeachments/convictions 🙄 would they be obeyed?) ...? *We* need to understand the options and possible outcomes.

Not just thousands of us but millions of us. Not just for one day, but every day.

ABSTAINED ....to end the war

Following orders from the President’s boss I guess

He isn't going to follow any orders from the SUpreme Court...because, he truly wants to be KING!!

When he defies court orders do what real countries do, arrest him. I am so sick of Americans treating their president like a God.

Who is going to arrest him when the DOJ now answers to him?

Like I said, stop treating him like a God. In Canada the RCMP would just arrest him. Your penchant for politicizing everything has ruined your legal system.

People need to call in sick to their jobs en masse. If the economy comes to a halt it's going to make much more of an impact to his plans. Also, every single person who would protest needs to stay off Twitter and cancel their accounts.

DT with his brown nosing & boot licking sycophants in the Pentagon may try to activate the military for protests. Be prepared.

Yes! Early on, moderate Republicans expected politics as usual and looked on from the sidelines to see what the Democrats would do. NOW is the time for the Repulican Opposition to join the fight. Together, our national nightmare will end quickly.

This is not just about unelected individuals taking the risks. The people in power must use that power to the fullest extent & then some

hard pass on this grifter nonsense. if you want change and to help Americans, vote Democratic. these grifters are just waiting out the fascists so they can skin the rest of us in a kinder, gentler way.

If South Korea could do it, so can Americans. apnews.com/article/sout...

I suggest we just transition to filling the streets and preparing for armed rebellion right away

You know how they say “don’t talk to police”? You, in particular, should not talk to police.

Excellent conference. We need more of these to get the public mobilized.

It needs to be Republicans.. otherwise it’s just fuel for MAGA.

I think it is inevitable at this point; once it gets warmer. In the meantime, I’d like to see more organizing on WHAT we’re going to protest. Trump has SUCCESSFULLY flooded the zone. So we must pick. I suggest we focus on things that DIRECTLY impact ordinary Americans.

This is a crisis. Thanks to the failure of AG GARLAND to act when he had full responsibility and opportunity to do so. There is no choice. SCOTUS will not order him to do ANYTHING. NOT THAT IT WOULD HELP.

The People literally need to scare the shit out of them. They are already entrenched in our systems, governments and communities. There is going to be blood in the streets, every day every new appointment is another foot solder loyal only to them and they are gearing up for Martial Law. Guillotines

Hasn't ANYONE thought abt this? It's been MONTHS of knowing & a solid month of proving Trump will actively destroy us. All the democratic left does is STAMMER & scratch their heads. THANK GOD for the handful of thinkers...Elias/Sanders/Warren/Murphy/Raskin...& JUDGES, ACTIVELY working to end this.

Sometimes when someone is determined to destroy themselves, you don’t get in the way.

He bought the Supreme Court jesters,we the people have to remove him,then exile him and his whore elonia

We all need to be in the streets demanding Congress fulfill their oaths to defend the Constitution. #50501 March 4th for Freedom.

I'm frightened that the people who march in the streets will be met by Proud Boy led militia and military that doesn't know the difference between legal and illegal orders.

I’m thinking this kind of energy is needed again.

I'm not saying don't march just be prepared.

Military firing on civilians in the streets is the typical standard for most coups. This is why the current military purge is so vital to Trump

55 years ago this coming May: The Kent State shootings occurred on May 4, 1970, when the Ohio National Guard shot and killed four students and wounded nine others at Kent State University. The event was part of an anti-Vietnam War protest.

Unfortunately where we currently stand it might be the military shooting Americans that is necessary for people to wake up.

Military still has really good people. Counting on them defending the constitution when they are giving an order that goes against it.

Evil wins when good men do nothing. I hope the good people in the military stand up.

Me too.

Front line officers and NCOs are not constitution experts and can't be expected to always accurately judge legal vs illegal in the heat of the moment. Can be difficult and nuanced even for senior and flag ofcrs, as Milley found out. And trump just fired the top JAGS so there go the advisors.

Terrifying to say the least but I’m going to hold out some hope while I buckle up cor turbulence. It’s all really scary.

I was days away from graduating HS when Kent State occurred. We are far more divided and dysfunctional now than we were then.

No one, not even the military, has to follow unlawful orders. Do not ever comply in advance.

Superior officers are being replaced by Trump loyalists who will order compliance with illegal orders. JAG members who would defend a soldier not complying with an illegal order are being fired so there's no one to protect a soldier who is trying to protect the Constitution.

I totally agree with you. I also have a feeling we are being pushed to public physical confrontation in order for him to order people to he shot and declare martial law. We need to do someone but we must be very careful.

*to be shot

Fear is how they win. It’s what they want. Don’t allow them that. Know your rights

Liberals own guns, too.

Gotta make a decision, peaceful protest like Ghandi, or fight fire with fire. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I'm just asking the question.

Peaceful protests are effective when there is a civilized gov't being protested. Ghandi, MLK, would have been killed immediately by the Nazis. I'm not saying that would happen here, but fact is we don't know how it will play out with trump loyalists in charge of military and police.

In Florida, DeathSantis has taken our civil rights from us. Groups of three people or more can be arrested on sight for 'intent to riot', and if you're in the streets, cars can run you over with zero liability. We can't protest here without extreme risk of injury or death.

So spring break is now a riot?

You must have missed all the arrests in the past few years during Spring Break. In a lot of areas, there are no beaches to go to after Helene and Milton. Because the GOP has developed every sq inch of land for profit and destroyed our natural protections. The beaches in my area are still devastated.

Yup, I missed that. Sigh. Decline in all directions.

Can't arrest you all.

We can't keep fighting if we're all dead or in jail.

Not long ago Florida was a purple state, I guess you have to fight smarter. The support is there. Don't ask me how. I don't understand why you voted in Pudding Fingers in the 1st place.

I have never voted for a Republican in my life and never will, and I have been voting in this state for over 20 years.

Florida is an occupied state due to 20+ years of GOP gerrymandering and voter suppression. They can only win by cheating, and they have been doing it for decades.

You weren't here for the George Floyd protests that got these laws put in place. They will try, and those they can aren't they will kill.

Forget the Proud Boys, Trump is trying to turn the military into his personal fighting force

I wouldn't turn my back on the Proud Boys, there are some things the military won't do.

💯

We have problems everywhere.

First republicans would have to grow a spine. They have to stop thinking about their paychecks and consider the possibly that they could lose their seat in Congress. Only if they’re willing to take the risk of trading their position for democracy we have a chance that they’d side with democrats.

Don't you realize certain people will never accept they were wrong? Nothing you say or do nothing that happens . Most of them don't understand reality don't accept facts and live in delusion. And republicans accept Trump because he is great attention grabber. They can do whatever they want while

You have to fight against selfish self-centered rich clowns that you gave power and control. If trump disappears MAGA will change name and leaders. Those people don't change they don't learn. Republican party was always the same. You forgot how they publicly talked

About how they ALLOW non Christian to keep their religion ? That mostly man that are republican conservative want to decide about woman rights and body? That mostly republican white conservative people want to decide anything that concerns other races and minority?

That the same republican hetero religious conservatives talk about sexuality gender and preference ? Trans people are creepy ? But talking about marriage and consent age being at 12 or how underage victims are guilty is okay?

Sometimes i feel like i live in some broken simulation made by some amateur IT guy. Don't you realize the loudest most obnoxious the most aggressive people are the one heard and have the most power. The curent situation is the way it is

Because most normal people are idle not active while idiots like MAGA are loud and active

So it won’t work. Republicans WANT this.

These courts need to recognize the lack of respect for the law and start ruling accordingly. They’ve show it repeatedly. Contempt of court and congress.

Sure, but what have the courts done so far? Precious little, aside from convicting him. Why isn't he in jail? Has he paid all those huge fines levied against him?

My question is why hasn’t he pardoned himself if it’s possible? I would have put him on probation for four years. But you’re right, they’ve done Ffff all.

You are!
