Let’s fix this. The president said, once again, he’s going to violate the law and turn it against his own people.

I am sure the guard has nothing better to do. No home life. No families. It's going to get really boring.

I’m not sure what “the law” even means right now

He's not wrong. Checks and balances are long gone. This convicted felon is free to roam and watch all his dementia fueled fantasies come true.

Who will be paying salaries after the 30 day mark? If extension isn't authorised neither is payment. Deep state woke accounting has rules.

How many days is he allowed to do this shit in California and everywhere else without Congressional or Gubernatorial approval or any legitimate reason? Oh, that’s right, none. And that is why what he is doing in DC is also illegal orders. The context matters!

President Felon 47 Trump says he can extend his unconstitutional military deployment of the National Guard in Washington, D.C. because: 1. A five-year-old can see he’s mentally unwell. 2. He’s been operating outside the Constitution and Rule of Law since at least his Inauguration on January 20. 1/

2/🧵 President Felon 47 said it does not make it legal or constitutional. It doesn't mean Americans should accept his illegality because the far-right, extra-MAGA, Supermajority on the Supreme Court led by Chief Justice John Roberts literally gave him a get-out-of-jail-free card last year.

The CONSTITUTION let Trump IN! @stringnoise.bsky.social

Congress will green light anything the monster wants to do. They'll do anything to avoid the fate of Liz Cheney. The idea is to get elected and then KEEP your 'seat' until you're so old you don't know where you are. My solution: ONE TERM for EVERYONE + MANDATORY RETIREMENT at age SIXTY-TWO.
