Can we please stop talking about "the Nation" ? There is no Nation. There is only good v. literal evil incarnate. Ostracize all Republicans. Mother-father-sister-brother-son-daughter-relatives-neighbors-associates. If they are Republicans they are evil. Cut them off forever without a word.

Arm Up

The rubicon is 4,000 miles behind you, America!

It’s too late …….😢

And patience.

The truth is everyone sees him that way. It's just that some of us want to remove him for it, others want to profit off of it.

True story!

Well Mr Tribe, you show us the fucking lever to pull and we will pull it. Alot of us are way past being horrified and disgusted. Give us jobs to do and we will do them. Spoiler alert though, writing letters and calling out representatives is not an answer we will accept.

I think the USA needs another Revolution. Trump is worse than King George was (I’m not even joking here), so I really think it’s up to the American people. How you do it, I don’t know, maybe a National work strike, a 10 million person march on DC, whatever it takes. 🤔

It might just be the Radical Acceptance talking, but "the Revolution®" is here, now. The good guys just aren't the ones that started it. One party is a Roid and Jesus fueled parody of itself, one is flatfooted and verklemlpt. That's why these days I'm all "ok what the fuck do we all do about it"

It's worth thinking about to me that it took "them" 7 years to go from Obama's election to Yamtits coming down the escalator. I know we're smarter we have to do the same thing in half the time or faster.

I see some Dems in the fight (not the leadership, which is an issue) but there are quite a few pushing back. But there’s only so much they can do when they hold neither the Presidency, the Senate or the House. A few sellouts need to be taken out in Primary’s..that’s up to the Voters.

So I'm not saying I am and I'm not saying I'm not, but let's say it's a lot easier and faster than I thought to ride the Protestor > Activist > helping prepare Progressive messaging to the Local DNC to advance the cause.

But you can't do it from the couch. Go to the protests, find the leadership, tell them you care and you have the time and demonstrate the ability. Be at the meetings. This is every part a "build it and they will come" situation. All these groups need bodies and professional abilities.. Go help them

I can’t help, I’m not American, just putting up my observations & opinions, but I agree.

Ah yea Belfast. Well then you definitely know what I'm trying to avoid yea? Well then shit Comradai tell them to keep us in their thoughts and we'll promise to carry the torch till we can't hold it up anymore

I thought, since so many current, retired, fired & threatened exist who have sworn an oath to the Constitution, who also have real expertise--pols, military leaders, special forces, spies, etc--that a for-real shadow govt & armed force in defense of same would be well underway by now, even visible.

This has been rattling around on my brain too tbh.

And therein lies the problem. I honestly believe that the majority of Americans are decent, law abiding people who have been badly let down by the Trump admin. I hope the '26 elections are a turning point.

Well lemme give you some hope and remind myself on days like these. The city I live in, Mentor Ohio (47k residents) is locally known to be one of the more snooty white bread exurbs of Cleveland. But on No Kings day we had 3500 protestors on the street. 7.4% or more than double the magic 3.5%

Thank you for the information. I wish you all well ❤️

Eventually all of the people in America will have to march in the streets!

Too late. He just took over DC.

These 'leaders' keep drawing lines in the sand and when t^ump crosses a line, they just back up and draw another line. Soon, they will run out of beach.

No more straws! Set fire to any lasting straws! Open all eyes to their widest, see the truth, ACT - in whatever way you can. - until America is free to be ethical and moral again.

It should have stopped 500 straws ago.

bsky.app/profile/umai...

Trump is out of "last straws!"

there are other are trump-like lying psychotic narcissist sociopaths. The true threat to the nation, democracy,& decency is the republican voter and the republican-controlled corporate media, going back decades. So many have been sleepwalking the decades-old republican coup

When congress is a majority of greedy amoral cowards there is literally no legal way to get rid of a sitting - or in this case shitting - president

And even if the Republicans weren't in the majority... the SCOTUS has granted Mr. Trump immunity. Nothing can happen to him unless Brutus Vance gets his hands on a dagger (sarcasm off).

Agreed. We have lost all straws.

Seems we’ve been saying that for years

Take a moment think about this…Your mom your dad YOU your kids after YOUR DEAD a grandchild AFTER YOUR DEAD!! Will now all be affected by The Felon of 34 vile play on USA! If you can’t see his evilness then you deserve it all upon you!! Still don’t agree ok just wait!!!

We should have ran out of straws Jan 20!

The straws broke the camel’s back!

As long as the Republicans in Congress feel like he holds the power, they’ll stay with him. All but the most cultish already know he’s demented. They just don’t care.

thehill.com/opinion/camp...

Shit, or get off the pot!

None. Why? Because you can’t fix stupid, which is the real issue in the states.

They are with him till the end. Easier to believe the lies than you were a fool.

There is NO LAST STRAW as long as the criminal and his sycophants can make money destroying our country!!!

But hey, look on the bright side - they're not those flimsy paper straws!

😒🤷

MAGA has a limitless capacity for bullshit, specially when it serves them and their white christian national supremacy.

Larry Tribe is a douche pump.

Is the Republican clown car landing on President Pedophile? KARMA?

Oops

One can hope . . .

My redline came when he was president the first time. I don’t know what everyone else is waiting on. He was an asshole then and he’s a bigger more dangerous asshole now.

For the record I saw Trump as a Clear And Present Danger to US when he walked down that stupid golden escalator over a decade ago! WHERE YOU IDIOTS BEEN THIS WHOLE TIME!?!?!

He’s a tool of 2025. The bargain is he gets a large share of the spoils and REVENGE!

Every day there are fewer and fewer. Plus it seems like every day there is a very unsettling new thing to cause stress for all of us! Like National Guard and FBI patrolling Washington DC and maybe NYC?????

It’s like 20 a day if you are really paying attention. Dems just sit on their hands and talk about law, like that matters. We need a military coup right now

The military? You mean the military that is headed by a drunk, racist, misogynistic, incompetent, trump ass kissing idiot who is in the process undermining the effectiveness of said military? There are also plenty of military who are trumpers. We can’t count on a military coup.

Our military cannot possibly respect that drunk, racist, misogynistic, incompetent, trump ass kissing idiot. Our generals could do it and take Hegseth with the rest of this admin

Hasn’t he fired all the generals who aren’t trumpers? The military may not respect the drunk guy but there are plenty of them who are trump supporters so I doubt there would be a coup. Would I love to see one? Absolutely.

So we are doomed in your opinion? There are definitely more of us than them, and if not, I’m in the wrong country. Got any suggestions?

I’m sorry I’m being so pessimistic but trump has got every department under his rule and even the Supreme Court is corrupted in his favor. He’s got the Congress and Senate. Red states are working to suppress votes midterms are gonna be tough to win. And let’s face it the dems in government aren’t /

I get it. It’s really hard to be positive especially when our Dems are sitting on their hands wishing us good luck

fighting dirty or tough enough. I have no suggestions. Sure we can protest, which is being done, but for what? Read about John Roberts and how he has made all of this possible. Without the courts, which are being ignored if they don’t rule the way trump wants, what is there?

I’m not willing to do nothing and watch that pig destroy our country

I understand. I have called and written to my rep and senators. Nothing. But I live in TX. The government here in addition to being corrupt, doesn’t give a shit about their constituents, particularly if they’re not republicans. BTW, please don’t insult the pigs.

We are OUT of straws

It’s time to get rid of them all.

I'm wondering that myself.

I've learned from my own family Republicans that they don't care about anything until it hurts their wallet.

I believe more than half the country is saying the same thing. The Bushes were disasters but Chump got them beat by 10 fold.

My last straw was reached when he sent troops into LA. We're beyond strikes and economic freezes, boycotts and strongly worded letters. I can't act alone. I'm waiting for America to remember what it means to be a patriot bcuz the time for talk has passed the time for good trouble is over.

I’ve been asking that same question since 2016.

Really it just makes you a decent human being

The problem is that Republicans either don't care or are too scared to act. 🤷‍♂️

Some people will never see it. They REFUSE to see it.

first straw 2016 was when we should have stopped it 5 million rallied round world via WOMAN'S MARCH JAN 2017 day after fraud was allowed - somehow - to be in that seat IT WAS RIGGED still waiting on MEN TO ORGANIZE SOMETHING!! ANTI - ICE = HEAT

Home of the brave has become home of: Is he, will he, can he, he did, but he can’t, well he did, well that can happen, but it is, oh no we have safe guards, but they being stepped on and crushed, but surely he won’t and yet again, he just did! seem THE BRACE these days .. watch from the side lines.

That's been my questions for the judges of America who dither, equivocate, delay, appease and excuse Trumps behavior. Case in point is him as a candidate violating 12 gag orders in NY putting the judge, the judges daughter and jurors in danger. Every lawyer said anyone else would have been jailed.

And Congress, the Senate, and SCOTUS applaud.

“Google, is straw flammable?”

Great question

... Franklin Graham is the big fucking straw that will not be removed nor broken ...

Given the fact that most of us are already there, I tend to wonder what they're euphemistically calling for. Don't get me wrong, I'm down for it.

The constitutional crisis is here...Let's do something!!!

I think this is something the GOP has been experimenting with for a while now. With the US population stressed out by way of corporate overwork it leaves then with little time, energy, or emotional resolve to do anything about egregious actions. So they have learned the US can't be bothered.

Tell that to THE SUPREME COURT who turned over our nation to a demented tyrant!

..& now the United States as supporter, funder, condoner, denier & so equally responsible for & guilty of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes & lying cunt of a country. Let's stop pussy-footing round the lying shit coward Trump, pretending only Israel is guilty of massacring women & kids.

When a serial mugger is caught and his crimes are known, even if he's not jailed, we don't just let him keep mugging. ARREST DONALD TRUMP NOW! Congress, use your inherent power. Oversight is your DUTY. That--along with your OATH to defend the Constitution--implies Inherent Power. WANTED

You tell ‘em Mr. Tribe. Problem is, half the people are as demented, dysfunctional and ignorant as Trump

Correction . . we ran out of straws but somehow this idiot just keeps going with no brakes on the stupidity. Can you imagine what he's going to get up to with Putin?

I hope he lives long to see the USA revolt and take down this toxic capitalism

Reign of Terror

I stand with Borowitz and Ukraine on this. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Right

Russia can have Alaska

LOL

it appears that 33% of our nation is determined to drink the koolaid to get to heaven

Hate and racism is just too appealing to a massive swath of Murica.

bsky.app/profile/af68...

How is this an answer to the fact that hatred and racism is so rampant that over 70 million people in the US decided to vote for blatant racism and hatred. Yes crime is up in the Whitehouse anyone with an iq at 100 and above can see it, but there is still a large block of Americans that are

Anyone with an IQ of 100 excludes Trump voters

bsky.app/profile/af68...

This is what it’s all about, he takes what he wants and then is pissed to be held accountable. He think he deserves to take what he wants and believes all men deserve it too. Because women are here for men 🤦🏼‍♀️ as their single purpose

It is such a fucked take on life too, women are amazing beings with generally way more empathy for others than many men. Glad my father broke the cycle and left the Mennonite church, my cousins are so brainwashed that I can't even visit my female cousins in the kitchen because men don't belong there

and it makes them uncomfortable when I go in there, meanwhile most of my cousins are female and I would rather visit them than their husbands whom I have almost nothing in common with.

Wow, you have a very interesting perspective given your upbringing. I cannot imagine it. I am so grateful to my dad that told us we could be whatever we set our minds too. He celebrated every promotion of all 5 kids and never did we hear that men and women had places other than head of any table

My wife and I are equals in our marriage, things are discussed and we decide jointly on how to deal with life. I wouldn't want it any other way because both of us have strengths the other doesn't and together we make a whole.

horrible people to want all this for their neighbours and that is hard pass for many (should be everyone) and if I was a citizen of the states I'd be outside yelling and screaming. Don't go to work, don't be complicit, the way this is going you will lose everything eventually so even if you lose..

your house protesting because you can't make the mortgage.....well its going to be gone anyways if the oligarchy in the US has their way and they are getting what they want right now.

Please people listen to this brilliant man! Thanks for the post.

He might want to ask the 6 supreme corrupt traitors that gave that 34 convicted felon/insurrectionist presidential immunity. That Overlard Toddler isn't suppose to be president which makes him and those he appointed illegitimate.

House of reps/GOP.WHY is he still allowed to run this country? Because you are as demented as your cult leader!!

You need to nail his sycophantic enablers

Ask John Thune

A nation in a nosedive speeding up to hell. Unstoppable.

I would say it was past time when he walked in the door!

It's not that people in the states can't see it its more that they can't do anything about it because no one wants to be the the first one killed to end this.

OMG I miss Raving Rabbids!

This should have been it. But here we are. There's an abundance of hate in the U.S.A. that is driving everything. Tens of millions of Americans are hateful and hate filled cunts that see Trump as a messiah.

Agreed. All of US should have rejected Trump en masse when he made fun of a smart guy w/a disability. Trump was clearly stupid & uncouth. Those who laughed instead of being appalled are the same ones who have been backing Trump all this time. Not very "Christian" huh? Hypocrites.

This is the big question: When are people going to take seriously the threat he poses to our constitutional republic? I think people are either blind or in denial about the scale of the threat.

Honestly? He could take a dump on the flag and wipe with the Constitution and his cult would still be, 'Hell yeah! MAGA!" 😕

During the 1st term I remember Tribe shushing us for “overreacting”. If I’m not mistaken he also thought Garland would do his job while we were calling foul within 6 mths . NOW these experts are lecturing the people? I hate to break it to him but he’s one of those PEOPLE. Yes, I’m angry & bitter!

His followers worship him and will never abandon him

He's part of the GOP - apparently there are as many straws as there is money to put into fighting a war against US citizens and gilding the fucking white house. If he were a Democrat (which he himself said are smarter) he'd have been in jail in 2015

There are not any last straws. The die has been cast. You are either normal or a fucking moron Trump supporter. None of them are ever going to normal again. The only hope is getting the people who never vote to kick Republicans out of office! There is nothing Trump could do to change anyone's mind.

As long as they keep cheating it will never end.

Very shortly, Canada will be taking on much of the Role that U.S.A previously performed as a Democratic Republic. Canada will become more prominent as the Stable North American Government - in lieu of the US Autocracy under the Federalist Society & The Pedocracy of Trump.

We MUST wait for midterms, to gauge how cemented his position is, currently! Yes, we need to act, but timings the thing and we don't want to waste the resources they are stealing from us, by acting without a plan if you know what I mean.

Exactly.

Most of us have known this for years, only the terminally stupid don’t understand this, and believe me, I do wish stupidity was a terminal illness. This country would be a lot smarter.

The next last straw for sure

Exactly…

I don't need a last straw..I have always known who and what he is. He's a Criminal and a Monster.

Martial law coming to a city near you if we don’t stop this #PedoProtectorPOTUS

We see his maniacal actions What would you have us, the people, do about it?

Everyone who WILL see it without paying some personal consequence has seen it. For the rest, some have to pay a personal price. And for the remainder, their only response is, "Thank you, Dear Leader. May I have another?"

MAGAts have building their houses with straws for a long time. They’ve got lots of straws to spare.

I respect your opinion, Prof. Tribe and would like to know what you think we can do about this, given we are in an extraordinary time. Please send help ASAP

When it starts affecting more white people then the outrage from white supremacists will emerge. They will then truly see they don’t matter at all to those who have destroyed our democracy.

203 days, and I have no clue. Would have thought he would be taken out by now?

Who will lead the country out of this?

Trump wants to take the Planet with him.

As with everything MAGA, they just move the goalposts again.

. #OustYourObeseOrangeOligarch #WTFYouWaitingFor? .

Due to daft, clueless and incompetent Dems, if there was another election today, he still wins!! Sip on that!

Because this is not about Tr*mp. He'd be nowhere without the GOP confirming every clown and passing every law he wants. This is NOT a one-man-show.

Americans will not react until the screws are being tightened on their own thumbs

Why is Putin coming to our country.

Release the Epstein files

Very good question, what has it been, 5641 so far?

If the 5:30 local media and drive time radio doesn’t talk about him like that, it doesn’t exist. Have you heard mainstream media sanewash this guy? Obviously not.

I have no straws. I also have no use for talk that does not produce results. VOTE.

Half of the country thinks he’s great.

Even that is bullshit

Yeah? So how is he is doing whatever he wants? You already forgot he got elected by 75 million fascists?

The straws ran out a long-ass time ago. Straws at this point are stolen like everything else.

THE FASCIST SUPREME COURT HAS FINALLY DECIDED THAT DICTATOR TRUMP CAN REMOVE ALL PEOPLE HE DOESN'T WANT IN THIS COUNTRY. THE SUPREME COURT, THE DIRTY MAGA REPUBLICANS SITTING ON THE CURRENT COURT BENCH DOING NOTHING FOR FREEDOM. YOU MAGA JUSTICE LEACHES DO NOT DESERVE TO LIVE IN OUR FREE COUNTRY.

These 'leaders' keep drawing lines in the sand and when t^ump crosses a line, they just back up and draw another line. Soon, they will run out of beach.

Nothing the USA does cannot be done elsewhere. USA has just 350 Million people in a world of 8 billion. Sure it might take time but empires fall and the USA will be discarded unless it changes course.

There are no more straws. They pushed, the Dems we elected played nice and allowed them to steal our lives, civility and FUCKING TAX DOLLARS!

We ran out Jan 20.

Sheeple are epically stupid

Blew past last straws a long time ago .. where you been Mr Tribe?

YES PROFESSOR TRIBE

Thank you Professor Tribe!!

Trump had his minions storm the Capitol, why don't we the people storm the White House and drag him out?!

I would guess that is how most see him.

bsky.app/profile/af68...

I ask myself that question everyday. He continues to shock me everyday, today he is taking over DC. WOW. What next?

They knew all that. Made no difference.

Some will never see it. Because the GOP has spent nearly 50 years running psyops on the base to get us exactly here.

This is the result of the dumbing down of education that has been going on for decades. It is not a mistake. Easier to manipulate the undereducated. Have you spoken to a newly graduated person lately?

We all see this. Republicans see this, too, and they are okay with putting their ring of protection around him to ensure that his terror tantrum can run a full course.

They're still busy doing their research...

I ask that question every day. 😫

We need to start acting up now not later

Okay, look: Cantaloupe Caligula is a TOOL of an organization hellbent (pun intended) on making this country into a theocracy. One that has only the name in common with an actual religion. Yes, stop the Apricot Thundercunt, but while you pluck the weed, pull out the roots.

Trump is a traitor. Tell it like it is.

Good frickin question! I’m waiting! youtu.be/G1ZxoBk56jQ

Well, when it comes to the “personal” national pride of an American, he is unmatched in denying facts. Raised to believe in what Mr. Hitler once called the “master race,” they have to build mental castles against any from abroad thinking.

Democrats: What's a last straw?

MAGAts are blind and deaf so far.

And Epstein just because.

Mr. Tribe, we have to come up with action. No more talking. It's obvious long ago that the Republican party is a cult and gone off the deep end and actionable steps need to be taken to stop them in their tracks

You have to define what a straw is to some people in this country.

That is the 64 thousand dollars Question especially since his most recent briefing that only emphasized how unstable the wanta be genius is in which he does not have a firm grasp with reality

He sold more bibles than you. Religion always comes before politics

Professor Tribe: So many of us have stated this obvious *fact* since 2014. I am out of guesses why the masses don't see it and demand action. What do you suggest as a unifying "battle cry?"

Once again a diversion deploying troops to Washington, funny he didn’t have the balls to deploy troops on January 6, 2021. You traitor, release the Epstein files

But how many of you besides blaming chump are not blaming the people who are actually giving him this power. Every single MAGApublican, billionaire and the Heritage Foundation are doing this. Without them he would not be able to do anything. Get it together and get rid of them.

MADDOW HAS DECLARED WE R IN A DICTATORSHIP!Kevin Robert said “The Second Revolution CAN be BLOODLESS IF THE LEFT ALLOWS IT.”The last straw went blowing in the wind over 200 days ago.We just don’t want to talk about a civil war or a military coup. DEMOCRACY IS DEAD:HITLER IS HERE! Accept it or fight!

Damn good question! When nearly half the people in the country are blithering idiots believing anything that an obviously demented, narcissistic buffoon spouts from his cake hole, there are no last straws! The Republican Party is totally corrupted at this point, and Democrats remain mostly gutless!

Truth.

🎯🎯🎯😩😩😩

Well, when an entire political party namely the GOP has decided to toss out the U.S. Constitution and throw their support behind a fascistic pedophile it makes the task of throwing the traitor out on his ass a bit harder.

NO MORE STRAWS LEFT FOR THE GOLDEN TURD!

Sorry this was a person that kept saying not to panic until he ran out of excuses for SCOTUS’ behavior. You all owe everyone that sounded 5 alarm bells an apology.

As many as the MAGA Congress keeps handing him. They should’ve stopped him months ago. They’ve clearly come in on the side of their benefactors; OLIGARCHS WHO HAVE NEVER embraced the idea of Democracy, let alone its principles. They’ve been at war with it FROM THE BEGINNING.

bsky.app/profile/af68...

The media love Trump. He's big news, all the time. Scandal sells.

There are no last straws for cult members. For a decade now we've been using the phrase drank the kool-aid, using it glibly, while seemingly forgetting that those people were literally willing to die because a crazy man told them to.

Trumpies have no last straw. They must see themselves in trumps behavior, and approve.

Someone should wake up Laurence Tribe & remind him that his prized student, Merrick Garland is the sole reason we are now fighting fascism in this country. Tribe is a poser & clearly part of the problem in America, not part of a solution.

Word.

I don’t know but it’s not happening soon enough

This isn’t the generation of our parents. We are dealing with a new generation called whiners and cowards! It isn’t Trump alone who is destroying the Country! He has the help of its do nothing citizens!

Release the #TrumpsteinFiles

Some folks ran out of straws a long fucking time ago. Like when a reality TV personality they'd never heard of came down an escalator. It's weird how pearls are still being clutched. The fact they still are is evidence of itself; proof of why he's still there. Left and right deserve him.

Release the Trump/Epstein files

Nobody’s addressing the elephant in the room regarding Dementia Don!

1A 2A

the election was a while ago. i am starting to sense that the strong desire to cancel Trump is distracting people from opposing his unpopular policies. thought leaders need to get out there and propose better policy instead of waiting for him to make announcements then criticizing.

It’s not only Trump. I really don’t think he feels that strong about what he is doing other than retaliating against his foes. It’s this Project 2025 and its authors and enablers that need to be thrown in jail for treason.

I agree. I think they just give him these graphs and tell him what to say and do.

err - that did not work out too well for them the other day - holding up a chart of saying it was terrific or some other banal word he usually uses and then, after a pause and without any explanation of a nothing chart just says "ok?" Good job handlers - try getting someone with a brain

Who props him up besides his cultists & the corporate fixed news?

Too bad that's the general attitude of broadcast media. It's why they just go on as if this is normal, reporting with the sensationalist purpose of raking in $$ rather than disseminating Truth.

It won’t be good for CBS either.

Truth

Remember in "Billy Madison " when the judge says everyone in this room has been made dumber by listening to him. This is America today. Every time Trump or any in his administration open their mouth we become more dumb as a whole. They think we are so stupid!!!

Too many Americans--at least 45% of them--are frogs clinging unknowingly to the sides of a pot of water that is gradually heating up to cause their ultimate death. And they have little idea this is happening.

Trump has lowered the bar so much that there's no straws left.

You an Ludick blew it by being to nice.

We need to get him out of office NOW!

Listen to this man, likely the smartest man in america when it comes to democracy and the constitution

#Epstein

You're free people. What do you call an American with righteous freedom in one hand & a gun rightfully placed in the other, who refuses to stand & fight for his country, his family, his food, and his freedom, on his own soil and in his own house? Freedom isn't free. Revolution is the solution.

so start striking already !
