    In response, Democrats have claimed that Trump is sending the country into a constitutional crisis.

    Fucking Jesus the constitutional crisis has been here for almost two months already. Great job Dems on underselling the seriousness of this.

    The crisis is here and has been ongoing. Saying he is just sending us into it now is pussy shit.

      The only parts of the Constitution they pretend to care about are the first and second amendment and only when it serves their interests. The rest is basically just toilet paper to them.

      What they’re teaching is self sufficiency. When that self sufficiency is realized we will have a real revolution with mortal consequences. There are more of us than them. We are smarter than them. And we are angrier than they think. If the DNC wont play ball with the true will of the people, it will be a bigger problem for them than us.

          Let them come to us. We gain nothing by catering to them. Ask Harris if you don’t believe me.

            Oh I’m not advocating for anything right now. But it might be an interesting time to tune into the main show on TYT and see how those turncloaks are handling this.

            Anything that can cleave off or create factions weakens them.

      Meanwhile we’ve got ~respectable moderates~ like Quisling Schumer popping a semi at the mere thought of bombing Iran

      They’re complaining about it because one of these times they might have to actually do something.

    The only qualification Trump wanted of Hegseth for the job was a willingness to use the American military against American citizens on American soil. Hegseth wrote a book advocating for this.

      I’m also 100% convinced the story about Kristy Noem shooting her puppy is what got her the job. That screams callous and heartless which is exactly the qualification Trump would want…

    Saying flat-out that the only court they will acknowledge is the Supreme Court. Gee, I wonder why that might be.

      I would have settled for the 5th circuit, just like they’ve done 90% of the time. Bold claim, even for Nazis

    The courts have to start finding these people in contempt and deputizing people to go enforce those orders on behalf of the court if law enforcement won’t. The House won’t exercise its duty to be a check on the President. The Senate has barely made a few weak gestures. All that’s left are the courts. Well, and We The People.

      They confirmed RFK Jr for Health, Tulsi Gabbard for Intelligence, Kash Patel for the FBI. They’d confirm a dried out turd given the chance.

    Are you daft? You know very fucking well he would straight up disobey on the guarantee of a pardon from Mafia Don Mangolini.

    Why wouldn’t he disobey? There have been literally no consequences for Trump or any of his sycophants.
