What the hell is going on in the Republican Party, are they choosing who can stay because of the amount of money they have, and no other condition apply? .
@WarnerCrocker maga is right about one thing - we're going to need guns to defend ourselves from the government. The Constitution, laws, and courts can't protect us.
@gpilz@pattykimura I think that's accurate, a law, like a contract, like a promise, like a pinky swear is only as good as those who agree to live up to the agreement.
@pattykimura@WarnerCrocker I think that we are all learning that "the law" is just words on paper if there isn't a large enough consensus to abide by the law. We've lost the cohesion necessary to maintain a civil society.
@gpilz@WarnerCrocker I'm just citing the law, dude. Four years ago, you probably assumed the FBI Director would never have ordered the arrest of a sitting judge based on "belief" and not "evidence", the required legal standard not met in Patel's deleted tweet declaring "We believe Judge Dugan intentionally..." It's likely why his idiotic public brag was quickly deleted by the legal handlers of that fatuous imbecile. Nothing is normal, anymore. What would happen and what can happen are no longer separated by guard rails.
I don't see how this country is going to overcome this mess without real actual bloody violence. It's the only thing dictators understand. I don't think the citizens have the will or the stomach for that. I know I don't, I'm an old man. Trump controls the military, he won't have any trouble putting down any rebellions that come up.
