    Remember when libs kept promising us the military would never use violence against the American people? Remember how they said if a tyrant became president the military would refuse orders to harm fellow Americans?

    God it would be funny if there wasn’t a literal genocide that needed to be ended first.

      Round two of the "the summer of '69 " is going to be a lot more intense. I genuinely do not envy everyone in the lower 48 right now.

    Breaking into the capital, causing physical damage, attacking police officers, stealing U.S. government property. That’s defending democracy.

    Standing outside a federal detention center where people are being illegally held. That rebellion.

    Welcome to trump’s America, peace I’d was, slavery is freedom.

      Most honest US politician says unlimited force to protect his elevated position is fine, but the tiniest amount of force protesting that position is illegal terrorism.

    People peacefully assembling to exercise their Constitutional rights, and the guy who planned, led, and launched an actual Insurrection which obviously attacked hundreds of cops wants to claim THAT’S a rebellion.

    Sounds like a martial law in every way possible except officially being named one. I hope everyone brings their masks with them when protesting over there.

    Well, my reading of 10 U.S. Code § 12406 argues that he’s full of shit. This is a law written in case of invasion.

      You’re so wrong. Well technically absolutely correct. However since might makes it right… you’re wrong since no one is standing up to stop it.

      National protest. Shut down the Interstates. Hit them where it counts. Stocks and cash
