    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.

      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.

            I truly believe that. It’s hard for people to see when the “majority” opinion is so loud and constant.

            It’s why social media is dangerous.

            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.

      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.

        It’s my guess that they either have 1) weapons manufacturers donating to them or 2) have weapons manufacturing in their district (which they see as “job creation” for their constituents) or both.

          Of course they have weapons manufacturers lobbying them. The government is literally the ONLY client for some of these clients. Who else are they going to sell their weapons of mass destruction to?

      Yes. It also gives grounds for the military, from the top brass all the way down to private, to refuse an illegal and unlawful order from this idiot. It may also prompt the pentagon to remove him. Unfortunately, most of the pentagon’s top leadership has been replaced with yes men.

    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.

    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.
