Trump got his Comey indictment Thursday and issued a memo directing "domestic terrorism" investigations. And yet, both provided more evidence that Trump is losing.
Honestly, Trump's EO directs the DOJ to investigate himself, his entire Administration including Stephen Miller, Tom Homan and Kristi Noem, the entire Republican Congress and GOP, the White Christian militias and the the evangelical churches preaching hate and racism.
But putting aside the above, Trump is digging his own grave. The faster he digs, the faster we can end this national nightmare.
Meanwhile, I'd be in jail right now if I had been present when that Federal Agent assaulted that poor woman. It will be important to retain these videos so that these right-wing thugs dressed up as Federal agents can be eventually charged and prosecuted for their crimes. I look forward to that day.
Alright, a lot of Americans care about the Constitution, but will they actually stand up for it? I'm seeing and participating in some protests and rallies, but we're running out of time, you know? Dt and his regime know that and they are pushing hard for an end game. We need to start pushing back hard too.
Clair here.. Thank you for your sharing and support of
Law….
For the first time I’m concerned for the safety of my transgender brothers and sisters.. Trump, has already “ hinted “ that he may declare we are “ terrorist “ and will take actions against us..
It’s our November 9,1938..
The time of the “ long knives”.. in Germany..
I wonder why the Sec of War is assembling all of the high ranking military officers.. is it a “ purge “ or perhaps a new domestic action plan??
We’ll know soon enough..
In the meantime I’ll just keep being me .. a 91 year old transgender woman ..
“ who lives in a shoe” so to
speak…’
I trust we will get through this as so as many others in the past have.. yes we will survive “ King Henry VIII..
but I wonder why.. who will be his Cardinal Woolly…?!
I’m confused at the phrasing of interference in the rule of law, stifling political speech, infringing on personal rights, etc.
This is word soup twisted to say “antifa” is a DTO engaging in the exact actions against US by Them using the weapon of projecting their own abuses of power.
If an EO is written, ICE throws down a person, puts them in a van for yelling a screed of words like long live democracy one is engaging in what? What is the crime that is actionable based on word soup of their non mandated illegal acts?
It’s hard for a person following things but if not, as they hope, what is the claim?
You’re right on ambiguity and how does ambiguity translate to actual definition? Or actionable prosecution?
That’s the point and the problem.
I could be wrong but I know the issue is intent and this is backwards.
How do they go to court on ambiguity that’s upside down?
Also, how does this get defined as an official act without solid clarity?
I have zero faith in the SCOTUS in any interpretation or their chomping at the bit to overturn Humphrey’s that would give him unlimited power to “debank” enemies.
A lengthly preamble, then the business end: Go after the Soros Open Society Foundation and let the indictments flow...let's just see if the petty dictator gets his No. 1 ask.
Good commentary - I agree and have been arguing similar points. I consider Trump far more an idiotic, however dangerous, demagogue than the more common trope of Trump the autocrat. For one, and this may sound odd, but he neither has the intelligence nor attention span to compete with true autocrats in modern History. Trump has no agenda, positions or coherent policies but for a combination of the words in his head, petty vengeance, racism, what is likely to get the most attention on a given day - and his desperate, and failing, attempts to distract from Epstein.
Trump is rarely rational or focused but continues his push to the lowest common denominator of deep bigotry and prejudices long held in America which his performance politics has brought back to the surface. It is all he knows and understands, after all. I think many have forgotten that Trump’s ‘break’ into national politics in 2016 was from his sponsoring the Obama ‘birth certificate’ racist lunacy. I also think Trump’s clearly failing physical and mental health is a driver to his increasing incoherence, impulsivity, and reactivity
And anything but Epstein.
That Trump is a small, weak, incompetent and deeply petty excuse of a man who plays a ‘strongman’ on TV via demagoguery is far more accurate. I mean, after acting the bad ass at the UN, and sounding like the freaking loon he is, Trump then had a three day tantrum over an escalator and teleprompter. That the escalator was apparently tripped by his own staff and the teleprompter poorly controlled by his staff rather than those from the UN didn’t break his stride. ‘Escalatorgate’ then became Fox News propagandists’ go to ‘breaking story.’ Trump is little more than a rage baby
And, after all, anything but Epstein.
Trump and Carr’s attack on Jimmy Kimmel not only failed spectacularly, but has given Kimmel the largest audiences of his life via a combination of TV and social media. And though Grand Juries often have a reputation for being able to indict a ham sandwich since they are all the prosecutor’s show, numerous arrests in DC were thrown out due to their absurdity...to include a man who literally did throw his ham sandwich at immigration officers.
Even though Trump literally ordered’ Pam Bondi to indict James Comey in writing and on social media, he had to go through a couple different prosecutors before finding one willing to bring adequate shame to her own professional career. Trump’s newly appointed US attorney intended to prosecute Comey is an insurance attorney and Miss Colorado finalist who has never proscecuted a single case. I’m waiting to see how the judge assigned this case reacts.
And Epstein still remains
None of this is to say that Trump, and his crew, do not remain deeply dangerous. They are with a nod to Stephen Miller’s fire breathing Goebbels’ imitation and still escalating stochastic terrorism. But Trump is easily and further weakened by ridicule and strong push back.
And with every Trump rant being an admission, the regime’s new focus on ‘radical left extremists’ in order to pretend that the majority of political violence and murder in the US does not come from Trump voters and the hard Right will be a problem for America no matter how baseless. To what degree, however, we will wait and see.
As a relevant aside, I found it interesting that in Dallas, we saw the third shooter on a roof in direct line of sight who apparently knew how to handle a rifle. Though unprecedented after the so identified ‘assassination’ attempt on Trump in Butler, PA, the receiving medical team never did so much as a press conference. It was remarkable both, that Trump’s ear magically grew back in less than 24 hours and not one reporter pushed for more information.
Then the wild eyed social media troll, Kash Patel, decided the shooter in Dallas was a ‘radical leftist’ targeting ICE agents. This, and despite the fact that the shooter had a direct line of sight and selected out detainees to shoot. But somebody wrote ‘anti-ICE’ on a single bullet. Somebody. With exceptions, Trump’s propaganda arm is as feckless and incompetent as is he.
Trump’s only lifelong consistency is being rage baby and a loser - and trying to now (unsuccessfully) distract from Epstein
Primo Levi, an Auschwitz survivor, on totalitarian government: "... power is conceded generously, is independent of ability and merit, to those who are willing to defer to hierarchical authority and thereby win an otherwise unattainable social promotion."
Rookie Florida MAGA AG James Uthmeier has created a portal to report anonymously those citizens speaking out in a dangerous fashion. Remains to be seen how the public responds to it.
James, btw, was not elected to this job but appointed by Ron DeSantis after Ashley Moody was elevated to the US Senate by DeSantis to fill the vacancy created by Marco Rubio becoming US Secretary of State. Now Uthmeier is setting his sights on the upcoming elections. MAGA incest.
'Americans value our constitutional rights. We will push back. And we will win.'
Do we, though? Some Americans, yes. The majority of Americans? Possibly yes, if you can get them to actually pay attention and give a damn.
Too many Americans no longer seem to give a damn about what is important for this country, as long as they can pretend everything going on really has nothing to do with them. It's all 'politics'.
I wish I could say people of this country give a damn, but I can't. Not anymore.
Trump gets his indictments and investigations … on the front page. But let’s see how vigorously they are carried out—perhaps even his handlers are getting tired of this vanity litigation.
So the MadRedHatter strikes again. Trying to force drug companies to break ground here within 5 days; going after upholstery (for CouchFucker?); tarrifing big rigs (Spanish speaking?!)
As you've detailed here, they have a plan. It's true that no one can say what will come of it. Maybe they won't be able to pull it off. But an awful lot of people said the same thing eight months ago and I would argue their plans have gone pretty well for them so far. So something's gotta change. I think we need more evidence of that than Jimmy Kimmel.
Honestly, Trump's EO directs the DOJ to investigate himself, his entire Administration including Stephen Miller, Tom Homan and Kristi Noem, the entire Republican Congress and GOP, the White Christian militias and the the evangelical churches preaching hate and racism.

A delicate dance to be sure—Trump’s desire for martial law is so obvious - and desperate- it bellows.

A lengthly preamble, then the business end: Go after the Soros Open Society Foundation and let the indictments flow...let's just see if the petty dictator gets his No. 1 ask.
Indeed, going after Soros - the right wing’s Perfidious Jew - belies his strong “antisemitism” program, doesn’t it?

Bullies are traditionally weak and afraid—why is anyone shocked by now that this is Trump’s obvious condition?
