A post that Mr. Trump circulated on Sunday called for Liz Cheney to be prosecuted by a military court reserved for enemy combatants and war criminals.
Included in the list of people to be brought up for war crimes against the United States were Current President Joe Biden, Current VP Kamala Harris, former VP Mike Pence, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Illinois Congressman Adam Kinzinger and Representatives Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Zoe Lofgren and Bennie Thompson.
Damn, Liz Cheney really lives rent free in that asshat’s head.
CDS! CDS! CDS!
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell,
Lol, the angry orange wants to punish the turtle man who covered for him. You pick the best allies there turtle boy!
It would be schadenfreude to see Donald execute McConnell, but I wouldn’t be able to really enjoy it.
He’s on his way out, anyway, so the time it would have been a benefit is gone.
How bout we jail this insurrectionist for high crimes against the United States
No can do, high crimes aren’t against the law.
Biden can do whatever he wants now right?
no, the president (whoever it currently is) can do whatever he wants without any explanation needed as long as the Supreme Court (the majority selected by and loyal to trump) deems it an “official presidential action”. unfortunately, all actions Biden can take would obviously fall into the “unofficial” classification because, you know, reasons of some kind and definitely no corruption.
keep waiting on the state to do the right thing and see where that gets you.
Thanks man.
Would be a reaaaal shame if someone interpreted this as a threat to the rule of law that necessitated some kind of presidential act. There’s gotta be plenty of realistic ways to fuck with him in an official capacity.
Not doing it would be literally suicidal on Biden’s part.
Can’t wait to see Biden take the “high road” and just sit back and let this play out and get himself executed. 🤦♀️
Leaving unused options on the table then turning the country over to a fascist is a lot like being the guy who sits at the table with fascists and if Biden loses without trying something Im gonna call him that.
What, no Hillary Clinton? Is he trying to lose again?
Military tribunals? Sounds like some of his article 2 powers with absolute immunity now, their use cannot be questioned. Go to town Trump, say the conservatives on the supreme court.
Even Hitler waited a little bit before making it clear he was going to purge
The more I think about trump saying that he could shoot someone in broad daylight in front of millions, and not lose a single supporter…… the more I think he was right.
Bone Spurs is 78 and grotesque.
He only has so much time, you dig?
His dad lived to 93. -_-
That’s OK because it’s an OFFICIAL Act of the Presidency!
Hah, I expect that Mitch McConnell is still going to vote for him.
Of course. So will Pence.
Well I for one look forward to fleeing our upcoming dictatorship
I really wish my wife had agreed to move to New Zealand back in 2016.
You may want to check up on the news from New Zealand, things are getting rough there too.
I know. I’d still rather be there.
Why? If the imperial core isn’t safe, no where is.
Right? The American military is unparalleled in its ability to find you, especially when you carry a
tracking device/data collectorcell phone.
Punishment can include and is not limited to death.
I think there’s a bit of a sobering moment that we have a Presidential candidate that is calling for specific names to be held to a firing squad.
bit of a sobering moment
That’s why I’m investing and drinking lots of alcohol. Who wants to be sober as society collapses?
The guy that avoided drafting, is Putin’s bitch and said vetetans who died in the war were loosers.
“Loser” Why is that so hard for so many people?
Believe it or not, some people here don’t have english as a first language. Whether or not this specific person does is irrelevant, my point is you could try some leniency
I assume because it has the “oo” sound. “Loser” looks like it rhymes with “hoser”.
if you’re an idiot that has never read a book in your life.
Donald: we need a Night of the Long Knives.
SCOTUS: let us open the kitchen drawer for you.
He tried to get Pence killed four years ago. We’ve known for at least that long that this is who Trump is. Republicans don’t care.
They do care. This is exactly what they want, a maniacal dictator who will kill all the “others” to implement a religious ethnostate
When I first read that I thought it said Prince and I was seriously horrified. Now that I see it’s just about Mike pence, eh.
I hate to be the one to tell you, but Prince died in 2016.
Yeah. Still pretty bummed about it.
So if Pence would have died, that would have been an official act.
Hey, they may be handing the country over to fascism, but at least the people they hate will suffer!
Yes, my life may suck, but at least I’m not a woke gay pride critical gender theory non-white lefty lib that believes in human rights.
/sarcasm
It’s depressing because honestly I am just sad for the people that get into the conspiracies
The trump/Hitler comparison is becoming less ridiculous
It was never ridiculous, people just weren’t able or willing to look into the future far enough. If someone said this would happen back in 2016 you’d be ridiculed.
And now look where we are.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Mr. Trump, using his account on Truth Social on Sunday, promoted two posts from other users of the site that called for the jailing of his perceived political enemies.
One post that he circulated on Sunday singled out Liz Cheney, the former Wyoming congresswoman who is a Republican critic of Mr. Trump’s, and called for her to be prosecuted by a type of military court reserved for enemy combatants and war criminals.
A separate post included photos of 15 former and current elected officials that said, in all-capital letters, “they should be going to jail on Monday not Steve Bannon!” Those officials included Mr. Biden, Ms. Harris, Mr. Pence, Mr. Schumer and Mr. McConnell — the top leaders in the Senate — and Representative Nancy Pelosi, the former House speaker.
The list in the second post also had members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, including Ms. Cheney and the former Illinois congressman Adam Kinzinger, another Republican, and the Democratic Representatives Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Zoe Lofgren and Bennie Thompson, who chaired the committee.
The Biden campaign denounced the posts in a statement, saying that Mr. Trump “is doubling down on threats to our democracy,” adding that “the Supreme Court has now paved the way for him to do exactly what he is saying he will if he wins.”
Ms. Cheney responded with her own social media post on Sunday evening, saying “Donald — This is the type of thing that demonstrates yet again that you are not a stable adult — and are not fit for office.”
The original article contains 504 words, the summary contains 268 words. Saved 47%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Biden and co will literally get hunted down by Trump’s goons if he doesn’t use his new powers to do what needs to be done
We live in the worst time line.
