In Texas trump built for rapist and murderers. Same treatment and accommodations they were used for to jail fleeing refugees. Cement floor and a plastic silver blanket. How sweet it would be to see the entire trump family on the floor wrapped in those blankets. With Miller, Bannon, Goolani, Jordon, and Graham just to name a few. Imagine the smell of Bannon after a few weeks in Texas heat and humidity in a crowded cement floor cage. Poor Ivanka, without her fashion perfume to hide the stench.

What is that signpost on the road ahead, I can't make it out ... looks like it begins with ... a capital "T"?

This is rapidly moving toward a full-throttled conspiracy to overthrow the entire system of government.

Another reconstituted and renamed central security apparatus can be formed with less ideology and more competence.

Or we can just keep and readjust the National Guard's operations.

President and he is willing to destroy the COUNTRY to try and keep that POWER - both to avoid prosecution for his crimes and more importantly to solidify that POWER and ROB the COUNTRY blind.

The toxic stew of his malignant narcissism and his sociopathic lack of a conscience and inability to feel guilt make it extremely easy for him to be willing to do absolutely anything to get what he wants, no matter who or what is harmed in the process.

He has absolutely no morals, no ethics, no concern for right or wrong, not even a clear concept of what any of those things mean. That's exactly what makes him so damned dangerous.

Depends how strongly you feel about it.

"A citizen’s arrest occurs when an ordinary person either detains a criminal or directs police officers to do so. Florida law states "the arrest of a person may be lawfully made also by any peace officer or a private person," but there are no specific statutes dealing with citizen's arrests. Generally, you can perform a citizen's arrest only if the perpetrator commits a felony and you either witness the act yourself or reasonably believe the person is guilty of the crime."

Tue Feb 1, 2022, 12:56 PM

I live in Pennsylvania, and we were one of the states that Chump wanted to contest (and flip.) Some of our Repuke legislators were trying to help that happen, also some of the deep red counties were going along with it.

However our Governor Tom Wolf and our AG Josh Shapiro are both good, smart Democrats and they saw what was happening. Josh Shapiro stepped in immediately and told the counties they couldn't grab the electronic voting machines unless they agreed to buy and replace them with brand new machines. It would have been very expensive for those counties to do that, and most of them backed off. I believe the Michigan Attorney General did something similar, and I'm guessing the Wisconsin AG pushed back too.

Quick action by our Attorneys General (and Dem Governors) put a stop to this. Let this be blasted far and wide: We cannot ever turn our backs on the evil Repukes. Never give them the benefit of the doubt. Not ever!
