Somebody doesn't like the fact that one of their own flagrantly BROKE the law and is FINALLY being held accountable for it. The Basket of DEPLORABLES are showing us who they are. "FUCK YOUR FEELINGS, MAGAts! Deal!"

Rep. Clay Higgins, one of at least two Republicans to use warlike rhetoric over Donald Trump's charges, told his Twitter followers to “Buckle up.”

At least two Republican members of Congress used alarmingly warlike rhetoric in response to the federal charges filed against Donald Trump on Thursday.

The former president, who faces a 37-count indictment on charges such as conspiracy to obstruct justice and withholding a document or record, is expected to appear in court Tuesday.

Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.), the tough-talking former Louisiana law enforcement officer who recently manhandled an activist on camera, instructed his Twitter followers to “Buckle up” in preparation for that day, in a dispatch that sounded like battlefield orders.

1. How many times must the R's declare war on Dems?

weeks ago Desantis clearly stated his political goal is to destroy the American Left. It was a lot like Hitlers decisions to destroy the Jews and any other potential scapegoats

Higgins is really just throwing another log at the bonfire.

12. They ride the line where it becomes comical

The feedback comes in the form of campaign contributions. If the contributions drop that means too comical and they need to get their hate on.

[Model35mech]

14. But, you see, I was writing to the FBI and DOJ, not as a prank

against GOP comedians.

There is mounting evidence of a civil war being organized in the US.

Our institutions need to mount their surveillance and defences.

[BootinUp]

16. There are powder kegs

that will go off and do much damage as we have already seen. But imho they are clearly losing the war.

[Model35mech]

19. Japan and Germany lost... at the cost of many US lives and treasure

IMO, there is less need for war and a whole lot more reason for determined deterrence of the radical rights opportunity to cost us many lives and much treasure.

2. Trump could

Piss on the constitution on 5th avenue and republicans would give him a medal.

No self awareness. If only they were Woke, they’d understand the error of his ways.

3. Tough talk from wimpy pukes?

Not scared.

[leftyladyfrommo]

4. So far they seem to be the only ones riled up.

KCMO. There hasn't been a ripple here. Nothing at all.

Hard to start a war when people are just not interested anymore.

Did they really think that 75 million people with houses and jobs and families were really going to burn everything down?

[slightlv]

9. Glad to hear this!

Thanks for the info. Was wondering what the mood was like in KC.

[leftyladyfrommo]

10. I haven't heard about anything so far.

I think people have gotten exhausted with all this drama.

[Trenzalore]

5. They have been at war with us since Newt Gingrich

I guess maybe they are gearing up meal team 6 to attack cops again but that didn't end the way they thought it would.

[Model35mech]

13. Earlier I think.

Grover Norquist suggested killing the federal government in the mid-80s, maybe 1985, by drowning after prolonged starvation.

We were all too dozy to realize that his bravado wasn't merely a shit-slicked speech of a craze man.

It -really WAS- the announcement of an agenda that is now in its 4th decade

[BComplex]

24. That's how I remember it, too, Model35mech.

I was outraged at the time, every day or so, but it seemed like everyone just wanted to dance like John Travolta back then.

6. It's just a bunch of posturing. They won't do anything.

They have to blah blah blah to their ignorant base. Fox News has to continue lying because their lie-addicted viewers will stop watching if they don't get their daily dose of lies.

Half the country is addicted to lies and "alternate facts" and there's nothing the GOP can do about it now but go along for the ride.

[Irish_Dem]

7. They're protecting themselves. They have most likely committed crimes while in office too.

And they were a part of some of Trump's crimes, especially Jan6.

[Mr. Ected]

8. The House GOP is currently divided into two camps

The Theatrics group that really wants Trump gone but know that his base would destroy them if they uttered the truth, and the Co-Conspirator group that broke laws on and after J6, requested pardons from Trump at the time, and now will do anything to protect their own asses. There's no real Trump love in Washington, no way.

[Trenzalore]

15. They are terrified of the cult

It is like Stalin, they are all secretly hoping he strokes out.

[spanone]

11. Republicons simply do not respect the law of the land.

FUCK THEM ALL.

IMAGINE IF PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS INDICTED WITH 37 COUNTS....JUST IMAGINE.

[Qutzupalotl]

17. Buckle up, indeed.

[Demsrule86]

18. Must of mistyped sorry!

There were many er interesting results.

[Rebl2]

20. They better

keep their mouths closed because the FBI might start watching them.

[C_U_L8R]

21. On Tuesday, the bluster could turn to fizzle

As people see the evidence, Republicans lose power to stir them up with phony outrage. Even those magat fools didn't bother showing up at his last arraignment. Despite the blah-blah chest pounding, they just don't have the will to risk much for Trump.

[TreasonousBastard]

22. Not congress, but local ..

The talk has changed from how Trump is a member of the Trinity, but how if they are going to go after him, what about the Democrats they should be going after?

Btw, I also hear that inflation is terrible under Biden, but under Trump we could afford more shit.

[Chainfire]

23. I would like to think, that the DOJ has sent a message to Trump's weekend warriors,

that if you break bad, you can expect some jail time. They are a cowardly bunch, they will bitch, whine, moan and complain, but I am betting that the don't show up in Miami with rioting on their minds.

25. "No one will be above the law"

"In my administration, I'm going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information. No one will be above the law."

26. Traitors should be locked up.

No exceptions for political affiliation.
