Trump amplifies posts calling for televised military tribunal for Liz Cheney (CNN)

(CNN) — Former President Donald Trump amplified posts on social media calling for a televised military tribunal for former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney and the jailing of top elected officials, including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

“ELIZABETH LYNNE CHENEY IS GUILTY OF TREASON,” one post created by another user that Trump amplified on his social media website Truth Social on Sunday reads. “RETRUTH IF YOU WANT TELEVISED MILITARY TRIBUNALS.”

Cheney responded on X, “Donald - This is the type of thing that demonstrates yet again that you are not a stable adult—and are not fit for office.”

A separate post Trump amplified on Truth Social Sunday includes photos of 15 former and current elected officials and says, “THEY SHOULD BE GOING TO JAIL ON MONDAY NOT STEVE BANNON!”

1. All wants to is jail is rivals

Be it political, legal or business, if your not with him, your going to be punished.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

2. The "televised military tribunal" needs to be for him.

Also, in my opinion, the televised execution for insurrection, treason and murder.

[rampartc]

3. i'm calling for a military tribunal of trump

i've had enough of this guy and the entire corrupt judicial branch.

[Irish_Dem]

4. Trump will continue to get worse, more brutal, more cruel.

More irrational.

[woodsprite]

5. And the asshat MAGAts and judges will continue to

Follow and do his bidding. They are beyond help.

[Irish_Dem]

9. Yes. In fact the worse Trump gets, the more they will try to save him.

It is called a co-dependent death spiral.

[shrike3]

12. Oh yes. The chaos is what I fear.

I do not fear anyone coming to my door with an arrest warrant for Shrike3. To quote Emily Dickinson, I'm nobody. I do fear the chaos that is going to come from all this. And the measures that will be taken to quell the chaos.

[Irish_Dem]

16. The chaos is deliberate to justify draconian control.

And to make citizens numb and compliant.

[shrike3]

21. Certainly. But their plan is unworkable. They want a society centered around the Christian family.

You can't make that happen. Not with the plans they've got in mind They want to make it harder to divorce. Who in their right mind would want to get married if that happens? Are they going to force people to get married? More chaos.

Their vision ensures that our nation will become more and more unstable. The best outcome may be its breaking up. Can't believe I'm thinking that.

[Irish_Dem]

25. Yes it is all so surreal right now.

The goal is to destabilize our society.
Once a society is destabilized it is easier to grab power and wealth.

Much of this is funded by our enemies who want a weak America
so they can become the sole 21st century superpowers.

You are also quite right, the goal is to balkanize the US into
various nation states. Putin has made this very clear.

His goal is to break up the US just like the USSR broke up.
He blamed all of this on the US and vowed revenge.

We can see various US states refuse to accept federal law.
And it will get worse.

[shrike3]

26. Yes, yes, yes. The Heritage Foundation's plan is unworkable.

I can't emphasize that enough. It will destabilize, destabilize, destabilize.

[Irish_Dem]

29. Yes that is the goal.

[StarryNite]

37. Yup, so in fact their plan will work if they get the chance.

[Irish_Dem]

38. Yes I think it will be a successful.

Evil and brilliant.

[TheRealNorth]

18. Kinda depends

You may not have pissed off anyone currently in power, but what about some lowly MAGAT relative or bootlicker that gets elevated to having a bit of power?

[shrike3]

22. More chaos.

[Turbineguy]

6. Yeah, like the Soviets did

Followed by a Makarov shot in the neck.

[Irish_Dem]

10. Or skip the tribunal and just go to the shot in the neck.

[Emile]

7. Yep, he wants to be a dictator like Castro and Hitler.

Miami Cubans still voting for the Magic R?

[TheRealNorth]

19. You presume they don't like dictators....

They like dictators - just not left-wing dictators.

[Emile]

34. They are like most Republicans, HYPOCRITES

to the core.

[Prairie Gates]

8. Sounds like an "official act"

[Irish_Dem]

13. Yes the Supreme Court will insist it is an official act.

[Prairie Gates]

14. All things military fall under the purview of the President

All official acts. The President must be energetic. An energetic and vigorous executive, never second guessing himself. Federalist 70! Federalist 70!

(As they march us to the shooting pits.)

[Irish_Dem]

17. Oh this is why Trump is blathering on about military tribunals.

He cannot be stopped that way.

[Prairie Gates]

20. There's precedent! Roosevelt held them

We heard this during the Bush Administration. They saved it back pocket.

[Irish_Dem]

24. The Supreme Court will love this so much.

Citing FDR and Bush to justify military tribunals against civilians.

[Prairie Gates]

40. It will make Kavanaugh feel like he's pushing a teenaged girl into a bedroom

with his best drinking buddy.

[Irish_Dem]

41. Thomas can feel like he is sexually harassing a woman.

And Alito can pretend he is burning a woman at the stake.

They will all be so happy.

[onecaliberal]

32. Yes because he has a sad, you know that is all the official he needs.

[orange jar]

11. So I guess this puts a damper

on the side of QAnon that believes military tribunals are already happening behind the scenes.

[moondust]

15. Hold the "tribunal" in Salem.

Just call her a witch! And then round up all the other witches and warlocks!

[Irish_Dem]

23. Burning women at the stake will come back in style.

This is what the patriarchy really wants to do.

[Bayard]

27. How is Liz Cheney under military jurisdiction?

What a moroon.

[Irish_Dem]

30. Trump will do what he wants. And no one will stop him.

[getagrip_already]

36. Terrorists after 9/11 were tried by military tribunal....

Rather than civilian courts.

I think it wasn't until Obama that cases were moved back to civilian courts.

I have no idea how or why a civilian citizen could be brought before a military court unless something like the insurrection act was declared and habeas corpus was suspended.

[Prairie Gates]

42. Every case will be fast-tracked to the Supreme Court, which will uphold whatever the Trump DOJ wants

Oh, by the way, the Attorney General's office will be held by jointly by Stuart Rhodes and Dominic Pezzola

[viva la]

28. The msm, of course, doesn't even bother to question--

"How nuts/corrupt is this guy who was president for 4 years and doesn't know civilians can't be tried by the military?"

Then again, the supreme court just ruled that he can order that to happen and also order the verdict and execution without consequence.

[Irish_Dem]

31. The SC will back Trump no matter what he does.

[keithbvadu2]

33. Are we under martial law with Cadet Bone Spurs?......... Yet?

[getagrip_already]

43. If we were, you wouldnt need a tribunal at all....

Trials would simply become a form of justice before the drum head.

While the term referred to swift court martial's in the field, why stand on history?

[keithbvadu2]

44. "before the drum head"... I had to look it up.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drumhead_court-martial

[getagrip_already]

45. yup, brutal, fast, no appeals - instant results

If death, you were gone within 24 hours. And it was usually death, or something very painful.

One person was the prosecutor, judge, and jury. Very efficient. Oh, and no defense lawyers. Such a bother.

[onethatcares]

35. I don't think that

he should mess with Darths' daughter Darth and company have experience in this type of thing and he's been around since forever

[ScratchCat]

39. I think its time that Liz

Calls in a favor from Daddy
