That would be crazy. The fact that we are just 2 steps from that is also crazy.

...and by Congress, I mean Republicans. That and maybe the courts are the only thing thats going to deter this intentional chaos. Until we get to the mid terms and, even then, the next January after that.... that is all we can hope for and its not looking good. The alternative is something I don't even want to think about.

Its not like Walz is calling in the guard to protect the citizens from ICE. He calling them in to support the cops who are also against the protesters.
