1. Won't make it past SCOTUS without Gorsuch

Trump needs Judge "Religious Freedom for Corporations" Gorsuch on the bench to uphold that EO.

Just one of the many reasons Dems must go ALL OUT to stop Gorsuch, win or lose. It's time to show the nation they actually have a few inviolate principles they are willing to fight for, come hell or high water.

Dare we hope?

3. Legality doesn't matter. This is about fomenting public hostility.

This is propaganda, not law-making.

7. Tragically true.

10. WH/Bannon are tremendously emboldened and enabled by the Gorsuch nomination

At least Dem Senators immediately spoke out against him- that he is too far outside mainstream despite his cultivated mild-mannered image.

Since he was nominated, I feel as shellshocked as immediately after election as the reality sinks in of takeover in White House and now Supreme Court by Dominionists and amoral corporate interests that aim to set us back for decades doing irrevocable harm to individual rights and the environment

2. There are more of us than them.

That's what I tell myself.

4. Remember Rwanda.

I mentioned Rwanda a week ago, and people told me I was nuts.

This is how the mob killings begin. Then our side fights back, the machine guns come out, and it's essentially a civil war.

5. I'd prefer civil war versus surrendering to authoritarian fascism.

6. Let's revisit that thought in six months. nt

8. You may be right, but I

Hope that the order is immediately challenged and stayed in the courts. This why donating to the ACLU is of such great importance. They and like minded organizations need our support to fight such nonsense.

9. The courts are totally irrelevant at this point.

Trump is ignoring them. As with his tweets, he is dog-whistling directly to his shock troops.

On edit: The rule of law is being suspended in front of our eyes.

11. I disagree that they are irrelevant

Its only been a few days and the system is in a bit of shock right now. This is certainly an uphill struggle but I wouldn't throw in the towel just yet.

13. This plays right into Russia & Alexandr Dugin's plans.

Divide and Conquer is part of the strategy, including isolation of US and Great Britain from allies.

[GliderGuider]

14. Yes, the plan is going perfectly.

I can imagine Dugin rolling on the floor of Putin's dacha, giggling with glee. I have to hand it to them, albeit reluctantly. It's been a remarkable piece of orchestration so far.
