Any American who picks up arms to support a fascist dictator against the constitution and its people deserves nothing less than to be tried for treason
Posse Comitatus:

What does the Posse Comitatus Act say?
The Posse Comitatus Act consists of just one sentence: “Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
In practice, this means that members of the military who are subject to the law may not participate in civilian law enforcement unless doing so is expressly authorized by a statute or the Constitution.
Army or Air Force
Why he’s using the marines ya big dum dum
They’re also saying that the military is not being used to execute the laws, but rather to protect law enforcement officers
From the halls of Montezuma to the front yards of LA…
Fucking Biden. The Supreme Court put a gun in his hand. If he’d used it and sent Seal Team 6 to Mar-a-Lago we wouldn’t be having these problems.
That would have blew up this country. Biden should have arrested him for January 6th day one in office, sure. Sentiment was against Trump then. Killing him with government forces would have made him a martyr to all the right’s deep state propaganda.
You underestimate American complacency. Ordering the military to purge all life at Mar-A-Lago would cause a week of uproar, and then no one would care about it again.
The left are complacent and forget, the right invent grievances and hold on to them forever—just look at how much they still talk about Obama.
I don’t give a fuck what those worthless pieces of fucking trash think.
You’re right. It’s certainly not blown up now by letting a criminal run things.
Honestly, I think the exact opposite. Biden should have given Trump a full and complete pardon day one in office. Four years of federal and state prosecution did nothing but keep Trump in the news, day in and day out, and make Republicans more and more committed to defending him. All the FBI accomplished was giving Trump four years of free publicity - the most valuable political donation in American history - and guaranteeing Trump would remain the unquestioned leader of the conservative movement.
And come on, did anyone actually think an American billionaire would ever see the inside of a prison cell? Trump was guaranteed to get off without consequences. Prosecuting him was meaningless from the start.
OR, hey OR we could have shown up and voted for Harris. That also would have prevented a demented rapist felon from causing these problems.
But y’know. She loves genocide or some russian troll shit.
BuT sHe WaS nOt My PeRfEcT cAnDiDaTe!!!
I know, man. I know.
And that’s why all this insanity had to happen.
The numbers don’t support that story. The people who didn’t vote were moderates who didn’t feel a need to since they didn’t see the status quo changing significantly either way.
Then they’re fucking idiots.
Shitlibs gonna shitlib. This is nothing new.
I don’t really understand. Your statement seems to be the same as the one you’re responding to.
The status quo has changed dramatically, because a bunch of voters were too apathetic to vote for Harris.
My assertation is that it wasn’t the progressives that failed to vote for Harris because of some failed purity test. It was moderates who were too I’ll informed to realize trumplethinskin was going to change the status quo, so they didn’t vote out of apathy.
You’re suggesting there’s proof that Harris was too moderate to distinguish herself from trump in many voters’ eyes.
And I’m saying so-called progressives - with many representatives holding forth here at the time and still to this day - were saying they absolutely refuse to vote for Harris because she wasn’t progressive enough.
I’m just not buying the former argument. I know moderates and none of them were confused by how bad trump was. trumps campaign was every bit as chaotic and bonkers as his administration proved to be. It just doesn’t wash that people were fooled into thinking a SECOND trump administration would be the same as a Democratic one.
Well I’m glad you know who to blame with your anecdata. That’s the important part having decided it’s the others fault and going all I’m on blaming them, rather than looking at the actual numbers and trying to come up with a solution. The numbers do say differently though, but by all means continue to go through your life basing your ideas on anecdotes you’ve gleaned from online and personal interactions.

Par for the course- Republicans do something awful and someone comes and blames Democrats.
