    In Italy if a politician pulled something like this, the parliament and all the party headquarters in the country would be set on fire

    this is rediculous. you guys in congress know that the country cannot remain as a stable and nice place if he is not impeached. you can’t just let a president break the law constantly. impeach. impeach. impeach.

    You know how the right tried to twist the truth? They told, on camera, that Trump wants to continue SNAP but legally can’t.

    I really want to see a reporter ask them how that fits with reality now.

      He’ll just call the reporter nasty, throw some uncreative insults, remove the newspaper from the allowed list and ignore the question

      There’s another reality where the hungry masses swarm what’s left of the White House like macrophages and destroy the rot inside, demonstrating with great visibility the it can be done, triggering a cascade of fascism FAFO worldwide.

      Sadly, we seem to be in the cancer timeline where they take all the resources and starve us all to death instead.

        I do appreciate the Mussolini ending, but…

        What I have been saying since Jan 6th:

        Bury him alive at the feet of Lincoln, maybe a 20 foot deep shaft, just throw him in, then the concrete.

        All that would indicate anything was amiss, would be an engraved gold plate on the floor, on top of the shaft, reading SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS.

        … A more patriotic spin on the steretypical real estate developer method of assasination.

        Leave him encased in his own disgrace, literally under Lincoln’s feet, the only suitable place for a racist insurrectionist mob boss.

        And also, the plate is gold… meant to be stepped on, and the engraving wear away with time.

    Let that Federal Judge know that if he want to deputize citizens to carry out his orders, I will gladly help.

    Can we please for the love of God have a judge actually enforce their order for once? He has shown over and over that he’s just going to do what he wants. The rest of us would have to sleep on a jail bench for a few days then still be forced to comply.

      Trump doesn’t personally fill the SNAP accounts, and Trump doesn’t personally manage the money.

      Start charging the employees with violating court orders.

      That’s the problem with the separation of powers… The executive branch is supposed to be the one that enforces the laws… The judicial branch has very little power to actually enforce their rulings. And Trump is the head of the executive branch.

        I’m not sure on the legal veracity but I read somewhere after one of his MANY ignored court orders that the Marshals might have the ability to enforce it somehow

      That’s what happens when the Supreme Court decides that when the president does it, it’s not illegal. He does what he wants because the Republican justices decided that The President is above the law. There literally isn’t any legal way for a judge to enforce their orders over Trump.

    Literally anyone with a brain knows the GOP and especially Trump is starving them whether they vote red or blue. Maybe all these red people need to lose their cable tv and just watch the de-programming start. Without their confirmation bias Fox/Oan/NM they become normal(ish) again.

    But then when reporters questioned Levitt, she barked back that he IS NOT withholding them and they are being sent out as needed.

    Why is it that the president makes some unhinged, mental social media post, then the white house has to translate that for the media? This is absurd and they all need to be removed from office for incompetence, then charged for all the crimes they have committed.

      Why do yall keep saying things like this. It feels like there are dozens of people trapped in the thinking that somewhere some other grown ups will be the grown ups for them.

      These are the people who have been picked and who have the power.

      They won’t be arresting themselves, and they wont allow fair and free elections if no one forces the issue.

    Nothing will happen until they are made to comply with physical force.

    Or basically - using the exact same measures of enforcement that would be applicable to a normal citizen.
