Trump administration officials seriously discussing invoking Insurrection Act, sources say
Talk inside the White House about invoking the act has ebbed and flowed since Trump took office again in January, said the five people, who include the senior administration official, two people familiar with the discussions and two people close to the White House.
But the debate inside the administration has shifted recently, from whether it makes sense to invoke the act to more deeply exploring how and when it might be invoked, both people close to the White House said.
Insurrectionist traitor skirts punishment for treason against the United States, becomes president. Again ffs. And proceeds to invoke the Insurrection Act as a prelude to implementing martial law and becoming a full fledged dictator.
All because the Dems didn't want to "seem political". Mmmmkay.
The world is laughing at us.
Oh, we're not laughing.
I'm Canadian and I'm quivering in fear
Well a bit in the beginning because of the absurdity, but yeah, now it's just sad and terrifying.
Are you taking refugees?
Because the Dems are just the same billionaires but in blue.
People need to realize that Trump is 50 years in the making. He was not the first to put "undesirables" in camps and arrest people based on racial profiling. He's not the first to give tax cuts/subsidies/bailouts to the rich while the cost of living gets progressively worse. He's not the first president to bomb countries without Congressional approval.
These trends are accelerated by Trump, but will continue after he's gone because they are systemic.
Why don't all criminals just run for office? They can't be sentenced then, that would seem political
Oh no no, you misunderstand.
You must also be rich and white. It's not political to lock up poor or minority political candidates, even if they aren't criminals.
Laughing is the wrong word. The world has lost all respect for us. But also, most Americans have lost all respect for their government as well.
Nah, the dems are complicit. Anyone with 2 neurons to rub together saw this coming. The reason they didnt prosecute is because theyre busy trying to find ways to secure themselves in the new regime, not antagonise the new god-leader. The Dems are straight up evil, only differentiated from the fascists by the fact that theyre too scared to actually do anything impactful.
I'm not sure how this is the dems fault, but okay.
Trump is hitler stupid, and it's the dems fault.
I'm not sure the specific blame the above commenter is referring to, but I blame Democrats for two things.
The Dems put 'decorum' before sanity. The DOJ in the new admin should have gone hard after Trump and his henchmen on January 21 2021.
Because the Dems allowed open treason to fester. Trump literally should have been executed for crimes against the state.
Instead he was let off with zero repercussions and allowed to pardon the insurrectionist mob. Terrible consequences have ensued and will continue on.
There is no low the Republicans can stoop to that won't result Murc's Law being a thing.
The Republicans could be at the shoving people onto trains phase and there will still be a certain type of individual trying to blame the Democrats for not stopping the Republicans...
One reason it's the Dems fault ..
They should've forced Biden to stick to the one term and immediately supported and pushed Harris as the candidate.
