trafficnab,

It’s extremely frightening but now that the rule of law is dead in America, I am forced to ask myself, what are my red lines? One person in this country has almost completely unchecked power, what would a criminal president have to do before I start condoning violence?

blazeknave,

They’ve shown outright it’s all about what you can get away with.

flambonkscious,

Finally someone gets it.

Chainweasel,

It honestly feels like they’re not giving us any other choice.

billiam0202,

You do have a choice. You can just lay there and take it. You know, like that asshole from the Heritage Foundation wants you to do.

I’m running out of boxes of liberty here

Dkarma,

It’s wild they think they won’t be the first casualties of their own illegitimacy.

Ghyste,

Yes.

VeryVito,

Abso-fucking-lutely.

ChowJeeBai,

Next up: they’ll have to rule on what constitutes an ‘official act’. Then they’ll blame the committee that assigned/ advised the action, leaving the king unscathed as usual.

DogPeePoo,

The $upreme Corp. is off the rails. Time for a nationwide protest and perhaps a nationwide labor strike.

MrPoopyButthole,
dhork,

Has the Supreme Court just overturned Betteridge’s Law of Headlines?

qprimed,

n… ye… goddammit!

OsaErisXero,

That this has all of a sudden occurred, and so consistently, is in some ways more frightening than the headlines on their own.

njm1314,

Basically they dared us to act or submit.

qprimed,

those boxes seem to be getting ticked mighty fast.

VubDapple,

Excellent concise summary

Dark Brandon Activate!

disguy_ovahea,

Us? We were granted no such immunity.

Stupidmanager,

Depends on which side of history you’re on.

danekrae,

Yet I bet the majority of americans are sitting behind the computer complaining about how much of a shithole country they live in, and are therefore submitting.

If anybody take offense to my use of language, please remember that it is actually a presidential sentence. If your the people americans vote for can dish it, you can take it.

America’s been a shithole for 20 years, the terrorists fucking won. Happy 4th of July btw

Maeve,

20? Please. It's never been great for people of color or lgbtq, and several others, and for the majority, it's been at least since the 80s the downward spiral began.

America never was America to me

twistypencil,

People need to do more than just vote. Democracy is not just about voting. Get out side, into the streets
