What is particularly interesting about this...i saw this Bill Kristol tweet in Lynn Henning's feed.  

[pfife]

looks like yet more special rights for conservatives, this time National Guard protection that no one else got.  Shocking I know

[oblong]

When they say "pro trump people" do they mean protesters or.... politicians?

 

[oblong]

At what point should Garland appoint a special prosecutor?

Every politician that saw this memo and powerpoint should be charged.

[pfife]

charged with loving america too much

... Your comments of hate and violence fit right in.  

I also hate:

Hitler Youth, the Final Solution, White Trash Bigotry, the Nazi Symbol, Fascists, the Gestapo, or the SS if you prefer, military juntas, armed vigilantes, Mussolini, Lynchings, the Kim (Kim Jong Un) family, Despotism, Redlining, Kleptocracies, Domestic Terrorists, ...

Etc.

Sense a theme?

I don't like or support those things either but I would add all bigotry to your list...Hey we have something in common.  Difference is you seem to have a lot of anger or hatred in your posts and you calling for death or executions is not good thing especially on a public forum. Just my two cents.  Good day!

Back to this statement. I am 100% sure this or something VERY similar was said on a dark little message board leading up to.

- The plot to kidnap Governor Whitmer

- Jan 6

and believe it or not they thought they were just “Patriots” as well.

 

GTF out of there with this false equivalency bullshit.

I've hatched no kidnapping plot, nor have I advocated violence against the US Government.

NEWSFLASH for the uneducated: The PENALTY for TREASON is DEATH.

See my post above.

Here... I'll give an equivalency or two tigeraholic:

in 1933 Hitler's Nazi's created a fire at the Reichstag in order to force legislation through that would give them dictatorial powers: the Reichstag Fire Decree, which the Nazis used the provisions of to arrest 81 Communist deputies, and to prevent several Social Democrats from attending a vote on the Enabling Decree (enabling the Nazis to overthrow the German Constitution and establish a dictatorship). The Enabling Decree, estabblishing a Nazi Dictatorship, passed 444-94.

In 1922, Mussolini organized a "March on Rome" with his blackshirt fascists in order to attempt a coup d'etat. His threat of violence forced the King to appoint Mussolini as Prime Minister. At which Mussolini removed all political opposition through his secret police (violence, illegal arrests) and outlawed labor strikes. He then consolidated power through a series of laws that transformed the nation into a one-party dictatorship. 

We are at this point, RIGHT NOW, whether anyone is willing to recognize that or not. And Manchin and Synema in particular... appear unable to recognize the danger that our Democracy is currently in.

Perhaps Manchin and Sinema do recognize the danger our democracy is in and are the ones saving it by being against eliminating the filibuster, packing the Supreme Court and Federal Election law bill H.R.1.  If those were to pass our country would be in trouble.

[pfife]

imagine arguing the fillibuster is in-line with democracy.

Imagine arguing the filibuster is in line with democracy to prevent packing the Supreme Court when you eliminated it to push through Supreme Court justices.

Let's be more specific:

Republican Senators eliminated the filibuster to pack the Supreme court.

Our Country is in trouble specifically because of the actions of Republican Senators per your representation above, which you specifically stated that you disagree with... above.

You just HATE that you self-owned your own HYPOCRACY, don't you?

I know the word “treason” gets thrown around too frequently, but I don’t get how wanting to use the national guard to help topple democracy isn’t considered treason.
