Why are we not acting like this is a coup? Because it literally is a coup. Our government has been overthrown by a terrorist organization and they are putting their people into positions of power. Is there nothing that could be done?

Recall that this Stable Genius was the guy who paid for a full page ad in the NYTimes against the Central Park Five (in 1969 five young black and Latino boys charged with raping a woman in Central Park). His full page ad called for the death penalty for them. They were later exonerated when the true rapist was found. The Genius would not apologize OR even back down. He never has.

He’s been showing his colors ever since — and they’re not the Red White and Blue.

He’s a bully, a coward, a grifter, a con-man, a cheat, a narcissist, a pathological liar and a traitor to our Constitution. What more do we need to know?

He’s not about to change now.

You're totally right, bu you have a typo in there, it was 1989, not 1969.

Strictly speaking, not a "coup," but an "autocoup." This is when a government that has already been legally elected into office tries to run in an illegal manner that solidifies its power permanently. Of course, Trump's administration did not really cover to power legally, since insurrectionists can not run to become president, but that is a failing of Congress and the courts.

Who was convicted of insurrection? Did I miss something? Treason? Maybe I missed that one too? You low IQ clowns have boxed yourself in for good with your idiocracy and lies. Do you ever get disappointed in being wrong all the time? I mean, it just funny. All we do is point and laugh at you freaks.

Mr. BroDangles, please consider reading my comments before responding to them. You would notice that I said, "insurrectionists can not run to become president, but that is a failing of Congress and the courts." Your argument is correct in that no one was convicted of insurrection, yet is wrong in the larger sense of not addressing that that was because the courts failed to act and the Congress failed to convict after a successful, and correct, impeachment.

Twist it however makes you feel good.

Several individuals have been convicted of insurrection-related offenses, primarily stemming from the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. Notable convictions include members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers for seditious conspiracy. Additionally, many others have been convicted of various crimes related to the attack, including assaulting law enforcement, trespassing, and obstructing Congress.

Key Individuals and Groups:

Enrique Tarrio (Proud Boys):

Former national chairman of the Proud Boys, convicted of seditious conspiracy for his role in orchestrating the events of January 6th, though he was not physically present at the Capitol.

Stewart Rhodes (Oath Keepers):

Founder of the Oath Keepers, also convicted of seditious conspiracy for his leadership role in the attack.

Other Proud Boys Members:

Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs, and Zachary Rehl were also convicted of seditious conspiracy.

Other Oath Keepers Members:

Numerous other Oath Keepers members were convicted of seditious conspiracy and other related charges.

Other Individuals:

Numerous individuals have been convicted of various offenses, including assaulting officers, trespassing, and obstructing Congress.

Sentences and Pardons:

Sentences for those convicted of seditious conspiracy have ranged from several years to over 20 years in prison.

President Trump issued pardons to many of those convicted in connection with the January 6th attack, including some individuals convicted of seditious conspiracy.

However, some individuals were not pardoned and remain in prison.

Maybe you’ve heard of the January 6, 2020 storming of the Congressional Building (sorry brain will not give me the official name this morning). The one that was called an act of treason. You just do not storm government buildings! Maybe you should Google January 6, 2020. Find out the truth you are currently blind to.

No one was charged, much less convicted. Do you even know what you’re talking about?

Why didn’t Nancy Pelosi fulfill Trumps 3 requests for National Guard assistance? Do you think she’s responsible? She seems to think she’s responsible, she even said so herself.

I’m sorry to say most Trump supporters live in an alternate reality. People can’t get their information from Fox News and expect to know what’s going on. Fox admitted to purposefully lying and settled with Dominion Voting, paying them over $700 million dollars. Of course Fox did not report this as part of their “news” coverage. Please open your minds, do your research from non-biased resources, and stop getting information from a network full of talk show hosts who constantly make stuff up. Please, and quit spreading hate as Trump does by calling people losers, low IQ, lunatics, etc.

Mr. BroDangles's avatar

First off, Fox did not purposefully lie. There was no admission of any wrongdoing as part of the

settlement.

Secondly, the left-wing media propaganda machine is owned and managed by global oligarchs and corporations. You’re literally being fed anti-democracy rhetoric 24/7.

Your reality is the alternate one: you believed the Russia Hoax, you believed the Hunter Biden disinformation story, you believed DHS was whipping Haitian immigrants at the border, you believed the “very fine people” hoax and you believed that Joe Biden was fit to serve. I can go on and on.

We can’t have conversations because the left has no understanding of the truth because you are gaslit every day. Do not be allergic to fact and truth, Rita. It’s not becoming.

When the former Supreme Court, now the Extreme Court, has abandoned America to the lawbreaking of this totalitarian, fascist dictatorship, and they have, giving immediate permission to any insane whim that is dreamed up, to whom do we turn to enforce our laws? The federal district judges are being sidelined. Their legitimate authority is being taken away. The Justice department is staffed with insurrectionists. This is why the second amendment was written.

Chief Unjust Roberts is participating in the erosion of law, on purpose.

They are fascist Christian Nationalists.

THE PEOPLE’S SICK DAY

When the workers rest, the system breaks!

MISSION:

The People’s Sick Day is a national movement created to impact the U.S. economy and demand real change for the American workforce.

Our demands are listed on the website

WHO THIS IS FOR:

This is for the working class—the ones who fuel the economy but get the least in return:

• Service workers

• Warehouse employees

• Truck drivers/Uber drivers/Lyft drivers/delivery drivers

• Hotel staff

• Restaurant staff

• Retail workers

• School staff/teachers/daycare workers

Or ANYONE overworked, underpaid, and tired of being ignored!

THE PLAN:

We’re organizing a 3-day national sick-out and economic blackout.

We won’t release the exact dates yet—this is a sneak attack. The goal is to build momentum before corporations catch on.

WHY IT MATTERS:

One day of mass sick-outs costs billions. Three? That’s power.

Together, we remind this system who it really depends on.

GET READY. “The People’s Sick Day” is coming.

This is terrifying. I’ve read that things like this in history invariably got worse before “the fever broke”. It is a coup. It’s infecting the gov’t like a virus. With the new ICE ‘national police’, he will have his own force. I saw an ICE officer today speak as tho there was no local gov’t anymore, just his federal soldiers. It was suggested they might arrest our LA major.

He wants to declare martial law and call off elections ‘for the good of the country’.

Please watch this video by Nathan Taylor with ElectionTruthAlliance.com, supporting the anomalies of the 2024 presidential election, particularly in Pennsylvania.

As long as someone is white and willing to break the law and even kill for DJT, that person is not only pardoned — he's hired. Many who've participated in that violent attack on the Capitol have obviously recycled their arms, khakis, masks and dark glasses to continue the assault on democracy as ‘ICE’ thugs.

Adam, America is being gutted from the inside. Violence against the most vulnerable is being fueled by billions of dollars given to a new American gestapo aka ICE. We have never been so weak as a nation from within. A vindictive megalomanic at the healm happy to deploy thugs against US citizens and undocumented migrants who are the scaffolding of the California economy. How will you protect the midterm election? How will you stop the sadistic violence being unleashed against America? You are and have been heroic in all your efforts. However, the democratic party failed at stopping 47 - given a green light by the Supreme Court. When will this nightmare end? How will the democrats win with a felon known to ruin people and bankrupt businesses? Feels like the midterms will be too late and likely manipulated unlike anything we have ever experienced.
