Raskin: "There's a regime of fear that has come down on the Republican Party. They've looked at what happened to Liz Cheney, to Adam Kinzinger, to Mitt Romney, to others who have taken on the president. They insist on absolute 100% loyalty above everything else."

When Trump says he’s cutting “democratic programs”, he’s referring to the ACA, SNAP, Medicare, Medicaid, social security…

His pitch to the base is, “I’m taking things you depend on because they were championed by people you don’t like…and giving you nothing from the people you do like.”

Winning.

We have to fight as hard and as long as we can. We are Sparta right now. We have to stay strong. When I was a kid and being bullied, my grandaddy would lock me out, and tell me to use whatever I could to defend myself. He said, “You may still lose, but you went down fighting…” We’re here…

Well, Senator Thune, if you don’t trust the judgment of the HHS Secretary, why should the rest of us have to put up with him?

If these were group chats of young democrats making what those on the right viewed as offensive, they would be called antifa terrorists and then deported.

He wants a Civil War and he wants to use California, a state he hates to make an example of us to the rest of the states. He's a fucking POS and the 25th Amendment MUST be invoked NOW!

Actually, they changed the rules. It takes 9 now, and it has to only come from the GOP side. Although, I think Dems can still vote in it. The GOP wants to prevent Dems from filing the Motion to Vacate. Assholes.

They can. Any SANE commander will tell their troops NOT to obey those orders.

The U.S. Navy Secretary says he had a "duty" to disobey a Presidential order. Can he make that claim?

Oh, I know that. But when our own Governor @governor.ca.gov sounds the alarm, it's for a reason. Everyone said he wouldn't send our own troops into cities. Look how that turned out. Cheeto wants a Civil War and he's using California, a state he hates to set an example.

Our own Governor @governor.ca.gov is sounding the alarm and I wouldn't put it past Cheeto to try this.

He would do that though. If he's trying to start a Civil War to retain power and do it to a state he hates, he'll look strong to MAGA. All it does is show he's a POS USING our own military to fight his battles for him. Any SANE commander won't obey those orders. www.findlaw.com/legalblogs/l...
