When all of this is said and done, pam bondi, along with the spineless, cowardly republican congressman and republican senators, elon, trump, and every billionaire who backed this and who are complicit to this dismantling of our government, and this coup, need to be arrested and charged with treason.

And nothing worthwhile will happen in 2028. There won't be an election if we continue as we are. I think what we will see is Americans caving to the dictator and is threats of violence against us. I do try to look on the bright side of things, but unless those that can take the reins, we are sunk. Trump is intoxicated with power and Elon is just mentally ill besides being a racist with this "superior race", meaning his kids will be racist and as stupid and disgusting as their daddy Musk.

If members of Congress are complicit in an attempt to overthrow the US government, they could face penalties including imprisonment and fines, as well as potential disqualification from holding future office, depending on the nature and extent of their involvement.

Right of Revolution: The right of revolution, as stated in the Declaration of Independence, is a last resort when all other avenues have been exhausted.

Expand full comment
NiaSky's avatar

Here's a breakdown of the situation and potential actions:

The Right of Revolution:

The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution both implicitly recognize the right of the people to alter or abolish a government that becomes destructive of their rights.

No Self-Policing:

The concept of Congress policing itself is a flawed assumption. If Congress is the entity committing the act of overthrow, it cannot be expected to self-correct or self-correct.

Potential Actions:

Constitutional Crisis: A government overthrown by Congress would create a constitutional crisis, requiring the people to take action.

NiaSky's avatar

If Congress were to overthrow the government, a situation requiring the people to act, the Constitution grants the people the right to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government.

Declaration of Independence:

The Declaration of Independence, which predates the Constitution, states that "whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government"

If the President or Vice President commits treason and attempts to overthrow the government, the penalty includes death, or imprisonment for not less than five years with a minimum fine of $10,000, and disqualification from holding any office under the United States.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Treason Defined:

The Constitution defines treason as "levying war against them, or, in their adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort". (Russia) Penalties for Treason:

Death: The Constitution allows for the death penalty as a punishment for treason.

Imprisonment: The minimum penalty is imprisonment for not less than five years.

Fine: There is a minimum fine of $10,000.

Disqualification from Office: Anyone convicted of treason is ineligible to hold public office.

Impeachment:

The Constitution also allows for the impeachment and removal from office of the President and Vice President for treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

Impeachment Process:

The House of Representatives has the sole power to impeach.

The Senate has the sole power to try any impeachment.

A two-thirds vote of the Senate is required for conviction.

The penalty for an impeached official upon conviction is removal from office.

Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Pam Bondi - welcome to reality!!!

This is Capitalism!!

Do you think DEI was just government driven? No

Look back at the protests of the 60ies and 70ies. Companies looked at those massive protests and realized “times are a changing”

The companies that not only produced a decent product but also attempted to mirror the values of “equality”, “concern for the environment” etc, had more sales.

The people are pissed off at Elon Musk messing around in things that effect their lives.

No one voted for Elon. Our lives are not Elon’s to play with - so

Of course people will tank Tesla.

Elon’s major stockholders are telling him to stop.

We the people are telling to stop making our lives harder or we will make his life harder

We the people can go after every stock of every Cabinet member or their spouse who is screwing around negatively with our lives.

Play with us and we will play with you - and there’s a lot more of us than you.

It’s one of the reasons businesses were supposed to be put in blind trusts when officials were serving in high level jobs.

Welcome to America Elon - and welcome to reality the rest of you in the Trump administration.

You bunch of Bozo’s can’t even keep war plans off the internet. And you are firing all the public servants with experience???

Trumpians are aware of how he treats his close friends but don’t have the imagination or mental resources to figure out it will happen to them too. Look at Bannon.

What this Regime has done to anyone of us it will do to anyone of us. The people of the United States are seen by the Regime as a scourge to be controlled as much as they see immigrants and law firms and media; as much as they see the agencies that serve us such as social security, hospitals, schools, Medicare, Medicaid, the CDC, FDA and more too long a list to complete here.

As to our health it will no longer provide what we count on to keep the overall population healthy. The meeting to plan for the next flu season was cancelled. There is no vaccine in development for the bird flu. And, likely no work to get ready for the next version of Covid that is reportedly making its way to us slowly and has shown to be resistant to the vaccines we have on hand for Covid.

It is obvious to me that behind closed doors Trump *who has in his first term showed support of it* and RFK Jr have plans to handle disease thru "herd" immunity. Measles is an obvious example where it has spread across the country with no response or direction to be vaccinated against if from RFK Jr.

We are the herd and only the strongest of us and our children will survive this regime and the diseases and poverty that will in due time become the reality of our lives. To weaken us will make it easy to control us.

In Hitler's Germany there were targets of his evil. In America we are all targets today. None will escape unless we stand up and pour into the streets not by the thousand but millions of us with no relief until we overthrow this Regime.

If you don't have a protest on your calendar go to Indivisible find your local "tribe" and sign up, then show up. Don't worry about signs we need bodies!!

I agree with everything that you wrote. I also think that they are deliberately calling the herd. They want fewer of us.

Expand full comment
RAISSA's avatar

It is a real term but applied to animals “herd immunity” but has made a cross over as a medical description of what vaccines produce. Disease produces it as well, but it is a more brutal form of reaching “herd immunity.” Many will die for no reason other the vanity of one made man in charge of the CDC and the disregard of another in charge of our country and the sycophants who follow but be assured will not suffer, now will their children.

All true, but some viruses are also much less susceptible to control via herd immunity, as when viruses rapidly mutate and when people who catch the virus don't show symptoms for some time.

Their whole platform is based on fear.

They want the people to live in fear.

Fear the others. The others are dangerous and the others mean you harm, and the others are going to take away what belongs to you.

Vote for us because you are afraid and we’re the only ones who can help you.

Listen to us because you’ll be afraid that if you don’t come with us, you’ll be left behind.

To those who oppose them, their message is: Fear our threats that we will bring violence and oppression… this is where they start to speak the truth.

The majority needs to realize that MAGA and the like are the minority.

There are more of us than there are of them.

We need to spread a message of resistance both quietly and loudly. Each person doing as much as they can where they are with what they have.

I agree with that. My morning realization today is that their approach is one of "divide and conquer". Isolate one governor, make them all tremble. Arrest one protesting student, silence them all. Target a specific University, a specific lawfirm, media organisation, make them all cower.

Trump is a bully, but he's also telegraphing one thing: the identity of those he views and his biggest threats, of those that he needs removed from play ASAP.

The students who would protest his regime and his orders. The Universities that shape these critical and vocal minds. The lawyers and judges who would defend the constitution. The media who would speak truth to power. The politicians who would keep their institutions in check. The minorities who've organized and fought for their rights in the past.

Lisa Gallagher's avatar

I completely agree. While he is a bully and a narcissistic cruel man… I think he is also fearful himself. He lashes out and fears his power being taken away… that he won’t get the respect he believes he deserves.

He is angry. Resentful. Vindictive.

And that combined with the power he is grabbing left and right is so dangerous.

But can also make him vulnerable if pushed hard enough to become so unstable he falls.
