    In response, Democrats have claimed that Trump is sending the country into a constitutional crisis.

    Fucking Jesus the constitutional crisis has been here for almost two months already. Great job Dems on underselling the seriousness of this.

    The crisis is here and has been ongoing. Saying he is just sending us into it now is pussy shit.

    The only qualification Trump wanted of Hegseth for the job was a willingness to use the American military against American citizens on American soil. Hegseth wrote a book advocating for this.

      I’m also 100% convinced the story about Kristy Noem shooting her puppy is what got her the job. That screams callous and heartless which is exactly the qualification Trump would want…

    Saying flat-out that the only court they will acknowledge is the Supreme Court. Gee, I wonder why that might be.

      I would have settled for the 5th circuit, just like they’ve done 90% of the time. Bold claim, even for Nazis

    The courts have to start finding these people in contempt and deputizing people to go enforce those orders on behalf of the court if law enforcement won’t. The House won’t exercise its duty to be a check on the President. The Senate has barely made a few weak gestures. All that’s left are the courts. Well, and We The People.

    Why wouldn’t he disobey? There have been literally no consequences for Trump or any of his sycophants.

    Are you daft? You know very fucking well he would straight up disobey on the guarantee of a pardon from Mafia Don Mangolini.

    FFS.
