A post that Mr. Trump circulated on Sunday called for Liz Cheney to be prosecuted by a military court reserved for enemy combatants and war criminals.
Included in the list of people to be brought up for war crimes against the United States were Current President Joe Biden, Current VP Kamala Harris, former VP Mike Pence, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Illinois Congressman Adam Kinzinger and Representatives Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Zoe Lofgren and Bennie Thompson.
Would be a reaaaal shame if someone interpreted this as a threat to the rule of law that necessitated some kind of presidential act. There’s gotta be plenty of realistic ways to fuck with him in an official capacity.
Not doing it would be literally suicidal on Biden’s part.
Can’t wait to see Biden take the “high road” and just sit back and let this play out and get himself executed. 🤦♀️
Leaving unused options on the table then turning the country over to a fascist is a lot like being the guy who sits at the table with fascists and if Biden loses without trying something Im gonna call him that.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell,
Lol, the angry orange wants to punish the turtle man who covered for him. You pick the best allies there turtle boy!
It would be schadenfreude to see Donald execute McConnell, but I wouldn’t be able to really enjoy it.
He’s on his way out, anyway, so the time it would have been a benefit is gone.
This country went from undecided on the death penalty to openly embracing presidential hit squads seemingly over night. The right is saying who is on their list while the left is saying they should make one. Good times ahead.
Can we please just label the republican party a domestic terrorist organization already?
Can someone fucking kill this dude please. L
If you’re worried what will happen if Trump wins the election, then you should consider buying “Trump insurance” by betting online that he’ll win.
When enough people bet that Trump will win, then it creates an incentive for someone who can influence the outcome to make a short term leveraged bet that Trump will lose.
You’ll gain utility from the trade even if you lose the bet.
I call this a “heart hedge”
Biden could, according to SCOTUS.
anyone could, according to their conscience.
If Trump has his way, Ai will point to his post as a reason to do just that.
do you need some official office to sanction you’re beliefs? they’re fucking terrorists. what are you going to do about it?
That’s OK because it’s an OFFICIAL Act of the Presidency!

just a bunch of cowards really
Biden and co will literally get hunted down by Trump’s goons if he doesn’t use his new powers to do what needs to be done
Damn, Liz Cheney really lives rent free in that asshat’s head.
CDS! CDS! CDS!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Mr. Trump, using his account on Truth Social on Sunday, promoted two posts from other users of the site that called for the jailing of his perceived political enemies.
One post that he circulated on Sunday singled out Liz Cheney, the former Wyoming congresswoman who is a Republican critic of Mr. Trump’s, and called for her to be prosecuted by a type of military court reserved for enemy combatants and war criminals.
A separate post included photos of 15 former and current elected officials that said, in all-capital letters, “they should be going to jail on Monday not Steve Bannon!” Those officials included Mr. Biden, Ms. Harris, Mr. Pence, Mr. Schumer and Mr. McConnell — the top leaders in the Senate — and Representative Nancy Pelosi, the former House speaker.
The list in the second post also had members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, including Ms. Cheney and the former Illinois congressman Adam Kinzinger, another Republican, and the Democratic Representatives Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Zoe Lofgren and Bennie Thompson, who chaired the committee.
The Biden campaign denounced the posts in a statement, saying that Mr. Trump “is doubling down on threats to our democracy,” adding that “the Supreme Court has now paved the way for him to do exactly what he is saying he will if he wins.”
Ms. Cheney responded with her own social media post on Sunday evening, saying “Donald — This is the type of thing that demonstrates yet again that you are not a stable adult — and are not fit for office.”

Well I for one look forward to fleeing our upcoming dictatorship
I really wish my wife had agreed to move to New Zealand back in 2016.
You may want to check up on the news from New Zealand, things are getting rough there too.
I know. I’d still rather be there.
Why? If the imperial core isn’t safe, no where is.
Right? The American military is unparalleled in its ability to find you, especially when you carry a
tracking device/data collectorcell phone.
What, no Hillary Clinton? Is he trying to lose again?
Military tribunals? Sounds like some of his article 2 powers with absolute immunity now, their use cannot be questioned. Go to town Trump, say the conservatives on the supreme court.
Wow does he realize that by doing this he’s basically making it self defence for Biden to anticipate him?
Maybe if he woke up enough to realize what’s going on around him?
How bout we jail this insurrectionist for high crimes against the United States
keep waiting on the state to do the right thing and see where that gets you.
No can do, high crimes aren’t against the law.
Biden can do whatever he wants now right?
no, the president (whoever it currently is) can do whatever he wants without any explanation needed as long as the Supreme Court (the majority selected by and loyal to trump) deems it an “official presidential action”. unfortunately, all actions Biden can take would obviously fall into the “unofficial” classification because, you know, reasons of some kind and definitely no corruption.
Even Hitler waited a little bit before making it clear he was going to purge
Bone Spurs is 78 and grotesque.
He only has so much time, you dig?
His dad lived to 93. -_-
The more I think about trump saying that he could shoot someone in broad daylight in front of millions, and not lose a single supporter…… the more I think he was right.
