The government persuaded the appeals court to freeze a judge’s ruling that bars officers from using tear gas and taking other steps against peaceful protesters in Minnesota’s Twin Cities.

      It’s pretty clear that only states can save themselves at this point. The two most significant branches of the federal government are completely corrupt and the legislative is so powerless it is getting ignored by the executive even more than how much it ignores the courts. On top of that, you have the January 6th president who has already implied running a third term. Now people want to let the clock run out because otherwise they’ll have an excuse for what they are already doing who think that voting now when the odds are significantly more stacked against them is going to be a fix.

      Maybe, just maybe, if the federal government is no longer following the constitution, you don’t have to follow the federal government. By all means, begin creating one based on the same constitution, this would not be the first time the collective government of the colonies reorganized.

          Russia has a shit ton of paid trolls to cause chaos in the US. The woman in the picture is one that talked about how they did it.

          Edit: I don’t think you are a paid russian troll. But you sound like one right now, so the results are the same.

              That’s the best you can do, huh? “Nah ah, you’re a troll.”

                I’m not advocating for violence. I’m saying that everyday that your system is unable to remove an obvious abuser from the office, is a day when Russia and China celebrate. But sure, focus your efforts on me. The troll.

      Where are the 2nd Amender ammosexuals, Sparky? Suspiciously fucking quiet. Almost as if they were always spouting shit and cowering in their mothers’ basements.

          I know, right? It turns out the Second Amenders only care about tyranny in that they want to be the tyrants.

            It was always fairly obvious that it all boiled down to having no personal restrictions and nothing to do with generalized freedom of any sort.

            Covid solidified that.

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don’t end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
