Whatever Trump and company accuse the "liberals" of doing is exactly what they are doing. There is a coup taking place and it is Trump and his sycophants destroying the rule of law. The new law is whatever they want to do.

They are running it like a business.

Governments should never be run like that.

And we must be prepared for an all out media assault driven by fux noise and the rest.

Not to mention physical provocations and even actual attacks.

It was apparent when the CBS CEO stated that, in the run-up to the 2016 election, that Trump was making them so much money. That and the whole Iraq invasion, based on lies and driven largely by the drum-beat of the majority of U.S. media. And 19 of the 21 hijackers were Saudis. And Bin Laden family got to fly out of the U.S. when no other aircraft could fly. That was minimally covered as well. We are not defended by the media. At all.

Peaceful protests met w clubs and fists, will receive the same...in kind. No more getting pushed around. If you're scared...stay away. And for the love of god, don't poison the thrust of what others will finally have been forced to do.

and bring the return with them. If they don't, hold them in contempt and have the sergeant at arms take them into custody.

You get rid of them twice as fast. "Give them a chance"=give us time to consolidate power, and cripple any means to eradicate him.
