I am apalled by the behavior of the republican party, and sickened by the apathy of democrats. Trump launched a violent insurrection and democrats let him walk free. GOP pretends the insurrection never happened. They now support an autocracy where the constitution and supreme court are ignored.

If the roles were reversed, Republican policians would be shouting "lock them up!" And yet democrats are weak, worried about accusations like "weaponization of government".

I have news for you: government should arrest criminals. The republican party is engaged in a conspiracy to overthrow the United States by illegally dismantling congressionally approved agencies and by making innocent people disappear in torture dungeons without due process.

We should be shouting every day that the people who enabled this must go to jail. We must shift the overton window among democratic voters. This is unacceptable!

Assuming elections are still possible, the next democratic president should take a lesson from Trump. It's time to campaign on retribution. Set the expectation that these criminals are going to jail, by every possible legal means. Stack the supreme court if you have to. I refuse to live in this madness!

Idk about you guys but I am Sick, SICK AND TIRED OF THIS. I love my country, my grandfathers fought actual Nazis in WW2, I will not be silenced.

I will follow the constitution of America but I WILL NOT follow a king who admitted today that he doesn’t know if he should follow the constitution or not (like Wtf?)

Enough is enough!

Save this photo, start chanting this or start posting it everywhere—especially if you are sick and tired of people trying to ignore laws and the constitution!

Use this on posters or flyers—let’s make it known:

WE THE PEOPLE WILL FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION WE THE PEOPLE WILL DEFEND OUR RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES WE THE PEOPLE WILL NOT COMPLY WITH ILLEGAL OR UNCONSTITUTIONAL EXECUTIVE ORDERS WE THE PEOPLE STAND UNITED IN THE PRESERVATION OF FREEDOM WE THE PEOPLE WILL HOLD ACCOUNTABLE THOSE WHO VIOLATE THE CONSTITUTION

Nearly 15 years ago I was sworn in as a U.S. citizen. I took (and still take) that oath seriously, not just as a practical ceremony. Tr*mp and his enablers and puppetmasters are oathbreakers. In a little more than 100 days, they have worked daily to destroy the U.S. government, the people, the structures that Americans have worked for decades to build to further peace in the world and support people in ALL their complexity. They dismiss the Constitution as an inconvenience; mock people's truly held faith with bad AI images, cruel behaviors, and usurpation of "Christian" trappings; undermine human rights, starting with trans people and immigrants (but it won't stop there); and so much else. U.S. history is complicated, a blend of atrocity and true greatness and everything between. The United States has never fully lived up to its ideals, but the ongoing efforts to get us closer to those ideals are the source of our greatness. The people currently occupying the White House are rapists, liars, thieves, and abusers. They see our beautiful national parks as resources to tear apart, hollow out, and poison; our people as bodies to break in service to them; our ideals and beliefs as tools to twist and manipulate people with. I don't know what their motivations are--greed, ego, twisted faith, some combination of these--but ultimately it doesn't matter. Their actions declare them to be enemies of the United States and of humankind in general. We should treat them that way.

We believe because we care for our neighbors and we care for America. We will say this and manifest it until it happens. We will unite and band together until it happens. We will be unstoppable until it happens, and we will do it all, TOGETHER.
