none of the checks and balances have any balls

Trump took full control of the DHS and the FBI, staffed it with loyal goons, and is actively arresting/assaulting anyone who stands in his way.

This isn't a matter of "no balls", its a matter of Biden handing Trump's biggest supporters a bunch of money and guns back in 2021 and Trump telling these guys "Arrest all the Bidencrats" the moment he took office.

Dafuq is any judge or legislator supposed to do in a country when ICE can kick down your door?

They fucked up thinking they'd never lose power. Now its too late to politics their way out of the mess.

Not to promote violence, but there's a particular constitutional amendment that applies in this very specific situation

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

We've been busting through constitutional amendments with abandon. I don't think you could point to one that this administration would honor or respect.

Which is why they lable anyone they arrest as a criminal, doesn't have to be true. You heard Trump, having a trial for each one would take too long. So just slap a label on them and say you're though on crime.

By that logic, you'd think trump would be a slave.

He IS a 34x convicted criminal after all.

By that logic

Whoa, keep your thinking to our dear leader
