    “Oh honey you just don’t understand. He’s doing this for your safety, and I trust him. You know you’d really like him if you gave him a chance. I thought I raised you to know better.”

    Or some equally gaslit shit if they’re anything like mine.

    I think it was Mao Zedong who said “political power grows out of the ballot box.” or something like that.

  As our sleazy ass SCOTUS is derelict in its duty to protect the Fourth Amendment, Colorado’s “Make My Day” law applies to warrantless raids in Denver. State’s rights, motherfuckers!

  You mean the police aren’t already militarized? We had them riding APCs out here in PDX in his first term. Oy vey do I hate this man.

  A third executive order requires professional truck drivers to be proficient in English.

  Racist as fuck.

  A reminder that sheriffs are generally elected and almost always attention seeking assholes. ACAB to the grave.

  So the military said “no.”

      IMO it’s unlikely, from the day you “swear in”, throughout all of boot camp and at regular trainings after its beat into you that you serve the constitution and that you can and SHOULD disregard an illegal order and what constitutes an illegal order AND an illegal order from the Commander in chief especially is still an illegal order and should be dealt with accordingly

      And let me tell you, there’s far far FAR more enlisted just waiting for an illegal order to come through so they can finally tell an officer to go fuck themselves
