Roberts just called him out for this and said impeachment is not the way to go. Wonder if he will turn on Roberts next

Absolutely. MAGA turned on Comey Barrett calling her a DEI hire as soon as she didn't rubber stamp the opinions.

Their own hire too. Absolute circus

Not so much if as when.

I must say, I'm pleasantly surprised by the lack of death squads so far.

The Death Squads are in every police precinct in America; they just haven’t gotten their new uniforms yet.

That we know of. There's probably plenty of shit flying under the radar because of how much bullshit is flying out every day (as intended). I really hope I'm wrong, but I really feel that organized crime allied to Trump & friends are having smalltime enemies/rivals removed on the down low with a perfunctory TS rating. I would not put it past them if this is the shit they do openly.

They used to be called police

But those had too much training in procedure and pretending to be professional between standing on people's necks without due process so now they're returning to brownshirts

What do you think republicans have been pushing hate on political opposition for 40 years for?

They already are. A few days ago, r/Conservative were thrilled at the idea of SCOTUS ruling that district courts didn't have the right to blanket injunction the country. Now their in the sub, snarling that Roberts is an activist and deserves to be deported.

Sounds like Roberts trying to hedge his bets by not sounding like he's calling for actual responsibility.

Can we just start calling him this generation's Neville Chamberlain? Or would Quisling be more appropriate?
