They are lying. Just like they do here.

Without their constant maga lies they would have nothing.

Shouldn't he have been arrested too?

He appears to have broken law by hiring undocumented workers.

This is how far from normal we have come.

The Senate (also part of the "Feds) should have been up on the podium with the rest of them. He should have had a chance to speak along side of the others. It's the Senators job. Also the job of Governor and the mayor and local police for that matter.

But the President is not coordinating with local emergency managers and local authorities.

That is a major part of the problem.

We hold these truths to be self evident ...

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good ...

He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

...

Shoulda sent the marines to the federal courthouse.

The control of California National Guard is being returned to the governor by law and in accordance with the US Constitution in a scathing rebuke by a federal judge.

Ball is in your COURT tyrant.

Re 51

Thx Corky!

Getting the word out is really important right now.

And I really enjoyed the comments section when the server went down.

This is the America that MAGA wants.

Is this the America YOU want?

It's back! For now.

Was watching the speeches.

---- good speeches too! Destroying this administration's actions. Hitting all the bases. Quoting the founding fathers AND the declaration!

So many logged in to watch that the server blew up. Apparently.

Broadcast froze.

Or the Trumpy's evil AI called the Eye of Mordor got a lock in it and shut that traitorous dissent ---- right down.

The "planned" protests are typically expected to be peaceful.

Peaceful Protests are now an opportunity for the Mad King to assert his authority.

Do not question the Mad King's authority.

I care that he is lying and wasting money on his hateful ego and the continued humiliation of America.

You think the Mad King will send the marines to occupy heaven if God rain on his parade ?

because this happened?

Tossing a senator to the floor and handcuffing him for trying to ask a question is definitely not intended to de- escalate the tensions created by Trumpy's lies and Machiavellian machinations.

That would GUARANTEE the mixing of church and politics.

Didn't you claim to be against that???

#35 | POSTED BY DANFORTH

Does it matter what a random guy named Bill thinks or says?

White Christian Nationalists are all for mixing church and state. They really believe that the separation of church and state is a liberal lie.

Obviously. And they will justify it any way they can.

The more money the church gets the more powerful it gets. The more powerful it gets the more it wants to and is able to make America a Theocracy.

What I read is he didn't identify himself

#16 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

The video proves he identified himself.

And proves you are an idiot who still thinks fixed news does not blatantly spread the lies of the Mad King.

Democrats seem to think they can do whatever they want, whenever they want and then everybody must accommodate them.

#17 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

Trumpy thinks he can lie and do whatever pleases him today.

Then everyone else has to hire lawyers to prove him wrong in a court of law under oath.

Meanwhile he flaunts the law with vigor!

even the most fanatic of Trump ball-washers, will be forced to admit by the nature of his behavior that he is a dictator.

Of course, it will be too late by then to stop him.

The Constitution guarantees freedom of religion and not freedom from being exposed to it.

Preach your questionable morals all you want. But when you choose to become involved in politics you are crossing a red line. (Not that anyone in the Trumpy cabal would dare to stop them) Being exposed to it and having your beliefs forced onto others is not the same ( see Dobbs).

You're free to believe, or not believe, whatever you want. But you don't have the right to silence others just because their views are religious.

And that works both ways. You don't have the right to push bronze as myths as science.

You get to believe in any number of sky fairies you like.

But YOU do not have any more right to inflict your beliefs onto others. There are other spiritual beliefs beside Christianity. Your Christian morals are deeply suspect these days. Many are finding a different path.

Also, this "legal" restriction comes from IRS regulations, not the Constitution. Many legal scholars question whether it would survive a serious First Amendment challenge.

Good luck with that. See you in court.

Losing your tax exempt status for violating the law is "not silencing others". You can still say what you want. The government is under no obligation (normally) to support you.

Having said all that none if it really matters right now.

The law is what Trumpy says it is.

Until someone proves him wrong.

Wait. Silly me.

I forgot. It doesn't matter what I say or what the law says.

Just have your Caesar do what he wants regardless of the consequences or the constitution and make us prove you wrong in a court of law under oath.

That's how we do it now.

America was founded on the principle of religious freedom..

And the freedom FROM religion.

"I care not if you have a thousand gods or one. If it does not pick my pockets or break my bones." (Paraphrased)

When churches try to influence the law based upon their myths and beliefs they are injecting themselves into politics and they should lose their tax exempt status.

The Constitution limits government power, not religious expression.

You can express any myth you like. But if you wish tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS code, then you are legally prohibited from endorsing specific political candidates or telling their congregation who to vote for or from engaging in political campaign activities.

Stay out of Caesar's lane and you can keep your tax exempt status.

can't take the Nobel seriously. Not anymore.

#39 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

Why would you? You idiots don't even take the constitution and the rule of law seriously.

We do not have a 'democracy, which is essentially mob rule.

Here we go again.

No we are not a pure democracy. Not a pure republic either.
We are a constitutional democratic republic. A republic based on a constitution. Not the will of a monarch.

We are a blend of those types of governments with three "coequal" branches of government.

Mutts if you will.

...

Of course when dems use the term 'democracy', what they mean is 'whatever we say it is.

#18 | POSTED BY MSGT

Of course they do! Especially the ones living in your head.

They mean we live in a democratic republic you moron. Our leaders and representatives are elected. Not appointed by the senate or a monarch. The president does not make the law. He is to faithfully enforce it. In accordance with the INTENT of and the will of the constitution. Not the will of a mad king.

We have democratic institutions legislated into law by our ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES. And those institutions should only be changed or eliminated by Congress.

"When the government starts dictating church doctrine."

When has that ever happened in America.

As usual you have it bass ackwards.

Americans had fled Europe to escape persecution by established state churches

America was founded on the principle that the U.S. Constitution is above and has authority over all religions no matter what you think.

Laura believes churches should be regulated what they may say.

POSTED BY BILLJOHNSON

Laura is correct. If the churches want to get involved in politics and preach to their congregation how to vote then they should lose their tax exempt status.

"Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's"

We would send emergency response teams but we fired all of them so Trumpy could attack LA with the Marines and then celebrate with a parade for the Mad King's birthday.

Visitard just can't wait to call in ICE so he doesn't have to pay his Mexican chef or leave a tip for the waitress.
