It's hard to put into words, as it is hard to understand. But how do US citizens move forward as they watch their political institutions fail them?

Watching as a Canadian, where we aren't at the same precipice of institutional rupture, but it unravelled so fast.

The V1 cam has a great view. V3 (the one posted above) is mostly obscured by the ash being kicked up. In this view, you can see a lot of tephra raining down out of the sky.

At what point will leaders realize things are already "worse" and "inflamed?"

It's your job, your oath of office, to make things better.

Abrogation of your authority and powers means someone else without them will have to act in your stead.

It's literally your one job to stop that from happening

In his recent reply to Carney’s Davos speech, Poilievre said “But we must also remember that our trade and security partnership with the U.S. is centuries-old and will outlast one President.” This article demonstrates “centuries-old” is a gross exaggeration. dgardner.substack.com/p/defence-sc...

Not only will it not stop, it will accelerate
What we are watching is a paramilitary force learning that they can kill with impunity, that the regime will smear the victim and defend them. Unless politicians and the legal system exerts accountability, it will not stop. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/past-the-b...

We need Democrats who are willing to put their bodies and reputations on the line and understand this fucking moment.

If you have the power, prosecute them. If you don’t yet, make that your mission until it’s done. I know it’s mine.

This isn’t a drill. This is an emergency. Act like it.

Yes he can, because the jurisdictions have already been erased. Federal agents under orders are enforcing State and Municipal laws to justify the seizure and execution of citizens. They're already ignoring jurisdictions. The States ain't stopping or impeding that usurpation of State authority.
A President can't pardon for a state crime.

I don't know where peaceful protest flips to violence for protection and opposition, but I feel we're going to see that transition soon.

Canada is now increasingly in the same position vis-a-vis the U.S. that Finland is vis-a-vis Russia and that becomes more & more clear every day.
We need to start acting like we live next door to a powerful and belligerent adversary with eyes on our territory and contempt for our people and culture.

"If Governor Carney thinks he is going to make Canada a "Drop Off Port" for China to send goods and products into the United States"

The narcissism on display here is still wild though. It doesn't occur to him that we would want to buy those goods ourselves. Nope, Trump's America is the real goal.

Same feeling. And maybe that's the one upside to all of this: The US is forcing the rest of the world to at least acknowledge the need to coordinate/cooperate. Maybe the American Humiliation gets the rest of us where we need to go?

I completely missed the "Governor Carney" insult. Looked right past it.

He's such a loathsome and repetitive little man. His insults have stopped having any meaning.
