One way might be for the constitutionally savvy Dems like Raskin to propose a law requiring Congressional consent for the declaration of federal martial law.

The Constitution does not explicitly grant POTUS unilateral authority to declare martial law, but it has not been challenged in the past.

I think it speaks volumes that right wingers criticize bluesky for being “liberal” and “left wing”, when it’s really just that hate speech isn’t allowed.

Like others, I fear the threat of government retribution, political vengeance and an angry right-wing mob. But I know that giving into it will only strengthen Trump and undermine the future of our democracy. Trump wants us to be scared. He wants us to give up — gradually and then suddenly.
The Choices I’ve Made
From Marc | Since the election, media figures and outlets have followed suit — each moving gradually towards obedience to Trump and then suddenly.

Trump is telling us that he’s going to fire hundreds of thousands, deport tens of millions, kick tens of millions off their healthcare & cut hundreds of millions in social programs and Ma and Pa MAGA STILL believe all of this shit is going to help them in some fucking way.

Narrator: it’s not.

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.
