My faith in the Constitution is whole; it is complete; it is total. And I am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction, of the Constitution.

As someone who aspires to be a constant defender of the rule of law, I’m just distraught by everything right now. Things fall apart.

This is abhorrent.
America should not tolerate a president relishing in Pinochet-style rule over our own citizens.

Our Founding Fathers and generations of American colonists and English before them opposed a standing army. They would recoil at this imagery.
It’s fundamentally un-American.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.
This is not a joke. This is not normal.
Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

RAND PAUL IS RIGHT
Rand Paul: "The reason we have trials & we don't automatically assume guilt is what if we make a mistake and they happen to be people fleeing the Venezuelan dictator? ... off our coast it isn't our policy just to blow people up ... even the worst people in our country, they still get a trial."

There isn’t much to praise right now, but I choose to believe in America and the possibilities for our constitutional tradition.

We are in very dark times. It’ll take an entire political/social movement, an overwhelming rebuke at the polls, and a new vision of governance to unstick this country from whatever this collapse is.

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

Constitutional change does not typically happen without the public’s consent. Defeatism— giving up on the rule of law— is a sure way to watch cherished principles and basic rules wash away.

/7 Justice Roberts smug and superior dismissal of the dissents’ concerns seems to come to us via time warp from some time that never knew Trump. The danger of lawlessness he poses are manifest — he and his followers brag of them. Only a liar or fool would dismiss them.
