Like every bully that gets called on their shit, they back down. Especially when it looks like a fight might happen and they may face consequences.
Carr needs to go.
Except I'm not sure what kind of bootlicker trump would install next.

1. Doing speeches, and doing the good work.
2. WTF are you doing your speeches and strategizing?
3. Why is it Pres. Obama's responsibility to fix this?
3a. Especially after the utter abdication of responsibility by the DNC for getting us in this mess to start with?

I had a prof, ages ago for History, that would lambast anyone that tried to use a video as an argument.
"I need to know YOUR words, not theirs. Think for yourself and write something."
I've had low to no tolerance for video as a source since then.

Is there some script of this? I have neither the time nor the inclination to watch a series of videos and potentially have to listen to Trump's voice.

Compassion exists for those who operate within the social contract.
You show up with a gun and threaten us, then insist on tolerance? We do not have tolerance for that. You do not tolerate people that want you dead. How are you not understanding this at your age?

Because he had the audacity to ask for the judicial warrant, as they were interrupting him during his duties.
And apparently there was a conversation before he arrived between the agents where one stated, "Do we want to arrest the Comptroller?"
They knew what they were doing.

Sure, in terms of the definition and how many letters are used.
Pointing out that it's not a law is utterly futile when the Executive branch is acting on these edicts as though they are laws. When law enforcement agencies are acting on EOs as though they are edicts from the throne, who cares?

Show me where it being an EO and not a Law has stopped Musk from destroying institutions that he should have no power to touch.
Calling it an EO as though it's not important is pure sophistry. The Right has the tools to enforce executive fiats from Trump. Arresting judges should have been the clue.

Chuck will absolutely bend the knee.
He always does that, just before he kisses ass across the aisle. There's no fight left in the man, if there was any to begin with.

Our failure as a nation to teach history properly, instead teaching it as date memorization, has handicapped our understanding of just how stupid humans can be.
On the plus side, at least this fiasco will be well documented.

You think SCOTUS started this?
My dude, no.
This started before Reagan was elected. We're just in the last Quarter of the game.
And at this point, the Right WANTS us to attack the Constitution while all this is going on. They'll meet us at the table so fast for that, and then they'll run with it.

I know that any hope of returning to anything like what we used to call normal is utterly destroyed.
I'd love to have a reason to not despair for the future though.
