This morning, the man in the White House proved once again that he is both a weak little baby and a very real threat to the foundation of our republic.
As a U.S. Air Force veteran and former U.S. Government teacher, this is beyond unacceptable. Service members swear an oath to the Constitution β not to a president β and they are required to refuse unlawful orders. Thatβs basic civics and military law.
For a draft-dodger who ran from service to call for the execution of Democratic veterans who actually wore the uniform? Thatβs sick, dangerous, and openly authoritarian. This isnβt politics anymore β itβs a threat to the rule of law. Trump is spiraling, and Congress needs to treat this like the emergency it is.
The only ones that should be hung for treason is Trump and his band of criminals. Hope to see it happen one day. Maybe we could have have public hangings.
βTreason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.β
β¦ Thus, the Framers adopted two of the three formulations and the phraseology of the English Statute of Treason enacted in 1350,3 but they conspicuously omitted the phrase defining as treason the compass[ing] or imagin[ing] the death of our lord the King, under which most of the English law of constructive treason had been developed. Beyond limiting Congressβs power to define treason, the Clause also limits Congressβs ability to make proof of the offense of treason easy to establish and to define the punishment for treason.
The Continental Congress adopted a resolution β¦ which in effect declared that all persons residing within any colony owed allegiance- to it, and that if any such persons adhered to the King of Great Britain, giving him aid and comfort, they were guilty of treason, and which urged the colonies to pass laws for punishment of such offenders "as shall be provably attainted β¦ later years became so broad and loose as to make treason of mere utterance of opinion. Many a citizen in a time of unsettled and shifting loyalties was thus threatened under English law which made him guilty of treason if he adhered to the government of his colony and also under colonial law which made him guilty of treason if he adhered to his king. Not a few of these persons were subjected to confiscation of property or other harsh treatment by the Revolutionists under local laws; none, however, so far as appears, to capital punishment. [pp. 9-12]
"Every member of that Convention-every officer and soldier of the Revolution from Washington down to private, every man or woman who had given succor or supplies to a member of the patriot army, everybody who had advocated American independence ... could have been prosecuted and might have been convicted as 'traitors' under the British law of constructive treason."... This was doubtless the meaning of Franklin's quip at the signing of the Declaration of Independence that if the signers did not hang together they should hang separately. It was also the meaning of the cries of "Treason" which interrupted Patrick Henry in the speech in the Virginia House of Burgesses evoking the famous reply "If this be treason, make the most of it."[ p. 14, footnotes 18, 19]
Now would be a good time for Congress to hear what Special Counsel Jack Smithβs investigation foundβ¦
These 6 shoukd respond with the demand that D be impeached and removed as Commander in Chief.

Same πππ
I'd like to see some rethug legislators speak out against his violent rhetoric. They are all complicit but we will not forget.
"Be not afraid."
I have read that in the Bible, this exhortation is repeated some 365 times. A one-a-day reminder.
I have a vivid imagination, which can run away with me. But I also really, really resent being bullied. Stiffens my back.
We will fight this evil, for the sake of everyone and everything we love.
