The absolute Constitutional showdown is coming

[malaise]

The Court will side with Congress unless they are part of a coup. The Con is going down one way or another.
The end is nigh.

3. Or

no god.

8. Same here ! But being raised in an Irish Catholic household

I do love using those phrases. Glory be to St. Patrick !

[Control-Z]

13. I'm atheist but I love to say:

For the love of gawd!

Have no idea why. It just rolls off the tongue so nicely. Lol.

[malaise]

15. LOL

Rook me a few years - my mother was deeply Catholic and we were raised in Catholic schools.

2. OK so where will the RETHUGS in the senate be??

Will they ALL be CO-CONSPIRATORS????????

[malaise]

4. Prison awaits some of them

That is my hope

[bluestarone]

6. MINE too!

[Bettie]

5. I truly hope so

because we are if not at, very close to a tipping point where a whole bunch of the people who make the fucking rules need to decide if we're a republic or a dictatorship. Sadly, I think that far too many (Republican) elected officials will choose dictatorship.

[malaise]

9. This is the tipping point

and I expect him to lose. I'm betting on the Constitutional institutions prevailing, but if I am wrong - we are all collectively fucked.

[Bettie]

14. Yep.

My husband is at the point where he thinks that if it tips the wrong way, we need to ALL be out in the streets, no work, no buying things, just mass protests.

I'm hoping it doesn't come to that, but there are about a thousand things that have happened in the last two years that I never thought would happen.

[malaise]

17. Don't see him winning here

That November victory for the Dems in the House changed the dynamic.

December 11 - This was the beginning of the Speaker Pelosi moment from 13.45
The entire video is fascinating - the Con is completely crazy. I will shut down the government...and I am proud.

Decades from now students will still be deconstructing this video
Watch it without the sound - the body language is something to behold. :rof:

7. Did you miss where Congress passed the "national emergencies act" in 1976?...

[malaise]

10. Yes

A fake emergency is not covered

[Blue_true]

21. Did you read the Act? nt

[livetohike]

11. The GOP Senators have a dilemma. I'll be calling mine

tomorrow (Toomey-PA). I wonder how Rand Paul feels about this? Can’t wait to see them squirm.

[malaise]

12. Nancy has got them all by the balls

Good luck

[world wide wally]

16. Do I dare hold my breath till he goes down?

[malaise]

19. I won't recommend that

[Corgigal]

18. Can we little citizens

declare an emergency because we have a Russian actor working in our Oval Office?

Seems since it's all our funds, we should be able to somewhere...

[malaise]

20. That's a great choice of word

He thinks this is reality TV.

[roamer65]

22. We the people...
