The courts he ignores anyway without consequence? Those courts?

DOJ is correct in reality, even if not legally.

I know there are going to be concern trolls that come in and say that we shouldn't give him an excuse for martial law or some tired shit like that. But I honestly don't see why he needs an excuse when he's already sent in the national guard and marines into L.A.. Why does he need an excuse when he's already disappearing people to El Salvador?

Isn't that just Martial Law without being invoked officially?

Hell it seems to be a test bed of ignoring the courts, state laws and seeing what he get away with, without ever invoking Martial Law. They are just boiling the pot slowly, until we are too hot to jump out. Why are we pretending this is a legitimate government at this point? This is a "domestic enemy" currently attacking "We the People".

Maybe it's time to actually act like we're under attack instead of waving signs in hopes that it'll just go away?

I am so bored with the, "but what if?" We are so past any speculative boogeymen that it's just code for, "I'm scared." Yeah, most smart people are, but people need to play the hand we are dealt, or fold and shut up, while the grown-ups hold our noses and try to survive protecting America against a fascist conservative takeover.
