Abolish The Trump Dictatorship

A relevant excerpt from the Declaration of Independence--

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."

Our lives, our liberties, and our pursuit of happiness are being threatened by this rogue fascist regime. We have the right to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government. If they are going to subvert the law, violate the Constitution, and destroy our government, we have the right to resist and to establish a new government. We are the people and we do not consent to this false and despotic regime.

2. The Illegal Trump Presidency
Tue Jan 28, 2025, 12:52 AM

Trump is repeatedly violating the law and the Constitution with his unlawful Executive Orders. He has rendered his Presidency null and void. No Presidency is legal if that Presidency violates the law and the Constitution. We the American people have the right and the duty to remove Trump and this unlawful Regime.

People like Marjorie Greene, Lauren Boebert, Clay Higgins, Anna Luna, Ronny Jackson, Paul Gosar, Harriet Hageman, Bill Lee, Ryan Walters, Tommy Tuberville, I could go on, all enable his boorish and obnoxious behavior and allow him to get away with it. But what can be done?

4. Trump's Government
Tue Jan 28, 2025, 01:14 AM

Trump's government is in violation of the law and the Constitution. It is illegal and null and void. We have a moral right to overthrow it and form a new government. Perhaps the Blue States should secede and form a new government amongst themselves. A new Union. We could restore the old government after Trump and MAGA are defeated and removed.

I believe in California they are trying to put forward a Referendum on secession. New York, Michigan, other States might also consider. We have to move fast.

We fought a civil war over secession.

For if it prosper, none dare call it treason."

...and replacing it with a new one that satisfies the people is called secession.

Reread the text of the Declaration of Independence in the OP. When a government becomes tyrannical people have a right to overthrow it. The Constitution is based on our natural rights. When our lives are threatened, when our freedom and liberties are threatened, the people have a natural right to overthrow the despotic government and establish a new government. Read the Declaration of Independence. It is the founding document of our Nation.

Everyone needs to not obey the unconstitutional orders. That way it is harder to do retribution. And more might be needed. Very turbulent times due to the Asshole.

7. Mass Resistance

You are right. Everyone in the country, including people in the federal government, the military, law enforcement, and the country as a whole must disobey these unlawful and unconstitutional orders at every opportunity. If we do not resist, we will lose what is left of our democracy. These MAGA Fascists are the Enemies of the Constitution and the Enemies of America. We have a moral obligation to stop them.

They're there reason we have Trump 2.0 in power and they are the reason that most of the MAGA chuckle fucks in Congress and the Senate have their power and will not let go of it. The propaganda is the problem, it has always been the problem.
