Dems: let’s start riots across USA!
GOP: here comes a strongly worded letter.

Dems: let’s forcibly inject you with drugs!
GOP: we might hold a hearing.

Dems: let’s arrest Trump!
GOP: did you not get my last letter?

"Republicans will not fight. A new political party is needed."

Why lose that infrastructure we paid for over the years - it's the RINOs we need to kick to the curb and take back the party.

Connecticut Senate election 2022 - Leora Levy beat out two Republican opponents in the Primary to face off against "Da Nang" Dick Blumenthal.

Neither of her primary opponents lifted a finger to help her out - they should both be shunned and excluded from the Republican Party.

Same thing goes on in every state - just pathetic.

Get back to us when the GOP arrests a prominent Democrat.
Otherwise, nobody cares. You’ve all done nothing for far too long.

““We have a judge. We have jurors. There is appeals.”

There is also grammars. Whew.

Alvin Bragg is not the end. Alvin Bragg is just the beginning of where we’re going. If you understood that, you’d stop saying things like “This can’t happen in America.”

You’d be demanding a GOP AG respond in kind. And respond right now. Nothing else stops this.

“He’s right, in a way. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with the system. It is some of the PEOPLE that manipulate the system for their own evil ends that are the problem”

The founding fathers had no idea about the power of organized evil, or that the people would be so ignorant as to vote for evil men and women.

We were able to 'trust the system' when honorable people monitored it. Today we have human filth like George Soros buying places for his vile minions to push evil. nee

Yes, we have great legal systems - but they can be abused by monsters...

The “system” got us to where we are. We have lost internationally. We lost our financial system and national ideals domestically. We are done and just won’t admit it. Time for a reorganization with a “system” insulated to all the abuses that got us here. Reading the federalist papers they believed in a ethics driven government. When a nation has a leader who proclaims that trans people are the nations fabric and that it is a racist nation that is more than an indication the system needs tweaking. It needs a complete overhaul. Won’t happen soIMO its done.

“I believe in the rule of law,” said Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska. “I think we have checks and balances and I trust the system.”


For Trump in NYC, we are years past that point.

Yup...we *do* have a judge and we *do* have a jury. A Manhattan judge...and a Manhattan jury.

Mr Bacon...you must understand that we're not not in Kansas anymore!

Checks and balances only works when there are parties with equal powers and are willing to use them.

Government power vs citizen is inherently unbalanced. THAT is why we have separate branches of government. It is the responsibility of government to challenge each other, not to trust a process.

Absent that Thomas Paine noted what happens to power structures in his famous pamphlet “Common Sense”

“it only remains to know which power in the constitution has the most weight, for that will govern: and though the others, or a part of them, may clog, or, as the phrase is, check the rapidity of its motion, yet so long as they cannot stop it, their endeavors will be ineffectual: the first moving power will at last have its way, and what it wants in
speed is supplied by time”

Bacon isn’t trusting the process. He is an accessory to it.

Republicans will not fight.

Some will, some won't. The ones that won't fight need to be replaced in the primaries.

A new political party is needed.

That's exactly what the Left hopes. That makes their path to complete control easier. Are you paid by someone to come onto FR and say such senseless things, or are you just that blind?

Republicans are supposed to fake it. That’s what controlled opposition does.

They are much, much worse than democrats. A democrat will come out and tell you they want all your money, they want you as a tax slave, and they want to kill your unborn and subvert the ones that made it.

Republicans just want to be wealthy, and they will step over your dead body to do it.

But if you donate to their campaign next year, they might just win this time.
