Republicans are traitors.
And if real Americans are lucky to get into power again, we need to take advantage of all these new powers and treat them as such.
Investigate and arrest the leaders of the Heritage Foundation for sedition, for openly attempting to convert our republic into a dictatorship in a clear attempt to overthrow and betray the constitution.
Withhold federal funding from parasitic, thieving red states.
Unilaterally declare tax breaks for churches unconstitutional, and issue them bills and indictments for decades of tax evasion.
Suspend security clearances for all GOP-aligned law firms.
Ignore court orders from the illegitimate, corrupt supreme court. Instead, investigate them for open and blatant corruption.
Kick Fox News out of the press corps and investigate and dismantle them for foreign collaboration with enemy Russian propagandists.
Denaturalize Elon Musk for lying on his initial visa application and then arrest and imprison him for stealing taxpayer money and deliberately weakening US defense systems in concert with his Russian and Saudi financial backers.
Many many other things we can do to destroy the GOP using the powers they've given to Trump.
Only once the treasonous GOP political apparatus has been utterly destroyed, and its leaders are in prison for life, and measures have been taken to prevent its rise again, should we consider restoring congressional and judicial power.
The only way left to stop this shit now is to use their authoritarian wet dream against them and make it their nightmare.
Trump's supporters will cry that this is tyranny and call the new government a dictatorship
Sure, but honestly who gives a flying fuck?
The Heritage foundation and Crow need to have a serious reckoning.
Trump should be charged with crimes against humanity. He is sending people to prison for life without due process
Trump is a conman, criminal, rapist, and a complete piece of trash.
