If they actually move to try this, the country will shut down, and the field and street will actually flood with millions and millions of protestors… protestors willing to make sacrifices via PEACEFUL CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE “the likes of which no one has ever seen.” Sports stadiums will not begin to hold the arrestees. Then the officers, outnumbered thousands and thousands to one, will give in to their neighbors and *join them* within the PEACEFUL PROTEST .
Stop thinking someone is coming to save us or that anyone can. Not even the judges can, we have to get it through our heads that only we can save ourselves. As the other comment said, what will happen is people will be in the streets, our country will shut down, and we will abolish this government structure. Johnson needs to realize he’s not in charge, neither is Trump, the people are! 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. Prudence, indeed will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
Our Democracy is crumbling all around us !The Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, actually proposes shutting down federal court districts which issue court orders that Trump doesn’t like!
You’re correct in asserting that while the bill will die in the House, JOHNSON POISONS THE WATERS AGAINST JUDICIAL AUTHORITY!
What’s to be done to stop the shredding of our Constitution?
Without a responsible mainstream press we are severely crippled in fighting against this tyranny!
It’s difficult to get public attention without the benefit of independent journalism!
I remind you that Poland is a democracy because of its independent mainstream media! Hungary is a dictatorship because its media was state-controlled!
This is indeed chilling. The fact that there are now Congressional members who would have the temerity to interfere with the judicial process is in itself a testament to the degradation of our democracy.
How can we strike back at this mutinous and irresponsible behavior by Congressional Republicans? They may be misguided but they seem to be suffering from group insanity. I have always said that a fish rots from the head down but this is more like a virulent disease than a simple case of rot. These people are motivated to DESTROY the republic and thus it would appear to be an act of suicide. God Help Us!!

Never in my 70 years did I ever think the Us would come to this. Scary times.
Thank you for your timely warning!

We seem to have a state-muffled media!
Holy shit!
That sick smile makes me sick to my stomach!

The GOP is deliberately trying to eliminate anything or anybody that stands in their crooked way
Why then would we need Congress to make laws that, gee whiz, EVERYONE COULD IGNORE IF THEY DON'T LIKE THEM?!?!?
Just idly curious...
It’s always been in the works. They are taking away our known democracy and stupid asses can’t smell the shit
Disgusting weasel needs to be removed!
Which weasel are we allowed to select?
Omg we are living in a Banana Republic who is now using rendition to disappear people to prisons in the jungle!
That in itself is considered a constitutional crisis, even if it has not been completed yet
Dig that grave…..👏👏👏👏👏
