So now, in the name of preserving our system of government, a lawyer in Texas is asking a court to order the Biden administration to follow all of Trump's policies and give Trump the power to weigh in if he thinks they're not doing it.

Re: Crazy Trumpers
My first instinct was ROTFL.
But, given that we now have elected officials that are in favor of having a dictator at the head of the Executive branch (as long as that person is the unmentioned), given they have control over state legislations and therefore have control over voting laws and how to carry out elections, all I can really do is cry.

Our Capitol is occupied.
National security authorities are being turned against American citizens.
The FBI is seizing cell phone data from lawmakers.
Americans' civil liberties are being stripped away under the massive power of the federal government.
All for political gain.

Re: Crazy Trumpers
Maybe he ought to think a little harder as to why they are seizing cell phone data (if they even are). Okay, just joking. It's Gaetz.

Re: Crazy Trumpers
I'm sure you all will find this hard to believe, but I don't think that is exactly true. The FBI seized phone records from cells that serviced the Capitol to, ya know, help identify the people who were in there. These records would obviously include lawmakers calls and pings as well. They (the FBI) claim that they can do this under the Stored Communications Act. Others disagree, and say that they (the FBI) has to identify devices they suspect, and then get records from the telecom companies about those specific devices, not just grab everything and go through it. AFAIK, no actual cell phones have been seized from lawmakers, but if someone has different information I'd love to hear it.Volkonski wrote: ↑Fri Feb 26, 2021 1:50 pm https://twitter.com/RepMattGaetz/status ... 1200804865

My husband said something earlier about cell phone data related to the tours some congressmen were giving, but I wasn't paying much attention to him so have no idea what he was talking about.
And Gaetz the fuckwit completely overlooks the fact that the National security authorities are turning against are the Americans who ATTACKED THE FUCKING CAPITOL. That's not turning against, that's responding to felonies.

Diamond and Silk Urge Military to Remove Biden, Say Otherwise U.S. Will Go 'to Hell in a Handbasket'
https://www.newsweek.com/diamond-silk-u ... et-1579213
Diamond and Silk, prominent supporters of former President Donald Trump, have called on the military to remove President Joe Biden from office, warning that not doing so would ensure that the U.S. goes to "hell in a handbasket."
Lynnette "Diamond" Hardaway and Rochelle "Silk" Richardson made their plea during a recent interview with David Brody on the conservative media network Real America's Voice. The duo suggested that the move was necessary to "get to the bottom of" the 2020 presidential election, which ended after Biden defeated Trump by 74 electoral votes and over 7 million votes nationally. Diamond and Silk have previously promoted evidence-free claims that Trump lost the election due to massive voter fraud.
"Let me tell you something, Biden will probably not even last four years," Hardaway said while Richardson could be heard uttering short exclamations in agreement, in a clip surfaced by Right Wing Watch, a project of the progressive group People For the American Way.
"I wish that the military would step in and take over, because we got three people that call themselves the most powerful people that supposed to be in charge," Hardaway continued. "Larry, Curly and Moe need to go somewhere and sit down, allow the military to take over from here."

Re: Crazy Trumpers
Here is what I'm trying to understand, and maybe it's because I'm mostly sane. Or take better drugs. Anyway....
Why do all these righteous, patriotic Americans want a military junta to take place? Do they realize that the military taking over, and a declaration of martial law, means no Constitutional Rights, for the most part? No Congress, no Supreme Court, no Executive office. Have they really thought this through? (Rhetorical questions, I suppose. We all know the answer.)

I think its more fundamental really. They want to change reality. Everyone does to a greater or lesser extent, and I could point out some stiff from the "Left" as well. But these guys want to build a Flat Earth.

Re: Crazy Trumpers
OK. So Eric Trump ranted about Facebook giving notice that DL2XIT's interview with Lara was NOT ALLOWED on the network. He was outraged! So, wanting the best for his supporters, posted a tweet about QUITTING Facebook if folks really cared about Donald.
Waited to see if any Crazy Trumpers would be stupid enough to buy-in.

Long story won't go into now, but there's a ridiculous RWNJ author with equally delusional followers. Gave him some advice, looking forward to seeing if he'll take it.

Re: Crazy Trumpers
I saw a modified trump flag when driving through a small town yesterday.. It had (expletive) Biden overwriting the usual trump message. The house and yard looked worse than the one shown above. I guess it goes to show that if you want to sell someone something, it's best to put clean clothes on first.
