You mean Robert “Conservative Traitor” Mueller, right?

The only Mueller I remember was the one who entered the public spotlight in the first place by being nominated for SCOTUS specifically because he was so conservative that Obama figured not even Mitch McConnel could find an excuse to object to him.

That’s already what this is.

Those weren’t progressives. Those were right-wing concern trolls cosplaying as leftists.

Or Gamergate, for that matter.

Not radioactive enough, and way too tropical to be a suitable punishment. My vote would be the South Sandwich Islands, but I’d also accept St. Helena (where they sent Napoleon) if marooning them on an uninhabited polar island is considered too “inhumane” or something.

What I’m hearing is that the politicians need to be made even more scared of the rest of us.

Did Reagan threaten war with NATO?

There have been a few others, but we don’t remember them because they failed.

Fuck, now I’m getting flashbacks about Net Neutrality.

You’re 100% right on the mechanics of it, but only 90% right overall. There is one small thing you might not be considering: Republicans might be more supportive of removing an “incapacitated” president than impeaching a tyrannical one because of the less damaging connotation of it.

Is there a word for typoing a different homophone even though you knew damn well which one was correct?

Anyway, my point was, waiting for him to die of old age is not a solution. Positive action must be taken to get rid of him.

Okay, so Schumer is a quisling, which we already knew. Who else is participating in his anti-American conspiracy?

I want names not only of elected officials themselves, but also of the party staffers who manage the information/access and are choosing to feed this excrement to them.

What does “memo” mean in this context, in the sense of it being different from any other random letter from a constituent to a politician? Was it given some sort of preferential treatment? Is it bypassing aides and landing directly in the inboxes of the politicians themselves? Is it being distributed by the party itself? Is it being endorsed by high-ranking party members? Is it being pushed as policy by the party whip?

Never mind the corporate lobbyist who is obviously a lost cause; I want to know exactly who the fucking quislings are within the party so that they can be forcefully ejected.

The real evil behind the throne is 40 years old.

Yeah, but an “uppity n-word” made fun of him once.

That’s the pettiest shit I’ve ever read.

Bullies need to be fucking punched in the face, the sooner the better. Trying to be cautious and not overreact only encourages them to escalate.

There is no such thing as “too early” when retaliating against a bully.

Yes, they’re going to do something even if we don’t react. But no, it’s not necessarily martial law. I feel like people aren’t understanding what “plausible” martial law and the Insurrection Act invocation will really mean. It can and will get unimaginably worse, for not just those who choose it, but for millions of innocent people. It’s possible we can’t avoid that, eventually, but the rational choice is certainly to do what we can to avoid it.

No, it’s not necessarily the rational choice. Not if, for example, delaying to act causes us to lose in the long run, e.g. by giving the fascists more time to shift that Overton window slowly enough. In fact, you yourself acknowledge that in another part of your comment: that we have a limited window of opportunity before hypernormalization kicks in, and we’d better not squander it.

Death sentence seems quite called for in a country that uses it regularly.

Or even one that doesn’t. If any crime deserves to be a capital offense, it’s shit like this.
