During a Tuesday hearing at the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, the DOJ urged a three-judge panel to issue an emergency stay of a lower court order and allow the Trump administration’s deployment of the California National Guard to continue in Los Angeles — going so far as to argue a president’s federalization of militia can’t be second-guessed by the courts, even if the chief executive mobilized forces from all 50 states and Washington, D.C., simultaneously.

    democrats worship the status quo and civility.

    I like those things. Those are both better than fascism. Wish the dumbfucks that abstained from voting or voted 3rd party could understand that. With how much you’re pushing back and whining, I’m assuming you’re one of those dumbfucks.

    Spoiler Alert: The 3rd party candidate with the most votes was magician Jill Stein, who magically appears right before every election, then magically disappears again afterwards. She got a whopping HALF OF A SINGLE PERCENT of the total votes cast.

    So unless you’re braindead, you’d realize that America is nowhere near being over this 2-party thing. So voting 3rd party is FUUUUUUUUCKING STUPID, especially when one of the options is a FUCKING FASCIST.

    You want more parties? Get off your fucking ass and help one start winning local/state elections so they can start actually having less than zero members in Congress so they can maybe one day run a presidential candidate that can win.

      The status quo is fascism. Civility with fascists is fascism. Your team gives the impression that as long as the bad stuff happens overseas or in poor neighborhoods, and you aren’t forced to look at it, then all is right with the world. You’re upset because a few million people refuse to cosign terror and genocide, while I’m upset that hundreds of millions are so willing.
