@ProPublica If that actually happens, the America that I knew is gone.
@EndicottAuthor Isn't the America you lot used to know already long gone anyway, even if only partly?

@ProPublica
@EndicottAuthor @ProPublica it's been gone since the moment these lunatics weren't prosecuted after the January 6 insurrection/coup/putsch and a convicted criminal was allowed to become president.
@ProPublica Well that's not at all concerning. And definitely isn't exactly what he's said he's going to do.
@ProPublica
... and there it is ...

I've been waiting for Trump to make a move like this since he was sworn in.

@ProPublica

These people are usually called “golpistas”, coup plotters.

@ProPublica

No Kings March 28th at DC, Capital, White House, SCOTUS, DOJ AG, all of them HAVE TO GO!

@ProPublica There they are, out in the open. Nazis doing nazi shit. 🤢🤮
@ProPublica I was scrolling and thought that was Louis Theroux
