Ah yes, the party of law and order shows itself yet again to actually be the party of organized crime

If we let Trump on the ballot they’ll storm Capitol Buildings when he loses. At least now all they do is make phone calls!

How long will the FBI and CIA ignore these very obvious terrorists

@BeautifulMind@lemmy.world avatar

Only for so long as the venn diagram of FBI/CIA:MAGATs continues to have enough overlap that they’re in a position to investigate themselves and their buddies and find they did nothing wrong

ghostdoggtv ,

What are you talking about, that’s always been their plan is to ignore the terrorists when it’s their side doing it

reverendsteveii ,

well yeah, that’s gonna happen when you take a stand against the White Nationalist Terrorist Party

That sounds like a news station: tonight on WNTP AT 6

Is there a way to actually thank these justices for doing their job? Seems to me that all these people get is the shit and not much thanks.

MedicPigBabySaver ,

Find the court’s email. Send them a “ty”.

SendMePhotos ,

Yes, let’s do that. I’m busy right now (about to head into work) but hey if someone can point me in the direction, I’d love to show support.

alienanimals ,

It’s a good thing the NSA is tracking all phone calls! The people making threats have been found and punished. JK, the NSA didn’t do jack shit and the people making the threats are still “unknown”.

The NSA doesn’t spy on white men silly!

Of course it does. They just don’t react unless they’re saying the wrong thing.

They put out a statement 2 months after a shooting saying they had been monitoring the guy for 6 months

bradorsomething ,

Let’s be clear, the NSA doesn’t spy on americans, that’s illegal. Instead our allies spy on american and send the NSA the information. That’s legal.

Domestic terrorists threaten judges, after they ruled against domestic terrorists ringleader.

Empricorn ,

Threats of violence from MAGA extremists who want to gargle Trump’s balls!? That’s weird, these creatures are usually so rational…

LEDZeppelin ,

Which actually justifies why he should be barred from running for the office. Imagine what these people will do when they actually get in the position of power

DragonTypeWyvern ,

The law is what justifies his disbarment, but yes, they are indeed all domestic terrorists.

lolcatnip ,

It doesn’t legally justify his disqualification, but it certainly validates the wisdom of the law that does.

Masterblaster ,

god, i hope the entire midwest decides to form an armed insurrection. i fucking pray EVERYDAY that those stupid, pasty fucks will rise up with their petty arsenals. there is nothing i would love to see more than swarms of apache attack helicopters treating that entire area like a zombie horde.

No no, that's the outcome if black folks rise up. The magas are mostly white. They'll be gently escorted back to their homes.

Masterblaster ,

then it's up to us.

Ameripol ,

It’s not cool to generalize a whole region like that. You act as if the whole Midwest is a hive mind.

Masterblaster ,

if greater society recognized nuance, then we wouldn't need to make sweeping generalizations. also, you know that in a civil war type scenario, the government will be protecting the cities from the rural zombie hordes, right? calm down.

Crowfiend ,

Yeah, the ones that are saying not to carpet bomb entire regions based on overly broad statements and comparing people to zombies are the ones that need to calm down. Stay in school kid.

JJROKCZ ,

For one, Colorado isn’t the Midwest lol

For two, not all of us in the Midwest are fascists dreaming of setting up a handmaids tale type nation. A lot of us, especially in the cities, are decent people trying to get by in the land we were born in and will never make enough money to escape from even if we wanted to. I already left BFE and moved to a city, that’s as far as I want to go, I’ll keep voting as left as I can on the ballot to try and save my portion of the nation against their will and keep trying to explain how things could be better to anyone that will listen to

Masterblaster ,

i'm sure your measured words will make a difference /s

Oh for Ra’s is the GQP full of sheep.

Rapidcreek ,

The voters have already decided this issue. That’s why there’s an Amendment. All arguments belong at the Supreme Court, no other place.

jballs ,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

I was reading the ruling out of the Colorado Supreme Court, and the dissent was interesting to me. One of the dissenting judges claimed that the courts shouldn’t be deciding this, and it should be resolved through legislation instead. Legislation… as in the 14th Amendment where we decided this already?

Rapidcreek ,

This argument is as wrong as it is common.

lolcatnip ,

I don’t think amendments are considered legislation per se. Unless the judge is just ignorant of legal vocabulary.

It’s a dumb argument, though, and probably made in bad faith. Any statute passed by Congress would either be redundant, or it would likely be a bill of attainder.

@theodewere@kbin.social avatar

of course they're being threatened, all Trump supporters are cowards and criminals

silverbax ,

Track em down and lock em up. They hate America and want to kill anyone who supports our democracy.

They’re also stupid enough to be terrorists who announce their attacks ahead of time.

    I gotchu, Euro-bro:

    COLORADO, USA — The Colorado Supreme Court Justices who ruled Donald Trump is an insurrectionist who should be barred from the ballot are now receiving a flood of violent threats on social media, according to a 45-page report cited by NBC News.

    Advance Democracy, a non-partisan, nonprofit research group, tracked “significant violent rhetoric” since yesterday’s court decision.

    The group found social media users threatening to kill the justices on Colorado’s highest court and Democrats – some users posting the justices’ phone numbers and addresses to their offices.

    The group conducts public interest research and found the “violent rhetoric” was often found in direct response to posts about the court’s ruling made by Trump on his platform Truth Social.

    The social media platforms X, Patriots.win, Telegram, 8kun, Gab, Gettr, 4chan and Truth Social were monitored by the group for content.

    “Civil War” and “Insurrection” were found to be trending on X by the group. They also found that the top two posts include the Colorado court’s decision and on Truth Social, “” is trending.

    Some of the violent rhetoric on the social media sites include, “ARM UP. STOCKPILE HOLLOWPOINTS. SHOOT EVERY SINGLE DEMOKKKRAT ON SIGHT. WIPE THEM ALL OUT,” and “If you live in Colorado, do what the founding fathers ACTUALLY would want. Grab your rifles and some rope.”

    The group noted that Trump has posted 22 times about the court ruling on Truth Social where “some users responded directly to Trump’s posts with violent rhetoric and calls for violence, including the hanging of the Colorado Supreme Court justices.”

    The group’s president, Daniel J. Jones, said when they compiled the report the consistency of the violent threats and rhetoric was especially concerning.

    He told NBC News, "The normalization of this type of violent rhetoric — and lack of remedial action by social media entities — is cause for significant concern. Trump’s statements, which have sought to delegitimize and politicize the actions of the courts, is serving as a key driver of the violent rhetoric. Political leaders on both sides of the political aisle need to speak out against these calls for violence, and social media platforms need to reassess their role in hosting and promoting this rhetoric.”

    The Colorado court’s decision to ban the former president from the ballot doesn’t kick in until the day before primary ballots are printed and won’t happen if the U.S. Supreme Court takes up the case first.

    The Trump campaign said Tuesday night they planned to quickly appeal the decision.

    The Colorado Republican Party said if Trump is knocked off the primary ballot they plan to cancel the primary altogether.

    “If they’re able to successfully remove Donald Trump from the ballot, for example, or they’re successfully able to keep engaging in some of the blatant election-fraud type behavior that they’ve done, then, pretty soon you’re not going to be able to resolve your differences through the ballot box,” said Colorado GOP Chair Dave Williams on the Liberty Roundtable Podcast. “It will be done, you know, in a civil war, and we don’t want that, no one wants a civil war. I think most of us are capable of figuring out ways to avoid those things, but there’s only so much you can do if those who are in power, keep undermining free and fair elections.”

    Thanks a million!
