The point is this: if Trump wins his assault on our laws, no laws will matter, except insofar as they are weaponized against the poorest and most vulnerable members of society. We risk an anti moral regression into lawlessness.
This is way beyond culture wars;
this is abuse of all of US. #HybridWar #LawlessGOP #NoMoreLies đşđ¸

The One-Mile Rule: Texasâ Unwritten & Arbitrary Policy Protects Big Polluters from Citizen Complaints The DOJ & EPA must step up, mitigating the #ClimateCrisis needs to be prioritized: The policy has been denounced in lawsuits & petitions, but the TCEQ denies that it exists.

GOP SCJ's truly believe they're above the law, & possibly 'chosen by God': Justice Alito tells the WSJ that Congress has no business policing SCOTUS.

The #GOPDeathCult has angered (& many are armed bc Rs advocated it) many citizens to distrust the govt. Paying taxes is the law, but many Republicans have convinced taxpayers that the IRS shouldn't ensure that all Americans pay their fair share or audit them.

Abbottâs tweet is the clearest example of the #LawlessGOP & the double standard the majority of Republican elected officials use to justify their viewpoint. #TFG weaponized the DOJ throughout his presidency. President Biden upholds the law. Governor Abbott was the Texas AG -he knows that #TFG is a traitor. The media must call out Republicans for their lies: âItâs an ugly day for democracy when a sitting US President running for re-election uses the DOJ to indict and arrest his leading opponent.â
Youngkin is a likely pres. cand. He's not a moderate: "These charges are unprecedented & itâs a sad day for our country, esp. in light of what clearly appears to be a 2-tiered justice system where some are selectively prosecuted, & others are not. Parents in VA know firsthand what itâs like to be targeted by pol motivated actions. Regardless of your party, this undermines faith in our judicial system at exactly the time when we should be working to restore that trust." Another #LawlessGOP member
#LawlessGOP Instead of commending the rule of law, integrity of the DOJ & INDEP SC...

The tattered notion that Rs must have any respect for the FBIâs independence has disintegrated completely. Now every FBI DIR: eminently fireable. That the FBI DIR must be a loyal MAGA apparatchik -now every bit as much party dogma as âBorder weakâ or âTaxes bad.
