Funny...during the Trump admin and COVID we were constantly reminded that the POTUS has no such powers and that such emergency powers were at the Governor level.

"Funny...during the Trump admin and COVID we were constantly reminded that the POTUS has no such powers and that such emergency powers were at the Governor level."

Which is why you'll see California, Illinois, New York, Oregon, Washington State, Arizona, Hawaii, and *maybe* Wisconsin going along with it.

The rest of the states? Depends on how much of a spine the governors and legislatures are.

But it won't end well if it does come to pass.

“Start the damn revolution.”

It started a few years ago. The left is conducting the “revolution” while we desperately cling to tradition and Constitution.

Just reinstate the CONvid rules. Remember the claims that since travel was reduced the air was the cleanest in a hundred years? And I could see MT Pinatubo from my front yard here in Reno. Two lies, one stone. Joe the destroyer and his pals are on it. To them, 🖕

I have always been against a civil war as that would be the fastest way to destroy this country once and for all….unless there’s a great awakening then nothing will happen and it will get worse.

But now I’m seeing where this is headed and I’m tired of living like this…work is dead, everything is super expensive, people are arguing all the time and the media and government lies about everything. I’m ready….it ain’t getting any better, so let’s do this…the “bubba effect “ is about to kick in

Could be a tipping point. Depends on how many people say F this shiite and refuse to comply.

I believe the remedy for this is covered in paragraph .45 of section .308 of statute 5.56.

Biden needs a national emergency to allow him use of the National Preemptive Emergency Cellular Network, like they did in 2020. See-

An agreement with Obama's DoJ prevents public access to its workings or audits, reports, etc.

There is no “emergency” condition in the US Constitution that grant more powers of any kind.

We the People should declare a government emergency and remove this abomination of tyranny. If government can declare emergencies when they have no power to do so, then we can too!

Until November 2024 Biden will be at his most dangerous time for America.

Could be any time but I think it will be later this Fall, around the hysterical press releases from this year’s COP climate party. Maybe end of November.

"Are they stupid enough to try it?"

I don't think these commies are stupid, I think they have a plan and know exactly what their doing.

WE, on the other, have no plan at all. So, we just through our hands in the air and say, WHAT THE HELL'S WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLE..!

We better wise-up pretty soon and put our boots on, or we may find ourselves on a fast train to a slow death.. :(

Their inability to bribe/coopt President Trump and their current failure to damage him politically among the citizens paying attention, terrifies them. Their fear has unhinged them. I’m hopeful the lines to the gallows for all these commies stretches for miles, because there are a lot of them, pretending to belong to either political party.

Might have to cancel the election because of weather.

I just read a MSM article puzzling over Biden's lack of preparation for the upcoming campaign. My thought was because there will be no election.

And people wonder how stupid humans were to believe women were witches that they burned them at the stake.

Here we are again...stupid humans believing whatever they are told.
