Thanks so much. I am loving Substack and hearing truth from former Trump insiders. We have got to prevent the election rigging ! AND not layoff Epstein files

So tired about punditry about Trump's failings. We know this already. Let's build a response, a Dem Plan 2026, so to speak. We need a book against authoritarianism. How can we use the Constitution/law to get these awful people out?

I fully support sending our National Guard, and whatever other armed forces it would take, into Washington D.C. to clean that town up. That city is truly as shameful as Trump says it is. The only thing is, The problem is NOT on the streets. It’s in the Government buildings.

The first place I would send them is The White House to arrest and detain the fugitive Donald Trump and his entire criminal organization, The Trump Family, for treason and other crimes against the United States of America and humanity.

Also the home of J. D. Vance to arrest him and his entire family, also for treason and crimes against humanity.

At the same time, arrest and detain the entire Cabinet of the Whitehouse and all their families and charge them with complicity in treasonous crimes against the United States of America.

At the same time, arrest and detain Mike Johnson, John Thune, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, and every other republican congressman and congress woman who supported Donald Trump simply because Trump said so. And their families. (Remember the guards at Aushwitz, “I was just following orders”.)

Then Supreme Court Justices Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Barret and Kavanaugh and families for criminal misconduct including defiling The Constitution of the United States.

Next, every ICE agent that wore masks, (and families), denoting the cowardice it took to detain and mistreat people simply on the basis of their race.

Then, without due process, split up all families, especially small children. Small children will be put into Family Services to be fostered out. Hopefully to be rehabilitated. Which, by the way, is more consideration than this regime afforded their victims. And all adults would be disappeared. Whatever that might mean.

By the way, all adults will be treated in the same manner as ICE and other law enforcement treated their victims. All this treatment will be for the expressed purpose of showing what that level of inhumanity feels like first hand.

And every member of law enforcement who refuses to comply.

Contrary to the propaganda that has been spread by this regime, WE THE PEOPLE do NOT want criminals and hateful people to run our country. We want COMPETENT, RESPONSIBLE AND COMPASSIONATE PEOPLE OF GOOD MORAL CHARACTER to run our government.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
