The fact that the riots have only just started, and for something that has been going on for months, says a lot about the citizens of the US. I have no faith in any of you.

People really don't want to believe that there is no electoral solution anymore. People really don't want to believe that it's too late to save the illusion of peace any longer. This is a late af wake up call to how incredibly fucked we are, and many people will still hit snooze.
For what it's worth, speech doesn't mean as much anymore, as we now live in a time where violence is the dominant form of power. For this reason, peaceful protests will do little, and mass riots can easily help the oppressors escalate even further. Fighting the incredibly militarized federal and local governments is practically untenable. Over half a century of cowardly libs empowering anti-riot forces has made this a nightmare scenario for resistance.
There is so little recourse at this point that the best thing we can do is prioritize not dying so we can outlive Trump's reign. We'll need luck and cooperation to survive the infectious diseases, natural disasters, and economic devastation that the state will do less than nothing to mitigate. It's up to us to support each other, because there is no social contract left.

So his loop hole is when a judge says the government can't send someone to Country A to be tortured, send them to Country B to be tortured with out asking a judge.
Weird, why would he want to do that.
Wants excuse for super powers, try no to give him that
The U.S. has been doing stuff like this for a while in the war against terrorism, e.g. transporting suspects to other countries where they can be tortured for information.
The War Against Terrorism, also known as T.W.A.T., but most people don't like to talk about such vulgar things.
As long as the fascist fuck gets to test it out first...
Enough fucking around. CWII now.
What are you doing about it? I ask you because I ask myself regularly.
its not like they dont do it anyways, as long as it isnt leaked by people like snowden and Manning.
