From MSN:
Representative Randy Fine (R-FL) has sparked controversy by advocating for the repeal of the 22nd Amendment, which limits U.S. presidents to two terms, citing President Donald Trump’s role in brokering a Gaza peace agreement as justification for extending his presidency. A bipartisan coalition of lawmakers introduced a resolution denouncing Fine’s proposal as a danger to democratic norms, escalating the debate. Amending the Constitution would require a two-thirds vote in Congress and ratification by three-quarters of state legislatures, a formidable hurdle.
Is this a joke? Congressional Republican Trump sycophant is suggesting that the president’s bid for a third term should be done legally, even though the last few years have brought a nonstop onslaught of grossly illegal acts: the storming of the Capitol, numerous other attempts to overthrow the U.S. federal government by overturning the 2020 election, stealing top-secret government documents, an adjudicated rape, the 34 counts of business fraud on which Trump was convicted, current-day violations of posse comitatus, the execution of unconvicted Venezuelan people on ocean-going ships, and the bulldozing the East Wing of the White House.
The man’s life is one big, ongoing crime; let’s be honest here.
It’s weird that no one talks about this anymore (did we talk about it at all?), but how likely is it that the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in which he was supposedly hit in the ear by a round from an AR-15 didn’t leave a scar? Not even a scratch?
Why can’t some teenage cub reporter follow this down and show that the likelihood of this actually happening is like rolling a six on a die 1000 times in a row?
According to Trump’s head of Homeland Security, we, the American people, have two choices: stay silent against ICE agents’ grossly illegal and sometimes lethal violence against innocent people, or face “more bloodshed.”
This is what fascism looks like.
Yet, too many Americans are children or grandchildren of our brave ancestors who risked (or gave) their lives to defeat Hitler. I’m betting against Trump and the despicable people he’s nominated to top positions in his administration.
While human civilization is far from perfect, most of the world’s people are kind and decent. Sure, there are rogue countries led by the most horrific dictators imaginable, yet all but one of the developed nations on Earth support their citizens with universal healthcare.
Of all the countries that played in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the United States is the only one that lets its people go through bankruptcies and die of treatable diseases because they can’t afford health insurance.
Civil?
