The process to impeach judges requires a two-thirds vote in the Senate, right?

So basically not happening that route.

They're likely to attempt other means, but those means won't have the notion of legality that impeachment has at least

You aint see nothing yet. Wait till the Trumps celebrates 20 years of absolute control over your country and then we'll talk. Americans chose fascism, explicitly.

I cant help but notice that those who claim to reject this are still Republicans who vote Republican and endorse Republicans.

I think using more words to describe what is happening would help. I'm not sure everyone really understands what fascism is. Maybe mix it up a little?

  • trump and musk are dictators
  • monarchy

Need to #'Muricanize it more

  • Tyranny
  • Redcoats
  • "That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." -Preamble to the US Declaration of Independence

That is a great way to support it, but will people take the time to link it or explain it?

Maybe the biggest problem is that anyone who would educate themselves on anything in the first place wouldn't be supporting fascism. So the people who need to read it most won't care. The only thing that will stop their support is if they're personally hurt, and even then.

Oh great, so the "co-equal" legislative is no longer being useless. It's being less than useless, actively undermining the judicial branch for the benefit of the executive.

Toe the line or walk the plank. Totally normal, right?
