I doubt the Judicial and Legislative arms will achieve anything without citizen support. Organised civil disobedience anyone? Smaller scale and local, make it easier for more people to take part and it will help to build networks. See below for Amnesty International’s playbook.

The world seems to have forgotten that, until two years ago, Netanyahu’s long-term policy was to treat Hamas as a partner, at the expense of Abbas and Palestinian statehood.

For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in our faces
The premier's policy of treating the terror group as a partner, at the expense of Abbas and Palestinian statehood, has resulted in wounds that will take Israel years to heal from

While the United States has plenty of real problems to deal with, Trump is ignoring them to manufacture fake emergencies. Why? He wants more power — and in the process, he’s subjecting millions to real harm. America’s actual national emergency is Donald J. Trump.

You’re a fool if you think the GOP won’t roll this out: In the 1857 Dred Scott v. Sandford Supreme Court case, the court ruled that enslaved people, including Dred Scott, and their descendants were not and could never be citizens of the United States, thus lacking the right to sue in federal court.

Most recently ICE arrested academics and students with valid visas. Next they arrested residents. They also detained a US citizen who was carrying proof of his US citizenship. As a result the UN in New York is advising all staff to carry passports showing their US visa.

I mean... holy shit.
From Rasmus Jarlow, Danish politician: "I don't know if there is a kill switch in the F35's or not. We obviously can not take your word for it.

As one of the decision makers behind Denmark's purchase of F35's, I regret it.

The USA can certainly disable the planes by simple stopping the supply of spare parts. They want to strengthen Russia and weaken Europa and are showing that they are willing to do tremendous damage to peaceful and loyal allies like Canada just because they insist on existing as a country.

I can easily imagine a situation where the USA will demand Greenland from Denmark and will threaten to deactivate our weapons and let Russia attack us when we refuse (which we will even in that situation).

Therefore, buying American weapons is a security risk that we can not run. We will make enormous investments in air defence, fighter jets, artillery and other weapons in the coming years, and we must avoid American weapons if at all possible.

I encourage our allies and friends to do the same."
