Trump will defy because “the courts can't enforce their own orders.” “At the end of the day, they don't have soldiers. They don't have police. They do not have the mechanisms by which you enforce court orders, which sometimes involve throwing people who are disobeying court orders into jail.”

The president is trying to break the Constitution and daring any part of the US government to act against him. Authoritarians often defy courts this way. *But in our case, Congress and the courts can still act.* No secret police or general would arrest them. Singly or in concert, they should act.

This deeply disappointing coming from you. It's laughably ignorant. What exactly do you expect the out of power party to do?! This impulse to blame Democrats in every circumstance must be studied.

It didn't have to be Pete Hegseth. There are qualified people for the job. Crippling our Department Of Defense with an incompetent drunk was a choice by Trump and the Republicans. It did not have to be this way.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Beautiful Blossom Building
Restaurāns 1221, an upscale Latvian taverna, spread over three floors of a narrow Old Riga building, that offers inventive European & nouvelle Latvian a la carte cuisine.
Nestled between a red house on the left and a green/pink house on the right is the beautiful blue house of the 1221 restaurant. Its facade is painted with white flowers on green ranks and two cows facing each other that are on the left and right side of the painted sign with the restaurant’s name. There’s a slim wooden door on the right side of the building’s ground floor, followed by two lattice windows and two stumps with flower pots on them are standing right between the windows on the pavement, the street is plastered with little square stones.
The first floor has three lattice windows and then comes the roof with a little jutty (hope it’s the right word!).
The building on the left side is a similar building, while the green/pink house is taller.
