pretty clear evidence that republicans in the US losing any election going forward are going to always beg for a coup if they lose. lots of people will have to go to jail

Yeah they won't though, at any rate not the ringleaders. AGAIN. bsky.app/profile/idio...

Reminder that a shitload of GOP Congresspeople were implicated as ringleaders in the GOP-driven Jan 6 coup attempt. Then Biden left Trump's GOP FBI director Wray in charge, installed GOP boy Garland as AG, and then those two cleared all the ringleaders with testimony of a far right radical nut job.

This type of response from the US was absolutely standard for many years and was carried out as policy in Latin America with numerous coups, propping up of vicious dictators, etc. He's just a bit retro basically.

Pack the SCOTUS after 2029 and go after Brandenburg so Congress can pass legislation that prohibits speech that attacks or attempts to delegitimize democracy.

George Santos is lucky that no one takes him seriously anymore. He doesn't seem like he's the type of guy who is willing to pay for security and he isn't getting any at the governments expense

There needs to be some kind of international body to arrest people for these kinds of crimes. You should not be able to do a coup in another country and be totally fine because you do not live there.

(not sure if this is sarcastic or not, but just in case) There is, it's just that the official, bipartisanly passed law (not policy, actual law) of the united states is that if you try to arrest usians for war crimes, we'll war crime you. (this is under the ICC jurisdiction)

If this nightmare ever comes to an end, we need to repurpose ICE detention centers for right wing politicians and their die hard supporters.

Oh yeah he is. He was on this season of “Special Forces” and was eliminated by episode 2 or 3. Actually he failed physical challenges. Even mentioned future desire to return to an elected position. Even praised Trump for pardoning him to the producers. Yep, still a POS he is.

If you want to see how the election went: apuracaoaberta.com.br This is an opensource website that called the election when it was at 20.4%, these guys vert precise about it, sorry its portuguese only, will have to translate with the webpage function.

Is he that Brazilian deputy that run as a trans representative, got "bored", migrate to the US of A and ran as "Ex-LGBT" to trick people (mostly Republicans), then made the most fraudulent bribery ever and was pardoned by Trump after being caught ?

That is pretty simple. You launch them into space. Even if they get pardoned, it's not like they have any way to get back. Once something has escape velocity it just keeps going forever.

We already have those, they’re very small and come out the end of nifty metal tubes and if you apply them to just the right spot the person becomes pardon-proof

Only in the republican world Is George Santos still relevant...why ? Because Republicans ALWAYS make heroes out of their criminals Because crime and treason...is what they stand for The GOP led CSA rises.

I hate to be a downer, but what in the last 50 years makes you think that the Democrats will actually prosecute Republican malfeasance if they get power again?

I am very worried about the upcoming state of affairs in Texas, where Ken Paxton still appears to be behind. Particularly given how invested Elon Musk is in Paxton winning.

What, and put the same fascist regime in charge like in Venezuela? Ya think Santos here realizes that Venezuela was only about personally enriching Trump and those around him, nothing else?

Hopefully, there will be a LARGE number of "detention" camps that Republicans built and gleefully filled with the criteria using exceedingly discriminatory, and illegal practices. Retributive justice can be a bitch.

We need to suspend double jeopardy in order to make sure all of those fuckers who got pardoned for participating in January 6th fucking rot in jail.
