Summary
Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) sparked controversy with a fiery speech outside the Treasury Department, declaring, “We are at war!” and calling for the Senate to be shut down in response to Elon Musk’s access to federal payment systems.
Her remarks, applauded by some Democrats, drew backlash from Republicans, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who likened them to “a call for insurrection.”
Depends on who you ask. If its someone sane then no, but if it’s someone who is working with the current administration then the answer is yes.
I am frankly terrified at this insinuation and I think we will see some serious repercussions from this, on one side or the other. This feels like it will be used as an excuse by the Republicans to detain or even murder opposition.
The state has done that long before Trump… The US routinely arrests the opposition voices, on thin pretenses.
They’re going to do that anyway, with or without an excuse. Trump has openly talked about it.
Apparently there are protests planned at every US state capitol building today.
I really hope you are wrong.
I’d love to be wrong.
I can’t see any other purpose to purging the FBI of non-loyalists.
It doesn’t matter what the excuse is, it’s always been their end game. The time to organize is now.
That’s exactly why an insurrection is needed.
