Read a good biography of <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/andrewjackson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#andrewjackson</a> something like Meacham’s American Lion.

AnarchoNinaAnalyzesOver the past month and a half, I've encountered a lot of Very Serious PeopleTM in my life, and on my TV, who seem to think that the best way to counteract Trump's fascist regime as it tears everything apart and starts trying to disappear political prisoners, is to "not take the bait" and wait for the courts to handle it. "We are still a nation of laws" these folks have assured me, even though I've spent the past four decades watching US presidents break the law in ways that are more acceptable to Pig Empire society than Trump does. Throughout that time, my question has always been "well what are you gonna do when he just ignores the law? I mean it's not like you can send the local sheriff to evict him from the White House, and the GOP is extremely unlikely to help their inept opposition to impeach him." To the degree that I've been able to actually ask that question in person, I have yet to receive a reasonable reply; which is unfortunate, because completely ignoring the courts appears to be precisely what Downmarket Mussolini and his merry gang of shitposting nazi freaks are doing:<a href="https://archive.ph/U97c7" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.ph/U97c7</a>Trump Officials Are Pretending A Judge Didn't Bar His Anti-Diversity Orders"In at least one case, the senior executive says, a U.S. official told the international organization that they knew about the court injunction and what it meant, but that the senior ranks of the Trump administration had explicitly instructed staff to enforce Trump’s executive orders, to ignore the court’s injunction, and to pressure partner organizations if need be. This official also said that if the nonprofit’s leaders didn’t sign the new paperwork, they’d risk having their funding quickly terminated by the Trump administration, per the senior executive.“The Trump administration is daring the courts in the United States to do something about this, and thus far, I don’t think most people in America understand that what’s at risk is the fundamental basis that there is fairness and justice and rule of law in the United States,” says the senior executive. “And whatever you think of DEI, we should all agree that running the government based on the rule of law is a requirement. The playbook that is being used in the U.S. is not new; we’ve seen it in country after country where there’s been an increase in authoritarianism. To see it in the modern United States itself is what’s new and disturbing.”The other two sources, one of whom is a Trump appointee, tell Rolling Stone that the directive to comply with Trump’s DEI orders, despite what the judge said, has gone out to an array of nonprofit organizations and partners around the world."This is kind of a messy article that spends a lot of words going over the timeline of the Trump administration's attempts to play dumb about what the judge's injunction actually blocks in terms of Trump's anti-diversity executive orders, but the key takeaway isn't that complex. Trump has knowingly, and directly ordered his administration to ignore the injunction and continue enforcing his anti-diversity orders both inside the government and towards outside contractors and partners. This is not speculative, several sources *inside* the Trump administration have confirmed that the regime knows what the injunction means, and government employees are being ordered to simply ignore the ruling. Borrowing a page from noted genocidal racist U.S. president Andrew Jackson, Trump has effectively declared "Adam Abelson has made his decision; now let him enforce it."Should this come as a surprise to anyone in the American establishment "opposition?" Well, probably not, because as the article notes Trump and his minions have more or less been actively broadcasting their intentions to ignore court orders designed to block their fascist agenda:"The episode is part of a broader pattern in which the second Trump administration has operated under the impression that judges’ orders and rulings don’t much matter. Vice President J.D. Vance has publicly argued that Trump can ignore judges’ orders, asserting: “Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.” Trump, for his part, has threatened to “look at” judges who rule against Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Over Presidents Day weekend, Trump admitted he thinks he can break any law he wants to — so long as he can loosely define doing so as part of his mission to “save” the country."Folks, like I've been telling you for a while, the cavalry ain't coming. If a GOP-controlled government won't impeach him, and the regime won't obey court orders, nothing short of an uprising is stopping these nazis anytime soon; no matter HOW much that scares an "opposition" establishment that hates people power.<a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fascism</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Courts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Courts</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DEI</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Impeachment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Impeachment</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GOP</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Musk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Musk</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ExecutiveOrder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ExecutiveOrder</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/JDVance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JDVance</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AndrewJackson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AndrewJackson</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PorkReich" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PorkReich</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AdamAbelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AdamAbelson</a>

plague-of-grackles 😷🍉🐈‍⬛Back in the 1830s, President Jackson (a curse upon his vile memory) ordered the removal of the <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Tsalagi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Tsalagi</a>/ <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Cherokee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cherokee</a> in north Georgia and neighboring states so the settlers could get the gold underneath them. Chief Justice Marshall issued an injunction. The President replied “Mr Marshall has made his ruling, now let him enforce it.” Most of the Tsalagi were death-marched to Oklahoma.Same thing is happening now, but to everyone this time, not just to the Native population. There’s no legal recourse; this is how USA institutions are set up. A president with an allied congress basically has free rein. Some of the Tsalagi went up into the Great Smoky Mountains. They’re still there.(Please feel free to correct me on the details here. Most of this is drawn from memory.)<a href="https://toot.cat/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/USAHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USAHistory</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/USAPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USAPolitics</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/AndrewJackson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AndrewJackson</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/JohnMarshall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JohnMarshall</a>
