🇬🇧 1629 – King Charles I
Dismissed Parliament. Ruled alone.
Ignored the courts.
⚔️ Civil war broke out.
🪓 He lost his head—literally. #RuleOfLaw #DefendTheConstitution -

When a president ignores a court, it’s not “being strong.”
It’s how democracies die.
Here are 10 real times governments defied the courts—and what happened next.

Make no mistake: this is a test.
If these orders are allowed to stand, future presidents—of any party—could do the same.
Silence lawyers. Punish critics. Strip away civil liberties with the stroke of a pen.

27 senior U.S. officials from both parties filed a brief opposing these actions.
They called them “unthinkable” and “ultra vires”—beyond the bounds of lawful authority.
The kind of thing they never imagined seeing in a democracy.

In court, Trump’s lawyers argued the ban only applies to Congress—not the president.
This is radical and wrong. The executive can’t do what even Congress can’t do with his signature.
That would make the president a king. #DefendTheConstitution -

In fact, the only place in the Constitution where a power is banned twice is this one:“No Bill of Attainder…shall be passed.” (Art. I, Sec. 9 & 10)
The Framers knew the danger of letting any branch bypass the courts to punish citizens. #DefendTheConstitution -

These executive orders revoke security clearances, terminate federal contracts, and ban access to government buildings—without trial or due process.
They name people. They punish them.
That’s the definition of a bill of attainder.
And the Constitution forbids it. #DefendTheConstitution -

Trump is issuing executive orders that punish political enemies—by name.
Lawyers. Law firms. Even Chris Krebs, the cybersecurity official who defended the 2020 election.
This is illegal. This is authoritarian. And it’s happening right now.

Trump is issuing illegal executive orders to punish his enemies—targeting lawyers by name, canceling contracts, and banning access to government buildings.
This is unconstitutional. It’s a bill of attainder in all but name.
Tell Congress: Stop this abuse of power.

In 1773, Boston stood up to a tyrant who called himself king. Today, Boston did so again.

You know there's an issue with the president when a good protest sign is:
OBEY THE LAW

Beware the Ides of March
They tighten their grip, they silence the crowd,
They profit from war, they stand tall and proud.
But history whispers, the tyrants will fall—
For the people are many, and they are but small.No empire stands when the people arise,
No lies hold power when we open our eyes.
The Ides is a warning, a reckoning near—
We stand up now, or we bow down in fear.Resist. Expose. Reclaim.

@solownh @GottaLaff On grounds of his deeply disordered mind & his extreme criminal & destructive potential Trump should even be allowed to run for any public office.
Sociopathic enemies of the constitutional order cannot be entrusted with the duties & responsibilities of public office they would only abuse to inflict harm!Btw, it's not the first time that wannabe-Caligula Trump publicly alludes to his dream of being protected against the laws & accountability by presidential office for life.

@Callalily @omegaman That rhetorically violent Trump-post should be added to the records on his acts of incitement of violence & anti-constitutional acts.

@StephenRamirez "Nervous breakdowns"? You kidding me????
From Jan 20, 2017 to Jan 20, 2021 the United States had its first very own Caligula in Oval Office.
Do everything legal to make a sh*tty sequel impossible!

@wendinoakland We may remember, that Trump is a defendant in four lawsuits so far, charged with 91 counts so far.
He is the incorporation of what the Founders understood by unacceptable extreme misdemeanor, unworthy to hold any government or other public office & disqualifyingly refusing to take care, that the laws be faithfully executed.#RuleOfLaw #AccountabilityMatters #JusticeMatters #DefendTheConstitution #DefendDemocracy #DefendTheUnion #TakeCareClause #DisqualifyTrump #NationalSecurityThreat #EnemiesOfTheLaw #CareerCriminals #CareerFraudsters #Espionage #Treason

@kegill Allowing an aggressive enemy of the constitutional order of the United States to run for presidential office must be another feature of American exceptionalism, I guess.
