    So you don’t believe rule of law is important?

    The Supreme Court is compromised. The Federal courts are partially in the hands of MAGA placeholders. Trump is attempting to nullify the constitution by executive order. There is no rule of law.

    It’s justice outside the formal system or no justice at all. Standing by idly and allowing elite impunity is not an acceptable approach.

      The thing is if you want to maintain rule of law then you need to follow those rules. You can’t just decide to ignore it when you want to but then pretend you have any legitimacy. That would make you no different than any other dictator.

          They go criminal we also act criminally isn’t a good path to go down.

          Why are so many people in this thread advocating extra judicial action when many/most of us are complaining about the GOP doing the same?
