It's not enough. Where are the leaders we need to oppose this? [1]

The initial tweet from The Tennessee Holler lays the groundwork: Maddow confronting Jeffries about the ongoing hostile attack on our government & institutions from within.
x Maddow tries to shake @RepJeffries into meeting the moment: "Policy doesn't feel like the main conversation… we are in the middle of a Ketamine-fueled middle of the night autocratic power grab rendering Congress irrelevant, making the rule of law an afterthought if not a joke." pic.twitter.com/pjVCUYfMmV — The Tennessee Holler (@TheTNHoller) February 25, 2025
Rep. Jeffries barely pushes back, his response unconvincing (to me, at least) and falling far short in strength, purpose, scope, and effectiveness.
Hey @RepJeffries - it's not enough. Not by a longshot. The damage being done to the rule of law, and the rapid destruction and blatant targeting of guardrails meant to rein in such abuse & corruption, are swiftly building toward a cataclysmic crescendo which we willr forever rue.
This, alone, should more than give you pause - it should terrify you. The implication and intent laid bare in the "quiet part" is almost gleefully delivered in proudly arrogant ignorance.
He said the quiet part out loud.
They have a plan they know is illegal & unConstitutional, which only the rule of law and a healthy democratic republic can oppose, so they are intentionally, blatantly, destroying those things. Unopposed.
Where the hell are the real leaders we need to face this monstrous threat?
Where do you see this going?
x Oh, it's worse than that. Shoot protestors? Deploy troops on American soil? Yes.
Remember this idiocy? "Why have nukes if we aren't going to use them"?
Nuke a hurricane, nuke a small nation, fire a nuclear a "warning shot" into the sea, or into space ('across their bow')... — Grey Hawk (@GreyHawk121) February 24, 2025
The window of opportunity is closing fast. The opportunity to act to prevent heinous acts of hateful, arrogant, catastrophically cataclysmic events wont last much longer — as the world itself begins to push back & resist, the pressure to act out in a panic of missed opportunity by the myopic & determined chaos crew will only accelerate the worst elements of their agenda.
WTF, people?
