Such action would have been unconstitutional and OBVIOUSLY TREASONOUS.

These GOPers are batshit crazy and very dangerous.

Thanks for posting this, Miss R.

And this is what scares me when the House comes under Republican leadership, these Reps have no regard for the rule of law, they will try anything including attempting to invoke Martial Law, to obtain power.

In the WH, thank goodness these Nazis cannot invoke Martial Law.

We cannot allow another trump type in the WH.

They obviously will try anything to obtain power - and to seek revenge on Democrats.

A governor in a state.

The Repuke governors would be the problem.. And a most dangerous one.

Yes, indeed, they should be voted out. All of them. But the South will never do it.

The more we learn, the more we realize about how much danger we were in, and it's not over since they now have a slight Congressional majority - with the same Reps who sent those messages.
