Donald Trump is raging against the Supreme Court after it temporarily blocked his administration from using a centuries-old wartime law to fast-track migrant deportations. On Saturday, Trump ramped up his attacks by highlighting a plan to move “terrorists” near justices’ homes.

“The president should release these terrorists near the Chevy Chase Country Club, with daytime release,” former GOP staffer Mike Davis wrote online. Trump shared the post.

    Justices: “Hey, do you want to become our marshals and uphold our laws?”

    Terrorists: “Sure. Where do we get started?”

    Justices: “Start with breaking some ICE, ladies and gentlemen.”

      The court is already heavily tilted towards Trump, with at least three of them operating as a virtual rubber stamp to the President.

      Meanwhile, the remaining judges don’t particularly like or support one another. Roberts and ACB seems happy enough to throw Jackson, Kagan, and Sotomayor under the bus.

    I’m sure he’s just joking. I wish someone would fucking kill this prick already. See, I just did it too. I’m joking about someone blowing the president’s fucking head clean off. See how humor works in the US? I’m just following the president’s lead here.

      That’s funny. It reminds me of this joke about Donald Trump getting picked up by the cartels and then they stab him to death with screwdrivers, slowly, over a period of days, and then the footage ends up on LiveLeak or something? I can’t remember the whole thing, unfortunately. I think there was something about wild dogs fucking the holes, too? Man my memory sucks.

        Fun fact they actually foiled a plot on Obama where the guy was building some sort of microwave-based “death ray.” He was going to mount it inside a panel van.

          Well, I don’t mind making jokes because it’s basically “just” a giant taser hooked up to a massive pulsed power source. it shoots a wire at something, which then makes contact with ground and it dumps all the stored power through that wire, turning it to plasma and making lightning.

          that tower isn’t just to raise the turret up- that is the cap bank. Getting that thing anywhere near Trump would be a shocking display of incompetence. or complicity.

          also, I don’t have the resources or expertise to build it. lols.

            I looked up my example afterwards. It was actually x-ray based, so they wouldn’t actually need to expose the device for it to work, and it would have feasibly fit in a van.

            The two accomplices were also KKK members and they seemed more focused on killing random Muslims with it and going for Obama was more of an aspiration. But as delusional morons do, they overextended and got multiple undercover agents involved in their plot before they actually did any harm.

    I kind of wish he would do something like this so maybe, just maybe the court would start taking him seriously as the threat he is.

    No, don’t release the terrorists, please… Honestly though, even if they were full fledged terrorists, what does he think they are going to do if they just release them from custody near a judge’s house? Are they in any way motivated or equipped to go commit crimes against them? They aren’t homing pigeons you can deploy against your political enemies.

      Donald Trump is threatening a planned attack against Supreme Court Justices. He is planning to release people with instructions to cause harm. Basically, he will be deputizing prisoners, possibly in exchange to assassinate his political opponents for the prisoner’s freedom.

      A whisper of a murder for a pardon would be all it takes. He doesn’t even have to whisper though since it would be an official act and ok for the president to do.
