    This weekend I’m stocking up on portable phone chargers, warm clothes, & gear needed for when we take the streets. I’m concerned the assault on the rule of law is coming over the holidays when we’re distracted. It‘ll be a defining moment for the Republic.https://twitter.com/waltshaub/status/941714545747382272 …

        This tweet apparently triggered the tiki torch crowd. My theory is people with violent tendencies will hear violence in the language of peaceful protest. But you literally have to agree to the policy of nonviolence and complying with all law enforcement orders to sign up, so...

        It’s truly sad that you believe the other half of the country is your enemy. You have been deceived.

        You’re misreading the tweet. Nobody’s calling anyone an enemy. It’s a peaceful march. Not sure why that threatens you. But, then again, I’m not sure why Mueller threatens you, unless you think POTUS has something to hide.

        Because your op doesn't say "Take TO the streets" it says "Take the streets". It reads like you're planning a revolution with a phone charger and warm clothes.

        That’s absurd. What do you think the big conspiracy is? To mitten people to death? It’s literally a retweet notice of singing up for a peaceful protest. The thing says you have to agree to comply with all law enforcement orders and be nonviolent. Hardly any kind of insurrection.

        No, not a bot😊. Not threatened by peaceful protest. I’m sensing from you Mueller has an obligation to find Trump “guilty” or the world comes to end. Stay warm out there folks! Merry Christmas!

        Assuming this is serious and not in anyway tongue in cheek. I’m a conservative attorney but I’ve already resolved that my Attorneys Oath requires me to speak up publically if it comes to this extreme. Not relishing the thought.

        True enough. But it is what I think about as I sit at my desk. I raised my hand and swore to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Georgia. So help me God”. Been thinking what that means in these times.

        Agreed. And plan to. Just know it’s not easy. Could cost friends and clients where I live. I run a law office that provides for my wife and three kids plus several employees and their families.

        Not sure I get your point. Do you mean that you’re convinced he won’t go after Mueller or that objecting to Mueller’s firing won’t do any good?
