Talk inside the White House about invoking the act has ebbed and flowed since Trump took office again in January, said the five people, who include the senior administration official, two people familiar with the discussions and two people close to the White House.

But the debate inside the administration has shifted recently, from whether it makes sense to invoke the act to more deeply exploring how and when it might be invoked, both people close to the White House said.

    I’m not sure how this is the dems fault, but okay.

    Trump is hitler stupid, and it’s the dems fault.

      There is no low the Republicans can stoop to that won’t result Murc’s Law being a thing.

      The Republicans could be at the shoving people onto trains phase and there will still be a certain type of individual trying to blame the Democrats for not stopping the Republicans…

        If a gang of criminals is causing trouble all over town and nothing is being done to stop them, I’m gonna be mad at the criminals and also mad at police, prosecutors, and judges for not doing their job and stopping these people

      The Dems put ‘decorum’ before sanity. The DOJ in the new admin should have gone hard after Trump and his henchmen on January 21 2021.

      Because the Dems allowed open treason to fester. Trump literally should have been executed for crimes against the state.

      Instead he was let off with zero repercussions and allowed to pardon the insurrectionist mob. Terrible consequences have ensued and will continue on.
