    Well, everyone that’s put up a similar stance has been physically removed from their offices and had their access to resources required to do their jobs revoked.

    What’s gonna make this one any different?

    Don’t get me wrong, I support it; I just don’t expect it to be effective.

      Then don’t make it easy for them. Make them have to take the time to revoke everything rather than just letting them go on to the next person

      Resistance doesn’t mean winning every fight, but to delay, delay, delay everywhere you can. The more time they have to spend putting up with you is less time they can spend messing with other people who can fight back during that whole time

        Fair enough.

        I’m not saying she or others should lay down and let it happen; I’m mostly just wondering what’s different about this situation. She hasn’t been marched out yet (presumably). How come?

        Again; I support it, I’m just not expecting much.

        It doesn’t seem like she’s been frog marched out of the building, yet. How come, what’s different here? Public perception? Physical resistance from others? Something else?

        Clearly she’s doing something right; I just wonder what’s protecting her.

          I think someone needs to call France and have them come pick up the Statue of Liberty because we are no longer the land of the free. Something as dumb as that, speaks volumes to the pride of the people who make their kids pledge daily to a land they swore was free but the executive branch is actively not executing the laws created by the legislature (our representatives). Meaning we are a dictatorship, and not free at all. Liberty is dead

          Edit: fixed it for us

          “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Dictatorship for which it stands, one Nation Sundered and Forced under God, indivisible, without liberty nor justice for all.”

        The directors and pretty much all of the security team at the Office of Personal Management come to mind.
