From Facebook:

This is how democracy dies.
Not with a bang, but with a clause buried in a bill.

Buried in the latest House bill is a quiet little clause that would make it nearly impossible for federal courts to enforce their own rulings.

Read that again.

They want courts to give orders they can’t enforce.
Like calling 911 – and getting a dial tone.
Like installing a security system – and leaving it unplugged.

This isn’t about streamlining government.
This isn’t about the budget.
This is about power. Raw. Unchecked. Unrestrained.

And it's tailor-made for a certain twice-impeached, 34-times-convicted wannabe king.

You remember how Trump kept breaking the law and then saying, “So what?”
This bill makes “so what?” the law of the land.

It means injunctions (those court orders that protect our rights, stop deportations, halt discrimination, and block overreach) could just be ignored if there wasn’t a bond posted.
In other words, they become suggestions.

And here’s the kicker: courts almost never require bonds in civil rights cases.
Because, you know, justice isn’t supposed to be pay-to-play.

But now?
Now they want to change the rules. Retroactively.
So that even past court orders can be tossed in the trash.

Let’s stop pretending this is subtle.

This is a full-on power grab by people who are scared of accountability.
They want the courts to look like they still function –
but only when they’re serving the throne.

If your faith values justice.
If your politics value democracy.
If your spine still works…

It’s time to stand up.

Because once kings stop fearing the courts,
the people are the only ones left to fear.

Here’s what you can do:

The bill still has to pass the Senate.
That means there’s time to stop it – but we have to move now.

Even if your Senators have already made up their minds.
Call them anyway. Email them anyway. Be loud anyway.

Make it uncomfortable to support a bill that handcuffs the courts and hands the keys to a strongman.

Use this link to contact your Senators right now: 5calls.org
Click on “Oppose Cuts to Contempt of Court Enforcement in the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill.’” It’ll walk you through the rest.

Democracy doesn’t survive by staying polite.
It survives because we refuse to be ruled.
