As we roll into the long Easter weekend, is April 20th a concern?

I am not an American but I keep seeing April 20th as a date for potential martial law. What is going on in your country?

That’s the day Trump goes after all the pothead losers, once and for all.

Only if there is violence at the protests tomorrow, per FB lol.

ON APRIL 19, 2025
Extremist groups could provoke violence at protests to justify martial law the next day.
Here's what to watch for:

Hmmmm, I saw more concern for this before April 5th and yet the protests across the country were HUGE and nonviolent - and there was no need for or any indication of an over the top response.

I don't think this is a moment to worry or anticipate what might happen. Our Constitution is being defiled. Congress has abdicated all responsibility. The Supreme Court is being ignored.

The so-call red lines have been crossed.

What are we waiting for? We must peacefully show our resistance to Trump.

Who’s protesting on Easter weekend?

This all stems from the EO Trump signed in January declaring a national emergency at the southern U.S. border

The theory is trump will invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 on April 20, 2025, followed by him declaring martial law. (The Insurrection Act grants U.S. presidents the power to deploy the military into states for civilian law enforcement.)

He could theoretically do this if the "emergency" isn't solved after 90 days.

Even a month ago, I woild have said conspiracy rumor unthinkable.
Now...who knows?

You can't do anything about it so you might as well not worry about it. Que sera sera, or whatever.

I’m not concerned another leftist will firebomb a governor’s home or attempt to assassinate Trump no.

What protests are this weekend?

They should rethink them. Do it in two weeks after the easter season. If I have to listen to another MAGA saying the left is anti-Christian while they allow all sorts of inhumane behavior I will scream.

Let MAGA create chaos on Easter. Fine with me to showcase the hypocrites they are.

You know that people like that have been abandoned by their children long ago.

Yes, it’s always a concern because if illegal drugs and casual attitudes towards using drugs. I never feel safe that day. Too many people using bad judgement.
