This is part of what the appeals court wrote in their decision not to rescind the lower court's order against trump deploying troops.

There is zero ambiguity here: Political opposition is not rebellion.
We'll see how fucked we are when they rule on that.
We've got reporters from coast to coast out in the field covering today's #NoKings protest!

Neshama is a volunteer with No Kings. Sheβs passing out free American flags purchased by the organizers (though many protesters clearly came with their own). βIβm trying to protect democracy in this country,β she told me.

Authoritarianism doesnβt arrive overnight, it creeps in while we stay silent.
The window to use our voice is closing.
