Should be grounds for removal from that position
At the bare minimum
Deeply investigated for treason.
How dare you demand I perform my public duties!
Just like the marriage license deniers. These people are hostile to the roles they've been put in. Get em out of there.
If I just flat out refused to do my job, I would be immediately fired and replaced. Same rules apply here.
Same rules SHOULD apply here, but absolutely do not.
When you build the rule of law within your institutions around the honor system, then those without honor will invariably monopolize the system.
All laws should be vetted under the guidelines in Machiavelli’s The Prince
Just do your fucking job lady.
if you worked at McDonald's and said "I won't put the fries in the bag if I don't feel like it" you would be fired in an instant.
but if you're willing to overthrow democracy, hmmm idk maybe please do your job? would you do it if we asked nicely? pwetty pwease?
Lock them all up
Me: Hey, boss. I'm going to appeal that thing you told me to do.
Boss: Well, firing you might seem politically partisan, so I guess I'll have to let it go.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
