#POTROK
Can you imagine Koreans if a POTROK did even 10% of what Trump has done? Americans are comatose in comparison.
Here is footage I took where you can hear citizens calling for the PPP lawmakers to come back and vote.

PotRoK Yoon Suk Yeol is refusing to resign after failing to coup himself.

Suk Yeol insists that he did nothing wrong, despite instigating civil war, a capital crime.

Suk Yeol’s aborted martial law declaration is the latest failure in his meticulously sponsored career.

I think MinDef Kim Yong-hyun & Martial Law Commander Gen. Park An-su will be sacked. Incredible political miscalculation. Yoon is a brilliant lawyer & former prosecutor, but not a politician before running for POTROK.

PM Han overlooked as defense minister bypasses him on martial law declaration
Prime Minister Han Duck-soo was completely unaware of President Yoon Suk Yeol's martial law declaration. This was because Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, a former upperclassman of President Yoon in hi...

That's only partially right. The Combined Forces Command is headed by the US 4-star, but CFC is designed to be COMBINED, including in decision-making. Not having a POTROK as commander in chief of the ROK military is huge problem.

Suspended PotRoK Yoon Suk Yeol has been served with a warrant for his arrest and has been taken into custody at his residence, bringing to an end 43 days of political turmoil.

Suk Yeol will be charged with leading insurrection as head instigator of civil war.

The Republic of Korea National Assembly voted yesterday to impeach PotRoK Yoon Suk Yeol on charges of insurrection and instigating civil war by declaring martial law.

Yoon Suk Yeol is expected to be found guilty and sentenced to death by hanging.

The Republic of Korea has been a United Statesian vassal since US occupation forces overthrew The People’s Republic of Korea on 12 December 1945.

PotRoK has no power to declare martial law without permission of PotUS, de jure Joe Biden de facto Jake Sullivan.

Right. That's the current puzzle. With an impeachment (2/3 of the NA members), the POTROK is temporarily removed from office pending adjudication by the court. If the court can't rule on the case, I think it could go on indefinitely until new justices are appointed. Not a lawyer though...

“King-ish” indeed.

As of July 1, 2024, with the SCOTUS ruling in The Orange Slug (TOS) v United States, we have a serial autocracy.

The fact is that the POTUS can now do absolutely anything and not face legal consequence, like what the POTROK has been attempting over the last 48 hours for example.

Court issues arrest warrant to detain the impeached POTROK, Yoon.

Two points of miscalculation by Han:

1) liberals only need 10 defections to get impeachment through. Nothing he can do to stop that. His colleagues don’t need to worry about running for POTROK next year.

2) if he votes against impeachment and it still passes, he’s done. Possibly forever.

Just because POTROK can *technically* declare martial law doesn't mean he can rule as an autocrat at the press of a button. You need to convince the public and key stakeholders.

But like every other thing Yoon's tried over the past 2 yrs, he was unwilling to do the work to actually make it happen.

#YoonSukyeol arrest warrant redux? Fmr POTROK will know tonight.
July 9, 2025 at 12:45 PM
One more PPP MP needed to reach #YoonSukyeol #impeachment in vote tomorrow.
If passed, the removal of #POTROK could still last months. #LeeJaemyung likely to speed up process to avoid jail.

@joonhawrites: Lee Jae-myung officially started his term as POTROK at 6:21am KST.

@joonhawrites: Exactly six months ago today on Dec. 3, martial law troops stormed the National Assembly building as part of Yoon’s emergency decree.

Now on June 3, staffers prepare the same building in order to host the inauguration of the new POTROK.
