abysmal
Ain’t no way Trump wrote that.
But whoever did is a liar.

You may have heard of Thomas Jefferson?
“…the price of Liberty is eternal vigilance.”
I remember. The turbo on my 386 didn’t make it faster. It made non turbo mode slower.
Standing up in the face of oppression and bigotry is the point.
I think an “arms race” that forever expands the court – and thus dilutes the individual relevance of a single Justice – is a good thing.
A single Justice dying or retiring should not be the sort of thing to reshape the entire country.
“Training data”
There are no hard requirements for being president beyond those listed in the Constitution:
That’s it. The framers of the Constitution presumably felt being a convicted felon would be enough for an electorate (or the electoral college, at least) to simply not vote for that person.
Oh no.
Not undermine the legitimacy of the Court!
Those fucksticks did it themselves. Anything the Executive does to put it back on course is an improvement.
then paying off said pornstar to interfere with the election outcomes?
You forgot the most important part: Feloniously classifying those payments as “legal expenses.”
I think a better question: Why are they reading YouTube comments?
Impeachment is the accusation and happens in the House. They draft “Articles of Impeachment” and pass them like any other bill, with a majority vote.
The Senate then holds a trial while the House provides a prosecutor of those charges. The Senate acts as a jury and, to convict, requires a “2/3rd majority of those present”
Trump, for example was impeached twice, successfully. The Senate failed to convict both times.
Useless grandstanding. It will never make it out of committee. On the insane chance it did, Biden would immediately veto it.
But, if you want to keep track yourself, here it is: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/4296/all-actions?s=2&r=2
Honestly, I read the judge’s statement as a sort of appeal to Trump’s ego and integrity. Like a, “Come on bro, you were the president, don’t make me throw you in jail,jackass.”
It’s mostly performative, so the judge can say he didn’t want to when he eventually gets has to.
Just call it “Grand Wizard” and get it over with.
My bad! I just assumed.
Nah. As a schedule I, it’s in the same category as things like meth. Tito your corner drug dealer ain’t telling the feds where he’s selling, right?
They’re pulling a Ron Swanson about “official acts”.
Remember when Ron won that female empowerment award and was giving Leslie a hard time? She said, “That’s not the attitude of an award winner.”
He replied, “Everything I do is the attitude of an award winner, because I have won an award.”
Not some random courthouse. Just the steps of the Supreme Court.
Decisions like this should have immediate consequences for those deciding. If you want to make the President above the law, well, enjoy your stay in Gitmo.
Counterpoint: Alito is a piece of shit and isn’t asking the question in good faith.
I don’t think anyone seriously is claiming Biden is without issue. Only that now is too late to call for replacing him.
They are basically the “blue no matter who” people. I’ll probably be one this election too, considering the alternative.
