It’s crazy because so much of the constitution is about ensuring no one is above the law, because they were trying to get away from a monarchy. Somehow this SC either can’t read or understand the constitution though because here we are.
I think it’s much more obvious that one party cares about decorum no matter what is going on.
Article 2, section 4 clear says “and all civil officers.” It specifies president and vice president likely because they were getting away from a monarchy and wanted to specify they aren’t above the law, but it clearly should apply to any federal civil officers.
Does this actually matter if the Supreme Court is ruling in the constitutionality of how accountable they are to other’s power? Probably not. This supreme court at least will always argue in favor of serving themselves. I don’t know how that plays out at that point.
How would this prevent them from suing?
Some of it, yeah. Obviously some is required. Not the amount that it has though.
It is not the most expensive for any intrinsic reason. It’s not necessarily that complex to operate. It’s expensive because bureaucracy that has been strapped to it to make switching to it harder, which was designed to keep dirty energy in demand longer. It is the safest power source we have available (including renewables). There’s no reason it’s so expensive except to attempt to kill it.
I love the “as many of us know, Rep Friske is always exercising his 2nd Amendment right,” as if to somehow excuse an assault with a deadly weapon.
I think it’s more likely that someone else buys it for the audience it already has, not for Alex, and uses that for good or ill. It could end up as more of the same, or it could get much better or worse.
This isn’t the reason. He committed fraud while paying a porn star to be quit. He did not commit a crime with the payment itself necessarily, rather in how he did it (and with the side effect of defrauding the public during an election).
Yep, and I’m sure blatantly violating the gag order (assuming it works like for a normal person) will lead to harsher sentencing. In that case, I hope he violates it further.
The purpose of not actually calling it what it is is because most people won’t read it. It let’s the media “accurately” say the thing they want them to say.
I would be pretty confident taking this meeting was only a signal that they’re open to other factions. If the democrats don’t start doing something, they don’t automatically have their support… At least, that’s the idea. They effectively do automatically have their support because of how horrible the MAGA side is, which sucks.
Trump winning doesn’t do anything except make it a way to bribe the president. Everyone knows who/what are on that site. It’s not going to make advertisers go there. It’s already the place of the loudmouthed former president, which probably gets more users than it being the site that had the president.
I don’t believe the far-left does. I believe a subgroup have fallen for far-right propaganda that was disguised as leftist. I’d consider myself pretty far left, but I recognize that the messaging coming out of certain groups is not their own. They are just gullible enough to fall for it.
I know enough about Florida to know it’s usually bad.
I see a lot of comments saying they aren’t. I’d disagree, but I agree they don’t have to be. The issue is most of the major powers in the world have opposed leftist governments anytime they show up. The ones that didn’t have a strong central power and cultural hegymony collapsed under the pressure. Any nation that had a weaker central power was either destroyed, couped, or undermined by the west.
There is nothing intrinsically authoritarian about leftism (really, I’d say it’s less authoritarian in it’s ideals), but authoritarianism is easier to hold together when outside pressures are trying to destroy you.
Yeah…, these protests aren’t trying to stop Israel directly. They’re trying to effect US policy. Israel would care about the US giving them less money or less support. They would be bombed to hell without the US. They’re trying to effect our country, which effects other countries.
Hey. I responded to you before this post was made with more information explaining more details about the movement. That comment now has a reply with a link to an article you might find informative. If you are actually open to more information, here’s the link to the comment. You should for sure check the reply with the link.
“You should only protest for things that directly benefit yourself.”
You have to love conservative ideology. I love how open you are about it.
I wasn’t implying it was a good thing, just the explanation of why they don’t get more done.
That said, they have improved a few things. It just isn’t as much as we need. Insulin, for example, is in a much better place, and that should be expanding to cover more drugs. Thr democrats are significantly better than the Republicans. They are not both the same. They just aren’t as good as we deserve.
