He may trip and fall, in which case they’ll have to squeegee him into a dustbin and pour him back into his clothes due to his complete lack of a spinal cord.
The Dems have no spines. They let the Republicans play them like fiddles while they insist on maintaining decorum and “good faith” politics.
I’m sure the Democratic Party of the 1960s would surely agree with this graphic.
I’m slowly, reluctantly, starting to seriously consider the often repeated possibility that they like things just as they are. They get to be the conservative party who masquerades as the left leaning party. R takes all the heat, D does whatever the billionaire class wants.
If I fully accept that, it’s going to bring suicidal thoughts, but I’m starting to at least consider it, where previously I thought it was ridiculous tinfoil hattery.
But, after seeing Harris reward the wave of enthusiasm she first received with pivoting on her heel and running as a more polite Republican, I’m having a hard time maintaining my tinfoil hat assessment.
I think…and I could be wrong… that the Supreme Court has to agree with said official act.
When they’re all corrupt, they won’t agree unless you’re their sugar daddy.
This is correct. The ruling leaves it completely open to interpretation by the Supreme Court, regarding what constitutes an official act. The ruling was never a power gift to the presidency, it was a power grab by by the Supreme Court.
The judicial relies on the executive for enforcement. Dems don’t have the balls.
I thought the same. It seems clear that the Supreme Court intended that ruling for use by their political side, if a Democrat tries to use it that’s the instant they’ll overturn it.
Which would be one way to get rid of it i suppose
They’ll just rule that it couldn’t be a valid presidential act because it’s not constitutional for some batshit crazy made up reason. Meanwhile armed insurrection against the US government is FINE because 'MURCA.
He should fire them as an official act, hire new supreme court justices who on his last day in office declare presidents can no longer do whatever the hell they want and kneecap Trump from undoing shit as soon as he gets into office.
Would he do something so cool? Of course fucking not.
Honestly I’ll just take literally kneecapping Trump and call it a day, is that really a big ask?
I heard the FBI has a file on Tulsi Gabbard and her activities with Russia et al. Biden could declassify that report to tank her becoming DNI. Mentioned on the “Hacks on Tap” podcast from yesterday, so this isn’t just some social media conspiracy theory, it comes from plugged in politicos. Biden won’t, but he could.

What so far leads you to believe that a Republican-controlled senate is going to reject a Trump appointment no matter what is released? Sure, it would be great if Biden did this, but at this point I’m convinced this would be the effect:
Anyone not a Trump supporter: Yeah! Score one for the good guys! She’ll never be confirmed now!
Republican Senate: Appointment confirmed!
Trump Supporters: Cool, now on to Dr. Oz!
A bunch he could declassify.
That would be awesome. Publish what the FBI found about Trump taking 10 million in cash from Egypt, Jeffrey Epstein’s client list, and all the other bullshit we don’t even know about.
I wish we lived in a timeline where he’d consider doing something so great.
Use his complete immunity to reset the courts
He could implement a max age on everyone paid by the federal government that would cover judges as well.
And presidents too. There’s a minimum age requirement, but no maximum. In times past it was unthinkable anyone would vote for a geriatric dementia patient yet here we are.
He won’t do any of it… but,
- Order the immediate publication of all government climate research data
- Lease all climate monitoring satellites to the EU for 5 years.
- Order the complete destruction of all records of US secret agents, foreign assets, etc. operating outside the US.
- Pardon everyone convicted of federal drug crimes for possession of cannibis
- Order the complete destruction of all records of immigrants who entered the country under executive order but without any other legal protection
- Order the complete destruction of all heath records of government employees, especially those regarding gender affirming care and pregnancy.
- Share as much espionage data as possible on Russia, Saudia Arabia, etc. with trusted foreign nations.
I think #4 already happened.
Yup, the only ones he didn’t pardon were the ones with “intent to distribute”, and those should probably be pardoned, and those driving under the influence, who maybe shouldn’t.

I’d be worried about the ones charged with driving under the influence. It could easily be a way of profiling, given that there isn’t any objective way to prove someone’s high and not just having consumed within a couple days. The only current way that I know of is a field sobriety test, which can be a bit subjective.

You can do blood tests for THC, which are a reliable measure.
You are probably thinking of THC-COOH urine or saliva tests, which indeed will show positive for days or even weeks after you are already sober again, since THC-COOH is a metabolite of THC that takes very long to break down and does not have psychoactive properties
Just do it how Canada does it, they have a very reasonable cut-off value for THC blood concentration that even regular consumers with a tolerance for THC won’t surpass while sober again
You can, but did they in the cases in question?
Going forward, it’s a good thing that a method exists to test if someone actually is driving high.
Oh, I’m sure lots of them were wrongfully committed based on inaccurate urine tests or field sobriety tests, no doubt about that
Warning on 3 and 5. The UK destroyed records of immigrants who were invited over to help rebuild Britain postwar and their children. Then a racist Conservative government deported a bunch of them who were children in the 1940s and didn’t have proof of legal immigration status - the only legal documentation had been destroyed. These now old people were dumped back in the Caribbean having lived in the UK for almost their entire lives. It was brutal.
Come on, man. Use the last of your life force to release Dark Brandon one more time. The shows over after this no matter what.
‘…preserve, protect and defend the Constitution…’
duty-bound to take donvict and all his comrades out, or at least round 'em up and ship 'em off to gitmo for a little island vaca. cruz would love that, winter’s coming.
…But he won’t do anything and we all know it. Their inaction is proof that all the cries of “democracy is in peril!” was a cynical tactic to drum up votes. If they were sincere about any of that, they would have had plans in place for these last couple months. Trump led an armed insurrection four years ago, but the democrats are more concerned with maintaining decorum and “reaching across the aisle” than they are with chasing even a vague semblance of justice.
Hell, they’re not even interested in going after Gaetz with any real sense of urgency or vigor. Nixon was pardoned and this is the law of the land. Remember, Democrats and Republicans though they may be, they still all work for the same organization.
Kidnap trump as an official act.
I’m not even really joking. This should’ve been announced and executed right after the Supreme Court decision on the immunity stuff.
BIDEN IS RIGHT WING WHEN WILL YOU LEARN
Lies like this is why Trump won.
Sure, the bad guys won the election and screwed up the country. But for a brief moment in time, a lot of people got to feel really smug.
If you spent any time at all looking into his speeches and voting record, you’d know he was a Nixon Democrat, a Reagan Democrat, a Bush Democrat, and a VP pick to appease the GOP racists Democrat. And trump won because all of the media is right wing per the 1996 Telecommunications Act, which I will bet - without looking right now- Biden voted for.
Let’s look at his record as president:
Pro choice
Pro marriage equality
Increased funding to the IRS
Raised corporate taxes
The largest investment in addressing climate change in history and rejoined the Paris Accords
Appointed a liberal black woman to the supreme court along with over 200 more liberal judges
Enacted student debt relief for more than 5 million people
Capped healthcare costs for Medicare and allowed the negotiation of prescription drug prices
Enhanced background checks on guns and closed loopholes
Halted all federal executions
That’s the antithesis of the modern Republican party

Promise kept. Too bad he lost the lower and middle class with that, but it was past time for the charade to be over anyway.
