There can be a fight, but it can be stopped at any point by the executive branch for any reason without restriction or consequence.

Plus, now there is a legal precedent for presidential immunity, so even if the best situation occurs and executive balance is restoreed, the next team of bandits can point to 2024 and say well look, the highest court in the land said their ruling supersedes the Constitution.

Fixing this will require some sort of comprehensive rewrite of either the Constitution to make its powers inviolate or better yet, to make the limitations on the branches inviolate.

Maybe increase the amendments by tenfold to elucidate exactly what is allowed and not allowed, because right now “reasonable judgment” is often invoked as a limitation on important legal rulings, but if you have a conservative majority refusing to honestly engage with “reasonable judgment” and willing to pwrjure themselvesto irritate harmful and unreasonable judgment, as the conservatives on the court are and have been willing to do for decades, then they can do things like violate or invalidate the Constitution.

The problem with all of these solutions is that the limitations on executive power are already very clear, and the supreme Court is objectively violating them.

I don’t see a clear resolution at this point, although I’m so shocked by the end of the US government that I’m still working through the consequences and considering hopeful solutions.

Right now, the most hopeful solution I see is like when dumps asked pence to violate the Constitution and declare him president, pence refused.

So if another atrocity is now ordered, right now the only hope is that the person being ordered to do it will risk being executed for treason and not follow that order.

Relying on many someones like pence to all do the right thing is not exactly comforting.

Great point.

We’ve passed the point that everything “could be on the table”, everything is on the table as of that ruling.

Biden is right now absolutely unfettered by the Constitution, amendments, federal and state laws, according to the supreme Court.

Biden immediately made it clear that no American was above the law, but right now he is above the law and choosing not to take advantage of the now unrestricted power of his office.

Not likely to be a tradition in future presidents.

A large portion of tourism income, including airfare, goes directly to the government, and North Korea can buy old nuclear warheads for several hundred thousand dollars, which adds up pretty quick with a few hundred tourists.

Bear that in mind if you’re thinking of visiting.

A scant couple hundred thousand more brain cells and we’ll be there.

Cheap shot, I’ve never dared a soap opera myself.

Murderbot.

Murrrderbooooot.

800,000 brain cells played pong.

Creepy.

That’s murderbot’s ancestor.

Jackson added, for sure.

Kagan no way.

Kagan has sided with conservatives way too many times with the “look, their conclusion is poorly reasoned and unconstitutional, but you can technically get to the conclusion constitutionally from a liberal perspective if…” and then she sides with the conservatives.

Poking around in legal details can be fun, but she can be a professor while we get someone taking action on the court instead of siding with employer-imposed religious mandates over employee bodily autonomy (hobby lobby), supporting the “Muslim ban”(trump via Hawaii), and crippling contract law so that class action lawsuits can’t be brought against corporations over faulty or illegal contracts. (American Express versus Italian colors).

Kagan is not helping people, get someone on there who wants to help people.

What do you like about genocide?

Specifically

Time to legally immediately replace every Justice except for Sotomayor and Jackson.

Oh I see. I’m interested in trying a newer gen game now and seeing how much it blows my mind.

I don’t think I played anything since 2, I haven’t played fighting games in a very long time.

Never have, I just off the old games and then slid into RPGs and off fighting games in general. Sounds fun though

Oh rad, thanks, Do you like the new games?

Oh, cool thanks.

I haven’t played any of the new games, are they still really fun?

I’m excited to see the casting.

I hope this is concept art and not the character look, it’s reminding me of the Sonic release.

Too garishly realistic.

I’ve seen the 1994 film and at least plot wise, I think it would be impossible to do worse.

This will probably be way more fun, and they’ll be able to do a lot more with animation than you could do with live action characters in the world of Street fighter

Yeah this will probably be better.

Oops, I just found out this is going to be live action.

Wellp.

It’ll probably still be better than the 1994 movie, that is really rough to watch.

The effects weren’t there, fight choreography wasn’t there, the plot was absent, this movie has to be better.

I didn’t assume, I literally asked you directly if this was written by AI.

You chose not to respond, then told me that you hate me, and keep responding like an asshole.

It doesn’t matter if you’re neurodivergent or not if you’re choosing to be an asshole.

I asked you a simple question, you could have answered it.

That doesn’t bode well

Thanks, good to hear from a local.

You mean they’re getting airtime to voice their views?

Which fascist views are being adopted?

So they wouldn’t have significant political power, but they would have a political presence at all, which feels threatening?

Is that politically significant?

How relevant is that in terms of government leadership?

You made perfect sense, and this post was overwhelmingly upvoted.

Chill out.

Next time:

“Was this ai-written?”

“No, I wrote this.”

"Cool, I like sailing too.
