Terry Hendrix II 🏹 (thendrix@social.hendrixgames.com)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 10:47:26 JST Terry Hendrix II 🏹 Only idiots didn’t know how SCOTUS was going to rule on that one… it was pretty clear cut in law, and practically if they decided to supersede the safeguard we’d never have a functional executive branch again… assuming the nation didn’t melt down as soon as it was used against the Biden admin.
You can’t by-pass both the separation of powers and due process for the head of the executive branch – not to mention remove immunity for official acts – and not devolve into a new system of government overnight one way or another.

iced depresso (icedquinn@blob.cat)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 10:48:54 JST iced depresso @Moon @nep @thendrix @ageha robert barnes has some interesting legal theories about how your term ending doesn't make you "not a president" anymore but i don't think i agree with him.
he's a constitutional lawyer and i'm not but it seems not at all the intent that you get immunity to anything done after leaving office yeah. -

iced depresso (icedquinn@blob.cat)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 10:51:17 JST iced depresso @Moon @nep @thendrix @ageha i looked that up and the standard ethos is that singular titles are renounced and plural titles are retained.
if there is only one president then only the current holds the title, while there are multiple generals and so you retain it.Sexy Moon likes this. -

The problem is like I said years ago – the former fixers aren’t even on their side after getting burned.

iced depresso (icedquinn@blob.cat)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 10:59:05 JST iced depresso @thendrix @nep @Moon @ageha if biden wins we get another four years of being hollowed out and sold to israel/ukraine amongst other bullshit.
if trump wins we'll get another four years of TDS and just a different flavor of the system self destructing. maybe he'll be as good as another temporary stall by just being so useless like he was last time that they can't get their agendas through for a little bit.
i haven't seen any indications that orange man has become any more loyal or intelligent. he was happy to step over assange's work and never pardon him. he had four whole years to do it with the stroke of a pen.
what he chose to do was help pfizer make billions of dollars by deleting the safety rails to gene therapies instead. -

Besides if they cheat the vote people will use violence to resolve it as the courts failed to do their duty last time. That’s what happens when the system sits on its hands.

At this point if they keep fucking up people will beg the little kings to rule, and some have been wanting that the whole time…

it literally does not matter what idiots with pens do. it matters that we decide we are not putting up with corporate slavery and begin meaningful, strict enforcement of the ethos. -

Terry Hendrix II 🏹 (thendrix@social.hendrixgames.com)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 11:10:19 JST Terry Hendrix II 🏹 The party is only half purged, so that’s unlikely for another branch to do anything even with Paul in charge of the Senate. RINOs vote with DNC no matter what – see last Trump term. I’m just being realistic.
Also conservatives aren’t in the GOP it’s mostly a populist party now. The purse strings already changed hands, so that battle is over. Some incoming knives to the back, sure.

Especially the evangelical Christian right-wing. They support a lot of the same issues I do, but I absolutely will never make common cause with them because of what they would do should they ever gain any power to speak of. Sexy Moon likes this. -

☑⚡thurisaz⚡ (toiletpaper@shitposter.club)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 11:26:17 JST ☑⚡thurisaz⚡ You and I have vastly differing experience on this. I've been part of activism on both sides of the isle when it aligns with my values and interests, so I can speak from ample experience that the left and the right wing in Canada are both equally delusional.
Anyway, the right-left moniker originates from the revolutionary French legislature. Right wing originally referred to monarchists and the aristocracy, whereas left-wing applied to everyone else spanning from Communists right though to Laissez-faire Capitalists.
Frankly it's not really the economic theories that irk me the most. Neither is a panacea against the ills they pretend to oppose, but simply a different path to the same ultimate destination. What irks me is putting people in charge of society who can't distinguish between a pseudohistorical fantasy novel, and objective reality. They belong in a padded cell, not public office.Sexy Moon likes this. -

Besides which, I'm an anarchist. The whole modern right-left paradigm is just a ploy to keep stupid people divided and easily conquered. As long as you buy into one or the other side, you're simply part of the problem. -

Pete Zaitcev (zaitcev@shitposter.club)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 15:55:40 JST Pete Zaitcev @Moon @thendrix @ageha @icedquinn @nep Trump ushered an unprecedented prosperity during his 1st term, just in case your "goldfish voter" memory kicks in. It literally was without equal - the country has set an all time record of length of a growth period between recessions. And he's done it by using protectionism that every expert out there predicted would tank the economy (not only Krugman). As much as I can tell, Trump's protectionism disrupted the worst excesses of the rent-seeking globalism, and thus delivered the goods to the American workers. I would absolutely love a repeat of that, although perhaps conditions had to be right. The debt is now much worse, inflation is much worse. -
