Political Memes

Law and order is always selective towards the executive branch.

Oh yes what a brilliant system that can be blown apart by the president just deciding they have unchecked power now. Where any mechanism of accountability is either captured or so far beyond the realm of possibility that even one of the most bipartisan major votes I have seen in my lifetime failed to remove from office the most obviously criminal person to hold the office of president.

Your brilliant system relies entirely on the people inside it wanting it to continue working, and nothing about that is brilliant except the amount of almost willing lack of foresight it would take to not account for participants willingly attempting to sabotage and stop it up from within.

Not to mention how separating the executive from the legislative is itself a terrible idea that is no good and bad and stupid and dumb and Madison should have fucking known better, the independent executive is an inherent threat to democracy, it inherently aches against the limitations placed against it by the legislature, and inherently seeks ways to leech powers away from the legislature.

The true order of divisions should be State, Government, and Justice.

The State should be comprised of a greatly expanded Senate headed by a States' Tribune elected from their ranks and accountable to them charged with the duties of calling votes to invoke vetoes, calling votes to issue pardons, and performing the other functions of the head of state.

The Government should be headed by an even greaterly expanded house with the departments of the executive staffed by leaders elected from Congress as well as a Consul elected from their ranks and accountable to them. They perform the main body of the work of passing legislation, but can veto senate actions as much as the senate can veto theirs, and are the upper house because fuck anyone who puts the people's representatives below the house of dirt.

The judiciary needs to be a legal monkhood of judges who are pulled for cases with federal jurisdiction at random, and that can't pull any of that marbury v madison shit where they just decide they have new powers now either. The "Chief Justice" will be the senior most judge pulled for a case, and thr junior most will serve as the foreman of the bench of "jurors."

That's how you build a government that can keep operating even with active fuckery afoot, make it big, big to the point that attempts to mess with it can't be realized at scale anymore, make the responsibilities and duties clear and concrete, and for the love of god create means of accountability that are actually able to get used when someone still manages to fuck around so spectacularly that it warrants an immediate finding out.

None of this impeachment shit where the other side being more popular than a literal pile of horse shit means they can block any and all accountability. Still have that in there, but also have lesser accountability measures that don't take a political act of god to slap down on a judge literally caught taking bribes, or a national leader literally trying to send a lynch mob after his political rivals.

They are all parties of "Law & Order..." whether they admit to it or not.
