Sounds like the pro-democracy call would be to call in seal team 6 to kill four supreme Court justices and then replace them before the elections in November.
And then if Congress refuses to nominate your justices then you kill the Congress members that vote against you.
And you just keep killing and killing and killing until things are right again.
Don’t forget the killing.
Oh, right. Good catch, I almost forgot!
For Managed Democracy!
It's never going to happen.
And that's a good thing. I don't want the killing to start because who is to say it will ever end?
I'm sure the reason scotus passed this is because they know the dems wont take advantage of it, If they thought the dems would make use of the powers they would have used another delay tactic
It's this the same group that were screaming about "setting a precedent" when trump was going to court because "oooOOOooooh we might do your guy now".
To sum up: The GOP and its SCOTUS are all actively trying to overthrow democracy in the wake of an actual coup attempt, and a party called Democrats are now legally permitted to have them shot (and absolutely will not do that). Further, the current president is being rubbished by a corporate press so hungry for ad revenue that they prefer bad presidents.
A sad finale, played off key on a broken down saloon piano on the outskirts of a forgotten ghost town. I shall never cross its threshold again in my lifetime.
Basic human decency is a debilitating handicap in US politics.
It is against any authoritarians. The only thing they understand is getting their ass kicked. Everything else is a game in which they intend to always come out on top by any means.
So, which nation will bring the seeds of democracy to this ailing regime's populace? How about you, Iraq, for old times sake?
Britain is still here. It's not too late to surrender.
Make America Great Britain Again!
"No Kings of America" Not for long 😎🇬🇧
Ive seen their government. I'll pass. Annexation by Canada would be ok though.
Unfortunately, the apple didn't fall far from the tree and their government is not so great, either.
I'll try and fix that on Thursday.
I don't know. Doesn't someone need to find oil under the white house first?
There is lots of oil under the US
So keeping files is not a presidents act. And Georgia also not.
So, how bad would it be if Biden took up on this claim and assassinated Trump using these supposed laws?
Would the laws be counted as illegal, and Biden sent to jail?
Do you think you Americans would get a non-geriatric candidate to vote on?
Biden may be immune for the order criminally.
Not a chance. The SCOTUS decides what is and isn't "official," and 6 of them would determine that this was "not official."
