Oath of office? What's that?
He thought it was “oaf of office” and assumed he was fine.
Step 1: get elected sheriff
Step 2: issue warrant to enter HIS home
Step 3: profit
Kinda sounds like he's saying mayor's and governor's should be able to issue judicial warrants. I don't think they thought that through very well.
Sheriffs are part of the executive branch. He's suggesting we do away with yet another check/ balance ingrained in our constitution.
So are mayors and governors and I'm aware.
I guess my point was if law enforcement can directly issue their own warrants, then they basically become legal vigilantes with no oversight.
Sure and my point was executive staff could issue warrants against each other.
These bunker bitches live mostly in army bases.
So the executive should have absolute authority to do whatever it wants? Tyranny, he's describing tyranny. The founders were not stupid when they emphasized the need to violently murder tyrants would be reoccurring. If Trump and his admin keep consolidating power under the executive and refuse to stop, there is no other option than force. They chose this, not us, they ensured violence was inevitable by being the first to use it.
And I'm endorsing Neurenberg type trials, soon
You have to win the war first. You have to actually start fighting in order to do that. We haven't seen that from America yet. What's it gonna take?
People are dying in the streets fighting. It just happened. That's what a lot of this is about. In the history of the world there is very little immediate success for these kinds of movements. Unfortunately, it's a process to build up momentum and engage in solidarity. You pointing the finger at Americans as though authoritarianism and government overreach isn't a growing problem everywhere is not helping. The problem facing America is in part the result of other countries making exceptions for America on the world stage for generations. Now the government has turned against our allies and they're regretting having relied on America for protection. Had they not been so reliant on America in the first place we wouldn't have been able to swing our might in whatever direction the government wanted without fear of repercussions. The cowardice of other leaders has made our leaders worse and now we all are suffering, because make no mistake, the world suffers when people in it suffer. Hopefully the end of the tunnel results in the righting of the ship, but plenty of suffering has already happened and will continue to happen so please don't act like people haven't already died fighting against this, because they have.
They are dying because they DIDN'T fight. Every time this happens it starts with compliance and then they get murdered anyways.
We still have too many creature comforts to give a fuck. Americans are weak and it shows.
Looks like the executive branch can Nazi the future. The new Nuremberg trials should be a hoot when they start.
This guy definitely wants to scoop up the Taco loyalists once Taco is out of the picture.
That bullshit about "not having to apologize for being white" as well as this stuff. Cozying up to Turning Point USA, etc...
"JD" "Vance" can see that the fever will not break and the conservatives will never, ever go back to the methadone clinic and opt for something like Romney or Jeb.
They want the pure China White of things like Newsmax and Taco (and Miller and Bannon and Noem and Bondi, etc.) saying and doing all of the very worst things to other Americans.
I'm going to say it again for those in the back: administrative "warrants" are not warrants. They've been lying and breaking the constitution for decades. When the untrained fascist goon decides he doesn't like the way you looked at him and fills out his own paperwork to authorize your arrest, that has zero resemblance to the warrants described in the 4th amendment. They should not be used for any arrest, in the home or otherwise. The courts and congress need to acknowledge this fact or we the people will be forced to take matters into our own hands.
It's literally a piece of paper with no legal authority that they CALL a warrant.
A kid could draw one with crayon and it has the exact same authority as that shit.
Typical low energy fascism from the couch f*cker
Cool Do the 2nd next.
Just for some people, he’ll say.
Somebody give this baby his bottle and put him down for his nap
Arsenic bottle.
Yes - the infamous U.S. constitutional system of checks and checks; or was it balances and balances? I can never remember 🤔
If your balance is high enough, they'll take your checks.
