Get fucked Roger.
“Well, you see, the first amendment prevents congress from passing laws, but under the unitary executive principle, the president doesn’t need authority via congress to suppress free speech” — Stephen Miller, probably.
Clarence Thomas definitely.
Or else, what?
And I'm sure they will argue that since it says 'shall' and not 'must' then it's just a suggestion.
Or else the law is challenged and the supreme court strikes it down. Except we all know how that will go
We could exercise our 2nd amendment right and start killing Nazis again.
Sugar in a gas tank is very effective at neutralizing a vehicle. They can't get there if they can't drive, because they are fat and out of shape.
It's actually not that effective. A car can drive for dozens if not hundreds of miles with sugar in the tank. Most of the sugar would get picked up by the fuel filter, and the small amount that gets through would probably not be enough to brick an engine. It'd drive like shit after a while, and they'd have to swap out the fuel filter, but the car would still drive.
Yeah. Better to use Portland cement.
Bleach any better? It rusts the gas tank
Might need to organize a little to make that anywhere near effective, instead of simply lighting any one of the powder kegs these fucknuts're endlessly sandbagging everywhere they can... 🤌🏼🤷🏼♂️
They're hoping that this issue goes to the SC
Wait til lil' Rog figures out that he and the rest of the House have legislated themselves out of power: when actual power is concentrated in the executive with the judicial to backdate the executive's blank check now and then, who needs legislative at all?
Also, just for those few who are not already aware, this near-total concentration of power in the executive is a key feature of fascism.
In government parlance, "will", "shall", and "must" are all mandatory actions. In other words, Congress is explicitly forbidden from making a law that limits freedom of speech.
However, it doesn't seem this administration puts much stock in following the law.
With regards to the people at the top of the government, the laws they're meant to abide by only apply to the extent that the individuals themselves care about them.
To the people occupying those positions right now, those laws are nothing more than words on a paper they're never going to read, and as a result, that's all the power they have right now.
There's no point in reciting laws to people who don't know them, don't care about them, and won't be held accountable for breaking them.
If money is speech then bricks can be petitions.
Eh, he didn't make a law. Just a loud complaint. Totally free speech. I agree that he should get fucked though.
I really wish some court would rule that "political statements from office carry outsized consequences for the electorate by way of latitude within their authority, and so carry a similar weight as law thereby violating the 1st". I really want this legal equivalence because this kind of grandstanding has got to stop. But with the SCOTUS we have right now, I may as well be petitioning from the surface of Mars. One day, perhaps.
They are only using the law of violence monopoly.
All it takes is the supreme court to interpret it in the most braindead way possible for that right to be gone.
They don't need to make a new law to fuck with your freedoms even more.
That old piece of paper will not protect you.
