My guess is they rule against him on IEEPA but the government doesn't have to pay back revenue already collected. Then the tariffs get reimposed via the 232 process anyway. And that would still be better than what we have today lol

Insane that the Supreme Court didn't immediately stop the tariffs and let this drag on for 6 months. Even the most sacrosanct, load bearing pillar of this country-the interests of capital-must submit to the whims of one old doofus. And we love to see it

The other issue is, pardons only help with federal criminal liability. I'd be worried about professional consequences too if we're all living under Woke 2: The Wokening in the not too distant future

Speaking of consequences for accomplices I don't know how confident I'd be feeling right now that the president with mashed potatoes instead of brains will remember my name when it's time to hand out pardons

This is good, from Hakeem Jeffries. More of this please, in every conceivable forum:

"Sycophants who aid and abet the President’s vengeful schemes will not be able to hide from the serious legal consequences of their behavior. They will be held accountable."

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

Remember that viral tweet that was like "I feel bad for our country but this is tremendous content?" Now the content isn't even good. It stinks!

This is why I think the next Democratic president needs to use the EXACT tools that SCOTUS has handed Trump. Don't leave room for any distinctions.

Impound funds for deportation. Give ICE the USAID treatment. Refuse to collect government-backed debt. Purge MAGA loyalists from the executive branch.

I joked about it but it may actually be worthwhile for every Dem who gets on tv to start saying Stephen Miller is the real president

U.S. Northern Command says that elements of the Texas national guard are now “employed in the greater Chicago area.”

The statement claims that they’ve been deployed to protect ICE and federal property.

The Greek myth ending of this story is the Trump gang's invention of leftist bogeymen accidentally provokes the advent of actual militant leftism, because it becomes the only realistic way of resisting his abuses

One of the reasons they're having trouble concocting a Left Wing Terrorism epidemic is basically nobody in this country has ever met a left wing person. You might as well say we're being invaded by the smurfs

Q: There's compelling proof that antifa did infiltrate on January 6 dressed up like Trump supporters and incited violence. Is that something you'd like the new J6 committee to look at?

TRUMP: Well I've heard that. Yeah. We will be acting on some of that.

He's president crimes! He's been doing nothing but crimes since he took the oath!

Instead of being forced to talk about Big Tech's fake inventions we should celebrate the truly life changing feats of genius that we don't think about. The incredible "head phones." The humble toilet

The reason you have a display name like "The Ass is the father of the legs" is when you make a good point and someone reposts it, they're also helping to spread an important message, which is that the ass is the father of the legs

I'm sincerely trying to understand the argument for this behavior and it seems to be that it generates attention, but it's attention for garbage that isn't channeled into anything productive
