No, it still matters. Justice will be done on a lot of them one day, and the courts, saving the corrupt Supreme are doing okay. It's congress and the executive that are really failing. People talk about Trump pardons, but do you think he really cares?
I think the Democratic party needs to have more leaders of visible faith. Somehow we have let the Rs steal Christianity and pervert it into this abomination. I'm okay with anyone of faith (or of none) who tries, but the right wing's version of Christianity is a sick joke. Where is the decency?
Logically, one would think you'd have to actually mean it. Somehow beginning for forgiveness right at the end of his life doesn't seem to have the ring of sincerity...
Either way, if he wants forgiveness for sins, a good first step, is to stop sinning.
I really hope people are tracking all this illegal crap. We are going to have to build a lot of new prisons when this is all over. Even if a lawyers lies and comes up with a nonsense reason, a crime, is still a crime, particularly when everyone involved has had reason to question it all.
Sadly the average American's ability to see through the BS is not great. I still believe Ukraine can and will win eventually and thank them for doing their part against the madness. So many lives and so much of the potential to mankind has been lost to these evil people. We must do better.
The executive does not have limitless authority to move money around. Discretion yes. Some is implied. Limitless or anything approaching this no. They are violating the constitution and the whole regime needs impeached and removed.
Sadly congressional republicans will not do their job.
Litigation and peaceful protests where we somehow overcome the lies is about the only realistic way out of this. That is why they are working so hard to incite violence. They are itching to use the insurrection act. The act never envisioned a regime so corrupt it would be used like this.
Bad guys only announce their evil in fiction. In reality they tend to embrace whatever symbols of good they can, to further their plans. That is why they have created this mockery of Christianity, and why they always appear so pious while doing evil.
To the ones that own the main stream media. Your Faustian deal will never be enough. They will always want more.
Do you want to live in a country without the rule of law that helped make you all that money? If the US falls leaving won't fully be enough to escape the consequences. Everyone loses.
They have lied from the beginning. It was always just an excuse. The public has a large interest in accountability and law and order. The masks just allow them to commit crimes with impunity.
Deporting a lot of people can be done in an ethical matter. Obama and Biden did it...
I wonder how many direct or indirect deaths ICE is responsible for now. Certainly dumping people anywhere they can is going to have some very bad ends. I'd say that number has to easily be into the thousands.
That's sort of my thought. Democrats have struggled to keep things from getting bad for so long, that they don't notice how different their choices are. Also Rs lie a lot.
A lot seem to almost be waiting for Trump to fall to some health condition. I'm not too sure about that strategy.
To the position, we know Trump is old and unhealthy, and they are seriously overplaying their hand. Also, the phrase that the United States always does the right things after trying every other alternative comes to mind. I hope that is still true.
Don't get me wrong. I don't want anyone to lose health care, but if we are just buying time for full fascism, well, that's not a solution. They would just lose it a couple years later.
I don't know. I know if all the bad things we said would happen actually do happen, then odds are the republicans lose power and the country survives, since they caused all the bad things. Then again most of those bad things have already happened, and it is barely moving the needle.
That wouldn't necessarily result fix anything is the problem. It might make it worse. Going to court, or bringing in any legal means to compel seems the way.
