In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law.
The liberal squish who wrote the majority opinion in that case? Justice Antonin Scalia:

The gun was removed by agents from his waistband - he was never pointing it at them. He was already disarmed when they fired "defensive shots," killing him. They then fired several shots at his lifeless body.

Is it shocking a man with over 40+ rape allegations with a child sex trafficking best friend would not take no for an answer? Donald Trump is upping his rape game to full countries now.

This is the kind of thing that the Founders explicitly designed our constitution to prevent; a president who has seized wealth for his own benefit without any intervention from Congress, which in our system is supposed to be the holder of the power of the purse.

Someone I follow at the other place that's a nurse pointed out below-the-knee leg braces on both legs that you can clearly see through his pants. She's surmising that he has "drop foot" from advancing dementia.
If that's the case, next up for him is a walker.
Then a wheelchair.

We’re fine, Vox. If you have idea problems, that’s a) a you problem and b) probably means you need to shake up your life. Go on a walking tour, take only a flip phone and an emergency beacon. Go spend two weeks in a white tent or a yurt (without internet) and reset your circadian.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.

Worse, he’s not exercising moral authority with that statement, but basically invoking the authority of his position. Any leader in that position is cooked - they’ve lost the organization.
