Something granting immunity to fear condition? Resistance to cold? :)

When he said he could literally shoot a person on 5th Ave in New York and he'd still get elected, I honestly think that would probably be true. In fact, he could start executing random people and by merely stating "it's part of my job, protecting the country" he'd have a legal golden parachute.

- Since as President his own SCOTUS has given him immunity for anything he does if he can even vaguely connect it to his role, even if a few Republicans grow heart in their chests and all the Democrats grow a spine, he's legally protected even for obvious crimes domestic and abroad.

- Months go by, no change, and Orange47 despite Congress saying no will continue to do what he wants regardless of the legal jeopardy he puts everyone else around him in, and the danger he puts the average American worldwide for this stunt.

- Weeks continue to go by, Republicans will tout how much wealthier and stronger America will be with this new territory under our control, truly MAGA, while Democrats will continue to beg for normalcy and say this isn't right and act powerless to stop the Presidents' actions.

- Congress says "hey you can't do that" and everyone releases their personal statements; of how when the right time comes their going to vote their little hearts out and say he can't continue to do war crimes.
- Congress votes on a resolution saying 'war crimes bad' and he needs to pinky swear stop.

I've said since before he returned; he's going to put us back into a forever war and near the end of his term he will say and do anything to claim as a wartime president he needs to stay in charge.

And on top of it all, our military has kidnapped the President and First Lady of Venezuela and taken them... somewhere.
So we take the leadership from a country, bomb it, and then expect them to comply with us and praise America and work functionally with us?

Our current president is bombing another country because they have friendly trade relationships with China, and are taking advantage of the ridiculous tariffs he imposed on his own citizens. Now individual speed boats with unknown cargo and unknown people on them are being blown out of the water.

We allowed President Bush to shoot first and ask permission later, and it only dragged us through a two decade war that's burned our relationships across the Middle East and the world. At least Bush made a show of pulling the wool over our eyes, claiming weapons of mass destruction and world peace.

Automation and it's cost to the working class and their career opportunities is a high priority for the teamsters to take on, and they're getting good practice with their fight against Amazon which is a company that is already highly automated, compared to UPS who are still testing the waters.

My Center would likely close before it ever got automated to that degree. But thankfully my Union contract gives me first dibs any positions at other centers, and the union will fight like hell to slow walk as much as possible with regards to technology taking Union work.
