      It’s already been paused on appeal.

        The legal system is just not equipped to deal with the threat implied by Trump.

        In the US it seems like judges are just another executive arm of the government anyway.

        The few actual judges still considering the law just get perpetually paused with appeals and what have you.

            At first I was like “this video is 6 years old, how could this possibly be relevant to this conversation?”

            Then I watched the video and realized, “yep… same shit, different day.” The conservative playbook hasn’t changed a bit and Democrats keep falling for it.

              I hate to say this, but you could go back 40 years and this would still be true. 6 years ago, TACO was still in office.

            Innuendo Studios becoming more prevalent, and more prescient.

              Way too spot on. The video “How to Radicalize a Normie” should be mandatory study in middle school… Then high school, then every year thereafter.

        So…just let him keep breaking the law until it reaches the Supreme Court? I thought they were supposed to pause his actions, pending appeal…not let him keep going.

              That doesn’t mean he has to obey those rulings.

                He did technically return Abrego Garcia, but then he filed some trumped-up charges against him.

                So yea, even if they comply, they are only doing malice compliance.

        The National Guard should release all arrested protesters, return to base and tell the Governor of California that they are “reporting for duty”. If not, they are traitors (already before but then even more so).

        Temporary order while they consider it. Could still go either way.

    Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

    Rules:

    1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

    Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

    Example:

    1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
    2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
    3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
    4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
    5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

    All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

    That’s all the rules!
