The Crimson blood of my enemies has always been my favorite color.
The crazy thing about every one of these stories is actually how completely unsurprised the wife always is. “Well, you know, we always assumed it wouldn’t be cancer.”
Drinking for a few hours in not a fucking excuse to blow your own head up. I have been drinking for much longer than that and have never felt the need to face fuck a Roman candle.
Authoritarian leftists have a lot more in common with fascists than liberal leftists, that’s for sure.
Nihilists cannot so this
No, but it prevents other people from engaging with a topic to begin with
And yet this is still many orders of magnitude more sane than thinking Donald Trump is fit to be president.
Y’all trying to get me banned from .ml again. I’m not falling for it.
A lot of people are reading this wrong. What is likely going to happen is that the district court will say that a grand Jury can decide if something is an official act. That might be challenged again but I’d wager that’s the next stop in this saga.
You don’t actually have to. Trust me I’ve been through this.
That’s not what they ruled at all. They said there was immunity for official acts, specifically citing constitutional powers like appointing judges, commanding the military and recognizing foreign states. That was honestly never in question. A lot of people are reading this wrong. This was a massive punt, which basically opens up the door for a jury to decide what constitutes an official act.
You can literally travel to China and find out yourself
Almost all of these “national security” trials are done in complete secret by the Adjudicative Committee, which is a political CCP body that oversees the public legal system. Its exact workings are a state secret, but it generally reviews all court proceedings and defers to the public court for most matters. However for any case which involves foreign affairs or national security, there is a high chance that the Adjudicative Committee will hold a national security trial in secret and deliver the verdict to the appointed trial judge, who will read the verdict into the public record.
You don’t even have to say it. Go hand out “free Taiwan” pamphlets in tiananmen square and I promise you that you will be arrested extremely quickly and tried in secret. Your “trial” will be a judge telling your lawyer the charges, verdict and sentence to an otherwise empty courtroom. If you are very lucky you will be deported with time served.

Sucking Xi Jinping’s salty taint.
Death always to tyrants. Overthrow the CCP. Democracy in Beijing!
Nah, humidity is the real killer when it comes to heat.
