The entire world benefits from a strong America.

Well, we’re about to test that hypothesis. The world is going to have to go it alone for a little while.

If he really means that, then Punxsutawney Trump has just forecast another four years of recession.

They’ve also really amped up the content moderation bots and are on the warpath for anything perceived to be bot accounts. Shadow bans are being given out for accounts that are hours old and haven’t even posted.

Winnie the Pooh sucks my ass.

Heh. Don’t do that from an account that you like or has a lot of karma.

Reddit admins are a bunch of shit eating peckerwoods now.

Rich people trying to buy land for their own slice of paradise goes way back. Solano County is recent history, young squire. I go back to the Free State project from 2001, same song and dance. Or the non-government wet dream of Sealand off the coast of England in 1987, ditto. And if one wants to go even more old school than that, look at the rich Confederate plantation owners that went to Brazil after the CSA fell in 1865. You can even go down to the town of Americana every year and celebrate the Confederacy! These fuckers wanted to deny that they lost so badly that they created a false reality in Brazil.

I first heard what a poop knife was about 10 years ago from my wife. Evidently they had one in her house growing up.

She and some of y’all need jesus lol.

Ah, my mistake lol.

Well yea, that’s exactly what he’s after: Small parts of the country, mainly Federal Circuits that aren’t perceived to be “friendly” will have injunctions while those that grab their ankles for Trump and give him whatever he wants (i.e. the 5th) don’t do an injunction and the states are free to not grant citizenship at will.

Conservatives relied on these national injunctions during the Biden admin just the way liberal groups are now. It’s dangerous to prognosticate with this Supreme Court but nationalwide injunctions have their purpose and I don’t see this changing.

It should also be pointed out that Roberts has expressed dismay already with forum shopping. In 2023(?) he tried to pressure the Northern District of Texas to change its venue rules so parties couldn’t just keep filing in Amarillo. The presiding judge of the ND declined. So this has been an issue on Roberts’s radar for awhile. That may lead to some unforseen changes.

I don’t think he does it for deterence. I believe he’s thinking in terms of a bullet shield. Did you ever see that movie New Jack City and the shootout scene at the wedding?

This is the part that comes to my head every time I see him with that kid (Watch Wesley Snipes 35 seconds in): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSDVsG3dciU&ab_channel=VeeXXL

Headline is a tad ambitious. This action is procedural in nature and does not / will not address the merits of the case. The Trump admin is asking the Supreme Court to strike down the three national injunctions and limit the scope of the birthright orders to only apply to citizens in the states where it was granted.

What did we hear from Trumpers last year, that he was the candidate for peace or some such shit?

He senses it coming too, hence the reason for wearing his son like a kevlar helmet.

You hit it on the head!

I’m all about trying to obstruct what the GOP are doing…but what’s the gain in picking this fight? What’s the “better deal” to be had?

If I were a GOPer that truly cared about the national debt, I’d be pissed that Johnson is passing an extension of Biden spending priorities after he said back in December that the budget fight would come in March. Of course we’ll see how many “budget hawks” actually remember that conversation.

This being a continuing budget resolution for part of a fiscal year, it cannot be passed that way.

A nice long winding drive down the PCH seems just the ticket…

I’ve been reading a little about this concept and can’t see how it would work in reality. Sure, the Feds could “set aside” some land for one of these assholes to set up a new city. But that area would still be under the concurrent jurisdiction of a state and county. And not even the Feds can exempt a city from a state’s regulatory environment. In fact most of the things these billionaires are trying to get away from (labor laws, building codes, etc) are state regulations in the first place.

Frankly no billionaire is going to want to live in the middle of South Dakota, no matter how “free” it supposedly is.

love licking that orange man’s knob

Well, I’ve been on Lemmy for all of four hours and just threw up in my mouth. Thanks for that!

Huh, never heard of Sublime before. I’ll give that a try!

I’m sure there’s a dice app that adds the “clickity clack” effects. After that it’s practically the same lol.
