Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

An EO to overrule state legislation? Is that even remotely legal? Can't the states just tell him to fuck off. The courts aren't going to throw state law out the window because the president says they are bad laws. It would take an act of Congress to do that and Congress failed in the attempt earlier this year.
I think he can write whatever unenforceable executive orders he wants. Enforcing them could be illegal, which would make them unenforceable executive orders.
It’s not illegal per se - it’s just not how EOs work.
It’s also illegal. It’s a violation of the 10th amendment. Powers not delegated to the federal government and not prohibited to the states are reserved for the states or the people. States have every right to make laws restricting the use of AI within their own borders.

But the proposed EO has no power to do anything so it doesn’t really break the 10th.
(also neither a lawyer nor a constitutional scholar so this is only based on my very basic understanding. Fully prepared to hang my head in shame if someone more informed explains how I’m wrong)
If he enlists his agencies to, through legal actions, office raids, and city occupation to enforce his "powerless" EO, presumably the 10th starts being meaningful.
Fair point. I should have asked if it was 'legally sound' rather than just if it was legal.
Wasn’t trying to undercut you or anything - it just as absurd as you’ve said.
EOs are just the busywork the sycophants have given Trump to keep him happily busy marking up pages with his sharpie.

It may end up depending on the supreme court’s opinion.
