When do we like... Revolt and stuff?

I tried to chat up this woman the other day, and she called me revolting, so I guess I am as ready as can be.

At least you presumably care about democracy. As a straight male, I would sooner spend the night with you than a MAGA judge. Don't care how you present...

I find it's easier to just stay revolting 24/7. It ain't much, but it's honest work.

Every democracy is just one bad judge away...

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago

Kind of sounds like we need to stop giving judges so much power.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 19 points 1 week ago

WE didn't. They stole specific judicial appointments for MAGA, then expanded their authority. The good news is, they have no enforcement. We could literally just ignore their rulings, and should, as they are an illegitimate court.

How can you delay something that isn't even moving?

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

Saving time by reusing the same headline week after week.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The federal judge overseeing former President Trump’s classified documents case granted his request to delay a few deadlines further so prosecutors can evaluate the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling.

Trump’s lawyers on Friday asked Judge Aileen Cannon for permission to file more documents to argue that the former president should be immune from prosecution in the case.

Trump’s lawyers say the recent Supreme Court decision that grants presidents protections for official acts should apply to the case, in which he is accused of mishandling classified records and attempting to obstruct the government from retrieving them after he was out of office.

His lawyers also noted Justice Clarence Thomas’s concurring opinion in the Supreme Court decision, where he questioned special counsel Jack Smith’s motivations and authority.

Smith argued that fallout from the Supreme Court decision doesn’t apply to the documents case because he has not charged Trump over any official acts.

Cannon was criticized after she suspended the start date of the trial indefinitely after saying she needed more time to examine pretrial motions filed by Trump’s team asking her to toss the case.
