It's like I'm back on Reddit 😂

I don't write any of this for you. This is a form of self harm for me. 😘

There's disagreement among scholars.

“I didn’t expect such a broad definition of absolute immunity for a president for criminal acts,” said Berkeley Law Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, one of the nation’s preeminent constitutional scholars. “While the court leaves many issues unresolved, it is a dramatic and stunning affirmation of broad, absolute immunity for a president.”

Berkeley political scientist Terri Bimes, a scholar in the history and operation of the U.S. presidency, called the court’s ruling “dangerous.”

“The decision seems to permit the president to use the power of the office to commit acts that are illegal, that are criminal,” Bimes said. “The fact that these actions are being taken in the name of the presidency, that they’re official acts, makes them immune from prosecution. That is really problematic.”

I've hated Israel since they crushed Rachel Corrie with a fucking bulldozer in 2003, don't you fucking accuse me of not being aware of this genocidal settler-colonial state until recently. You accuse me of spreading propaganda and then post a fucking article that says the US is helpless and is legally forced to keep selling Israel weapons without limits forever. "Aw shucks, there's nothing Biden can do, he has to keep giving them billions of dollars of bombs to decapitate children in concentration camps!"

Let me help you understand how all this works.

The US can pull out of any agreement it wants. See: the Iran nuclear deal. This horseshit about the US being legally required to support Israel is mystification, the US can basically just do whatever it wants. This doesn't even get into the new Supreme Court decision, which basically just gave the President unlimited executive powers to execute the office's official duties.

This is one of the US's partners in the war:

America loves Nazis, whether they're Ukrainian Neonazis or Zionazis.

Okay, here you go.

Here's what fucking Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor said in her dissent:

“The President of the United States is the most powerful person in the country, and possibly the world. When he uses his official powers in any way, under the majority’s reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.” Sotomayor went on to write, “In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law,” she wrote.

Biden can kill all his enemies and that's the law now. As long as it is an official act, it's constitutional.

I heard an interesting idea on DemocracyNow

I was trying to lay out a process that would create an organized and very democratic and transparent process to choose a new nominee. It would basically compress the primary process into a month.

There are 400-plus members of the Democratic National Committee. It would convene, nominations would be open, and we would get a requirement that anyone who wanted to be nominated for president or run in this primary would have to have the signature of 40 sitting members of the Democratic National Committee, including at least four from each of the four regions of the party. Now, since there’s only 400-plus members, very few people could actually do that. It would be people that we know. It would be Governor Whitmer, it would be Cory Booker, it would be Kamala Harris and Governor Newsom and Governor Pritzker and maybe Governor Shapiro from Pennsylvania — people who already have a constituency and have states with members, enough members on the DNC that they would be able to get the required 40 in a week’s time.

Then they would begin to campaign. They’d be certified by the secretary as legitimate nominees. They would show they have a national base of support among elected Democratic Party officials. And then the party would organize a couple of town halls, televised town halls, where the candidates would appear. We’d go to the convention, and it would be like the convention of 1960, where it would be wall-to-wall campaigning for delegates, the elected delegates, most of whom are Biden delegates. He would release them.

And it would be pretty exciting. The networks, the media would cover it wall to wall, as opposed to the way they cover these scripted conventions now, which maybe give it an hour or two each night. We’d have nominations from the floor. We’d have the speeches given. We’d have the horse trading taking place between state delegations. And an eventual nominee would be elected, probably after more than one ballot. But people would leave the convention with the new nominee energized, with wind in that nominee’s sails.

But as for what I am going to do? I'm going to keep screaming at them to do their fucking jobs!

The powers just granted to him by the Supreme Court.

Any "official act" done by the President is now constitutional. He couldn't, like, shoot Trump at the next debate with a gun he smuggled on stage. What he could do is, as President from the Oval Office, order Trump's motorcade to be droned.

You accused me of gaslighting people, like I'm some kind of abuser. That put me in a really bad place.

Here's reality: Biden is going to get me killed because he won't do what is best for the country and either resign or stop Trump permanently, and you all are telling me to support this genocidal mummy who would rather get me killed than do the right thing.

Maybe that makes me a little fucking stressed?

I'm trans in a red state, they're going to kill me, and the only option I'm allowed to vote for a genocidal mummy who is going to fucking lose because he's too stubborn and old to realize he has to drop out. Meanwhile, smarmy fucking liberals want to tell me it's too dangerous for Biden to use his unlimited executive power handed to him by the Court, and they're frog marching me to my death.

So yeah, my first instinct was to wish Biden would do literally fucking anything to stop Trump, and he won't and we're all fucked.

EDIT And I'm a stupid fuck and hit enter too quickly sometimes and then think of more stuff I want to say or change my mind about what I wanted to say, and now that I was "caught" being a stupid indecisive fuck because I edited a few minutes after posting I lose this argument so whatever

Weird how if Biden uses any of the power he has to stop Trump from becoming Fuhrer then it will cause a civil war, but when Trump actually uses that power to become Fuhrer he will face no obstacles.

Yet somehow Biden is powerless to stop him. 🤔
