The Refried Presidency: Trump V 2.0 Pretty Hateful Machine/Fossil Fuel Boogaloo

Nothing says pro-family like being sexually attracted to your daughter.

 

It was good enough for Lot, who Peter declares to be righteous and distressed by the lawlessness of others! I suppose technically we don't know if he was actually attracted to his two daughters, he only had sex with them and fathered their sons/brothers.

 

They do until the SC says they don't.

 

You’ve been living under a rock.

They do until they’re filed in the northern district of Texas.
And then the nation wide injunction or stay.
And then the appeals to scotus
Then the tortured logic to choose the beneficial position

The only question is whether this court will continue to go through the effort to come up with bullshit legal reasoning or just simply write “Scoreboard” each time.

 

The extreme left: "ACAB. F**k 12."
The right: "Now, now. Let's not paint them with the same broad brush. What about the good ones? The Black cops. The gay cops..."
The extreme left: "There are no good ones. The whole damn system is corrupt. All means all. 1312."

The right: "We're gonna deport everyone..."
The left: "Hey, what about the good ones..."

It's very tricky to be in the middle.
"Thank you to the SWAT team who took out a bad guy who had a family as hostages" makes someone a bootlicker, but the moment that same person calls Derek Chauvin a moronic murderer is Antifa.

 

Not when you are suing California or New York.

 

Zeldin chosen to lead EPA. Oh boy.

He said he's been a mandate of Energy Dominance, massive deregulation and a roaring economy. Yes, as the head of ********ing EPA.

 

As a sidenote, the border czar Homan was one of the authors of Project 2025. Yeah, the orange Hitler-loving felon has no connection to it.

 

So much for his senate seat - I hope he enjoys being SoS for a little while as his political career could effectively be ending, a la Jeff Sessions and Nikki Haley.

 

So this will be interesting.

The Republicans are projected to have 220 or 221 seats in the US House of Representatives when they are seated in January. And 53 seats in the Senate.

Trump has asked New York Representative Elise Stefanik to be the UN ambassador, Florida Representative Mike Waltz to be National Security Adviser.

Senator Marco Rubio is being tapped to be Secretary of State (lol), and Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin keeps coming up in shortlists.

If he continues to pick appointments like this the US Congress will be unable to pass a budget during the first 100 days of Trump's term.

 

You're leaving out the other half of the story. Not only did Biden not make any attempt to enforce said ruling, but he meekly came to them and said, "Look, I'll pass your fascist immigration bill. Please don't hurt me?" And was laughed in his face when nothing happened.

If laws aren't enforced, it doesn't matter (this should be engraved into every visible surface Garland sees for the rest of his life).

 

Question that I don’t know the answer to…is there anything that stops those reps from serving in both roles? And is that just a norm or are they legally or constitutionally barred from doing so?

Because I could very easily see all of them either doing both…or leaving their cabinet positions officially (though not unofficially) open until their replacements are in place.

 

You cannot serve in two branches of government, with the exception of the Vice President.

Edit: went to find it, cannot. A bluesky post said Congressional Republicans have asked Trump to stop selecting congresscritters and he has ignored them.

 

Again….according to whom or what? Unless specifically barred in by the constitution…in language so clear that it might as well specifically address 6 members of the current court by name stating “We want to be perfectly clear to future justices Alito, Thomas, Rogers, Kavanaugh, Gorsich and Barrett that no…a member of the House of Representives cannot serve in both the house and the cabinet while awaiting their legislative successor to be sworn in”…this may not be the case.

 

Article I Section 6: "No Senator or Representative shall, during the Time for which he was elected, be appointed to any civil Office under the Authority of the United States..."

It would be impossible for the courts to rule otherwise.

 

One of the advantages Russia has is shit like this doesn’t even have to be true and it still damages us.

So you’re telling me he’d only lose 2-7. Am L is an L though.

 

Interesting if true

Following up on my post from a couple posts back…one of the areas Putin may have miscalculated on is trying to use kompromat to control a sociopath. Particularly one that has already accomplished his main objective…getting elected to avoid dying in jail. And one that is equally adept at pushing propaganda and annihilating the truth as Putin is. Putin could have incontrovertible proof of Trump ********ing a billygoat while giving it a reach around and all Trump has to do is call it fake news and ramp up his own propaganda machine and the maga masses will still adore him. Perhaps Putin may get his face eaten too when it’s all said and done.

 

LOL.
