We Are At War!

[Marener]

And over the years congress delegated much of that authority to the executive branch

Congress never intended the president to use that authority to this extent.

Sez you

The authority exists

You just dont like the way trump is using it

 

[Marener]

SCOTUS should rule against Trump because he’s missing the authority and is contrary to the intent of the legislation.

I dont pretend to know what nine or even five unelected demigods in black robes are going to do

And neither should you

I remember after 9/11, when we learned how Al Qaeda was at war with America, even though we weren't at war with them.

Deja vu.

Yes, that was when Rush Limbaugh was telling his flat earth losers that Osama Bin Laden didn’t exist.

How can this judge not realize this? Patriotic Americans support Trump in his actions and these crazy judges are standing in his way. How can people not see reality?

---The Trump administration has invoked the Alien Enemies Act -- an 18th century wartime authority used to remove noncitizens---

2nd judge rules Trump's use of Alien Enemies Act for deportations is unlawful

A judge has ruled that the Alien Enemies Act "was not validly invoked" by the Trump administration, marking the second time its use of the AEA has been deemed unlawful.

There is no war.

Using “war” as a rhetorical excuse doesn’t count.

If it were a democratic president, they would rule against them.

 

[Mac-7]

Yes, that was when Rush Limbaugh was telling his flat earth losers that Osama Bin Laden didn’t exist.

I seriously doubt you can document that

You mean the way Roberts cast the deciding vote FOR obamacare?

The major questions doctrine. Congress gave the president the authority to change student loans but SCOTUS wouldn’t let Biden do it.

Forgiving loans by executive fiat seems a bit too far to me

Anyway it does not matter what I think, unelected demigods can call it anyway they see it

But crashing the global trade economy by executive fiat isn’t too far?

 

[Mac-7]

Not for me it isnt

We must end our dependence of chinese manufacturing

But there is no reason the 30, 40, or 50-year old adults should not repay their student loans

Is there any principle that explains why one is too far but one isn’t, other than you agree with one?

 

[Mac-7]

Is there any principle that explains why one is too far but one isn’t, other than you agree with one?

Yes

Its called “I say so”

The same reasoning you would use if your side won the election

It makes sense to me that students should pay back what they owe

And at the same time that its foolish to be at the mercy of our enemy in foreign trade

But thats just how I see it

 

[Marener]

Yes

Its called “I say so”

The same reasoning you would use if your side won the election

And at the same time that its foolish to be at the mercy of our enemy in foreign trade

This country wasn’t founded on legal double standards you’re so happy to promote.

They are not the same no matter how much neo-marxists in academia want more money

 

[Mac1958]

There is no war.

Using “war” as a rhetorical excuse doesn’t count.

Pretty much everything is hyperbolic and over-the-top in their world. Disagree with them, and you're "evil" and a "commie" and they're at "war" with you. That's what they hear from the voices they choose to trust, and like everything else, they repeat it.

That's why Trump is such a great match for them. He talks like that constantly.

 

[Marener]

They are not the same no matter how much neo-marxists in academia want more money

The only difference is that you like one policy and don’t like the other.

That’s not a difference that matters legally.

And scouts hasn’t said the law is illegal, so Trump has constitutional obligation to enforce it

Trump is constitutionally obliged to be in prison.
