Thank god there are payday loan companies and pawn shops next to every base. Anyone want to open up a Army Surplus store? 

Never forget, after a long deployment you can get a new car.

I mean if she's the caboose in a three-person human centipede and I'm hitting her from behind, maybe, just maybe, I could get into it.

(I'm afraid I might've said too much.)

With your fist?  Maybe both fists? 😬😬

We ought to ask the Supreme Court if murder is considered an official act of President of the United States.

Don't ask a question that (1) you don't want the answer to, and (2) they've already answered.

This is exactly the perilous road many folks around here discussed when SCOTUS issued its "the President has absolute immunity for everything he does" decision.  All he has to do is make any act he takes be colorably within the scope of his duties (and hey, "execution and enforcement of our laws" sounds pretty colorable), and he has absolute immunity.  Seriously.  Even if the basis is on the "outer perimeter" of his powers, he has a presumption of immunity, and the only way it can be overcome is to show that the act was purely (as in entirely, 100%) private in nature.  But because functionally everything the POTUS does, outside of golfing, is at least tangentially within the scope of his powers and duties, that exception is meaningless.

So, all we need is an internal memo declaring Macanudo to be an active terrorist threat against the United States, he sends a Hellfire missile into your AMC Pacer as you're driving the Sonic one day, and he has 100%, complete and total immunity.  Note that the designation of you as a terrorist doesn't have to be accurate. It really doesn't even have to be rational or defensible.  The very act of designating you as such is a discretionary call within the scope of his duties, and thus....total immunity.  Ironically, if he ordered you arrested, you'd have some protections: writ of habeas corpus, all that stuff.  But if he just skips all that, and kills you....he is worry-free.  He has total immunity.

This is the end-game.  The president has the power to kill anyone -- and that necessarily means EVERYONE -- and he is not answerable for that at all.

Geez, man.  It was rhetorical.  

And I drive an AMC Gremlin I'll have you know.  

Just don't let the registration lapse, or else.....you get a Hellfire missile.  EVERYONE gets a Hellfire missile!

My Yugo is untraceable. 

Tito* knows where you are.

 

* Yes, I realize Tito died 4 years before the Yugo was introduced in the U.S. and he is, indeed, still dead.  Just like Generalissimo Franco.

OMFG, is this real? Please tell me this isn't what it's going to look like, please?!?!?! It's the most expensive version of every white trash midtown home expansion done as cheaply as possible and looks like complete dogsnit. Might as well put a street facing garage door as the main focal point from the street. 

it looks better in the full context of the buildings around it.

Trump won’t leave the WH. They will sue to let him run again since he didn’t serve consecutive terms. The Supreme Court will rule in his favor and he’ll be reelected due to massive voter infringement.

States will begin to secede and we will be off and running. 

It will be the dumbest thing ever.

Okay, so it will at least be separated by a corridor like the west wing. Still looks like dogshit, in addition to everything else fucked up about this fucking nonsense.

The massing is horrible and sucks, but it is funny watching people lose their minds over this.

The ABSOLUTELY WORST thing Biden never did was use that given authority to do what we all recognize should gave been done.

I think those posters who characterized predictions of this happening as hysteria ought show a little humility and intellectual honesty and drop in and admit they were naive, lacking in imagination, and had wildly misunderstood what was afoot. 
 

They won’t make me search them out, will they? Self respect is still something they value, right? Or have all the fatties, and aryans, and the Tx hammers, and baby’s daddy’s, and daltexhorns, and works with seeds, and credulosos, and David ds just waved goodbye to all the self worth they had managed to believe they still possessed?

I don't believe for a second he'll be president after January 20, 2029, no matter what they say.

If Gavin Newsom becomes President and tears down the Trump ballroom and replaces it with the Big Rainbow Drag party tent, I don’t want to see any conservatives moaning and groaning about it unless you’ve spoken up in the last 72 hours.
