Not so fast my plenary friend

 

The courts have been a pleasant surprise.  Even judges he appointed have been like ‘nah’ several times.

Of course the one court that matters most is still all his…

I don’t understand why they aren’t already?  Confusing.

Aren't they effectively at this point?  Any time the Trump admin loses a case they care about, they just pick up the Supreme Court bat phone and any injunction will get stayed with the quickness via the shadow docket, with the promise of "getting to the merits eventually" ...

There’s few of the national guard cases like Chicago that he has not done that with and you know he wants to smash us heathens here.  

Just as a thought experiment, if you had asked Stephen Miller three years ago about the powers of the presidency, what would he have said?

Maybe someone should join ICE just so they can shoot Vance with absolute immunity

So we're just plucking dudes off the street, giving them guns, and telling them they have "absolute immunity"?

Yeah it would be cool if every once in a while they would sooth our concerns by demonstrating restraint.

Find the hole in that logic, MAGA.

If everything ICE does is per se legal because they have absolute immunity in everything the do under color of the badge.....and a member of ICE determines that Vance is an existential threat....and said member uses deadly force to prevent Vance from harming America and Americans.....that ICE agent has absolute immunity from prosecution for his action taken under color of his badge.

That's legit unassailable logic, if you assume and accept the foundational premise: whatever an ICE agent does, he has absolute immunity.

So, which is it, JD? Do they have absolute immunity, or don't they?

But at least we are also letting them wear masks and refuse to identify themselves in the process.

But, they'd simply say it doesn't apply in this case because, well, reasons.

Then enough of us need to join ICE to, ummm, express our counter-reasons. Right?

After all, the regime has made clear that the rule of law is irrelevant. Only the rule of the gun applies:

“We live in a world in which you can talk all you want about international niceties and everything else. But we live in a world, in the real world … that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world.

We have been told what this regime thinks of the Rule of Law. And we have been told what it thinks of Rule of the Gun. Plan accordingly.
