Any “official order” of the president is lawful now. As commander in chief of the military, he can indeed “officially order” drone strikes on US soil. The soldier following that will be following a lawful order. The UCMJ will not apply.
SCOTUS can decline any case silently, with no justification. They can decide to not decide, ceding all power to the new American king if they like.
The military now have to murder americans if the the president says so, because he said so. That core check on tyranny, the military’s ability to refuse an unlawful order, was wiped away by this supreme court.
Soldiers swear an oath to the Constitution to not commit illegal orders, regardless of who orders them.
The issue is that the president cant issue illegal orders anymore. Since hes the commander in chief of the military, his orders are an “official act,” i.e constitutional.
The supreme court has said that the president can order military executions of anyone at all and the military can no longer legally refuse. The above is constitutional, because the people who decide what is constitutional said it is.
I mean, I would hope senators of any party would oppose a president that “legally” murders a supreme court justice, let alone 6 of them.
The fact that these 6 have it coming is besides the point.
The ratio is 50, and dems have 51 senators.
Biden can order the murder of all the right wing justices and then the senate can rubber stamp them in.
They arent dead, but they are in the millions of users, not hundreds of millions.
That is enough to sustain a social media platform, but none of them fully have the network effect going for them yet.
With federation, hopefully they won’t need it. That can be the network effect once interoperability is really here. Then everyone can still communicate, but not be beholden to any one service/owner/etc.
They announced it at summer game fest a couple of days ago, then announced it would be released in 24 hrs.
Bit of a double whammy, but a well received one.
Disengaged.
This might be entirely reasonable, depending on circumstance.
A sow is a female pig, which doesnt produce silk at all. Attempting to get silk from it would be difficult, if not impossible and futile. It wouldn’t matter how hard you try, you would get nothing.
You can get as much silk from a sows ear as you can get blood from a stone. I dont see much differnce, but i guess the sows ear phrase requires more culture context if it means “you can’t get something nice from rubbish.”
How is it not? The euphemisms all mean you “cant get X from Y.”
Both of my examples mean exactly that.
“You can’t get blood from a stone” is classic in the US. “No more juice from the squeeze” is another variant.
Solar prices are very regional. Different local rebates, labor costs, permitting requirements, etc.
Comey came out days later and said Hillary was under Federal investigation while completely omitting that Trump was under federal investigation.
This fully eclipsed the grab them by the pussy tape.
Man, imagine thinking that protesting and civic discourse is something you shouldn’t be doing in a institute of higher learning.
Dude thinks college is about getting golden check marks instead of learning how to engage with and improve society.
The data lives in both places. Your pod is all of your data held in one place. The interaction is a copy of that data sent in and out to the various social networks.
I would expect that you could adjust how much context to save around your comments. Maybe it pulls down the while thread on whatever service, or maybe just the comment you replied to with a url.
This is a bit of a deviation from the initial “Solid” concept, as that was a fully standalone controlled data warehouse that you allowed social media to access only during using the service. It was a way to have control of your data because you hold the data instead of social networks.
With the fediverse’s replication between different hosts, there wouldn’t be a way to gate this data, so the concept looks like it was adaptived. A big advantage for the fediverse? Your account is actually on you pod, not someone elses server. The data is replicated via the servers is all. You would basically be “federating” your identity with a server, not depending on it.
Something that is not nearly as good as a rocky horror picture show montage.
Wasent SPD notable for having the most Jan 6 participants of any precinct in the country?
I think they had like 6 cops either at the rally or breaching the capitol.
I wonder if this is a little “wink wink” to that as a funny little joke.
Most discrete raid cards will do the job, but look for on card caching and a battery for “quality.”
This is a good point. So the main stalls the supreme court has are to take the case and issue the opinion on the last possible day of the term like this one, and then find that whatever it was fell onto the broad immunity.
