Your Taint posted:So apparently Sean Spicer stole a mini fridge from junior staffers for his own personal use. He did this after he sent someone to ask and was essentially told to gently caress off. He then stole it in the middle of the night. Did it contain 40 tiny pastries?

Ted Cruz has been pushing for this “solution” all year, but it’s one Mitch McConnell, self-appointed conservator of Senate traditions, has been reluctant to embrace.  Apparently these rulings were made on the version before the Cruz amendment, so they'd probably have to get another ruling for that if they went forward. Not that it really matters at this point though.

He should do that passive aggressive thing where you tell someone you forgive them, as if it's obvious they did something wrong. Only instead do it with pardons.

Just to pinpoint one little tidbit of crazy, how is the "Russian Reset" a Clinton "tie to Russia" exactly? Obviously the answer is that widely-publicised foreign diplomacy by Secretary of State=shady Russian ties, but pee tapes, election hacking and massive loans=friendly relationship with our Russian allies

He's been watching Fox News which has been desperately wailing on "b...but here's a Clinton scandal!" to fill time instead or reporting on Trump-Russia. Fox has also been doing it because Hillary Bad has in the past been the easy way to get conservative audiences and Fox is bleeding viewers.

Boris Galerkin posted:
To be fair, the Constitution isn't really clear on that simply because until Trump it wasn't really something anyone would think would come up. quote:The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment. The general consensus however is that the President cannot pardon himself, only in the matter that it would allow them to carry out any crime (murder, etc) without prosecution, and that no sane founding father would have considered that allowable given the whole, "King George is a loving tyrant" view.
