I’m hard pressed to think of a fast food place that does have an animal as a mascot. McDonald - Creepy clown Burger King - Creepy king Jack in the box - Creepy jack in the box

I wonder if there's a separate aquatic mascot for every different species that they eat. Tuna, salmon, mackerel, etc.

As awful as things are, every day I’m grateful that these guys are clowns and not intelligent, calculating, ruthless actors. People are clutching pearls about the death of our republic now, but we are so lucky everything is being exposed by these novices, hucksters and two-bit conmen

The only real question left is who leaked it. Trump's legal team leaks like a sieve so they're the obvious suspect. But the brief is so badly written that this may be a rare Mueller leak just to show what a bunch of bozos they're dealing with. On the other OTHER hand, a legal team this incompetent wouldn't notice how badly written it was and leak it as a trial balloon for what appears to be a legal argument for an imperial presidency.

Is the Magna Carta still applicable in Common Law and can you cite it in a court case? Asking for a friend.

Asking for a friend. unless you're a judge, citing the magna carta is just identifying yourself as a complete nutcase to anyone who is reading your brief who is going to be veering hard into sovereign citizen territory within a page or two if you are a judge you're probably just identifying the decision as a pompous and bad decision

Also, assuming the president can't pardon himself, what in the constitution prevents Congress from passing legislation effectively doing the same thing?

What would a legislative pardon look like that wouldn’t run into a separation of powers issue? The President can pardon because it’s specifically in the Constitution. Congress has no such power. Just because the President arguably can’t pardon himself doesn’t automatically vest Congress with the power to do the same. Of course if we get to that point I suppose it’s fitting that our Republic died due to the Air Bud rule.

Among other concerns, the Magna Carta is written in Latin so you would at least want to cite a translation. US. v. Tigano, 880 F.3d 602, 611 (2d Cir. 2018) posted:The Magna Carta incorporates this requirement in its early thirteenth century language establishing basic guarantees of justice: "We will sell to no man, we will not deny or defer to any man either justice or right." Id. at 223, 87 S.Ct. 988 (emphasis added) (quoting Magna Carta, c. 29 (c. 40 of King John's Charter of 1215) (1225), translated and quoted in Sir Edward Coke, The Second Part of the Institutes of the Laws of England 45 (Brooke, 5th ed., 1797) ("Coke's Institutes")).

Congress has no such power. Just because the President arguably can’t pardon himself doesn’t automatically vest Congress with the power to do the same. Congress could pass a law making everything he did legal for a President to do. Then repeal the law after he leaves office, but then he’s safe because it would be ex post facto. It would take a lot of accomplices, but he already has that in Congress. I mean, the rule of law is more fragile than we think. It requires good faith from a majority of stakeholders.

Congress can't pardon, and can't make criminal conduct un-criminal after the fact. If they tried, of course, we're all too fat and lazy and glued to our phones and TVs to do anything about it other than violently and impotently bleat into our internet shout jars until we run out of breath and then flip back to CSI: Manitoba/Facebook/Jezebel: Op Ed section and look for the next hit of digital dopamine before falling asleep with a smug smile on our jiggly chins.

Actually, for some reason, this seems to be the season for it, $160 to $180 was in June 2016. Eidt: And I guess prior to OCI makes sense. My hope is that Milbank wanted to jump in front and make a quick splash before other firms go to $200, possibly to *maybe* save some face if they stay at $190. Is that the most optimistic reading of this, and do I have any actually knowledge of what's going on? Yes it is, and no I do not, but whatever.
