"If somebody changed, deleted, scrubbed a federal record with the intent of deceiving the public or intent of deceiving anybody, it could very well be a violation of federal law," said Larry Noble, a former general counsel at the Federal Election Commission.

I'd be interested to hear what is considered to be meant, legally, by the phrase "to provide for...the general welfare" considering that apparently doesn't include anything, from education to healthcare to even the assurance of safety or access to the vote

this prickly question has been avoided by for whatever reason just deciding the preamble doesnt have legal standing

libertarians believe the preamble holds zero power, which is how they constitutionally support the exact opposite of the constitution

It's really quite surprising how much your brain apparently turns to a mush of FYGM after age 50

Back then I am sure that was still under life expectancy but lol they probably annoyed the actual working class more than anything else

with the exception of Franklin, it was mostly turbochuds over 50 then, though back then it wasn't lead poisoning but rather 50 years of drinking a case of madeira a day

he's probably talking about Bernard Marx Sanders, who has had a job that pays 175k/year for like 3 decades and thus has some serious fuckin scratch in terms of what proles consider wealth

the preamble was thought at the time to hold legal authority. the whole first day of the Pennsylvania ratifying convention was spent debating whether “we the people” destroyed the whole concept of America because it implied a union of people rather than states.

yes, alright, he's guilty. he's guilty of giving too much. he's guilty of loving his children too much and giving them a good upbringing. he's guilty of being there when you need him. he's guilty of laughing too much and hugging too much. he's guilty of seeing the cold embers in all of us and taking the flame right from his chest and spreading that joy until the whole world is lit up.

so, you go ahead and arrest him. you make this living hellhole just a bit darker because you can't handle someone that good actually walking around.
