National emergencies for all the things! We'll keep using "President" as the official title of the office, just like "Consul" in the Roman Empire.

Sanguinia posted:Why are people talking poo poo about people voting for this funding bill like Sinema and Jones? It's great that the New Dems are standing on the Not One Dollar line, I'm plenty pissed about new fencing in any amount. But if this doesn't pass because of a lack of Dem votes it will be an incredible political coup for the Rs. Anyone who thinks the narrative in that situation would not be Obstruction Dems Responsible For Second Shutdown are dreaming. Every dem that voted for this is a backstabber and should be voted out.

Nail Rat posted:So who initiates the challenge to this that ties it up in court and effectively stops it? How does that work? Someone who will be directly affected (most likely a border landowner) will file a suit in the relevant court. That court will issue a stay ordering that no related actions may be taken until the suit is resolved. Much later, it will be argued and ruled upon. It will then be appealed by whoever lost, with the stay still in place and/or the land still not in the government's possession, consuming even more time. Given how complicated eminent domain tends to be, there's a very real chance that this case will outlast the Trump administration. If a Democratic president enters office and the suit is still ongoing, he can summarily withdraw from it and allow the landowner to win with no wall ever having been built.

nine-gear crow posted:Also to all you people who thought McConnell had a will of his own and would actually resist Trump on any "red line" issue Except this is what Mitch wants? Its just McConnell trading some vague promise of supporting something later so that Trump signs what he needs now. McConnell does that all the time and ask Susan Collins or anyone else who has been around awhile what Mitch's promises mean. "Resist" Trump is a weird way of putting it. McConnell has a better political mind than Trump. He knows the Wall isn't getting funded and they can't afford shutting down the government again. He doesn't want the national emergency because he knows that creates a new mess of problems to deal with, but its the thing that gets this wall and shutdown mess resolved and placates the baby. I don't see how anyone can reasonably spin this as a Trump win. He was enough of a petulant child that McConnell gave more than he wanted to, but Trump still didn't get anything out of this. Ann Coulter's right on that (because she oddly is also smarter than Trump). STAC Goat fucked around with this message at 22:12 on Feb 14, 2019 |

I'd like to read about it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aV9s1zJ_Psg I’m sure it comes as a huge surprise that police don’t like reporters and will often target them for harassment during protests. See also: Charlottesville where the police protected the Nazis even after they fired guns at protestors. But the big name pundits almost never interact with police on that level, so their thuggish and anti-democratic behavior is met with faux shock.

While the eminent domain challenges are the obvious ones for an emergency declaration, Puerto Rico is ready to go today with a challenge to taking away their recovery funds. I'd guess they get to the courts first.

If someone has video of a cop shoving a pregnant woman around they should slap that poo poo all over the news at night. The pig won’t get in trouble (he’ll most likely get a promotion for beating up a pregnant lady) but at least the people can see how loving bad cops are and how our national emergency should be based around disbanding police forces and creating a new ground-up citizen-based policing system.

That poo poo is really bad and needs to stop immediately, but not showing there's a precedent for cops preventing reporters from questioning politicians before a vote. If your point was simply "reporters get harassed by police" I don't disagree but I don't think it's quite what was being referred to as new.

And was BFF with the cat. They were an efficient team; cat murdered all the small animals it could, pig came behind and ate them.   e: oh, and he'd get up on the couch to sleep while no one was looking. He was a house pig until he got too fat for the dog door. ReidRansom fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Feb 14, 2019 |

Although video or not, cops pushing around privileged white people is about to get way more airtime than the six pigs that just brutally executed a black person sleeping in his car, and I feel pretty gross about it.

pokie posted:Who the gently caress are the 13% of racist Dems? Do you remember a few days back when we were talking about that study showing a bunch of evangelical support for israel and their reasons being crazy? Well when you look at the (poorly done) study, it is clearly really conservative people but still like 15% (or some other low double digit number) self identified as democrat. Regardless of how far away from democratic/liberal platforms people are, some of them will still claim to be those.

I dunno I’m pretty sure arresting reporters who didn’t do anything illegal to prevent them from covering an event is pretty analogous to shoving reporters out of the way so they can’t question senators. The framing of “how can the police be acting like this!?” is bullshit because that’s how cops always act.
