Pellisworth posted:Yeah, the actual damage it would do if Putin released it would be pretty minimal. It's about as bad as the pussy grab tape, it would embarrass Trump but that's about it. It would prove that Russia had been blackmailing Trump, and that he was complicit. Regardless of the content, that would be enough to completely sink him.

I think it goes without saying that a failure to enforce a law in the past does not invalidate the enforcement of said law in present or future cases. Or at least, it shouldn't. Can anyone with any real legal experience weigh in on this?

Ularg posted:wait, you need a majority to convict someone for lying under oath. What the gently caress? Impeachment may not be necessary. If the state bar association where he is registered successfully brings a case against him for perjury, he will lose his license to practice law. That would make him ineligible to lead the justice department.

It has to be shown that not only is this statement false, but Sessions knows it is false and the fact that it is false matters to his testimony. Edit: beaten

Sessions is referring to the fact that he is physically melded to Trump like some Lovecraftian nightmare or that one episode of Doctor Who where the fat man absorbs all those people into his body, leaving only their faces. Ipso facto, Sessions is Trump so sessions cannot be called to testify against Trump.

The authority of the presidency does not come from living in the Whitehouse. It comes, at least in principle, from the will of American citizens. If Trump loses in 2020, that next January he loses all of his authority. And although in those months after the election he may cry and scream and throw his toys out of his crib, nothing short of a constitutional amendment or coup de'tat backed by the military can change that.

His body didn't show signs of abuse when he returned, and I believe the prevailing theory is that the brain damage was most likely triggered by him attempting to hang himself. If the government suspects foul play, it would be a different story, although if that were the case, we'd probably already know it. Seripus question, because i honestly don't know: if he did try to hang himself, wouldn't there be bruising around his neck?

The Official Something Awful Trump Thread Poll shows it's a dead-ringer for Handel, conclusively adding to that result that "nothing matters", "the democrat party sucks", and "America is dead and gay". But seriously don't get your hopes up. It'll just hurt that much more if they are crushed.

theflyingorc posted:There's still going to be a wave. The question is if the wave will be big enough. This election is being used by both sides as a litmus test for 2018, but it matters so much more than that. Ossoff winning the election will probably be the only thing that could happen to scare the GOP into watering-down the AHCA and being careful what radical laws they pass. Because the only thing they care more about than killing poors is retaining power.

You know I am starting to think that this thread really is cancerous. Everyone here (aside from the few trolls) has an intense emotional investment in politics, as if the success of the democratic party is the sole cause of and limiting factor for our happiness. So when the democratic party faces a failure it is easy freak out, become depressed or start fighting. And because we all feel the same about this, these emotions spread quickly. So, I want to try to stop this train-wreck now and say that we are all putting too much stock in this election. Hell, most of you don't even live in GA-06. Life is complex, and there are other ways we can improve our lives and find happiness. I am going to stop reading this thread and continue preparing for my grad school applications.

The problem with Kennedy retiring is that the last time there was a decision on political gerrymandering, Kennedy was the only one on the fence. He asserted that political gerrymandering was probably unconstitutional, but that without a reliable statistical method of proving when/Where it exists the court could not stop it. Now that there are ways of identifying it, and a new case is coming down the pipeline, we really need him on the court.

Jesus loving Christ. This really has the chance to completely gently caress up lgbtq lives in the US. This one case could decide whether or not a doctor has the right to deny treatment to a gay man who is bleeding to death, whether or not landlords can refuse to allow us to rent from them or buy houses, whether or not loving cashiers at grocery stores can let us buy food. gently caress. The only silver lining to this is that the court may implement a very limited ruling to avoid controversy. RBG better not loving die. For the sake of all of us.

mdemone posted:No, this is only about cases in which "expression" is the issue. Like wedding cakes expressing beliefs the bakers don't hold. In the conservative lexicon, religious expression isn't just about the creation of things such as wedding cakes that could be used to express ideas. It covers anything a person might do in accordance with their religious beliefs.

ThisIsWhyTrumpWon posted:I guess LGBT couples who want to marry will have to find a caterer who approves. Not my biggest concern at this point in time. Supreme court cases are pretty much never about the initial grievances that led to the case. The big question in this case is whether or not private entities or individuals can be allowed to deny goods or services to individuals based on religious beliefs and sexuality. That IS important.

The democratic party needs to just openly threaten that if the GOP asserts collusion isn't illegal or is not treated as illegal, they will just start petitioning for funds from Israel, Ukraine, Iran, and whoever else has an interest in a competent US foreign policy. At least, they would need to do this if the GOP wouldn't take that as justification for their misdeeds.
