  1. Twice, man, they did not fucking rule that Trump can deport anyone he wants under the Alien Enemies Act for the time being and that everyone has to individually challenge their detention, if they are thinking about saying he can't deport ANYONE under it later. Turn the fucking lawyer brain off for a minute and use your normal brain.
  2. The thing is, SCOTUS already effectively effectively precluded that proposal when they stayed Judge Boasberg's order that halted deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
  3. If more men could do this, there'd be a lot fewer men and boys constantly walking around with weapons on them.
  4. That’s funny. None of the conservative posters we typically see around here seem to have any issues.
  5. Ana has definitely reported all of us.
  6. Well shit, now I'm conflicted.
  7. In theory, they could do that and Roberts could kick it back down for more clarification about something basically until the heat death of the universe.
  8. Douglas Murray is just mad that they’ve embarrassed him. He prefers racism to seem intellectual and refined.
  9. Yup. There's still technically a case ongoing, but Abrego Garcia will die in that prison before his case concludes. Roberts doesn't want him coming back any more than Trump does (nobody on the right wants him to be able to tell the American public about the conditions he's faced there), and he doesn't want to issue an order that Trump more directly rejects. The only limit on how many of us can now be black bagged and rendered to foreign gulags with no functional ability to assert our rights is logistics.
  10. On the bright side, maybe when Oso and I are sharing a cell I'll get to find out whether this comes true:
  11. Look man, when you defend the IDF bombing a World Central Kitchen convey and give credence to their "lol yeah, we totally thought they were Hamas, we swear!" bullshit, I'm not obligated to pretend that you're not who you appear to be.
  12. If we manage to get through this, the next lib president is going to have to drop a Raytheon knife missile on that motherfucker.
  13. Linda McMahon helped cover up child sexual abuse and child trafficking for literal decades. She's absolute scum.
  14. I think it's more than reasonable to infer from all of statsman's posts on the topic that he really wouldn't mind if the Palestinian people were completely eliminated, so long as the Israeli government pretended that it had reason to believe each person it killed was a terrorist.
  15. And this is why guys like Ojo will say actually this is ok really and things aren't as bad as we fear, and why Roberts will pretend that his delays and prevarications were what the law compelled. Meanwhile Trump and Miller will see the obvious loophole they've been given and take full advantage of it. Most of the worst abuses the nazis committed were legal under their laws at the time, or at least not clearly illegal. It will be the same here.
  16. Roberts won't say that people don't actually have rights. He'll just allow Trump several months/years of procedural delays, until Abrego Garcia is killed by prison guards and Roberts moots the case.
  17. I think me betting my entire 401k on the Rockets to win the finals would be safer than me trying to play this market.
  18. Part of the reason the bond markets started freaking out yesterday is that everyone finally woke up and realized that everything they thought still existed to constrain Trump's worst impulses (regarding international trade) has failed. Congress refuses to assert its power, the courts are too slow to get in his way, and until his 180 yesterday it sure as hell looked like nobody in the business world had the ability to change his mind. American treasury bonds have been perceived as the safest investment in the world for a hundred years because everyone believed they were backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. Even through the S&L crisis, the dotcom bubble burst, the great recession, and the covid recession the world still thought that our debt was far and away the safest, because it was backed by the strongest economy on earth, protected by the largest military on earth, and guaranteed by a state composed of institutions that fully understood how important and how powerful the full faith and credit of the United States of America is. Even after we elected Trump once, enough guardrails held that the world still generally believed that. Now everyone realizes what a huge fucking mistake that was and our credit has been substantially diminished (at the very least) forever.
  19. In Wulaw's mind, shaving 5% off the trade deficit with China by reducing the amount of Chinese goods we buy by slightly more than American companies lose in exports to China while destroying the dollar's status as reserve currency is a win. It's like shooting ourselves in the dick and balls so that we can aim for our feet a little easier.
  20. Pim Tool, Russian Israeli agent.
  21. For 25+ years now I've seen conservatives online whine about "unsustainable" deficits. Not once have I ever seen one who was able to explain the negative consequences they seemed to be so terrified of. Now, for the past 10-15 years or so, I've constantly seen those same conservatives cheerlead for actually imposing the very consequences they never understood that they were (erroneously) warning about when they whined about deficits. They're just the dumbest fucking people alive.
  22. Hey, maybe they'll fuck something up and accidentally cancel all of our mortgages.
