Donald Trump thinks Congress has as much clout as a potted plant.

William Consovoy, the president’s personal lawyer, told a federal judge on Tuesday that Congress was powerless to hold the president’s feet to the fire, and that the Watergate and Whitewater hearings exemplified congressional overreach. As for a House committee’s subpoena to Trump’s accountants, Rep. Elijah Cummings and all those damn Democrats might as well pound sand. The Oval Office was out of bounds for congressional oversight—even in the face of presidential corruption.

Hail Caesar! Hello praetorian. As Consovoy saw things: “That is law enforcement… Are you complying with federal law?… I don’t think that’s the proper subject of investigation as to the president.”

According to Cosovoy’s Kafkaesque syllogism, Congress is barred from investigating the president because that is a proper function of law enforcement, not Congress, and in turn, law enforcement may not investigate President Trump because he is immune from prosecution.

Confused? That’s the point.

It’s a theory

After the court hearing, our constitutional democracy stands at the precipice of being transformed into an updated version of ancient Rome, helmed by a leader who demands unaccountability for himself and tribute from the rest of us. As for Congress in this script, think part rubber stamp, part tax collector, and part tourist attraction.

Dignity. Always dignity.

I took $20 out of Roma Jr's college fund to donate and get my chance at that hat. Actually, that was 40% of Junior's college fund which was a check from his liberal aunt on the wife's side. My boy ain't going to be no elite fag.

Civilians who don't serve don't need to be granted citizenship, do they?

Just to put a finer point on it, the first line of the article states:

Immigrants serving in the U.S. military are being denied citizenship at a higher rate than foreign-born civilians, according to new government data that has revealed the impact of stricter Trump administration immigration policies on service members.

I'm not exactly sure how removing immigrant families from public housing is going to bring back Coal Jobs...but I am damn sure watching with great vigor and interest.  I have seen a thing or two in my day, but this is an absolute "must see"

I've been joking for years about what would happen if Sean Hannity and Alec Baldwin hate-fucked and made a baby.  I didn't actually think that would happen and it would grow up instantly to be a televangelist that literally looks like the both of them fucked.

Do lawyers usually just make up whatever they want the law to be and wait for a court to say, “Yeah, no.  You fucking idiot.”

You just described the typical day for every lawyer.

If what you are eliciting from the court is "yeah, no, you fucking idiot"....you ain't having a good day as a lawyer.  There ARE lawyers who have days like that.  Most of the rest of the bar and the bench shakes their heads when they show up in court.

If you are willing to put your life on the line for the red, white and blue it should be auto-gotdamned citizenship. No ifs and or buts about it.

Assuming an honorable discharge and completion of the full contract (active and reserve), I agree 100%.  I will call my congressman and senators about this.  I suggest everyone who agrees do the same.

I'm sure all the Toby Keith starter kits will be up in arms about this seeing as how it's all 'Merica all the time with them.

Wait, nevermind. Troops are the wrong color. What a fucking demented and depraved world we live in. These folks are willing to put their life on the line for a country they want to call home only to run into this gutless, bone spur faking coward who never spent one minute of his entire worthless life being anything other than self-serving who now wants to make it even harder for them to attain citizenship.

Beat me to it. 

The federalist society is most definitely an attempt by a certain group of “conservatives” to use the courts to get what they want, which is essentially to get paid, despite all the rhetoric and bullshit about certain “principles.”

Nihilism at its finest. They wantz the moooney Lebowski!
