… in reference to the right to remain silent, that’s wrong. Miranda rights don’t cover double jeopardy so technically they aren’t exactly the same. But effectively they are.

Did you read the same comment as me? I read that as “why would the powers that be wilfully give up the path to that power?”

They’re not saying “obey”. They’re saying this shouldn’t be a surprise.

Bad move. Your right to remain silent doesn’t mean you get to pick and choose which questions you answer on the stand should you choose to testify. Instead he could give plenty of information to his lawyer who could then rabidly attack the planted gun and prove malfeasance.

Amazing how two words just completes the headline.

when the general populace voted for an continue to support this

Did they though? Only 63.4% of voting eligible citizens voted in '24. And of those only 49.8% voted for trump. He has never won a majority of the popular vote. Ever. It’s due to the electoral college and the cap on representatives in the house. This gives a significant advantage to lower population states that typically lean republican. Those rules seemed to make sense before we could reasonably collect, count results, and communicate that info in a day. Those rules no longer make sense but as it benefits the republicans they will hold that hill until they die. This country would be shaped very differently if we used the popular vote.

I think it’d be a good thing. I can’t imagine a world where social media companies comply. They’d just block it in that state. The uproar and backlash would be immediate. It would likely be political suicide for anyone supporting it.

Phrasing!

And if they located him via illegal means, none of that is admissable…

Devil’s advocate and IANAL, but illegally obtained evidence can still be admitted so long as at some point there was a legal means to obtain it. I’m sure there’s a ton of nuance that goes into the specifics and especially regarding this case, but it’s not like that stuff is completely tossed out of it was found illegally.

He won a plurality of the popular vote. I said he never won a majority.

He won a plurality of the popular vote. I said he never won a majority.

In fact, Trump has NEVER won a majority of the popular vote.

Their constitution starts and ends at 2.

I love seeing all the tacticool “operators” with their tricked out ARs, bulletproof vests and helmets, flexicuffs, and other shit but look like they get gassed slowly ascending the stairs from their mother’s basement. Rule #1 in the zombie apocalypse is Cardio.

Also society isn’t going to collapse overnight. If it does it will be a slow crawl until going full Gravy Seal is warranted. They need to survive until then.

Is the most important test the test takers will take. For the test givers, it was Tuesday.

Hey Google. How do you short trump’s meme coin?

Pretty sure you have to prove actual damages. The town drunk going off on one of their typical rants that won’t convince anyone wouldn’t be considered defamatory.

Except the point is that if you say you would eat ice cream, you don’t get the ice cream. Legally speaking as a juror you are supposed to uphold the law. If the judge or prosecutor has any inkling you might nullify, they’ll boot your ass out of the pool in a hurry.

MAGA Reich… although they’d probably view that as a badge of honor.

and Trump is just the secretary.

He’s the Assistant to the President.

What am I consuming? I’ll give them free info. Pretty much nothing I’m seeing ads for.
