Tulsi is still a leftist on most issues. This pick would make a lot of sense given that Trump is pathologically unable to choose good people for his administration. If he picks her, she’ll be an awful combination of Pence, Barrett and Milley.

Well look at AAVE. It’s a sad facsimile of the English language. Stuff like not being able to use the correct be verb, or misusing words like ratchet instead of wretched because they sound similar.

even though none of these ideologies are as idiotic as Islam.

I dunno, at least Islam has relatively functional societies. Communism can't even claim that. Not that Islamic societies are good, just that Communism sucks even more.

China's biggest problem is that thanks to their one child policy, most of the PLA is made up of only sons. And the Chinese people would revolt if high casualties wiped out lots of family's only heirs.

Alternatively, the Philippines is cheap to live in and the people there mostly speak English due to being a former U.S. territory. And Southeast Asia has been resistant to globohomo so far.

Amazingly, all of the possible replacements poll even worse than Biden except for Big Mike.

Once again I feel like this is why we fail. I don't wanna see him canceled because some groupies revoke consent 30 years later. Whereas If I could just be more tribal, I would join the mob.

Correct, this is why we fail.

Do not ever give any grace or benefit of the doubt to any leftist no matter the circumstances. They would never extend it to you. Assume that Gaiman is a serial rapist until proven otherwise, and he has the burden of proof to prove his innocence.

I don't know that I came away from it with anything other than "you usually can't sue the Federal government, unless they pass a law saying you can, unless it's one of a narrowly defined (and apparently arbitrary) set of the circumstances that the Supreme Court says are cool.

Yeah, that's a pretty good summary of the Bivens doctrine. The Anwar al-Awlaki court decision is frustrating because the court says U.S. citizens have a Fifth Amendment interest in not being blown up in drone strikes, buuuuuuuuut because this is in the area of national security and the military, the plaintiffs lose. It's a super arbitrary decision. Sure, his rights were violated by the feds but no you can't do anything about it.

I could be wrong on the timeline but I believe that either the check to Cohen or the recording of the payment in the accounting system occurred during the first month of his presidency. But the alleged sex acts and settlement all occurred long before he was president.

As a quirk in the law, the United State Marine Corps is NOT covered by Posse Commentates, and as such has been deployed in cases of extreme levels of violence, typically when LE are being killed.

It was amended in 2021 to include the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, and the Space Force.

This seems incorrect. Ordering Seal Team 6 to kill his opponent is not within the President's power under the Constitution, no?

The President would probably be immune from prosecution for that order under Trump, but per the Constitution, Art I, Sec III, the President could be impeached and then tried criminally:

Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.

The President is already barred from using the military in civil criminal contexts under the Posse Comitatus Act. The President is also barred from murdering someone under 18 U.S. Code § 1111. The key here is that under Trump, the President would need to be impeached first in order to strip them of Presidential Immunity.

Note that a big thing that leftists are missing here is that Presidential Immunity does not extend to employees and agents of the executive branch. Any members of the military or law enforcement who carry out illegal acts can be prosecuted under existing law. So the Seal Team Six (its no longer called that, BTW) members who murder the Supreme Court would be guilty of murder and can be tried for murder under existing law.

The President can and has ordered the military to assassinate Americans overseas, and nobody tried to prosecute him for it.

Correct. Obama is probably criminally immune from prosecution unless he is impeached. But the drone operators could be charged. The family members of Anwar al-Awlaki tried to civilly sue Obama Administration officials but were unsuccessful. There is a federal law that allows people to sue state officials for their violations of civil rights called 42 U.S. Code § 1983. But conveniently, the feds have not made a similar law for when federal officials violate someone's civil rights. There is a common law version of § 1983 called the Bivens doctrine. But Bivens is narrowly interpereted and the court reviewing the al-Awlaki lawsuit did not want to extend it to cases of military and national security.

KIA2 came about because the users disagreed with the mods of KIA in part over the moderation and how strict they wanted to keep the topics to ethics in video game journalism. Over time, KIA2 became a more general social commentary forum that includes but is not limited to video game journalism.

That it's all kind of culture and not just video games?

Correct. This is a social commentary forum. If you want ethics in video game journalism specifically, then c/KotakuInAction is there for it.

I think it kills all of the federal cases against him. I would say it arguably also applies to the Georgia case too. But it probably has no bearing on the New York case. It seems like a stretch to say that paying Cohen the settlement funds and recording the payment in the accounting system was a "core" presidential act.

We know from his own tweet that he engaged in sexually provocative conversations with someone that he knew was or believed to be 17. We have also heard from multiple sources now that he was investigated by authorities and was cleared. What is new and still rumor until verified is that it was some sort of fishing expedition by Twitch employees.

Multiple things can be true at once. Dr Disrespect was creeping on a minor or someone that he believed was a minor. Dr Disrespect also apparently did nothing illegal. Twitch employees were also possibly involved in the whole thing.

Well yes, that's why most MTF trannies are "transbians". They still want women, even in their grotesque form.
