his fucking face is so goddamn revolting.
I should really just keyword filter all headlines with the word “slammed” in it.
I had "slams", but not "slammed". Fixed.
Some days you see this shit and wonder why you participate in a meaningless system that lets convicts be President.
Like as naked apes on a floating rock in eternal space I gotta wake up every morning to go to work and "be a good worker" while this motherfucker breaks laws and wants to make up shit as he goes.
Cool. No wonder I have no more motivation to be a good worker anymore.
I wouldn't mind a system that allowed ex felons to be elected. I very much mind one that allows a current felon to be elected. I don't know what amount of time we should let pass but a felony shouldn't be the end of your civil rights.
But like. Are you stopping him? He's been doing shady and illegal shit for ages, and yall can point out its illegal and shady, but like. Are any of those critics actually stopping him or nah
Like please, I want some good news, and Moral High Ground does not count
This is maybe the 8th headline over seen today saying Trump was "slammed" for doing something illegal and/or stupid.
That's kind of like doing something, right? /s
Things haven't gotten bad enough yet. Let's hope they don't but I'm not feeling optimistic
The Russian vacuum between his ears had a short circuit.
Slammed 💥 🦹♂️
🙄
Slam it all you want, it means nothing until someone actually does something.
"SLAMMED!", I pronounce into the face of the arresting ICE agent.
"S-S-S-SLAMMED!", I cry out as the DHS official drags me down a hallway towards my El Salvadorian prison cell.
"Seee-Lamb-da!", I exclaim as the door to my cell clangs shut.
Alright boys, slam 'em
There's not much holding him back. He's been defying cour rulings left and right. The Dems are spineless and we're fucked.
I declare Trump's presidency void. He isn't obeying laws; he's no longer a legitimate president. He is a dictator. And a hypocrite any time he enforces laws of any kind.
To clarify, I think someone who has broken laws CAN enforce them without being a hypocrite, but only if they have taken accountability for the laws they have broken.
This is the oath presidents must make before exercising any official powers or duties:
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
He has been very obviously doing the complete opposite of that. The GOP has some pretty flexible mental gymnasts in their circus, but I don't think even they will be able to dodge this one.
My understanding of the supreme court ruling was that he has immunity only for "official acts". So... If he violates this oath, he isn't authorized to exercise any official powers of the presidency, and thus anything he's doing isn't official! Right? I hope so. It'd give me something to look forward to as we suffer through the next 4 years.
As far as I remember it was a two part protection. Any official act, no matter the intent, is protected. So as one dissenting justice pointed out, ordering seal team six to assassinate a political rival could be protected as it falls within the powers of the president to direct the military. Besides that, any criminal action outside of that overly broad protection still cannot be prosecuted using any evidence that comes from the actions of the president in their capacity as such. So if the president has a phone call logged in official records in which they outline or perform an illegal act, those logs will be inadmissible in court, only evidence reltaed to the president as a private individual is admissible. The stormy daniels case had to throw out evidence because of this, despite being related to crimes committed before the election even.

SLAMMED
I had this in my office Fantasy Dictator Pool: before end of March, POTUS will attempt to undo Biden's pre-emptive pardons.
But I sincerely hope my other predictions DON'T come true. They're much darker.
Europe watching the USA lately:
If we get through this presidency, and that’s a big if, then we’ve got a fascist infestation and their enablers in congress that we’re going to need to take care of.
Time to truly drain the swamp by fucking force.
Don't disrespect swamps like that, they're a vital ecosystem. This is more like excising the cancer.
Maybe we'll get lucky and he'll go through with his denuclearization plan and that will finally be the straw that breaks the camel's back and the military will take him out.
How depressing that our best case scenario is a military coup.
There is pretty much no scenario on earth that has our military take him out. It just won't happen and we should stop believing in this pipe dream.
Wait, is that Donald "I can declassify documents by thinking it" Trump who is tweeting?
Oh, that’s what it takes to finally call him a dictator?
Druggie ass midnight rant. Trump scratched his ass and accidentally had a finger go up his hole and his druggie brain got triggered with some ridiculous nonsense. It's the only real explanation for this shit. It's non-stop and we're less than 100 days in.
If he opens that box, then come the next president Trump might finally end up in jail. But nah! Go ahead fucker! Let's see this get interesting. Like the new ROTC students required to wear KKK hoodies. That wouldn't be at all sus. We know the guy is out of his mind full dementia empty skull. The world just needs that one last straw.
And may I remind us all how happy Duterte was just a few years ago. Jailing people, murdering, etc. The guy even silenced TFC so Filipinos abroad didn't need to bother with the stuff he was doing at home. Now he's in jail. Not easy, pay your way out jail. This is Saddam Hussein hanging jail. The consequences for crimes against humanity need to be real. So just let us enjoy our daily rat race until we too end up in Guantanamo accidentally. Worrying about things that are coming on to others is fruitless. But we should hope that the international court at least gets putin.
Biden had the chance to do that in 2020. He should have arrested Agent Krasnov and his henchmen on the first day of his presidency, and detained them in isolation without bail or access to the media, until their trials were resolved.
Instead he appointed a weak Reoublican as his AG who gave hime a 2 year head start to run out the clock.
The Dems had the perfect chance to rid ourselves of the MAGA scourge, and defend our country, and they totally abdicated their responsibility. It will be 100 times harder to take it back now, and I don't see it happening without violence.
