Biden isn’t going to do anything
Yeah lmao if you think the Dems will do anything besides consolidate power and give it to Republicans you have Stockholm Syndrome
They are all owned by the same class of oligarchs
Get pegged by Hillary. Would pay big to see this.
Evil exit: glass the moon with nukes causing it to be 10% more reflective and drastically raise earth’s temperature
I don’t think very much of our arsenal if any can hit the moon. Maybe space force could? I doubt they could glass over more than a small mare or two if so.
maybe draw a little dick on it?
Biden was never the person to be tough on fascism, why would he start now?
Bidens 2019 promise to rich donors: “No ones standard of living will change”
Promise kept. Too bad he lost the lower and middle class with that, but it was past time for the charade to be over anyway.

while I’m not trying to excuse biden of all people, who’s responsible for the situation we’re in… but in reality he can’t do shit with the supreme court decision.
the supreme court didn’t really say anything a president does is legal. they said it would still be illegal but we will stop you from prosecuting them of they’re republicans.
the qualifications were purposely vague enough to allow republicans prosecute democrats and the supreme court hold up the prosecution saying it doesn’t qualify, and throw it away if the prosecution is in the opposite direction.
No, the qualifications weren’t vague. Official acts have absolute immunity. That’s clear.
lol. I don’t know if you’re naive or conservative trying to legitimize it as a nonpartisan decision. they will be the arbiters of what’s allowed to be an official act. if you’re a democrat they can just say nah the president can’t officially do this. that’s the whole point.
Yeah but fuck it. Biden should make them prosecute him. Or more ideally, jail the justices who ruled in favor of giving king-like powers to a president.
Their decision was so outside the bounds of democracy that something needs to be done.
if he had any interest he would’ve packed the court already.
Against expanding the court. Against single payer. Against eliminating the filibuster, Against using the 14th to get around budget hostage taking. Against womens reproductive rights. Against Sanders’s push to stop weapons shipments in the genocide. Until now against long range missiles for Ukraine, against defund and reallocate, against citizens rights when dealing with police.
against against against.
BIDEN IS RIGHT WING WHEN WILL YOU LEARN
Lies like this is why Trump won.
If you spent any time at all looking into his speeches and voting record, you’d know he was a Nixon Democrat, a Reagan Democrat, a Bush Democrat, and a VP pick to appease the GOP racists Democrat. And trump won because all of the media is right wing per the 1996 Telecommunications Act, which I will bet - without looking right now- Biden voted for.
Let’s look at his record as president:
Pro choice
Pro marriage equality
Increased funding to the IRS
Raised corporate taxes
The largest investment in addressing climate change in history and rejoined the Paris Accords
Appointed a liberal black woman to the supreme court along with over 200 more liberal judges
Enacted student debt relief for more than 5 million people
Capped healthcare costs for Medicare and allowed the negotiation of prescription drug prices
Enhanced background checks on guns and closed loopholes
Halted all federal executions
That’s the antithesis of the modern Republican party
That IRS one was a huge mistake. Instead of going after wealthy cheats he sic’d them on any depositing $600. They’re coming after me now, having made up a number without providing any evidence that I owe them and even presented numbers which show that they owe ME. The IRS is NEVER against the wealthy.
Sure, the bad guys won the election and screwed up the country. But for a brief moment in time, a lot of people got to feel really smug.
The Dems have no spines. They let the Republicans play them like fiddles while they insist on maintaining decorum and “good faith” politics.
I’m sure the Democratic Party of the 1960s would surely agree with this graphic.
Don’t do that, don’t give me cope
He may trip and fall, in which case they’ll have to squeegee him into a dustbin and pour him back into his clothes due to his complete lack of a spinal cord.
He won’t do any of it… but,
- Order the immediate publication of all government climate research data
- Lease all climate monitoring satellites to the EU for 5 years.
- Order the complete destruction of all records of US secret agents, foreign assets, etc. operating outside the US.
- Pardon everyone convicted of federal drug crimes for possession of cannibis
- Order the complete destruction of all records of immigrants who entered the country under executive order but without any other legal protection
- Order the complete destruction of all heath records of government employees, especially those regarding gender affirming care and pregnancy.
- Share as much espionage data as possible on Russia, Saudia Arabia, etc. with trusted foreign nations.
I think #4 already happened.
Yup, the only ones he didn’t pardon were the ones with “intent to distribute”, and those should probably be pardoned, and those driving under the influence, who maybe shouldn’t.

I’d be worried about the ones charged with driving under the influence. It could easily be a way of profiling, given that there isn’t any objective way to prove someone’s high and not just having consumed within a couple days. The only current way that I know of is a field sobriety test, which can be a bit subjective.
given that there isn’t any objective way to prove someone’s high and not just having consumed within a couple days
You can do blood tests for THC, which are a reliable measure.
You are probably thinking of THC-COOH urine or saliva tests, which indeed will show positive for days or even weeks after you are already sober again, since THC-COOH is a metabolite of THC that takes very long to break down and does not have psychoactive properties
Just do it how Canada does it, they have a very reasonable cut-off value for THC blood concentration that even regular consumers with a tolerance for THC won’t surpass while sober again
You can, but did they in the cases in question?
Going forward, it’s a good thing that a method exists to test if someone actually is driving high.
Oh, I’m sure lots of them were wrongfully committed based on inaccurate urine tests or field sobriety tests, no doubt about that
Warning on 3 and 5. The UK destroyed records of immigrants who were invited over to help rebuild Britain postwar and their children. Then a racist Conservative government deported a bunch of them who were children in the 1940s and didn’t have proof of legal immigration status - the only legal documentation had been destroyed. These now old people were dumped back in the Caribbean having lived in the UK for almost their entire lives. It was brutal.
Pfft, I wish.
Ask for a ceasefire, get rid of some loans, start filling empty judge positions, slap Trump in the face, something, anything.
Politicians can’t and won’t save us. We have to save ourselves.
Vigilantism is so cool. Then we become adults and join society.
I don’t think you understand what I’m saying here if you think this relates at all to what I wrote.
You surely mean populist wankers? Anarchism while supposed to become while preserving order, how fucking could it? Without centrally organized hierarchy there is no laws, no organized institutions, no naught!
If you’re not a populist you’re an enemy of the people.
Furthermore anarchism is not disorganised random people doing whatever they want. Look at the Zapatistas for a perfect example of how people can organise and work together as a society without hierarchy.
I disagree but regardless, we aren’t necessarily discussing a violent revolution that immediately and instantly destroys capitalism and the state. Frankly, that is a distant possibility at this point and I’m not really convinced it’s a good strategy even if it was possible.
But it’s undeniable that direct action, mutual aid, and horizontal organizing can be an effective counter to growing authoritarianism. There are countless examples from history and recent times.
My hope is that as we begin to build these structures at local scales, we learn more about the best practices to create these types of organizations, and the ones that work will grow in size and influence, displacing violent, hierarchical structures. A sort of evolutionary rather than revolutionary process, but still arriving at the same end eventually.
Learn to build guillotines
🔥🔥🔥
Guillotines are hard to move. A little bit of gas and a source of flame works just as well.
i suppose if we’re to eat the rich, we should probably cook them anyways
I think…and I could be wrong… that the Supreme Court has to agree with said official act.
When they’re all corrupt, they won’t agree unless you’re their sugar daddy.
This is correct. The ruling leaves it completely open to interpretation by the Supreme Court, regarding what constitutes an official act. The ruling was never a power gift to the presidency, it was a power grab by by the Supreme Court.
The judicial relies on the executive for enforcement. Dems don’t have the balls.
I thought the same. It seems clear that the Supreme Court intended that ruling for use by their political side, if a Democrat tries to use it that’s the instant they’ll overturn it.
Which would be one way to get rid of it i suppose
They’ll just rule that it couldn’t be a valid presidential act because it’s not constitutional for some batshit crazy made up reason. Meanwhile armed insurrection against the US government is FINE because 'MURCA.
He should fire them as an official act, hire new supreme court justices who on his last day in office declare presidents can no longer do whatever the hell they want and kneecap Trump from undoing shit as soon as he gets into office.
Would he do something so cool? Of course fucking not.
Honestly I’ll just take literally kneecapping Trump and call it a day, is that really a big ask?
He could also send the army to remove trump and every person supporting him…
