A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

@Gradually_Adjusting @wintermute_oregon I think it depends on how this ruling gets applied/interpreted.

There is a real risk, pointed out by #Sotomayor, that federal procedures could legitimize illegal acts like assassinations. However, one could just as easily presume that such actions would be unconstitutional and therefore fall outside the bounds of ordinary business, and thus do not meet the criteria for "official acts".

I wish this ruling had a bit more precision.

Hard not to assume we'll see the implementation will end up working out in the favour of this court's political allies. In fact, if it was precise enough that both sides could apply it the same way, I'm sure they'd find that a flaw.

Republicans just made Biden KING OF AMERICA!

Well if he wanted to be. Democrats are too fucking spineless to abuse their power even when given permission. That's exactly why the court ruled the way it did. They know biden won't abuse his power.
