They don't care is the problem. A constitutional problem.

I remember this. Janet Reno. Weird to even say this, but back then we had decent justices. Even though Scalia had started his originalist bullshit.

“Scalia - that radical lib-tard?” (Channeling what’s-her-name, 27 year old Constitutional scholar and tariff expert)

Just imagine if Scalia had decided corporations weren’t people how much better off we’d be today.

The current administration recognizes the law when it is advantageous or agrees with their opinions on a certain subject. They don’t recognize the law in any other form. They are Nazis and are in no manner are they democratic or republican in their mindset. Ignore them at your peril.

If you get a chance, read my pinned thread...not sure if you were just agreeing or something else, but I don't think we disagree?

lexie1179.bsky.social•61 days ago

Not at all.

You should never argue (or debate) an idiot, it just makes you look like one. They are experts and will beat you with their stupidity. Just inforce the law, no compliance? Fine them, put them in jail. That is where you and I would be.

joshuabhoe.bsky.social•61 days ago

???? Who was I debating? But sure, although there was a pretty good example of a debate where the smart person was explaining to the idiot that government agencies don't pay taxes...that seemed to be pretty popular...anyway...I wasn't actually debating anyone per se

teabbott.bsky.social•61 days ago

Sorry,I wasn't implying you were in a debate. I understood your post to mean"generally stop the discussion."I agree fact seem self evident.It's just an observation that debating an unreasonable person is fruitless. Thomas Paine said it was like administering medicine to the dead. Not in those words.

joshuabhoe.bsky.social•61 days ago

Sure, but the part that gets left out is that you aren't trying to convert the brain-dead, you are trying to reach everyone else who is listening (and might still have an open mind to be persuaded)...I rarely post anything to convince die-hard MAGA folks of anything (even if I reference them)

teabbott.bsky.social•61 days ago

Probably not too meny die hards here. But with one of most conseritive jurists to sit on the high court making your point, you would believe the open-minded would be swayed. But then MAGA isn't really conseritive.

joshuabhoe.bsky.social•61 days ago

Like I said, rarely trying to convert MAGA :)

“the U.S. Constitution requires due process for undocumented immigrants, as the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments protect all persons, regardless of their immigration status, from arbitrary deprivation of life, liberty, or property without due process of law”

joshuabhoe.bsky.social•61 days ago

...right

Scalia was obviously too woke, they’ll say…

patriotclyde.bsky.social•61 days ago

Trump is sabotaging our Constitution & the Rule of Law to sleepwalking us into Dictatorship! The only thing between Freedom & Trump's Oppression/Dictatorship is our Judges not under Trump's thumb! His whole criminal administration needs to be thrown in Prison!

dogstar2005.bsky.social•61 days ago

We know about SCOTUS’ “settled law”.

joshuabhoe.bsky.social•61 days ago

My point is that Scalia is arguably the king of conservative justices

dogstar2005.bsky.social•61 days ago

Absolutely.
