I don't give a shit what he chooses or declines to rule out. It's not his fucking choice. Stop writing about it as if his opinion matters. Write about it like it is: unquestionably illegal, not a debate, not his call, not going to fucking happen.

It was ALSO only 13 states, no overseas territories, did not have a standing military, was saddled with enormous war debt, and the major industry was farming, largely supported by slave labor. I know techbros are fucking illiterates, but goddammit, read some history for fucking once.

The wealthiest man in the world has fully purchased the federal government of the United States. This is one of the most extraordinary crises in the history of this country and you need to ask whether your elected representatives are acting like it.

1/ Great Q. This is the difference between "our judges" and "their judges." "Their judges" - Aileen Cannon, Matthew Kacsmaryk, Reed O'Connor, pretty much the entire Fifth Circuit, and somewhere between 4/9ths and 6/9ths of the Supreme Court - reach the political result they want & work backwards.

This clip is as bad as everyone is saying it is. Disqualifying. He has No. Idea. What. Is. Happening. He keeps conjugating the crisis in the future tense. He has no idea that it is happening already, and has been for two months. No wonder he's done nothing to stop it. He can't see it!
