in a country founded directly on "no kings, fuck kings in particular" it is beyond insulting that supposed "originalist" judges are taking seriously the proposition that the President is in fact a king
even though ive left the religion, it reminds me kind of of old Bible stories with the israelites asking god for a king only for every king they ever had being a huge evil prick after they got power. not exactly the same situation here but similar
Turns out the founders should have considered emphasizing “No Group of Unelected God Wizards” in addition to “No Kings”
And yet... not surprising.
I always thought it was ironic that the fuck kings country only really supports monarchies in the Arab world and activley helps supress revolution in the name of democracy.
Republicans have never been fans of democracy.
I am waiting for one of them to quote the Magna Carta in an argument saying that the President is not subject to the law. I know it is coming.
Not just "beyond insulting", I think it's absolutely disqualifying for the position of Supreme Court Justice.
fuck this system of governance in particular
Me squawking this morning while listening “But NO ONE is above the law. That is LITERALLY the basis this country was founded on. -No seizing of land -No summarily executing people -No just seizing assets (Without due process. Those issues are another story for another day, tho.)
They’re paying too much attention to fsking Hamilton. Man had no problem with kings, just needed them to be elected first.
