An insurmountable problem in a job where verbal communication is paramount.

Errrr…White House, Senate, House, SCOTUS all pledging fealty to the self-professed “King”
We don’t seem to be able to pass them quickly enough here, so Trump is simply making them Executive Orders and forcing the Dems to file lawsuits against his EO, Boeing to appeal any negative rulings.
Meanwhile….!
Nationalism has been on the rise on both sides of the Atlantic for some time now, but with the rise of disingenuous (and outright false) social media outlets, gullible mouth breathers have embraced the “enemy”…or at least whom they’ve been told is their enemy and the reason for their perceived lot in life.
Spoiled Alert: Immigrants and people who look different than they do!
Amen.

Yes, but we must have different opinions of what that is... That's why i asked
A complaint of contempt has been filed. It alleges that USAID funds have not been released in defiance of a court order but they told the court the funds were in the process of being released. Hmmm…
Are you beginning to see the problem here?

I toyed with sociopath, but I'm leaning more towards the orange Fuhrer being an actual psychopath.
Stop the steal. Hang Mike Pence.
The certification of the election results is a protected government procedure. It is a crime to impede it.
We have to wait and see…the complaint is premature.
You didn't answer my question. Is it a crime to protest?

I think it rhymes with Clucking Bell (to quote E Blackadder)
I was amused by the purchase of a LOT of liquid egg from Turkey (I think, the country, not the bird).
I demonstrated previously to you that it clearly was NOT a protest. I’m not going through all that again…..but..
“Go down to the capitol and stop the steal” is an instruction to commit a crime by impeding the certification.
Dog with a bone.

It’s a choice and an opinion.
Personally, I think he’s neither. I think he is a silver spoon, malignant narcissist, who used his perceived financial acumen to fleece people in his business life and used a “Reality Show” to vault himself into politics.
He’s clearly far too “worldly incurious” to be President, but given the power vested in the position by the Founding Fathers, he really does think Article II gives him carte blanche to (effectively) be a King if no-one firmly enforces the guardrails intended to stop that.

True. But so far here's what we know from thr previous ruling:
The ABA argued that "every administration has the right to review ongoing programs and set priorities, but those actions must be carried out in compliance with relevant constitutional and statutory requirements,”
Judge agreed and "ruled in his temporary order that USAID and the State Department, which also funds foreign aid, may not enforce Trump's order through blanket suspensions or cancellations of contracts or grants, though he said they could enforce the terms of particular agreements."
The administration said in Tuesday's filing " that it was complying with the order, but was reviewing its contracts and grants and had so far determined that all of them allowed it to cancel or suspend them."
Now, the organizations have filed, requesting that the court hold the administration in contempt for defying his order...
How do you think he'll rule?

Don't suppose you are thinking of taking 24hrs off this thread are you?
