Unfortunately, no, Chauvin was convicted under Minnesota state law. Trump's pardon powers on extend to federal law. It would take Tim Walz to pardon Derek, and you'd have a better chance of selling snow to an eskimo

Ah yes, tampon tim, chosen by kamala "hyena" harris as her vice because of his lower IQ after herself was chosen as vice to "sleepy* joe biden due to her lower IQ, who served as vice to barak "drone striker" obama due to the lower IQ

Quick poll: will Barron become president in the future?
or ?
People are saying so because of his intelligence and "he has that look," yet he has, IIRC, a generally shy nature.

He will be America's Emperor Octavian.

here's a telling article:

In Seattle 2017, over 100k people marched in protest of Trump's election

Seattle 2025 this past Saturday, it was around 2k

hahaha
hahahahahahahaha

The Jan 6th people should really start suing over the fact that their constitutional right to a speedy trial was breached.

...I just fucking realized why Biden handed out these pardons. It was not to protect innocent people from Trump's judicial tyranny.

Fox just showed Trump talking about the infamous "fence" aka his border wall. Apparently he wanted concrete, but his staff told him they needed the fence-like design to prevent people from climbing on top of it(which didn't work since the migrants either dug underneath it or literally just climbed over it with the use of a ladder).
Do we have any architects in here? Something about this just sounds wrong. Great Wall of China worked well enough and it still stands today.

I know I'm 100 pages behind but I had to point this out.

The Great Wall of China was never designed to keep the northern tribes out entirely. It was intended to slow them down long enough for the Chinese to mobilize an army to meet them. That's why, for most of its history, the wall wasn't one long structure; it was multiple walls arranged in a way to create a maze to slow the nomads down.

He will be America's Emperor Octavian.

Who will be his Agrippa?

 

[Necrosan]

I imagine the inauguration speech in that alternate timeline would be about "reuniting America" under "social justice" and "Our Democracy" as well.

Would've been incredibly depressing to hear:

>muh Ukraine will prevail against le ebil nazis (sends 3B)
>reparashiouns/white people shaming
>endless nigger parades and sperging over a "black" woman being elected for the first time on MLK day
>more J6 sperging
>muh women's rights were saved (which only pertains to abortion)
>muh environment and carbon footprint sperging

I was confident things would be ok but at the same time, that precipice looked really fucking dire.

the only thing fag drudge is headlining is the trump coin shit. god what a useless sore loser drudge is

If you do not think that doing TWO fucking meme coins is the most trashy, scummy, tone deaf shit possible, I don't know what to tell you. Trump could've cemented a legacy (and maybe still is, those EOs are amazing), but can't stop enriching himself.

But I believe in the age of the internet, it's hard to come up with perfect leaders. I'll just enjoy what we have now, maybe it's necessary to beat the deranged leftists PMC back in line. Roll back the bullshit that started with Obama.

I sincerely hope that, come Vance's presidency, the US will have two parties who agree on wanting the best for the US again.

 

[gamerweeb1]

WTF how could Trump do this?

Why is he letting leftist Antifa and FBI plants out of prison?

 

[Drag-on Knight 91873]

California is the staging point.

Meaning America is already behind in the war.

Here's hoping Trump orders a drone strike on Newsom.

I really don't see the argument that US has no jurisdiction over people in the country illegally working out very well

Depends on how we define jurisdiction.

A united states citizen who is living abroad still falls under American jurisdiction. They can be charged by the united states government for crimes committed overseas. I'm not saying this hypothetically either. We have in fact charged people for crimes commited overseas we also still expect American citizens living abroad to pay taxes to the American government on money they earned abroad. They are clearly under our jurisdiction in every sense of the word.

When an illegal immigrant leaves the country as far as our government is concerned they cease to exist. You could easily argue that foreign nationals fall outside of our jurisdiction except in certain special limited cases which do not confer 14th amendment protections. Furthermore if being on American soil automatically met the requirements of being under American jurisdiction why would you even have it as a requirement?

If you think this argument is crap well roe versus wade held for 50 years, and that was predicated on the idea that people get abortions privately, you have a right to privacy, and therefore you have a right to an abortion.

 

[PhoBingas]

Why would President Vance do that? Besides four years is a pretty long time.

Why would JD do that?

Yeah. Vote wisely.

Hopefully they don't have to deal with the Democrats pulling another 10 million votes out of their ass in four years, or the Republicans deciding to go with another TV president. Tucker Carlson president could be interesting.

They're the fastest thing he can do. I'll take them, so long as good legislation comes out of congress, and good rulings out of the courts.

Maybe I'm just old and cynical, but I don't expect congress to do much more than scream and jerk off at each other for the next four years. Maybe, who knows?

I'm reeling from "Gulf of America". It feels like my entire life is a lie. I've been stung by jellyfish in the Gulf of America

The best jellyfish. YUGE jellyfish with the BEST stings

Does the knowledge you were stung by an American jellyfish make you feel more or less patriotic?

 

[Pierre D'Olnique]

The NaCl avalanche is fucking amazing, tons of botted leftoid accounts going "WHY IS THE PRESIDENT...........DOING...........PRESIDENT THINGS?????????".
Keep it coming.
I need more minerals.

 

[ToroidalBoat]

a "black" woman being elected for the first time on MLK day

Oh yeah, that would be really emphasized. And those who voted Trump could have been demonized as "racist" and "misogynist" even more.

Also, this thread would have some unflattering pic of Harris, instead of that iconic photo that Wikipedia still does not want posted.

 

[Haramburger]

YUGE jellyfish with the BEST stings

this hits me hard at "should have went to bed 2 hours ago" AM, very nice

Does the knowledge you were stung by an American jellyfish make you feel more or less patriotic?

If it were me I'd say more, because jellyfish have no true "brain," just an alien collection of nerves and connections that barely function, like a liberal. So getting stung would be like a normal disagreement with a democrat, and that would mean I was engaging in politics like a good patriot.

 

[draggs]

They will try, make no mistake. The next Democrat to fraud their way into the presidency is going to one up this with pure lunacy.

1. Too many.
2. Literally hundreds of thousands. Just the Surenos gang (cartel affiliates) alone has 50,000 members in LA County. Are you really stupid enough to think the same cartel-funded drug traffickers who know all the back routes in the country don't know how to take a detour to cause havoc, or just decide to wipe out a traveling white family in the middle of nowhere late at night?
3. They would once any brown-skinned person is thought to be a potential cartel terrorist. Beside, Jorge might moonlight as a drug trafficking shooting cops, but by day he's a respected community member

This is why invading Mexico or starting a war with cartels is so painfully stupid on the level of Bush's forever wars. Especially since you won't even wipe out drug trafficking since the cartels will just move those operations elsewhere. Better invade them too!

1. Very convincing

2. That's the estimate for total membership of "Surenos gang" members in the US, Mexico, and Central America combined, not LA County. You fucking tard. How many of them are willing to stop getting paid to sling drugs, and start getting paid to fight a fucking war? The estimate last year for people working directly for the cartels in Mexico was 175,000. You're saying there's more than that in America? Okay sure. All these cartel-affiliated gangs, their affiliation is they buy drugs and sometimes buy protection from the cartels. How many of them are willing to stop playing cat and mouse with 5-0, and take on the government in a war? What does your retarded ass think the general public reaction in America would be to "drug traffickers" wiping out families and other carloads of people like they do in Mexico? Do you ever think at all?

3. Why would every hispanic be thought of that way? How many hispanics voted for Trump again? How many of them would be willing to directly or indirectly aid some retarded guerilla war waged by cartels inside the US? How many of those that didn't vote for Trump would be willing to do that? How many of them are "respected community members"? If you ever touched grass you'd know that gangbangers aren't respected community members, they're feared. Nigger gangbangers in Chicago, and everywhere else, are fucking hated by the rest of the niggers living there, but they're feared. Send in a real force to take care of them, that force would have almost the entire community on its side. Same thing with spics. Sorry this isn't 1955 and this isn't Goodfellas, these people are not paterfamilias of their neighborhoods

It's amazing how fucking tards like you think everything is so easy it's hardly an inconvenience for the other side but everything is so difficult it's almost impossible for our side. Every fucking time, every way imaginable. Brilliant fucking tard brainwork you got going on there
