Lucy Mercer Rutherford and FDR began their affair in 1916 and carried on for 29 years until the moment that fuck died. She was 54 and he was 63. Frankly, despite him being the President of the United States, she could've done better.
If she had given up early she wouldn't have the claim to fame of being possibly the only woman to fuck a sitting president of the United States to death. She was in it for the long haul. She was a mistress of fornication, commitment, and sheer fucking will.
 
If you "wait for SCOTUS" nothing will be done and every action he tries to do will be blocked.
That's not necessarily true in matters of national importance. During the 2000 Bush/Gore recount mess the Supreme court went from accepting the case to hearing oral arguments and issuing a final written ruling that decided the election in 5 days total IIRC.
 

Article. II.​

Section. 1.​

The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.

This judge has basically stripped the legal power of the executive of discretionary spending and legal oversight of parts of the executive branch. Fuck him.
>appeals >scotus

It's Lawfare and hopefully the precedents rule in our favor. Must think about the future my man
 
Time to tap the sign again.

"Wow who would fall for something this stupid just because it's named the patriot act?"
[fast forward]
"WOW DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION?"
Next you will tell me the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea is actually the democratic government of Korea and not some tin pot dictatorship. Just like Antifa only fight fascists!
 
My main takeaway from learning about these interesting events that you shared with us is that at least the Israelis used some lube while fucking us.
Robert Taft lost, there's no time machine to go back and change it. Not even Donald Trump has the opinion that we should tell all our allies to piss off because any military assistance to them is them fucking us. His opinion is that if they pay their fair share as determined by a percentage of GDP, they aren't. Israel's spending of its own money on defense as a percentage of GDP has never been below 4.5% going back to 1960
 
He specifically says "it's too early" so I don't think it was an outright refutation?
no trump was honest, and i admire that. baier asked an honest question too, imo, even though he definitely knew it had a pretty big charge to it. doesn't make it a bad question on its face. i just admired how quickly trump navigated away from something that could lead to division within the unity he's built already. it was the navigation of the conversation that caught my attention, not his thoughts about vance so much.

Roberts has a giant track record of not wanting to take any cases involving govt power so I'll believe it when I see it. Even if Trump "wins" the case a federal judge will just do it again with slightly different wording and it will never stop.

Then when Dems get back in power they will ignore SCOTUS just like Biden did and not be punished for it because SCOTUS has no actual way to exert whatever "power" they have.
 
63?! Was he smoking asbestos and drinking drain cleaner? Shatner looks 63 and he’s 90, FDR looks like he’s being punished by god makes sense come to think of it
Shatner is 93 actually, and yeah definitely looks better than alot of people in their 60s

They can keep Trump locked down indefinitely with it. Even if the Supreme Court overruled, they'd slightly change the justification and Restrain him again. Trump ignores them now, or ignores them then.
Problem is this is probably the very thing everybody involved in these orders wants trump to do, so they can turn around and demand he be impeached and removed from office for violating federal court orders
 
"Recently"? Before or after his wife, and the mother of his kids, left him?
He didn't specify. I think after. I can't insert the video for some reason, but it's in his interview with Michael Malice from five days ago. He talks about it around the 57 minute mark, if you want to look for yourself. His Wikipedia page just says, "According to Meechan, he converted to Eastern Orthodox Christianity at some point in 2024."

Their attempt to increase their defense funding off the US GDP by attacking the USS Liberty and trying to blame it on the Egyptians has always been an obstacle to the observant seeing it that way. If Denmark tried that and blamed Sweden for it we'd have had American Greenland in 1967 instead of Danish Scandia on the Swedish mainland.
