It seems pretty open that Trumps going to lose this appeal. not that I really expected some judges to limit judicial power, that was very unlikely to happen u de any circumstances.

4 justices are openly hostile and we know how Robert's will swing, so I guess the new official rulers of the US is every and any single judge anywhere at any level, any judge can stop anything the PotUS does with an unappealable TRO at anytime for any reason and its perfectly legal.

Just like the Filibuster call, this will come back to haunt the Democrats.

The question becomes now what will happen? Will Trump just accept this? Or will he push Congress to actually do something for once?

Interesting times, interesting times.

The fuck you mean unappealable? The Supreme Court literally reversed a TRO like a month ago.

If you are right, it is by accident because nothing you said makes sense. Just wait and see.

Fuck UHG, but understand that the company almost certainly meets the criteria for being considered Too Big To Fail by .gov.

If they continue cratering, the taxpayer is going to be the one footing the bill. Through the parent and subsidiaries, UNH touches like 60-70% of all Rx transactions in the US. Largest Part C policy writer by a mile last I checked, once the subsidiaries are accounted for. Medicaid, clinics, Labcorp, employer plans, etc.

Witty was likely fired, they can't say that because then they look like retards for clapping like seals when he made the line go up by spending the last 6 years firing all of the internal subject matter experts, replacing them with Abundant Indians, and of late, half-baked AI projects that deployed with a defect rate approaching 90%.

If there was any political environment to end this practice of government bailouts of private industry due to waste, corruption and terrible practices, it would be now. It's optimistic, yes. but it's the best shot we've got.

Regardless letting the Jeet flood in at all is bad, it doesn't matter if they get paid more and need actual qualifications and not fakes. Just having any of them in a company can prove to be corrosive and they lust for any kind of management position and will immediately try to move mountains to fire and replace the native workers with more jeets. The attitude of affirmative action and white guilt aids them in any march upwards, I also have a pessimistic attitude regarding the flood because of Trump's support of the h1b program in term 1

As someone who owns a call center specializing in scamming old ladies, I’m frankly horrified by H-1B changes Trump allegedly has in the pipeline.

holy shit twitter rocks

By restricting and increasing the wages to a near match of actual citizens, it prevents the pajeets ONLY advantage, cheap labor. This is all it takes.

Morton's fork
1) Either reign in the Judges
2) Burn legitimacy and give Trump free reign to ignore the Courts, killing them.

not even 80 years after being a colonial subject they have a larger economy than their former colonial overlord, you can say watever you want, thats damn impressive and worth being proud of your nation, also check out that year over year GDP growth, knocking on the door of double digits.

>Larger economy

Lets assume we take out the 472 million Indian kids and 14 million UK kids.

1.407 billion minus 472 million equals 935 million.


68M-14M=54M

3.568 trillion divided by 935 million= 3816.0 per person, give or take.

3.381 trillion divided by 54 million= 62611~ per person.

I mean, less people, but still on the same level of India, who has a billion people and change against the UK.. are we sure India has that great of a economy? Or is it just cost of living?

A TRO by design, is 100% unappealable.

they're meant to be short stays ordered by the judge for safety and security reasons over the very short term. Not nation wide nor for months at a time like like they're being done now for political reasons.

This is why all the anti Trump judges are using them rather then a standard injunction which would be standard procedure but is immediately appealable

I'm not sure which order your talking about but as far as I know no TRO has been over turned. some have been ordered by SCOTUS to be "clarified" (that's the Boasberg ones) but that's it.

From Trump’s welcome in Abu Dhabi, UAE. He is accompanied by Emirati president Mohamed bin Zayan al Nahyan. The women are performing raqas Khaleeji, the Gulf hair dance.


They visited Sheikh Zayed Mosque.

-John F Kennedy

fuck it, Ill speak on the Jeets defense. Ive worked with many of them over the years and most of what you all have to say is true in a vacuum but I wanna say 2 things in there defense.

1. There is 1 and a half BILLION of them, if you deleted 500 million you still have nearly a billion of ONE billion people. Ive met lots of shitty whites and Americans to and there is only 300 million of them. All that to say odds are when you interact with ANY person by sheer odds they are going to kinda suck and cause there is SO many Indians I feel that "average" feels distorted. Met one playing chess one time ( I know ladies keep your panties on) and guy blew me away, he was younger 20s and finished his masters in engineering and was going for a double master in biology to go into bio engineering, his whole family had saved for his whole life to send him to America, he was soft spoken with decent english, kind (did smell bad, 2/3 aint bad tho) and beat the snot out of everyone there at chess, including me.

There are lots of legitimate reasons to criticize India but they are not without merit

India is a shithole and Nixon hated them like the Based God he was. Fuck India.

Thats alot of math boss

What is this arithmetic? Did Churchill do the same thing to Stalin during ww2?

"Listen chap I know we have 2 divisions to your 150 but look at this whiteboard and you will see this math equation explains we have less people than you, you understand Im sure."

Blackadder said it best "The British Army needs to go back to making the pre-requsite for war that the other side hasent invent guns yet"

You’re a literal moron. A higher court can overturn any order by a lower court, including TROs. That’s fundamental to Common Law. While TROs are generally not appealed because they are too short for the appeal process to operate, that doesn’t make them ‘unappealable’, and there are avenues to moot them.

I don’t care if what SCOTUS did wasn’t technically an overruling. The point is that the government appealed and SCOTUS voided the order.

Judges declaring Judges don't have the fundamental right to oversee the entirety of the US as some sort of unimpeachable hall monitor was never going to happen. The type of people willing to take a pay cut to become a judge are the kind that do so because they masturbate at night thinking about power.

But it needs to be formally declared that they feel they are the new American nobility so Trump can go full Jackson on them.

Nixon was the Trump of his time. Based doesn't begin to describe him. Yeah I'll jerk him off a bit. The entire media apparatus went after him.

He learns law by watching YouTube grifters so I never expect any intelligence from his posts.

And yet his legacy outlines us all. Up there on the moon is a plaque with Nixon's name on it attached to the lunar lander. No man can touch it. It's there forever. That man won in the end.

LOL no that is not fucking impressive, you yourself just appealed to their massive population.

Compare GDP per capita, the actual measure of wealth.

I’m phone posting, but if I remember I’ll come back about the growth. It’s nothing special, it’s normal for an economy to grow extremely fast when it’s still poor and slow down. China did the same thing and recently entered the slow stagnation phase. India was as fucked by socialist policies as China was Maoist policies until about the 1980s/1990s or so.
