Trump needs to be arrested
Seriously, how many crimes will he commit before something stops him? Who polices the president? Ohhhhh right, it's Congress. The courts can check his orders when someone sues, but they don't charge him with crimes. I guess it could be possible for a blue state to arrest him when he commits a heinous crime within its borders, but I won't hold my breath
Or something a little more extreme...
It is the Ides of March...
Et tu Vance?
For those wondering.
50 USC § 21
Whenever there is a declared war between the United States and any foreign nation or government
Literally the first words in the law Trump attempted to use to deport these people. Congress has not declared any war, this is literally our Government falling apart at this point. Congress will do nothing to reel this President who violates the laws on a daily basis.
We are never recovering as a Nation from this. This kind of violation of the order of law in our nation will take a century to heal if not more. The United States as it was is gone, full stop.
Isn't it officially still at war with North Korea?
Silly bint probably thinks that if he just posts "I DECLARE THIS IS A WAR" on social media then it's a declared war.
Like Michael Scott declaring bankruptcy
No he for sure thinks calling something a war makes it one. He thinks shit like the War on Drugs, are actual wars.
He did literally argue that documents are declassified if he thinks they are.
Things is... Documents are only classified due to a presidential order. He can (while president) declassify whatever he wants, whether it's wise to or not. The issue was that he was no longer president and made no indication that those documents were declassified.
You're correct, there is an actual procedure that you're supposed to follow... but iirc, Trump actually stated that the documents just were declassified because he had that thought in his head, while still president, so therefore that counts and its all fine, he can keep them.
The war on Tesla hate.
A formal declaration of war requires congressional approval, as outlined in Article One, Section Eight of the Constitution.
They've ignored that since WW2. They've ignored the "a well regulated Militia" part of the 2nd amendment also.
That document? Didn't you hear it's null and void now?
