Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

If this is validated by the SC then hopefully Joe makes immediate use of it.
"Only for Republican Presidents"
Yes, kill Trump's lawyer. He said he's cool with it
No…that still ruins the country
The best thing to do would be an amendment that removes immunity
He could use it to fix the court and then have the court abolish the ruling.
If Trump wins the election, he's going to do what he wants regardless of the Court's ruling. Let's stop pretending that "Even when it accomplishes nothing, following the rules to the bitter end is the noble thing to do." Why the fuck does the Captain need to go down with his ship?
And then the next Republican President does the same thing
If your goal is no Republican President ever again then you don’t need to worry about the ruling anyway
So first kill Trump, then kill some of the SC judges, so that they won't oppose you when you move to make the president bound to uphold the law.
Why would you think it would end after that?
