It may not matter at all. Imagine it’s deemed unofficial and he wins the election, he will almost definitely pardon himself. Pardon powers were never given reasonable limits.

People have undervalued that the real check on a president’s powers is in the hands of the voters. The next strongest checks seem to be the lifespan of the executive and the two term limit.

And yet I’ve had to throw out a whole bottle of St. Ives lotion. Which country is threatened by me having silky smooth skin?

I should’ve specified I was citing Netflix’s current US pricing https://help.netflix.com/en/node/24926 and YouTube’s current US pricing https://www.youtube.com/premium.

Oh thanks I was looking at old information.

EDIT: I realized now you’re just giving supplemental old info.

What does this have to do with Muslims? The article doesn’t even mention Islam. Did you respond to the wrong article?

there were enough checks on his power that he mostly managed to simply be incompetent and chaotic

There were no real checks. He had way too many Republicans in Congress for there to be. Most of what protects America is gentleman’s agreements that we all assume a normal president wouldn’t defy.

If the leader of the FBI attempts to investigate him again, they could just hire a new one who won’t.

That is literally what happened last time. The house (where Republicans are a majority) wouldn’t pass a bill that makes firing the FBI director illegal so there’s no real difference.

That just makes me wonder so much more. How do we know they were Syrian and how do we know where they live without finding them?

Police couldn’t find them, because they lived 2 apartment buildings down.

I don’t understand this part. Shouldn’t that be the very reason why police should be able to find them?

YouTube ad tier: $0
Netflix ad tier: $6.99
YouTube premium: $13.99
Netflix standard: $15.49

Huge caveats incoming.

They don’t charge more than Netflix, but most of their content is definitely provided to them for free. On top of that, most of YouTube’s original content is behind their premium subscription paywall. I tried to see how many of their originals shows are actually viewable with their ad tier and it’s hard to pin down a number. My speculation is it doesn’t matter because either so few people are willing to pay for premium or their originals aren’t very marketable. Off the top of my head I’d heard of exactly one YouTube original.

Hiltz got the US Olympic trials record, not the American record. No one has run faster in the women’s 1500 meter at any US Olympic trials.

You’re right about the rest. A few non Americans have run faster and only one American has run faster, Shelby Houlihan. Houlihan is currently banned from the sport for a steroid she alleged was consumed while eating contaminated burritos. She won’t be allowed to compete again until January 2025.

I’m not gonna disagree, but I will say people have basically judged the court for decades based on their decisions. I’ve been judging it on their decisions and their dissents. There have been non-unanimous cases for years where there have been bizarre dissents that could have changed the country if any specific president had appointed more judges.

Primaries are also weird because depending on what state you live in the election is often decided before you even get to vote. Imagine living in a state as big as California and having no impact on the primary.

If the general election can be one day maybe so can the primary.

Moats. I was kidding at first, but I’m now thinking lazy rivers are modern moats.

Hot take: that crime bill attack was always an interesting one to me.

In Hillary’s election she got heavily criticized for supporting it while non-conservatives supported it, Biden wrote it, Bill Clinton signed it, Bernie Sanders voted for it. I was somewhat surprised this election when people actually remembered that Biden wrote it at all. I didn’t hear much about it in 2020.

That’s not an interpretation the supreme court would agree with.

That sounds like an adult with a social and/or psychological issue.

I think Reddit killed forums more than Facebook did.

I’m asking if you believe no other president would support Israel more than Biden. US president? I don’t believe that. Israel doesn’t believe that. You might. There’s a lot of potential presidents in America.

Your own quote: “[Netanyahu] can’t get that loyalty from any other US president”

Do you actually believe that statement to be true?
