Yoon Suk Yeol removed as South Korea's president over short-lived martial law
South Korea’s Constitutional Court has unanimously removed Yoon Suk Yeol as president after he threw the nation into turmoil by declaring martial law and sending troops to parliament in an ill-fated effort to break through legislative gridlock.
It took them some time, huh?
4 months is honestly pretty quick for legal proceedings. Meanwhile, we had 4 fucking years to prosecute Tariffman, with goddamn jack to show for it.
Well, legal proceedings take time. Not like they could (or should) just execute him on the spot or anything like that, it's at least supposed to be a democracy with proper checks and balances to make sure everything's in harmony with the law.
Not really. He hasn't been acting President for months, so there was no urgency for the court to force it through.
