  • This will be challenged in court and almost certainly be struck down on 1st amendment grounds. Targeting a specific organization like that is a pretty flagrant violation, but I wouldn't expect the supporters of this bill to be familiar with the US Constitution.

  • Being convicted of a crime doesn't disqualify anyone; people have run for President from prison. And most of the people who attacked Congress on Jan. 6 would not be disqualified for it even if they are convicted of a crime for it.

    Disqualification is not a criminal punishment. It's not a crime to be 34 years old, for example, or to have been born in another country. But those are still disqualifications, and they are and always have been enforced by the states.

  • Impeachment is expressly not a criminal procedure. It can't result in prison or fines, nor can it can't be pardoned by the President.

  • On the contrary, Congress is expressly forbidden from deciding whether someone is guilty of a crime.

  • That is what is known as "sarcasm". I wasn't sincerely calling for violence against the Supreme Court, but rather drawing attention to their hypocrisy.

  • Consider the fact that there is more than one grounds for disqualification. For president, there are also age and naturalization disqualifications.

    Who do you think has been determining those all these years?

  • States have always had that power. Whether its age, naturalization, or oath-breaking, it's never been up to the federal government to decide disqualification.

  • Time to violently storm the Supreme Court, then. After all, they approve.

  • I didn't know it existed. I like it.

  • "A cuddly juvenile pornomorphic bear."

  • “It is very important that there is this meeting, this meeting between men and women, because today the ugliest danger is gender ideology, which cancels out differences,” the pope said during an audience with members of the French-based academic organization Research and Anthropology of Vocations Institute (CRAV).

    He's demanding that everyone conform to his narrow worldview... in the name of preserving our differences?

    That's some impressive mental gymnastics, even for a Pope.

  • It's worth pointing out that the guillotine was primarily used to terrorize the poor commoners, not nobles (who had already fled the country by that point.)

  • Too soon!

  • Wait a minute, they will have had had color photography for centuries by 2267. And giant monster attacks will have had not happened for decades, have hadn't they?

  • The Christians gave Him Sunday, the Jews gave Him Saturday, and the Muslims gave Him Friday. God has a three-day weekend.

  • I wonder if the sender will do their federal and state sentences concurrently or consecutively.

  • I like this reality better than mine.

  • She's not being attacked for the crimes of her son, though. She's being criticized as a hypocrite.
