One World Government Gun Grabber and Millionaire Republican

And this 👇👇👇 somehow, just wasn’t shocking enough to vote for a strong woman as President instead of a convicted Felon.
We are living in the worst of times.

Exactly. The law is all about language. Words. When Bill Clinton asked at his deposition, “it all depends on what the definition of the word is is.” When NBC’s Kristen Welker asked Trump if he would “FOLLOW” the Constitution, she didn’t use the legal term “defend.” So he rightly said “don’t know.

Not favorable treatment. It’s to maintain the status quo. Trump and his ilk can do serious damage. It’s to prevent extortionate behaviors. It’s a prophylactic so to speak.

Whether Apple bribed Trump is a factual question for a Judge or Jury. Apple or Cook would argue that the tchotchke was of nominal value given Trump’s supposed wealth and power. Yes, this may look horribly unethical, but Apple is meeting Trump at the level he is operating. In the tarnished mud. Filth

Where is the line? You raise larger issues. What if a beat cop gets a morning coffee from a cafe? A plain coffee. Not a $20 not a double mocha expresso drizzled coca frappachino custom deluxe. Is that a bribe? Apple would argue the same thing.

I am not sure if I agree. The language “criminal exposure” is not a term of art nor a doctrine in Corporate Law as far as I know. I don’t recall it from law school or during practice and it’s not listed in Black’s Law Dictionary 7th Ed. Apple is a business and given the difficult context is shrewd.

Don’t think it’s a crime. I have to defend both Trump and Apple here. (Cough cough). Presidents regularly receive gifts. Disclosure is the issue. Here it’s a business. For the plane it’s a FOREIGN GOVERNMENT. That’s distinguishable and very problematic. Clarence Thomas failed to disclose his gifts.

They have a legal obligation to maximize profits. What if they came “empty handed” and Trump said “screw them, buy my Trump phone” and Apple’s share price tanked and they started to loose sales? The Northstar is profits not necessarily ethics. That’s how the law is structured. It’s law school 101.

They are on LinkedIn and I get push notifications about attorney job openings. I have no desire to apply and I need work. They are firing very very good attorneys. I don’t want to be a scab.

Nah. Apple is business that owes a legal duty to its shareholders only to maximize profits. Big whoop. He gave Trump a tchotchke. That is completely different than the law firms like Skadden and Paul Weiss kissing Trump’s ring. That act threatens democracy and the rule of law. Critical distinction.

What will save us is that Americans are infused with the ideals of democracy. Fragmentation will also save us. Democracy exists even at the hyper local dog catcher position. See Tocqueville’s Democracy in America. Even privately when someone uses Roberts Rules of Order, that’s democracy in action.

Thank you for that. Indeed I am. Like the Flintstones, I am having a “gay old time” here on BlueSky.

I haven’t seen anything lately about Justice Thurgood Marshall. His advocacy in Brown saved democracy. He was one of our finest Justices to serve on the Supreme Court. He needs to be remembered. He is what makes our nation great.

The people MAGA vilifies will save democracy. The Jews did it against McCarthyism in the ‘50s, the Blacks and Thurgood Marshall with Brown during the 50’s and beyond. Thank god. This Native American story is CRT. The political and legal history of our Nation is filled with actions like this.

She is completely innocent. I had the exact Blackberry.net account she had. The server was NOT on a third party account like Google. The actual phone or device was the server. Like her, I didn’t know that. Once emails were erased, they were gone forever. That’s why Blackberry was known for security

Ohio receives more in federal funding than it pays in taxes to the treasury. Ohio is a drain on the US taxpayer. I pay for Ohio.

Lying liar!

The argument is that any direct payout or subsidy to an individual creates a dependency and de incentivizes work and furthering education. However the other three “subsidies,” bailouts and insurance for crops benefits everyone and keeps the economy going. It’s like a ladder or a highway. A tool.

Apple has a duty to its shareholders to maximize profits. They sell stuff. Big whoop. He gave Trump a tchotchke. It’s not like Paul Weiss or Skadden law firms bending the knee to Trump and threatening the rule of law and democracy. Or these universities kowtowing to him and threatening acad. freedom

Kelly: "I had another situation here with a kid who was on his little league trip in a baseball tournament. Border Patrol pulls over the vehicle, identifies the brown kid, he winds up in lockup for a week...this isn't what the American people wanted and I don't think it's consistent with our values"

I missed the part where blowing hundreds of millions in taxpayer money on gaudy, unnecessary White House upgrades counts as “cutting waste, fraud, and abuse.” Or did we just drop that whole narrative?

Trump just yanked the official portraits of Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and George H.W. Bush from their place of honor and stuck them in a hidden stairwell where the public can’t see them.

Tradition says those portraits greet guests, foreign leaders, and diplomats; Trump replaced his own imagery.

On the other hand, God smites unclean women who bed Hebrew men. The men aren’t punished. God makes them Kings. That’s the part these guys are picking and choosing to support their views. God killed a lot of people and livestock just because people wanted to get laid. That’s what it comes down to.

It does in mine. At least for Judges. Unless you’re are working in the system, nobody knows anything about Judges on the ballot. So, it’s partially true.
