No no no no, you don’t get it.
BIDEN is not a king. Because the conservative owned SCOTUS will rule that whatever crimes he commits in office are not done as official business.
TRUMP is the future first monarch. Only his crimes will be deemed official business.
This ruling is just setting him up for a SCOTUS pardon, which they just granted themselves the power to do, so he can assume his throne.
SCOTUS gave themselves the power to absolve the POTUS of crimes. And POTUS already has the power to absolve anyone else of federal crimes.
Yep. Totally what the founders wanted.
George Washington would put trump in the fucking ground faster than you could say king of America
Washington’s ghost: “Let’s see how America is getting along.”
“…”
“Welp, I tried to warn them political parties were a bad idea.”
More Americans need to read “The Federalist Papers”. This shit was telegraphed centuries ago. Dead ass people wanting a Presidential Republic.
Fucking infuriating that the SCOTUS can openly and blatantly make shit up that serves the purposes of the GOP and that there is no recourse. US voters now have to also consider that whoever they put in office as president has the power to do whatever they want with impunity.
I heard that mfer had like, 30 gdamn dicks
And only five of them were his!
I’ve been assured he was 12 stories high and made of radiation
Nukes are mined from Washington’s grave, and the only reason Russia and other nations also have them is because he once wandered a bit too far into Siberia and froze his toes off on a trip that was just meant to explore the northwestern reaches of the new continent. He leaped to the Diomede islands and his toes dipped into the water, he walked into Russia with wet shoes.
He’ll save the children but not the Palestinian children?
I had the Mental Image of George calmly setting aside his false teeth before suplexing Trump so hard that you could measure it on the Richter scale.
Washington was surrounded by Trump-like figures during his Presidency and profited handsomely from their patronage. His administration only put you in the ground if you were a Pennsylvania wheat farmer trying to dodge a huge new tax on your most efficient method of commodity preservation.
Indeed he would.
what if he keeps executing SCOTUSes until they agree to absolve him?
Yep, I drew out a plausible plan in another thread on how that could work.
Arrest them on corruption, Espionage, domestic terrorism, etc charges. Either move them to an offshore blacksite, or “accidentally” kill them during the arrest.
That would certainly fall under “official acts”, and if it’s overstepping authority, well, who cares because even if they’re deemed crimes, they were done in the context of official duties to keep this country safe.
And then when the corrupt SCOTUS members are purged, fill the seats with those that will uphold that Bidens orders were official acts. And Biden can pardon those executing his orders.
This is exactly what the SCOTUS just enabled. It’s absolutely abhorrent. And Biden would never do it because it’s obviously anti democratic and would establish a dictatorship.
But Trump WILL do it. And the current SCOTUS will allow it.
Then we’ll have to explain it to them in ways they would have understood.
If Biden were a just president, he would destroy the justices until they imprisoned him and fixed the law
Only his crimes
What crimes? All I see is official business. Especially that guy he had killed because he was on 5th Ave. – supreme court
That’s checks and balance baby
Well if he used his power to destroy the republicans on the supreme court, then the Democrat justices threw him in jail, the republic would be saved.
It’s literally the minimum viable cost to reset democracy and order
Didn’t the Supreme Court just invite him to do this?

Just yesterday the Supreme Court ruled that presidents are basically immune for ‘official acts’, which people are saying gives the president the power of a king.
“People” being the dissenting SC Justices.
I mean he does now have the powers of an absolute monarch.
As far as I know Saudi Arabia is the only other country with an absolute monarch, so it makes some sense we are allies now.
Not exactly. He’s only allowed to do illegal things if the SCOTUS is okay with it. He’s a Democrat, so they wouldn’t be.
Not until he wipes the supreme court and then installs his puppet court. Once that happens the senate won’t even impeech, if they know what’s good for them.
It’s all jokes, but this is the GOPs plan more or less.
They might not violently overthrow the court but only because they have silently already done it.
Next project 2025 will dismantle our elections. When 2028 rolls around, well what do you know, 99% of Americans WANT Don Jr to be kin-- president.
It’s over. The only thing left is for the DNC and the voting public to hand him the crown. And they do so willingly, because Biden, ~checks notes~, is old?
It’s not over yet, but it is very dangerously close.
When I hear the pundants, even the ones I thought I liked, try to pacify what is happening, I know we are done. Even if they do it for their own sanity, there should be no pacification for injustice at this level.
“Well, that’s just Trump and he has all the GOP by his side so what can you do?” You should do what ever it takes, what ever power you hold, what ever platform you have it should be used to oppose these tyrants. In that light, it’s already over. No one will actually stand up from here until December and it will all be too late.
When I hear the pundits, even the ones I thought I liked, try to pacify what is happening, I know we are done.
You may very well be right, and that’s extremely frustrating for me, too. Manufactured consent being laid bare.
Biden will respect the power of the office. Peacefully transition to the Trump Administration. And peacefully walk to the gallows they have erected for him.
I never thought that I would see it but even Glenn Kirschner is advocating for something extra-legal…
Because the DNC ran a sham primary forcing us into this position.
The DNC is not a government entity. It’s a private organization that represents the interests of party members and has no legal obligation to serve the public. We can be irritated with the DNC, but we can’t blame them for this.
The scorpion stings the frog because it’s in it’s nature. You still blame the scorpion.
A person belonging to one or more Order is just as likely to carry a flag of the counter-establishment as the flag of the establishment-- just as long as it is a flag.
You’re forgetting the pope.
could a king dissolve a supreme court?
as long as it’s “official”
Fine in a vat of official acid
Probably… in a vat of acid…
As a joke, that statement is legal.
I am incapable of legally agreeing with this statement.
I can legally express my opinion that based on the Supreme Court’s ruling it would be legal for Biden to - as an official presidential act - dissolve SCOTUS in a vat of acid.
The majority is already ON acid, so IN acid sounds reasonable. Officially, that is.
I say he just tells the tRump appointed judges to either resign, or die. Then I’d send a seal team to pick up mr. rapist with 34 felonies and have a nice heart to heart, in an undisclosed location.
If the Dems werent so perpetually useless, they would immediately jump on this to get shit done, then when republicans cry and whine, push them to actually pass legislation that explicitly denies this. So they are stuck between letting Biden do whatever he wants to and stopping him, but also dooming Trump and/or whatever republican candidate down the line they want to be able to exploit these powers.
But they wont. Joe and his handlers will keep doing nothing and expecting everything to just magically work itself out. And then in January we will have a fully unrestricted God-king Trump.
(Also it would be so fucking funny if Trump just died of natural causes before the election/ inauguration, the MAGATS would actually implode from conspiracy theories)
The Democrats are not incapable. They are malicious and complicit.
It’s time to stop pretending Democrats are just stupid well intentioned people
pull up, pull up, kaas
But they wont. Joe and his handlers will keep doing nothing
Oh, you think Joe hasn’t done anything?
insert 2-pt font graphic of the 80,000 administrative court decisions passed under Biden that the SCOTUS just shredded via Chevron Deference case
(Also it would be so fucking funny if Trump just died of natural causes before the election/ inauguration, the MAGATS would actually implode from conspiracy theories)
If the polls bare out, Biden is going to lose states where Senate and House Dems win with wide margins. That, alone, is going to send the QAnon folks into a frothing lather and trigger a cascade of Trump Admin Constitutional Crises, as people argue that the election was rigged to favor the Deep State.
Republicans know they’ve got the police and significant chunks of the military on their side. So they’re just going to do whatever the fuck they want at the state and local levels. Trump can do whatever he damned pleases at the Federal level, knowing the Dem Congress will just whine and pound sand. And the MAGAts are going to scream about how anything the GOP can’t get done fast enough is being sabotaged by secret evil leftist sabatores, invoking wave after wave of new University pogroms and bureaucratic purges and police raids of liberal social clubs.
Jump on what? The president wasn’t granted immunity.
The SCOTUS passed the buck to lower courts, and those courts could draw the line at whether or not Biden’s actions qualify as official or not.
Or it could end up back at the SCOTUS, where we would have to trust (lol) that they reach the same opinion they did for Biden as they did for Trump.
Yes they did, absolute immunity for powers given in the constitution and presumptive immunity for all official acts.
They sent Trumps issue back to the lower courts to make a ruiling based on their clarifications.
clarifications.
hah, good one
Clarencefications
Actually he’s the second emperor.
I wanna see FLIR drone footage of Donny’s body exploding in mar a lago
I heard he’s not even at the white house anymore. He’s just going door to door with secret service and raping people’s moms now.
*officially
King Biden can now use his powers to silence Trump, one way or another.
What did I miss? Why are there posts about Biden being a king?
Supreme court ruled that presidents are immune from obeying the law.
Basically, they went against a millennium of legal precedent and overturned the magna carta.
I saw that ruling. But there are multiple posts mentioning Biden as king as if there was something broadcasted or viral about it. Is there more?
I had to look into how magna carta is relevant and only see a vague connection about going back to pre-American laws.
In her dissent, Justice Sotomayor likened the ruling to making the president a King above the law. That’s where this is coming from.
Thank you!
Our legal system is a continuation of the English common law system of the American colonies.
The magna carta falls within English legal history and is widely viewed as the first step in regulating the behavior of the king.
This supreme court ruling seems to allow the President to break the law.
It’s my own comparison, but I think it’s quite good.
I could also say that they’ve made the presidency into a dictatorship (in the Roman usage of the word). That’s actually unfair to dictators since their unlimited power was narrow in scope, and they could be prosecuted when they left office. Ceasar was the last Roman dictator.
From Magna Carta to MAGA Carta
As an Irish American, I’m not sure King Biden would welcome the title…
It would be King Joe, kings use given names, not family names.
Erhm

Wow, the SCOTUS has really overstepped its bounds. I wonder what the legislative and executive branch’s responses are going to be?
The Supreme Court has handed Biden a loaded gun and dared him to shoot. He won’t, of course, but I think he should.
America is autocratising. That we have no say over. But I would rather have Biden as dictator than Trump. The best case scenario here is that Trump loses and Biden dies or retires after winning, and then maybe a Harris presidency can restore some semblance of normalcy to this godforsaken place.
But I would rather have Biden as dictator than Trump.
Funny thing about autocrats. They don’t normally let you pick.
There’s a very good change the SCOTUS installs Trump the same way they installed Bush. And Biden will just roll over for it
You’re only a king if you use the power and biden’s a bitch. Throw the corrupt justices of the supreme Court in jail along with Trump and Make some changes to the Constitution to limit corporations from unlimited funding candidates. It really should be the ending of infinity war, but we’re going to get the return of the Nazi party instead.
