I’m pretty sure this is textbook sexual harassment.

Guy’s probably already dead.

Of course he does. That’s how it works. You show him that you’re weak, and he’ll keep taking advantage of you.

So, they’re shutting down actual research in order to rehash this bullshit for the hundredth time?

Oops. There goes the US communications tech industry, I guess.

So, is he seriously telling other countries not to just blindly go along with whatever the US tells them to do, but instead to resist and stand up for themselves?

And Trump is ok with this messaging? Hmmm.

Oh, I didn’t mean to imply that they should “always” be prosecuted for their crimes…only that the Supreme Court should have closed that loophole. There are many ways they could have drawn a distinction between justified actions and those that should be prosecuted.

Instead, they ruled that all “official acts” should be exempt from repercussions. That didn’t just leave the loophole open…it guaranteed it could be abused, without consequence.

Ooh, ooh…I did that.

Is this his latest effort to convince us he’s not like Trump?

Good lad.

I don’t think they understand how strategic voting works, then. If they have a candidate that has a reasonable chance to beat the Conservative candidate…then strategically speaking, they should be the go-to pick for anyone not voting Conservative.

They should be promoting this. It should keep all of their current incumbents in their seats, and maybe even win a few more in contested ridings.

In clear violation of the 1st amendment.

So, all those research papers were written by AI? Huh.

Premium lawsuit, incoming!

So, in other words…he’s delusional and thinks this is a TV show and he’s the main character?

Another assault on due process.

From the way it was framed in the ruling itself, it seems like they were trying to legitimize the actions of past presidents, as well as insulate Trump from prosecution.

Every president in recent history, and many more beyond that, were guilty of crimes committed in the name of the office. Whether it be human rights violations, war crimes, or simply playing fast and loose with their Constitutional authority. Every single one of the living presidents should have been charged with all kinds of shit, due to their official actions. Bush for Iraq. Obama for his drone program. Trump for his handling of Covid. All of them are responsible for the deaths of tens or even hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians both in the US and around the world.

By all legal accounts, they should all be rotting in prison for what they did as president. But they aren’t. It’s always been a matter of unnoficial precedent that once they leave office, the slate is wiped clean. That seems to be what they were clarifying with the Trump ruling. All is forgiven, as long as it was an “official act”, in the service of the country.

The problem is, rather than close that loophole in the system, they chose to legitimize it. And now we have someone who has no problem abusing that privilege, in power again.

Unfortunately, this may be exactly why they aren’t trying to get him back. The entire reason he was in the US, was because he was being threatened by a gang in El Salvador.

So, is your account just restricted in Turkey? Or everywhere, based on local Turkish law?
