Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I'm far from knowledgeable on constitutional law, but skimming the linked ruling, it's very vague and seems to basically say that the supreme Court gets to decide if something is constitutional or not. So a united executive branch and judicial branch can do whatever they want with impunity.
They say the president has absolute immunity from criminal persecution "for actions within his conclusive and preclu- sive constitutional authority." And he also has presumptive immunity for "all his official acts." And ofc I'm sure it's up to the supreme to decide what qualifies an an official act, whether the presumptive immunity should be upheld, and whether an action is within the presidents "conclusive and precious I've constitutional authority".
Okay so just kill all the Republican court justices first, appoint new ones and have them rule the act an official one, then drone strike Mar-a-Lago. Simple.
Let's be real. He'll refuse to do anything meaningful with his power, hand over the dictatorship to Trump after losing, and then blame leftists and the youth while Trump removes everybody left of Romney from power.
