“(With) today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed. For all practical purposes, there are virtually no limits on what the president can do. It’s a fundamentally new principle and it’s a dangerous precedent because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law even including the supreme court of the United States.”

Throughout his address, Biden underscored the gravity of the moment, emphasizing that the only barrier to the president’s authority now lies in the personal restraint of the officeholder. He warned vehemently against the prospect of Trump returning to power, painting a stark picture of the dangers such an outcome could pose.

    The Left isn’t going to any extremes. They do almost nothing and it is what is allowing the right to swing to their extremes. This “both sides” take is disingenuous at best. A better analogy is the american people are strapped to a guillotine, the right is ready to release the blade and the left is still trying to debate and dicuss the merits of not dropping it.

      Really? Anti-Fa? BLM? C’mon man. Either way, from my point of view, both sides of the isle are making our lives more and more miserable over time.

          You forgot about the part where there was violence and property destruction by BLM protestors.

            Ah yes, some Targets getting broken into is equally as damaging and extreme as racist christofascists attempting to overthrow the government and subvert democracy multiple times. How could I be so silly as to forget.

            Are they BLM protestors doing that? Or does chaos just bring out all the looters?

            I remember in Philly the same thing happened after a football game. Chaos happened, then looting.

              Dood… all I know is, there’s a difference between a rally/protest and whatever the fk BLM and Anti-Fa does to get their point across. And 10 times out of 10, BLM/Anti-Fa damaged their image thoroughly. And as for their supporters, the craziest thing to witness is someone saying, “well the property they damaged is all covered by insurance”… wat. But hey, if violence is the option chosen, don’t get upset with the consequences.

        Was really unaware that Antifa and BLM were official wings of the Democratic Party.
