No need to. Biden can have the 6 corrupt justices killed. He has the immunity and he can pick new justices. If members of the senate refuse to put the new justices on the bench, have them killed too. No rules anymore.

Strategically speaking liberal politicians are backed into a corner and only have two real options:

  1. Seize control preemptively, promoting conservative conspiracy to prophecy, and likely inciting CW2.

  2. Hand over full control come January and hope they continue to maintain some privilege under a new regime.

They're already in check, but more concerned with soliciting large donations and collecting hot stick tips.

We want them to do option 1, but know they are going to choose option 2.

When confronted with fascist Threats liberals always blink. They'll wade through masses of bodies to destroy what they perceive to be a leftist threat, but they don't stand up to fascists.

All democracies turn into dictatorships - but not by coup. The people give their democracy to a dictator, whether it's Julius Caesar or Napoleon or Adolf Hitler. Ultimately, the general population goes along with the idea.

Go. Start some research, and head out. Many countries you can just enter. Call it a vacation for the first year and see if you like it.

The quickest way to save the country would be for Biden to kill the 6 justices that ruled in favour of immunity (and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't even mind since they're the ones that made it legal), install 6 liberal judges and the new court can overturn every ruling the corrupt court made. Which means Biden would probably end up in prison, but hey, it's a small price to pay for democracy.

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 37 points 4 months ago

Why would he end up in prison? It would not have been a crime when he committed it. That’s what immunity means.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 15 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Yep. They made an official ruling, Biden acts on it appropriately, new Justices get appointed in a month (or else), new Court orders a review of every case the six fascists ruled on.

Oh, what do you know, first out the door, no, extrajudicial murder powers aren't supported by the Constitution!

Whoopsie.

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
