“(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.

    I’m also glad we can pivot away from what a joke Hassan is.

    I think you’re reinforcing my original point: with just a slim majority a big party tent won’t accomplish much. These are just facts. I’m not defending the democrats – this is just reality.

    On another note: I’m curious about this prevalent binary invocation that happens on this site. You accused me of defending these people. I’m not interested in defending anyone --just discussing the facts. Why is everyone on Lemmy.world so intent on ascribing a team/position to everyone so earnestly? What is being gained with this tactic?
