@Chuck_Doucet@DanRShafer Chicago ranked 17th in violent crime per capita in 2025. You can’t use raw numbers because it’s the 4th largest city in the western hemisphere. It has more of literally everything. And I live in downtown Chicago I don’t know why you keep making shit up. Have you ever been here?
@JShellback0312@Ian90598181141@CharlesPPierce You guys always have quite the double standard on criticizing parts of America. Nobody is allowed to criticize junky farm towns but you can shit on cities all day long.
@AmitMDproactive@elobornola@CSandbatch Saying Chicago home prices haven’t appreciated in a decade just proves you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. Home prices here have appreciated quicker than almost any city in America. My home has appreciated nearly 30% in 5 years.
@HaythamKenway99@jasonjordan2814@HeathMayo We were not arguing about tariffs generally we were arguing about his illegal use of IEEPA. I specifcally mentioned 232 and 301 tarrifs as an exact exmple of why IEEPA would not hold up. You said he would win this case - he did not, for all the reasons I stated.
@HaythamKenway99@jasonjordan2814@HeathMayo It says exactly what I said above. John Roberts specifically invokes Major Questions exactly as I said he would 6 months ago. I criticized his use of IEEPA specifcally and you acted like that was stupid. Take the L. You were wrong on every point you made in this thread.
@HaythamKenway99@HeathMayo They said when congress delegates it's tariff power it does so explictily and with limitations. Which was my exact argument. You were quite confident they were going to rule in his favor - maybe reflect on your arrogance rather than trying to move the goal posts.
@HaythamKenway99@jasonjordan2814@HeathMayo Want to review this thread and see who the SC ultimately agreed with? They invoked 'major questions' and referred to the tariffs as a tax. Who needs to go to law school?
Same. Nothing makes me feel more patriotic, such as it is, than how many people, from so many different places, with so many different cultures and histories, all feel so proud to be part of this thing together.
People who hate this kind of thing fundamentally hate America.
