@AdamKinzinger That’s profoundly dishonest.

@GlitterFox13 @PiersUncensored @piersmorgan @michaeljknowles @jamesbarrcomedy It’s not a g spot, and it’s not in the bum.

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@GlitterFox13 @PiersUncensored @piersmorgan @michaeljknowles @jamesbarrcomedy No, all men know about it.

@Kandi8907 @JenelleComedy @kyledcheney Andrew Jackson pointed it out. Joe Biden did it once or twice.

@Greeney17595412 @Breid508 @Heccles94 @StateDept How bout the Kinks’ Living on a Thin Line:

All those wars that were won and lost don’t seem to matter very much any more. There’s no England now.

Written 45 years ago already, by John, not Ray. .

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@Breid508 @Greeney17595412 @Heccles94 @StateDept But I have something more to say.

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@Breid508 @Heccles94 @StateDept And the UK is one day closer to death.

@Kandi8907 @JenelleComedy @kyledcheney It’s not a power. The court can’t “strike down” anything. If you metaphorically strike down an abstraction, what does that even mean? No, the court states opinions and issues orders that the executive may or may not choose to follow or enforce.

Sauer didn’t say that, and immunity is clear as a matter of law. If the Constitution is the supreme law, no putative law can prohibit or punish the President from doing what the Constitution requires of him.

[Steve Buckingham @bu95718349]

@kyledcheney that's like sauer telling the supreme court at argument in the immunity case the president could send seal team 6 to kill political rivals and nothing could be done about it. The supreme court made up a blanket immunity doctrine anyway.

@Kandi8907 @JenelleComedy @kyledcheney No, that’s wrong. In Marbury, the court held that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land. It did not give any power or confirm any power. In fact, judicial review *isn’t* a power.

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@JenelleComedy @Kandi8907 @kyledcheney No, there is no law that says that. And the branches aren’t supposed to be equal; Congress is supposed to be pre-eminent.

@Gnome_DeGuerre @kyledcheney How is building a ballroom/bunker morally abhorrent? You’ve lost the plot.

[Callie @life_lightofmen]

YES—the government can make changes to government property and the only thing you can do is vote them out if you don’t like it.
This includes—removing statues of confederate soldiers, founding fathers, selling off the wall on the southern border, and ALSO remodeling the White House to add a ballroom.

@jasonwhitlock And what is your opinion of Coach Close?

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@OhNoTheBurds @amyewalter Planner’s not a Nazi. It should be obvious what he is, but I won’t say it since I don’t want to help him win.

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@univofmn @amyewalter Lol. That has nothing to do with RFK Junior. To the contrary, it’s due to FDR and BHO.

[Lex et Scientia @lexetscientia]

@AnimeGuyEnt @Jayinvgenius @Hero_OfThe_Day That’s still not literally, and the guy you’re responding to probably agrees with most of that.

A loan to a foreigner is essentially a non-recourse loan.

[Calvin @RealCalvin1]

I still can't believe they allowed people here on a temporary 3 year visa to get 30 year mortgages.

It's like they are trying to tank the market.
