Right. AI checkers are probably powered by AI.
1. Best groce is an opinion
2. Studies can’t tell us what’s the best opinion to have
IIRC, Mississippi and Louisiana’s test scores were adjusted to account for poverty, race and other factors to make the scores go up

But the authors of the recent study wrote that this issue was particularly pertinent in Japan, where “sexual behaviours are often described as a contradictory mix of permissiveness and expectations of discretion.


There’s the answer. They know how to keep their mouths shut.

An analysis of Constitutional authority has nothing to do with judging how good/bad a law is or how much it may help citizens. The analysis is solely whether or not the action by government was legal.


False. Courts legitimately consider policy all the time. It’s not simply rigorous logic with well-defined premises. If it were, computer scientists and logisicians would have taken over the legal field a long time ago.

In close cases, where both sides’ positions are well supported, courts select how to frame the issues, based frequently on policy, and reason from there.
I’ll say this.

We have leases there RIGHT NOW we don't use. We hardly have any troops there.

Under current treaty, we can drastically expand our presence. Trump should do so immediately.


Too expensive. Have you checked the national debt lately?

Other NATO members need to step up. Instead of talking a big game but never delivering.

Trump is very close to getting them to put their money where their mouth is.

If the Supreme Court finds he didn't have authority under the conditions the president used, but DOES have authority under other conditions, could that be a means to allow the tariffs to continue without the need to unravel everything?


I think so. They could say citing the wrong statute was just an administrative error, the tariffs were authorized under the other authority without the magic words being cited, and no refunds to China and friends.
quote:

But the issue is most (all?) were enacted pursuant to a law that may not grant the President the authority to enact them. The determination if he had the power is a binary proposition.


Well for one thing Justice Amy Coney Barrett strongly indicated that unwinding already paid tariffs would be a rats nest.

What is more, trade imbalance predicate could be struck down as not an emergency sufficient to enable import regulation while fentanyl is.

In the end though regulating imports has historically included the ability to impose tariffs. So the Admin will get the outright W.
quote:

Correct. This likely wouldn't stop the putative investments, but any amounts paid under the illegal tariffs would have to be reimbursed unless the court does something very weird/strange to cover for the admin's major error.


There were different tariffs levied against different countries on different basis. Eg, Fentanyl against Canada, México and China; trade imbalances against many; economic security; and national security.

Not an all or nothing proposition either way

re: SCOTUS votes tomorrow on tariffs.

And just like clockwork DJT announces. 25% tariff on any country that does business with Iran.

Makes it harder for SCOTUS to rule against.

Trump would have more of a leg to stand on with this if he hadn’t just bulldozed 1/4 of the White House for a ballroom and accepted a 747 as a “gift” that will cost billions to re-fit. Lunacy and hypocrisy. I really don’t understand how anyone can support these losers.


1. All of the remodel is paid for by Trump and donors. No taxpayer money spent

2. It is the new Air Force 1. He’s leaving it when he departs the White House

Several cucks who found out would be told it’s just exercising. And stop being defensive

Biden essentially did this during the 2024 campaign by only approving de minimus secret service for Trump. This was with active credible death threats againat Orange. And they tried to kill him at least twice.

Democrats want their opposition killed. Then turn around and say Republicans are dictators.

Go figure.

That's all fine and well. But what does it have to do with the issue I raised, which was with his comment that the "best medicine in the world" would be "free"? Are cars free? Are flights free?

Why would the best medicine become free? He just says things, and never thinks about why he's saying it. Such an outrageous declaration demands explanation.


Decent medical care is already free for a lot of people around the world.

We’re entering the age of abundance. A lot of things will be very close to free or very affordable.
