Setting more limits on campaign donations would also be a big help.
But only as a means to keeping/retaining their own power and campaign contributions. If the people could outspend monied interests more conveniently most would probably be out on the streets a lot more shaking hands and kissing babies.
Still easier to understand than the Silmarillion.
Well China i guess you better not shoot at or get close to them then 🤷♂️
Not included in this article is the numerous times the US Government would kill a bunch of indigenous people and drive them off their land. Or the times we’d forcibly relocate them to small pockets of uninhabitable land and settle where they used to live.
Very uncommon in the US at least.
“Ah, yes, “Reapers” we have dismissed this claim.”
My understanding is that that applies to other state courts making rulings, but i cant see how that apples to apples to Secretaries of State deciding that he is an invalid candidate. Which is why it would possibly force the Trump campaign to sue and push to force the SC to rule on the issue one way or the other. Because if they dont then Trump could remain off the ballot in that state.
No no no. God’s will only applies to things Republicans like. Like Trump, the Bushes, etc. Anything that they dont like like the Clintons, Obama, etc. are clearly the work of THE DEVIL, and need to be eradicated with prejudice (something they are well known for).
Weird how that works isn’t it? 🤔
Devastated it isnt called Toe-tal.
If somebody wanted to press the issue a SoS in a state would just flat out say he isnt and force the Trump campaign to sue. Force the SC to take it up due to multiple, conflicting rulings/interpretations of the law. That might be the only way to ensure they do it in a timely manner.
That said, i dont have much faith that the SC in its current composition wouldnt just side with Trump immediately.
Correct. Setting aside other comments made which lead myself and others to argue that this is a bad faith/cowardly ruling, they posit it only covers military officers and legislative representatives to prevent them from being able to serve. Not the executive branch.
They then go on to specify that the Commander in Chief capacity in which Trump served is in he is in charge of the military, but is a representative of the public with the military subordinated to civilian authority. Not as a military officer within the structure of the armed forces.
Therefore, per this very, very pedantic (though arguably technically correct) reading of the law, they are arguing it should not be used to bar him from being on the ballot.
It’s like saying “i dont want any berries in my food” and being served strawberries. Scientifically/technically speaking they do not meet the definition. But in common parlance, understanding, and intention they are understood to be and lumped in with them.
BG3 swept pretty heavily at the Golden Joystick Awards, and is likely going to win a lot at TGA as well (deservedly so IMO). Other games it has stiff competition from include Spiderman 2, Alan Wake 2, and even fellow Nintendo game Super Mario Wonder.
In keeping with tradition though we can only do this if we add the new month after August and name it Tiber.
"Savior, conqueror, hero, villain. You are all things, KOTOR Remake… and yet you are nothing.“
Also paired with that for NMS is the fact the studio is like 35 people.

Besides, America has their own vast, vast history of systematic and institutionalized racism and segregation to learn about before we go worrying about other countries history of systematic and institutionalized racism and segregation (I say this as an American and former history major).
Some notable examples of topics simply not taught or HEAVILY glossed over at best in many US history classes:
King Phillip’s War (arguably is an English example since it predates the founding of the USA, but it happened on what would become the USA, and perpetuated by people related to those that would become Americans)
Tulsa Race Riots
The Wilmington Coup/Massacre
The American conquests of the Philippines and Hawaii
The many interventions in Mexico
Pretty much everything the CIA has ever done in South America, Asia, and Africa
That time in WWII we unconstitutionally stripped the rights from law abiding American citizens just because of their Japanese ancestry and put them in concentration camps
Unfortunately, this is barely even scratching the surface.
To add to this, during their various debates and declarations, state legislatures of Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia all explicitly gave slavery as the primary reason for their attempt to destroy the United States government. So literally more than half.
