    Liberals are so far removed from the reality of what happens in their political system that they are making memes about understanding the ruling while simultaneously not demanding that the person supposedly on their team who is ACTUALLY IN CHARGE takes zero advantage of these new rulings to do things that are beneficial/what they want.

    To them it is literally our team vs your team and that’s it.

        Unfortunately nobody expected Biden to be charged with genocide. Trump, Obama, the Bushes, Clinton, there is a long line of genocide and not once has anyone been held accountable.

      Eh idk about that in this case. This comic was on the front page of Reddit last night and the comments had a similar sentiment.

        I think the meme is using hyperbole but I’m not. I don’t think Biden supporters want to literally do that to mar a lago, but I do think they are making jokes about a ruling that shows they understand it while simultaneously not pushing Biden to do anything with his newly affirmed powers

          Oh yeah totally. He could arrest trump and all his cronies. He could push past regulations to quickly legalize weed nationwide and go up in polls. He could literally drone strike the Supreme Court. But he won’t.

    My red line is still genocide.

    But assuming he stops arm shipments in the next couple months, bombing the s*** out of Mar-A-Lago would go a long way toward earning my vote in November.

    Yeah but who decides what an "official" act is? That's right, it's this person.

    if he managed to get all the workers just trying to get by out first, I would vote for Joe for bombing m-

    No I wouldn't, he'd do the same shit to lefties to be centrist

      There's plenty of precedent for bombing America; the destruction of black wall street, the Chicago MOVE bombing... You just have to declare Trump black first and then it's ok by American standards.

        indeed, in 1921 leftover explosives and chemical weapons from WW1 were dropped on striking miners in West Virginia and the very first purpose-built bomber planes purchased by the US military were deployed there by President Harding.

        the president has indeed deployed military assets to extrajudicially murder Americans in America, but it has always been against the working class.

        to use the military against the bourgeoisie would be certainly regarded in the bourgeoisie media frame as somehow a "crime", in the same way that Hitler doing genocide in Europe was regarded some new depravity even though it was essentially what Churchill had done to India, the US/Canada/Aus did to their indigenous, Northern Europe had done to West Africa for centuries and regarded themselves as great, civilizing nations.

        Then this won't work, Biden can only declare people not black.

      It breaks all kind of laws, but if it's done under the color of an official presidential action (eg national security), it can't be prosecuted, according to the Supreme Court. Unless they change their minds because they don't like a particular action.
