Hissy fit, whining and insubordination incoming.
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

followed by SCROTUS' capitulation and groveling.
I'm not sure. The admin has been threatening the justices lately, albeit indirectly. They might use this to make a point.
The also have an incentive to preserve their own power when not declaring every branch of the government other than the executive obsolete.

That's a misunderstand of human nature imho. I don't think they do - at least not as a legal body. It turns out personal comfort and wealth is just fine for several of them. Who cares if you can rule over cases when you have a shiny new motor home and are spending the weekend at a wealthy friend's island?
It's how corruption works.
You don't get any more bribes if you hold no power worth getting bribes for.
These are greedy people. There's never "enough" for them. Closing off that channel is not in their own self interests.

You ever wonder why dictatorships across the world have courts? Because they give the dictator legitimacy. That is why you bribe judges. You can be absolutely servile to the dictator but still have worth.
That’s what you’d expect, but we’ve seen them pretty OK with the erosion for years now. Lately it seems like maybe there’s one collective backbone among the nine of them, but I’m not convinced of anything just yet.
Also the supreme court will allow king Trump
This always seemed to be the outcome, I’m just surprised it took this long for the court to speak up? Like hello, it’s been MONTHS of this nonsense.
Time to reign this rogue president in. Congress better do its job, and not let one man break the backbone of American democracy.
Actual law doesn't work how Taco uses it. Judges can't just declare something is unlawful. There are hearings, procedures, evidence and thought. This is how the law actually works.
This specific court most certainly has very special processes and procedures that other courts don't follow.
I was wondering. How could one person fuck up trade this bad? This can’t be how things were ment to run.
Congress is letting him. A forceful united Congress could prevent this from ever happening, but they're all a bunch ot bloodless dickless empty suits
Basically a bunch of rich dudes with land who knew how to read Greek and Latin and were steeped in the philosophy of the time had stars in their eyes and believed that they could come up with something that would work specifically based on the good will and good faith of all the actors involved. They were very naive about human nature and did not put in any real protections against bad actors.
Eh, it was actually their second attempt. Their first one failed pretty hard (the articles of Confederacy) so they made adjustments. I think they would be shocked that we stuck with their second attempt this long (and through a civil war, no less).
IIRC, in the first attempt the federal government was much weaker overall and the state governments had their own executives and stuff and the whole thing kinda wound up being a bureaucratic nightmare. In their second attempt they thought it might be best to have a reasonably powerful executive.
They were naive in some ways and definitely made mistakes and were racist slavers and genocidal generally speaking, but yeah.
I didn't even know a trade court existed until now.
And now I'm wondering what took them so long. Trump's been wreaking havoc unilaterally, with Congress' endorsement, for months. Hopefully between this and losing Congress in a year and a half, we'll his power blunted sufficiently.
It is interesting will they weasel them out anyway, i.e. is the country very deeply compromised
Now they will go cry to papa Alito and uncle Clarance
hmmm...
By now Don TACO and co know tariffs are a disaster policy (hence his chickening out)... Navarro is a hack and this is very very public and evident by now.
If anything, this gives them a out that allows them to save some face. If they had an iota of a neuron left, they would take it, roll back the mess they made and blame the courts to keep the MAGAtards happy... so then won't, they'll fight tooth and nail to keep the insanity going LOL
Uncle Thomas, Clarence
so the USA gets to pay it all back now, right?
Cool
So why did you allow him to pull this shit for months, wrecking the US economy (bwhahahahha, you got what you voted for!), alienating allies and so forth?
The US is the laughing stick of the world now. Not that I care much about it, but dude, why did you allow Clusterfuck Mc Clownface to do this for so long?
Gutted. I was enjoying that.
