Why not? He could make the argument that the election was stolen and ignoring it is in the best interest of the United states.
because that act is not POTUS’s job. He’s making the argument as a candidate. he’s not supposed to be part of that process because he’s biased.
as for whose to say what’s reasonable… that is the problem. right now a dangerous number of SCOTUS are bought and paid for, or are absolutely partisan hacks.
For the record, that would be an illegal order and should be refused by everyone involved in the military chain.
(Whether or not it is refused is a different matter.)
They sent back the question of what is an official act. And when the judge comes back with something like “official acts are those in which a president is acting in an official capacity as the president to fulfill obligations and duties of the president.” (IANAL….so there’s probably some anal retentive detail that is super critical in missing)
In any case, when challenging the election, that is not an official act- that was something done by Trump-the-candidate.
Inviting foreign dignitaries, however frequently is. (But probably not when selling out America and other spies to keep compromat from leaking)
Organizing an insurrection in the US never is, however.
I’m alarmed by the alarm in the dissent- they probably know where this is going, but POTUS has enjoyed some immunity anyhow as far as official acts go. And when it’s kept to a reasonable understanding… that’s more or less good.
Their alarm suggests that the majority here is not going to have a reasonable understanding when that gets appealed.
Agreed it’s just a different technique, but I’d suggest some techniques are more objectionable than others- both of these are on about that same tier.
or maybe you could understand why it’s a form of torture and understand what I’m trying to say.
Hint: because it put somebody into a vulnerable, easily manipulated state. whether she knew it or not, she was taking advantage of that vulnerable state. she brushed off prior attempts to talk it out, which is fine. But she doesn’t get to unilaterally expect that conversation on her timetable. He gets to say ‘no, I’m not in a place to talk about this,’ too.
Are you the gf? Do you know if they did? Or will?
Or are you just assuming?
Or are you suggesting that I’m being over dramatic? Cuz, she woke him up in the middle of sleeping at night. Sleep deprivation is absolutely a form of torture, and while it’s probably not sleep deprivation (yet) it’s absolutely manipulative as fucking hell.
I can’t know if OP is exaggerating or not, or if they’re going to or not. Yes that’s an assumption on my part.
As related, though, the behaviors described are heavily manipulative.
As related: she decided unilaterally when to have that conversation. And she decided to do it when OP was near-comatose in sleep. An altered state that being roused from does not contribute to reasonable conversation.
Walking away is fine, but it could have (and should have,) waited until the morning.
Now look at what she’s saying is the problem- he missed a text, but also wasn’t waiting to escort her downstairs. Ultimately- if this is legitimate on her part it’s “you don’t care about me”.
Now look at the fears she is expressing- that it’s literally unsafe to get dropped at the curb and walk in. While it’s certainly possible, the reality is that if it’s that unsafe, then asking what he’d do- and she jumps straight to killing?!
And the CCTV stuff- which OP has no realistic way of knowing or resolving.
Yeah; no. All of this is meant to put OP on the defensive, in a state that OP is not able to think clearly. As relayed it’s straight up manipulation, and if the most vile sort.
This is absolutely manipulative.
Whether she realizes it or not, refusing to engage or talk about it, except in her own time frame- is not a good sign for a healthy relationship, and when she did decide to talk about it, put you into a compromised position- being unable to think clearly.
The questions she’s asking are meant to elicit fear and massive guilt. Though to be blunt, I’m going to assume there’s no real danger of any of that happening, I assume the neighborhood is fairly safe. Because usually it is.
As for what you’d do…? Call the cops. Duh. You (probably) don’t have the resources to find any one and kill them, and besides which, if she’s really asking that you do, uhm… dodge that bullet.
Sleep deprivation is a form of torture.
This is absolutely manipulative.
Still rampant manipulation, though.
I’d say at least on the level of gaslighting
I assumed it was designed to survive some proximity to a nuclear strike. But definitely not a close-hit, or direct strike.
Far enough away and shielded enough that the flash of radiation doesn’t render its occupants immediately dead.
Generally speaking, multivitamins do nothing.
This is known.
The reason they do nothing is that most people have a reasonable diet that hits all the micros. It doesn’t even have to be a stellar diet, or even vaguely “healthy”, per se.
If your diet already includes the micros; then your body just shits or pisses them out. If you have an actual deficiency in something, it’s probably not diet related and more to do with uptake. Either way, that’s a conversation for you and your doctor, not a pill pusher advert
This is my go to when people are over around that time of year and want to watch a “Christmas classic”
Usually they’re something depressing like It’s a Wonderful Life or something straight up annoying, like The Grinch.
(Can I just say it- the Who’s of Whoville are shitty neighbors.)
A runner up is Home Alone.
Or selling off illegally settled real estate out of a synagogue…
… how do you debug?!?
How do you copy and past everything from the broad shoulders of those who’ve come before?
Hooched awn Foniqs Werked phone mini!
In any case I’d be shocked if handwriting wasn’t used for something other than note taking.
I’m not sure if he’s trying to help biden… you know… by making it sound like Biden actually did the right fucking thing here and cut off the genocidal maniac… or trying to fuck biden; because we all know that Biden will ship harder for Netty-Boo
Chances are he was more like a cult leader it wasn’t until a decade or two after his death that things really got into full swing, so chances are the actual Jesus would be quite surprised by everything “he” did.
But there were a lot of Jewish mystics cropping up at the time so it’s not impossible or even implausible for some one vaguely matching the description to have existed.
I was trying to figure out wtf people were doing in Spore (the video game.)
insults aren’t illegal, and spam mail isn’t generally illegal either. as far as I know, there’s no law against sending an occasional email even if it is spam. the general exceptions are for commercial/businesses types and that’s generally only really illegal when it breaks the email carriers.
besides which, the OP is talking about opening a ticket on Reddit’s customer service system, not actually sending an email. Spez won’t even see it.
Didn’t we give them nukes a while back?
So she gets to unilaterally decide when they talk? including, when the OP is in a vulnerable mental state? I think you’re focusing too much on what the GF needs and denying the OP the same you’d give her. The fact that he was sleeping would definitely suggest he’s not ready to have the conversation.
