Trump's first extrajudicial killing coming?

Who am I kidding, it's not the first lol

[–] Zorsith@piefed.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 days ago

Wouldn't even be the first this week

If anyone is to get the death penalty—which I’m against—it should be the people calling for him to get the death penalty.

I’m a fan of barely-restrained snark. That closing sentence is a great example.

[–] fodor@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Of course that's possible, but I don't think a judge or an appeals court is likely to determine that the first violation of the judge's order takes the death penalty off the table. Judges almost always bend over backwards to protect the state. If they keep talking now, that might result in some kind of mild sanctions that somehow affect reality in some slight way, possibly.

This plus the mishandling of evidence has derailed cases before. The one that comes to mind is Weather Underground. There isn't much doubt that they blew up some monuments and were planning some more. None of them were ever prosecuted because the FBI fucked up.

Really if the state is messing with the jury it should be an automatic mistrial. The reason is so the government learns their lesson and shuts the fuck up and stops trying to influence the jurors. If the judge doesn't do this then of course trump will keep sticking his dick in every legal process that doesn't go his way.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

You won't be able to rely on the judge, so it'll come down to jury nullification.

Expect an executive order banning that any day now (not that such a ban would make any sense or be enforceable for any reason other than "Trump don't like it.")

Mansions saved thousands of lives and more for future generations. Those poor people being denied health…

Nah this thread isn't about the housing crisis

How, is united healtcare bankrupt? Did they change and approve everyone? AFAIK they are just as scummy with a different CEO.
