During a Tuesday hearing at the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, the DOJ urged a three-judge panel to issue an emergency stay of a lower court order and allow the Trump administration’s deployment of the California National Guard to continue in Los Angeles — going so far as to argue a president’s federalization of militia can’t be second-guessed by the courts, even if the chief executive mobilized forces from all 50 states and Washington, D.C., simultaneously.

    How do you read “take responsibility for their impact” and then jump to “solely to blame.” I swear people just hear what they want so they have a reason to be angry.

      Are they to blame, or are they small enough to ignore?

      Which one? I get that you want both. But you only get one.

        I’m curious as to why you think you have the kind of authority in anyone’s life to tell them they have to decide between two dipshit choices you present them.

        These dumbfucks made an incredibly stupid decision, whether they ended up being too small a group to make the difference or not. They’re still dumbfucks that chose their own perceived moral superiority over the wellbeing of their country.
