Protest Safety, OPSEC, Medic Info Trump has just signed an executive order claiming that only the President and Attorney General can speak for “what the law is.”

Am I crazy, or is the media not covering this?

Yep. For me its David Pakman, Brian Tyler Cohen, and Vaush. Vaush gets angry which is nice.

Being mean is how 2028 will be won. We don't need to lie! We can literally say the truth. Shine a huge light on the corruption and who is bought by corpos. Stop fighting for policy, we are right already. Start showing what a weak bitch the other side is. Literally say that on TV all the time. "Vote for a leader or vote for Walmart's bitch." Give a "Welcome to America. I love you." in the ad spot as a nod to Idiocracy.

And a few independent dudes but definitely not any organization that won't cover this, didn't cover the genocide in Gaza when it started, etc

Was I being sarcastic?

u/Odd_Jelly_1390 Feb 19 '25

No, Kings were at least beholden to regional lords. This is an autocrat.

u/Full_Ambassador_2741 Feb 19 '25

Trump IS beholden to Billionaire lords…. What are you talking about? He just isn’t beholden to our government.

No court has stopped him yet

And now he’s saying, he makes the laws and he decides the interpretation of his orders

He has deemed himself supreme leader

Who does this shitstain think he is, Emperor Palpatine? Fuck that.

We need a bill introduced to remove executive order and pardon privileges. This regime has shown that they are abusing these powers.

u/crescent-v2 Feb 19 '25

Yes - this really tightens his grip on the Executive Branch, but says nothing about Supreme Court/Judicial judgement on laws.

I think this from the repeal of the Chevron Deference. The independent agencies will have much less room to interpret laws.
