The president’s son is currently standing trial on three felony gun charges that could carry a sentence of up to 25 years in jail if he is found guilty....
Imagine a population made up entirely of werewolves, then one day out of a thousand years the rare astrological phenomenon occurs where all the moons are on one side of the planet.
Suddenly, everyone on the other side of the planet starts convulsing and shrinks into these weird, defenseless little hairless naked mole rat looking monsters. Be a real mind fuck.
I’m sure there are plenty of them on the left too, but what all the concern trolls and honest idiots are missing is that democrats actually produce evidence and valid legal charges.
Please conservatives, I want to get rid of corrupt officials on either side. If you have some evidence then use it in the court of law!
And if you don’t have it, get off your ass and do some real investigative journalism and find it.
That… actually would be a genius strategy to force the issue of presidential immunity to be resolved. Time to get biden a 30 day prison sentence for reckless driving his Camero, doing doughnuts on the national mall.
Growing pains. States that work with the IRS will be able to (relatively) easily setup a way to receive the information from the IRS in a way that makes the states job easier too. This is a win for everyone except the tax preparing industry.
Critics of a new Louisiana law, which makes it a crime to approach within 25 feet (7.6 meters) of a police officer under certain circumstances, fear that the measure could hinder the public’s ability to film officers — a tool that has increasingly been used to hold police accountable....
Well, see the problem is now officers can yell at people to fuck off, and when they later argue in court that they were fat enough away all the cop has to say is “per my judgment they appeared to be within…” and regardless of how stupid they may have to pretend to be, they are protected. They now have legal cover to intimidate random members of the public.
From copilot: "Yes, you’re correct. The doctrine of qualified immunity does protect individual police officers from legal consequences in certain circumstances. It shields government officials, including law enforcement officers, from liability for civil damages as long as their conduct does not violate “clearly established statutory or constitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known"².
This means that if a police officer, under a mistaken understanding of the law or a mistaken observation of facts, conducts an arrest or detention, they may be granted qualified immunity if they can show that they believed in good faith that their actions were lawful. The standard is whether a reasonable officer could have believed the arrest to be lawful, given the circumstances. This protection applies even if the officer’s belief was mistaken, as long as the mistake is reasonable¹³.
However, qualified immunity is not absolute. If the law was clearly established at the time of the incident, such that a reasonable officer would understand that what they are doing violates that right, then qualified immunity would not protect them⁵. The application of this doctrine is complex and often depends on the specific facts of each case, as well as the jurisdiction in which the incident occurred. It’s a topic of ongoing legal debate and has been subject to scrutiny and calls for reform¹³.”
In the grand tent of democracy, “12 Ring Circus” takes you deeper into the trial that has the world on edge. Twelve jurors hold the power to alter the course of history. Each represents a voice, a perspective, a decision that could either uphold the legacy of the republic or send it spiraling into chaos. As the former president, turned clown, performs his act, the twelve will deliberate. Their verdict, a tightrope walk between justice and mercy, will resonate through the annals of time. In this circus, the final act is not just a performance—it’s a pivotal moment that will define a nation’s destiny. “12 Ring Circus,” where the fate of the free world hangs in the balance of twelve.
