Despite a court order, White House bars AP from Oval Office event - sh.itjust.works

Last week’s federal court decision forbidding the Trump administration from punishing the AP for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico was to take effect Monday. The administration is appealing the decision and arguing with the news outlet over whether it needs to change anything until those appeals are exhausted. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit set a Thursday hearing on Trump’s request that any changes be delayed while case is reviewed. The AP is fighting for more access as soon as possible.

“Despite court order…” is becoming the ubiquitous intro to news about the Trump administration.
i know they wouldn’t be getting a conviction, but the dems seriously have to be bringing up impeachment if they want any political future for themselves, and they need to be doing it frequently
Impeachment is a circus act now. I’d rather they spent thier energy actually doing something useful.
Truly curious. Like what?

Please, just let the Dems die off and become the neoliberal republicans they’ve always aspired to be.

We need a new party that is actually left of center to even begin repairing this level of damage to the republic.

Dems. Ain’t. It. Too old, too corrupt, and F tier political messaging.

so we’re clear i don’t give a fuck about the dems. i give a fuck about community survival
cool… and your plan is? because if its anything but keep voting for dems until you change the system then i’ve got cheeto shaped news for ya bud: that’s how ya fucking got this mess

With state level electoral reform, multiple political parties could compete on who could defeat the republicans the best. If any of the new parties don’t do well, people could be free to transfer their vote to the democratic party should they choose to do so. All free of a spoiler effect.

You know, democracy. Democracy is not "vote for my preference or else. That is a hostage situation and should be treated like the crisis it truly is. I want town halls every day taking questions on what voting system to use. Every day until it’s passed. At the bare minimum in the vast majority of blue states.

Republicans are moving to protect First Past the Post voting in states they control. Florida made Ranked choice voting illegal. Alaskan Republicans tried to switch their state from Ranked Choice Voting back to FPTP because Ranked choice voting helped keep Sarah Palin out of office.

Why are the democrats using the voting system that Republicans prefer? Isn’t that the most ultragigagigantic red flag ever if Republicans like something? Especially when it comes to how we vote.

I could tolerate putting the democrats on my ballot as a backup. But I cannot tolerate shitlibs smuggly telling me I dont get to vote how I want and then doing nothing to change the voting system between elections. And not just this last election. Every election throughout my life.

These days the democrats think they got us so locked down, so whipped, so desperate that they can just genocide whoever the fuck they want and they expect us to not only suck and swallow, but to thank them for the opportunity. Big smiles to, or else youre a secret a Russian Republican agent!

Fuck that.

Fuck that forever.

We can have a choice in the voting booth. We can have multiple chances to defeat the republicans. We don’t need to beg for representation in government. Its tax day, and we should not accept taxation without representation. The republicans, we all know how they feel about democracy. How do the democrats feel about democracy? This is bare minimum shit here. If we can’t pass this purity test, Republicans don’t need to do anything to topple democracy in this nation, it already doesn’t exist.

We will see how many blue states pass this crucial voting reform before the next election in a year and some. I don’t have any real expectations. People do what’s easy. And what’s easier then doing nothing and screaming how it’s the most important election ever and voters dont get to vote how they want?

Again.

Plenty of presidents have defied court orders. The type of order matters greatly. Defying injunctions is only contempt of court. This was a ruling, as was the return of Garcia. These are defining of a constitutional crisis.
