ceenote@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•A Federal Judge Is on the Brink of Criminally Prosecuting Trump Officials for Contempt10·6 days agoPretty much this is what I’m worried about. Hopefully the government record keeping laws are robust enough that they can eke out a real answer about responsibility by threatening additional charges over failure to document those.

I think this is likely to be the hangup. Everything with this administration is so chaotic and ad-hoc that it might be hard to pin it on a single person or group. If they don’t have beyond-reasonable-doubt certainty that the person they’re holding in contempt is responsible, it’ll probably just get overturned, weakening the bigger Trump v Courts battle.
Not sure if meme piracy or new meme…
The book worked on too many people for this to be funny to me.

For all it’s flaws, the TPP was about to effectively zone China out of trading advantageously with the whole developed world. Now, US instability and bullying have made Japan and South Korea partner with China.
Trump is handing China the 21st century on a silver platter.

That’s a lot, but not something they can’t adapt to. Plus, they can blame any broken air conditioners and flickering lights on the increasingly unpopular president.

Is this the least qualified cabinet in the history of the US? Maybe they should have gone with more DEI hires.
