Alright, President Trump, I'll see your invocation of the Alien and Sedition Acts and raise you an invocation of Jefferson and Madison's Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions.

Maybe in the upcoming conflicts between blue states and the Trump administration Democratic Governors and left/liberal advocates should pick up some of the old paleoconservative arguments for state's rights and state nullification of federal laws. Marxism-Calhounism?

Jury #nullification FTW.

It's not just a lot to expect, it's diametrically opposite to the way the system is designed. The Americans' 2nd amendment to their constitution exists explicitly to ensure that "the People" can resist the federal government with violence.
I agree that it's going to be difficult to convict him, though whoever prosecutes it will do their absolute damnedest to ensure the jurors never hear the words "jury nullification" (though they already do that, of course...).
A π§΅ about #CivicDisobedience, a state-level corollary to #CivilDisobedience. #RedStates have polished #Nullification to perfection, & now #BlueStates will have to. The #TrumpAdministration can't impose its will on 12-15 states in quiet #rebellion all at once. This is NOT about #violence; not needed.

Hello Mastodon!
I'm here to promote a social discord server specifically for post-transition/late stage transition trans people. How you identify as a trans or nonbinary person does not matter as long as you consider yourself completed or near completion in your transition! This community exists because most online trans communities are overwhelmingly represented by people who are pre/early-transition. The server has a vetting process for safety purposes which just involves showing some proof of your trans status and telling us a little about yourself. Additionally, if you have had or are actively pursuing surgery we can connect you to surgery support communities too.
This link is good for 10 uses, just to test the waters.

' Republican-controlled legislatures are ignoring the law because they have decided that defiance is good politics. The same impulse that led former President Donald Trump to falsely claim that he did not lose the 2020 election ... is now infecting the rest of the party. Like Wallace, modern-day Republicans would rather be forced to step aside than do the right thing. That is the lesson of Alabama 60 years ago and today. '

Is It Forensics or Is It Junk Science?
Dubious forensic techniques have spread throughout the criminal justice system for decades. Hereβs what ProPublica has learned about junk forensic science techniques and how they proliferate.

This is why juries don't mean shit. The poor cop was so afraid for his life that within a 24-second span, he hit the man with a flashlight over 19 times while the victim screamed, "I'm not resisting!" Truly a dangerous profession for everyone that encounters these jackbooted Neanderthals. #ACAB #1312Always #LAPol #DeepSouth #JuriesAreBullshit #Nullification #Racism #TheGestapo
