I hate to be the Akshually guy but they're truly not laws. They're directives for the federal agencies under the control of the executive branch. They have the " force of law " (assuming they're aligned with the constitutional authority of the president) but they're not laws.
They don't create crimes, do budgets, or override congress.
i think i see the problem. i think you're an Aussie. in your legal system that might actually be true. i'm in statesia. in a past life i wrote a few entries in the Code of Federal Regulations, if that gives you some guess to the quality of the thinking in there. looking for sense in the government is the quickest path to insanity
i think it's that we're arguing from different perspectives. for most people, a law is a regulation is a procedure is an executive order. they all carry about the same weight. when you actually deal with legal specifics the differences matter but to most folk they're cinnamon rolls.
In that press conference you can see woman in green's face. This screenshot is from right when he shit his pants and the smell reached her nose at the speed of stench. Immediately afterward they kick all the press out.
It looks real to me. The reactions aren't large, and maybe the shart noise at 0:34 could have been edited in, but... it all fit together with the way Trump and staff suddenly rushed the press out of the room.
0:35 is the alleged shart. Within seconds he's trying to wrap it up. At 0:39 he's suddenly trying to immediately wrap it up. At 0:42 the woman in green arguably reacts. More reactions from the woman in green again at 0:47 and 0:53. At 0:51 he literally gestures the press out of the room without actually moving from his chair.
If this was a grand jury, you'd get an indictment for sure. It could not be a shart, but it looks like a shart, sounds like a shart, and the woman in green smells it like a shart.
Someone needs to make a cut off the video where he gets asleep,cuts to the clip where he is crowned, cut to the clip where he get in the plane and launches shit on Americans, and cut back to reality where he shat himself and the journalists are asked to leave the office in a rush.
Yo did anyone notice the code word “I hear”? As soon as he said it everyone knew “oh god the president is shidding himself RIGHT NOW”… and then he said it again and held bros hand looked deeply into his eyes and bro looked back at him as if to say “yes Mr president, let’s get you to the changing room!”

IDK man... I think Nukem might have voted for Trump if he was real. He hates aliens that much.

But he loves babes even more. And the Cheeto isn't good to the babes.

Old Duke was fun back then. DNF, bit of a train wreck isn’t it? After that whole debacle and it being ran into ground by Pitchford. No thx.

I refuse to accept that the trainwreck called "Duke Nukem Forever" is real. Fuck Randy though.

Declarations. Executive orders. Not bills.
Bills create law. He ain't doing that. Most of what he does is not legal.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · -7 pts · 222d
executive orders are still law, they just carry less weight than legislative writ. it's complicated.

if something has the force of law, it's a law analogue and you're arguing sophistry.
pupbiru@aussie.zone · 9 pts · 222d
law is the profession of specifics… it’s not sophistry; it’s technicality
just like trump is not a convicted rapist: he was convicted of sexual assault
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · -5 pts · 222d
excuse me the entire practice of law is sophistry i almost married a lawyer i should know.
pupbiru@aussie.zone · 6 pts · 222d
the law is not intended to deceive. the words are complex by necessity, but complexity is not sophistry

OldManWithACane@lemmy.zip · 5 pts · 222d
I'm not though. They're truly different things and I promise I'm not arguing in bad faith.
The differences I mentioned are material, especially that an executive order cannot arbitrarily criminalize something.

If only he was half as cool as the duke.
MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 221d
I'm not very familiar with this character, but I'm guessing that Duke Nukem would only go to Epstein Island once.
And the only ones coming back would be him and the victims he rescued.
And after that... "Call me Santa, because I have a list and I'm checking it twice... except no one on here is any bit nice."

What's this about Trump shitting his pants, by the way? It's not the first time I've heard about it, but when I looked it up I found nothing.

AI told me it was actually a chair sliding off screen and said it was visible in other videos but it couldn't link me to the exact point.
As much as I don't like Trump either, I continue to doubt this claim without further evidence

Yeah to me this fits under "a good chance but we'll probably never know for sure."
Of note is that the video came from right aligned news, so the odds of a malicious edit are very low.

Duke Nukem would 100% murder the shit out of Trump.
The Duke is a successful businessman for one, women actually want to be with him and, most important, he is not a fucking pedo.
