….well except women. They must submit to state and religious authority. GTFO with your “power with the people” nonsense. Power with white men, maybe. Power with rich white men, definitely. |
Conservatives, why on earth do you support these con men?! |
Their ideology basically aspires to flouting government/laws while enriching and empowering yourself, regardless of social costs. In short, Bannon is an aspirational figure to them. |
He surrendered in NYC this morning

Is this charge identical to the federal charge for which he was pardoned? If so, even though the argument is that federal pardons don't apply to state charges, it still seems dubious to me at best. |
Dual sovereignty and state’s rights are dubious? Have you read the cindtitution? A president isn’t a king. Bannon could have gone to trial and jeopardy would have attached to preclude a successive prosecution. |
Forgetting this, is he sentenced to prison? How long? |
Awwww. He doesn't get to scam a million bucks out of the pockets of the magas donating to build the wall even with his scummy pardon? Poor thing. |
The president's pardon power is limited to federal offenses; the Constitution only grants the president the power to pardon "offenses against the United States."An offense that violates state law, but not federal law, is an offense against that state rather than an offense against the United States. |
Beautiful!
He’s facing state prison. No Club Fed for Bonkers Bannon. |
Maybe he’ll be seeking the less scenic side of Fishkill? |
Ha! Deciding what books are banned, what books are sold, what religion is to be observed in public schools, deciding what prescriptions my daughters can get and when basedon the date of their last menstrual period, madating vaginal wandings FFS. Yeah they are just a tiny bit authoritarian. Except guns, guns for everyone! Guns in the classroom! Guns for teachers - who they hate anyway. |
Dubious? So King POTUS can make state charges go away now? Oh OK. So much for state's rights. Good to know. |
