They must have borrowed Vernon's calculator for their total.

Yeah right. I don't believe a word of it.

MS NOW how now brown cow.

He doesn't have the power to change or eliminate how people vote. The Constitution says states have the authority to decide how their people vote NOT the federal government. He's just trying to usurp powers he doesn't have yet again.

Absentee ballots have chain of custody
Mail in ballots like those in CA don't.
It's pretty simple, but clearly beyond your education level.

Absentee ballots go through the same mail service that mail in ballots do. There's no difference between the two.

OOPSIE DAISY

How are old people supposed to vote?

They obviously don't care. It's how to rig the system in order to stay in power. They don't have a good policy so they cheat to win.

Is it any good?? I've never watched it before so I don't know.

This is what being the target of two assassination attempts will do to a man.

ROFLMMFAO HEHEHEHEHE THAT'S Hilarious. Nobody believes that. Not anybody serious.

Newsweek has become a right wing screed. Sad to see. It isn't worthy to be outhouse paper. Just sayin

--- Trump and --- Putin too. This is a shameful period for America. We have let Ukraine down after promising them we would defend them if attacked if they gave up their nukes. Sad to see.

Oh lovely.

He would ruin a child's birthday party. He would want all of the presents and cake.

The silence is deafening.

That there are different due processes in the US system. They all don't have to go through a court system.

Actually they do. Who else has the power to determine if due processes are fulfilled hmmmmmmmmmmm??

Alexandrite, to help you understand your own Constitution better, think of it as a FRAMEWORK.
It didn't have all the answers, and hoped the people could fill in the blanks.

Yes, due process is required for deportation. The U.S. Constitution guarantees due process rights to all individuals within the United States, including non-citizens, regardless of their immigration status. This means that individuals facing deportation have the right to a fair and impartial hearing before an immigration judge.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
What is Due Process?
Due process, as guaranteed by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, ensures that the government cannot deprive individuals of life, liberty, or property without following fair legal procedures.
Application to Deportation:
In deportation cases, due process includes the right to be informed of the charges against them, the right to legal representation, the right to present evidence in their defense, and the right to a fair hearing.
Exceptions and Limitations:
While due process is a fundamental right, there can be limitations or variations in its application depending on the specific circumstances. For example, expedited removal procedures may be used for individuals who entered the country without authorization and have been in the country for a short period, but even in these cases, certain due process protections still apply, especially for those seeking asylum.
Importance of Due Process:
Due process is crucial in deportation cases because it ensures fairness and prevents arbitrary or unjust decisions. It allows individuals to present their case, challenge the evidence against them, and potentially avoid deportation if they can demonstrate a legal basis to remain in the United States.

Yes, due process is required in deportation proceedings in the United States.
Specifically, the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution states that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. The Supreme Court has consistently ruled that the Due Process Clause applies to all people in the United States, including non-citizens, regardless of their immigration status.
In the context of deportation, due process generally means the government must provide individuals with fair treatment, including:
Notice: Individuals must be informed of the charges against them and the reasons for the proposed deportation.
Opportunity to be Heard: They must have a chance to present their case, challenge the evidence against them, and argue for any potential relief from deportation, typically through a hearing before an immigration judge.
Access to Counsel: While the government is not obligated to provide free legal representation

Personally, I am looking forward to the WH Wrestling Extravaganza bouts featuring Burly Boy the ICE Agent against Homeless Vet Man.
Should be fun!

Not me. That's just Trump defacing the office of the presidency even more than he already has.

Congress controls DC NOT the president. The only thing that the president controls is the DC national guard.

Yes, Washington D.C. is a federal territory. It is specifically designated as the District of Columbia, created by the U.S. Constitution to serve as the nation's capital. The District is under the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. Congress.
Here's why:
Constitutional Mandate:
The U.S. Constitution in Article I, Section 8, Clause 17, authorizes Congress to establish a federal district to serve as the seat of government.
Not Part of Any State:
The District of Columbia is not part of any state and is not a state itself.
Exclusive Congressional Jurisdiction:
The Constitution specifies that the District is under the "exclusive legislation" of Congress.
Federal Enclave:
The District of Columbia is considered a federal enclave, meaning it is a piece of land owned by the federal government and not part of any state.
Home Rule:
While D.C. has a local government with a mayor and city council, it operates under a system of "Home Rule" where Congress retains oversight and budgetary control.

My nextdoor neighbor is screaming that there are Democrats(bugs) on the floor. I just thought people would get a chuckle out of that.
