Trump Hit With Order Banning Threats and Intimidation

In a major lawsuit to block Trump from Colorado's 2024 presidential ballot, a judge issued a protective order prohibiting threats, intimidation

I'm not sure what being banned from the ballot means though. He can stand in states where he's not been banned? Seems strange if he can't stand in some states and can in others.

Even if is banned ballot paper write ins allowable and counted

 

[two sheds]

Wouldn't it mean that his name didn't appear on the ballot though?

 

[pbsmooth]

it will mean we're one step closer to that US civil war.

Yes but the US has a 'write in' system whereby you can add any name you like and vote for them instead. Not sure how they decide which Joan Smith you intended to vote in, mind you.

Can only think of one person who'd want Donald Trump Jnr.


Fingers crossed for Joan

UAW Files Labor Complaint Against Sen. Tim Scott for Saying “You Strike, You’re Fired.”

“Telling workers they’ll be fired for striking is violating federal labor law, and that’s not something becoming of a senator.”

theintercept.com

AFTER INVOKING THE legacy of Ronald Reagan to suggest that striking United Auto Workers members should be fired for demanding higher wages, Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., may soon find himself before the National Labor Relations Board. On Thursday, Shawn Fain, the president of UAW, filed a complaint claiming that Scott’s utterance violated federal labor law. Under the National Labor Relations Act, anyone can file a charge against an employer, even if they do not work for that employer.

The complaint accuses Scott of violating the section of the NLRA that lays out employees rights to participate in labor actions: “Within the past six months, the employer has interfered with, restrained, or coerced employees in the exercise of the rights guaranteed in Section 7 of the Act. On Monday September 18, 2023 Tim Scott threatened employees with adverse consequences if they engage in protected, concerted activity by publicly responding to a question about striking workers as follows: ‘You strike, you’re fired.’”

Trump Goes Full Deranged, Suggests Charging People He Doesn’t Like With Treason

This is not a joke. Donald Trump is stating very plainly what he would do if reelected.

newrepublic.com

Donald Trump went over the edge over the weekend and began calling for his detractors to be prosecuted or even put to death.
“They are almost all dishonest and corrupt, but Comcast, with its one-side and vicious coverage by NBC NEWS, and in particular MSNBC, often and correctly referred to as MSDNC (Democrat National Committee!), should be investigated for its ‘Country Threatening Treason,’” he wrote on Truth Social Sunday night.
“I say up front, openly, and proudly, that when I WIN the Presidency of the United States … the LameStream Media will be thoroughly scrutinized for their knowingly dishonest and corrupt coverage of people, things, and events,” he said. “They are a true threat to Democracy and are, in fact, THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE! The Fake News Media should pay a big price for what they have done to our once great Country!”

Trump’s threat to the news media was actually his second attempt to menace detractors this past weekend alone. On Friday, he slammed Mark Milley, the outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, suggesting that perhaps he also committed treason.
“This guy turned out to be a Woke train wreck who, if the Fake News reporting is correct, was actually dealing with China to give them a heads up on the thinking of the President of the United States,” Trump said on Truth Social. “This is an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been DEATH!”

His dictator-like tendencies coming to the fore again.

 

[Ax^]

hmm if lands again the white house he'll declared a national emergency to try to stop any further elections . he going full despot in his re election campaign

still not sure if he knows it might be a losing effort so embrace the crazies hats this time.

does he know most want an armed conflict with the us government and that's the fire he is stoking

 

[Nylock]

Someone needs to spike his diet coke with novichok. Or orchestrate a "hunting accident". I'm happy either way...

Makes sense that he would try to stop elections, he only gets two terms.

 

[rubbershoes]

He doesn't give a shit about anything other than being seen as a winner

 

[newme]

Well he's now been pictured holding a gun, which he is specifically not allowed to do. So thats something that happened.

I love how he applies his own kind of science to things

You can literally hear the moment that his walnut brain makes up the next link as it trundles along.

This is the person that half of the US, the biggest polluter on the planet, want to lead them during a climate crisis. And he doesn’t know the difference between a wind turbine and a windmill. It’s not funny really.

 

[two sheds]

Any odds on him blaming increased wind speeds on turbines blowing the air around?

 

[chandlerp]

The gun has his stupid fucking face on it

39 year old Tarrio to the judge: "Please be lenient, don't take my 40's from me."


Judge (Trump appointed, no less): "22 years."

Couldn't snitch his way out of that one

These fucking court cases need to hurry up

The guy is a complete headcase. I avoid hearing him actually speak as much as possible but whenever you hear his rambles you can only come to the conclusion that he really is completely mental.
Perhaps half the people who end up voting for him never actually hear him speak? He just stands for various vague ideas that people will get behind because they're against the alternative - he's anti-woke, 'old school values', the little man, against big tech etc. Another reason he doesn't do the TV debates.

China overtook the US as the biggest polluter of CO2 a few years ago. The US is now the second biggest polluter.

Quatar is the biggest polluter by per capita emissions.

CO2 emitted by energy production in the US has been dropping. It's now down 17% from its peak:

CO₂ emissions in the U.S. have reduced by more than 17 percent when compared to 2005 levels to less than five GtCO₂ per year.

A number of states are now at or above 50% carbon neutral. In those states where it's still really high, are all red states:

Quatar is the biggest polluter by per capita emissions.

If, however, you look at it from a per capita point of view, which is far more sensible when you think about it, the US produces 15.74 tonnes per person, whilst China only produces 7.72.

 

[magneze]

Although, part of the issue is that a lot of China's pollution will come from making stuff for other countries.

"I don't need to consume less, look at China ffs" - it's all linked.

Not aiming this comment at you Yuwipi Woman, just a general comment.

He'll be moaning that those giant fans must use a lot of electricity to produce all that wind an'all.
