A basic and intuitive understanding of the law is that punishments should not be retroactive upon a policy change.
This is even worse. There is no formal policy change, they are simply penalizing couples for following common practice - explicitly allowed by Congress - for decades.

Trump: "People that shouldn't be in our country, and that includes Somalians and plenty of others. We don't want those people. Many of them are no good. All they do is go around killing each other, then they come into our country and tell us how to run our country. We don't want them."

Even by a Strict Definition, Elon Musk Is a Fascist

This is a Bill Simmons game, but you’re stranded on a desert island. You can only have one actor’s filmography. You get it all, including cameos. But just the one performer.

There is absolutely no bottom. They will kill and murder and steal and break the law and laugh at every rule and institution until they are stopped. They think they are all-powerful and all conventional rules of morality and legality do not apply to them.

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.
