Caveat: you must also say your religion is evangelical christianity
The message here to students at OU is that you can get away with anything if you just claim your religious freedom is being violated.
OU has put the professor here on administrative leave:

The reason many in the press were happy to see Biden’s comms team go is because it routinely ghosted us, dropped us from email chains, ignored requests, acted elitist, spoke down to some and indifferent to others. I have covered every POTUS since Reagan. No admin had a more incompetent comms staff

Alfred is the most important character in any Batman adaptation.
rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

The problem right now is that this poll should be asking "Do you support the CURRENT ADMINISTRATION" taking this action. Because whoooo boy do I NOT!

In law school I did and internship at the USAO-EDVA Norfolk. We had two cases involving Somali pirates who attack two US Navy vessels. It...did not go well for them.
But they were picked up after their boats sank, brought to the U.S. and put on trial. Not butchered in the ocean.

The problem with a Constitutional Convention is that Republican controlled states would dominate. Look a the state legislatures. Republicans are in control of significantly more than Democrats.

It exists to the same extent "Advice of Counsel" CAN be a defense to certain crimes - but those aren't things like MURDER where the criminal nature of the conduct is obvious.
It's a defense in situations where someone would be reasonable in relying on their lawyer's advice to take certain actions.

Wild to see Whelan say this, but to be clear the OLC's immunity powers are fake anyway. The "golden shield" idea was made up to justify rampant criminality in the GWBush years, then adopted by Holder to excuse Obama's inaction. It's not in the Constitution, statute, or precedent. It's not the law.
Does Pete Hegseth have a "golden shield" against prosecution in the form of a DOJ OLC opinion? Ed Whelan thinks not.

And unlike some of the finer questions of “was the president’s inherent Art 2 powers in play”, shouldn’t offing people who are hors de combat be clearly known to be an illegal order all the way down the line to the lowest Seaman?

Alternatively - let's look at the history of juries when it comes to things like say, black men being accused of raping white women.
The jury system is in no way perfect but I think a better solution would be a jury of experts instead of just...random folks.

Having served on a jury in a rape trial, I'd have preferred a judge to decide guilt/innocence than a bunch of people who were sadly incapable of applying any logic to the clear evidence they were presented with and prepared, given their blatant sexism, to see the defence counsel destroy the victim.
