Injured people, even combatants, in the water after vessel has been sunk are not a threat justifying “self defense” claim. Almost this exact same scenario led to the execution of German U Boat captain Heinz-Wilhelm Eck.

Trial courts & appeals courts, with the notable exceptions of the 5th Circuit & Aileen Cannon, see respecting precedent & case law as a bedrock part of their mission.
Supr Court on the other hand is the only entity empowered to create new law out of thin air. They aren’t supposed to but they do.

Next stop SCOTUS.
My guess, they will uphold 120 day limit but strike down the JUDGES selecting the successor. Maybe allow judges to reject or accept the candidate put forward by POTUS.

If Trump tries to extend this to LAWS, he needs to be taught that a bill presented to the President becomes law after 10 days, signature or no signature, unless it is vetoed by the President.
So a “phony” Autopen signature is simply equivalent to no
signature.

Machado can take but can’t hold power unless as a US puppet protected by US military.
Force Maduro out and he and his supporters will attack & subvert the replacement Govt. Easy to disrupt with chaos. See Taliban & Kabul Govt, see also Iraq govt & Shiites. Trump somehow thinks he has solved this?

Trying to hide behind the “risk” to the armed forces personnel striking small boats, with at worst small arms, using drones & standoff weapons. So far, the US military is at absolutely zero risk from the strikes on these boats

If you aren’t naturalized, in the military, or a Federal employee, when does anyone take a binding oath to America?
How about Musk violating his oath about honesty on his application for naturalization about never having violated terms of his visa (by earning money by working)?

The ultimate measure of NATO success was in DETERRING Russian aggression.
With Russia’s land army depleted & exposed as ineffective, without threats of Russia using nuclear weapons, NATO even without US participation could lay siege to Moscow in a couple of months (while Ukraine takes back Crimea)

This is something that worried me. So many Trump mega-sycophants, including some in uniform, know their only salvation is to keep Trump in power, with enough gratitude toward them, to grant pardons
Trump won’t even have to ask for corrupt acts to his benefit, they know they absolutely must deliver

Use of Autopen raises a sliver of doubt about Biden’s intent to issue specific pardons
But sliver of doubt is BS. Must show a ton of credible evidence contrary to intent

Anyone indicted by DOJ despite a pardon for the associated offense will have the controversy resolved by a judge. DOJ can write War & Peace ten times over but a judge will decide and likely demand DOJ show, with substantial credible evidence, the pardon was issued in contradiction of Biden’s intent

The mere fact that the pardons exist in written form should force the parties wishing to invalidate them to show by clear and convincing evidence the pardons were actually issued CONTRARY to Biden’s intent between time of issuance & Biden leaving office.
About zero chance of proving that.

The Constitution says nothing about the form of pardons or that they be in writing or signed at all
So with Biden’s pardons being announced publicly & near certainty he heard/read news accounts & didn’t contradict them, challenges to pardons would need to PROVE they were CONTRARY to Biden’s intent

This is an overt act of war, equivalent to a blockade.
China could do the exact same thing to Taiwan, crippling them without firing a shot
maybe force planes to divert & land at China’s relatively nearby Fuzhou Changle Intnl, about 150 miles away

What will be US explanation for shooting down a civilian airliner?
Just a reminder, back in 1983 Russia shot down civilian flight KAL 007 IN RUSSIAN AIRSPACE. US intelligence intercepts of Russia radio communication concluded pilot who shot the plane down mistook the 747 for a US RC-135 spy plane
