#rubberStamp

In contrast to public discourse, there is no "believe the victims"-approach when it comes to defense in international law settings (eg #ICJ ). The "facts" of the #UN fact-finding commissions are currently being doubted. "The court can either 'rubberstamp it' or 'reject it', says Staker. #evidence

Now raise your hand if you think the text of the law will stop Trump from interpreting it however he pleases?
Or if you think this Congress won't rubberstamp any action he takes regardless?
Or if you think his Dept of War will register any objection?
Or if you think the Court won't run and hide too?
Invoking the Insurrection Act is not the same as declaring “martial law.”

Here’s a good explainer on the Insurrection Act:

He doesn't have to cancel the midterms. His gestapo fuck with enough swing districts and pull enough illegal bullshit that when it comes time to certify the counts, Congress just refuses and they make up some bullshit for SCOTUS to rubberstamp declaring the whole thing tainted.
the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

#artjournaljanuary2026 Today's prompt is "in the drawer". Everyone has that one drawer with miscellaneous junk. There is some stenciling on this page. The key is from a rubberstamp. The rococo women is from Etsy.

The one saving grace Rubberstamp Amodei has had in all of this is that he has yet to parrot out the bullshit that Jordan, Fine and a number of other Republicans do on a regular basis.
Rep. Jim Jordan: "The people in Minnesota are trying to distract from the 15 year fraud scams that were going on. That's exactly what's going on."

It is not just Trump. There's a system of Christian theocrats that want a rubberstamp in the Oval Office.

You already dismissed the courts as worthless (I do not think that is the case but sure), what other actions do you want them to take?

"Send in the Guard" - okay cool you now have a state explicitly using force to resist federal authority, congrats on your Insurrection Act rubberstamp
Even assuming free and fair midterms, and that this administration will abide by the results (they won't), the people of Minneapolis CANNOT WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER

How many more atrocities will it take? How many more people have to die and be maimed before state and local governments take action?

Judge Nonock Rubberstamp, presumably.

US trade rep: Renewal of deal with Mexico, Canada not a ‘rubberstamp’

@ufarooq 24 hours ago I would have said HELL no: the #trumpublican majority will rubberstamp whatever #agolfshitler orders. Today, I'm seeing THE FAINTEST GLIMMER of hope that they might back removal under those circumstances.

But that's not what I was talking about. I spent three decades […]

8:30 am Today St. Louis City Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Commission Board Meeting
www.stlouis-mo.gov/events/event...

😡 Closed Session is never a good sign

🧐 Why is TIF still a thing when Alders will usually enthusiastically rubberstamp corporate welfare for City's Central Corridor?

White leftists didn’t support the loser party that today refuses to anything but rubberstamp trump’s appointees, end a govt shutdown to give Trump Carte blanche, refuses to fight Trump even verbally, refuses to even speak ill of the Nazis occupying their community and killing their constituents,

Well that's just it tho. Republicans (especially the Murkowski/Collins variety) "offer concrete actions" then cave to Trump on everything.

I'm sure she's very concerned and but will eventually rubberstamp whoever Trump picks. Lather rinse repeat. Y'all keep falling for the okey-doke.

By the way, I didn't know about Musk (you did? BS), but it woudn't have made me use my vote to rubberstamp genocide, paid for by the US. Nothing saw Musk do makes me willing to "so what?" amputating the limbs of children without anesthesia when Democrats do it because maybe Trumip will too.

I hope Will Bunch is wrong and that we will not look back on 2025 as the sane year of Trump's second term.

We need the other two branches of government to stand up, ante other party - the GOP - to do it's job and not rubberstamp a dictator.

How Pathetic!

CNN, Do Better!
@cnn.com

Didn’t Donald fire & replace Nat’l Capital Planning Commission members to rig the vote in favor of his boondoggle?

No one has confidence in this process. But CNN’s bolstering the impending rubberstamp claiming DJT’s solving a longstanding problem?
