Why the fuck doesn't Biden just use his absolute presidential immunity for official acts to bypass Congress and allocate the funds? Then, once the election is over have anyone who says anything about stolen elections or massive voter fraud and the corrupt members of the Supreme Court arrested and shipped off to Guantanamo Bay. Official presidential acts!
He doesn't need that. The constitution already gives the president the permission to summon Congress for emergencies.
“Happy 2am FEMA discussion!”
And he can send the US Marshals to bring them in. They can be handcuffed and dragged into the Chamber. I believe Kevin Spacey's character in House of Cards did this. Wonder which ones will get into a shootout with Marshals telling them the President needs them to come in and do their job?
I doubt any are dumb enough to mess with Marshalls.
Not even Empty G?
"But guess what? And by the way... Dew it Jack!"
Moral high ground. "They go low, we go high".
The biggest issue with liberals are them taking their opponents in good faith, while their opponents exploit this fact.
Except on the republican side it goes like "We go low, you go high", and the republicans are not the only ones using it. In fact, the nazis used it to get into power, and so is Putin, Orbán, etc.
Unfortunate reality is if you want to stay the good side, you have to keep to the high ground and follow the rules.
Or you can be like an anti-hero. Use guns, swear a lot, and most importantly: remember that your opponents will exploit the good faith of others.
Anti heros don't function all too well in reality most of the time
