when you are over 40…
I don’t care that this is not funny. This is serious. Every American needs to know this. Tell everybody you know. Call your senators. Post it on every platform you can. Get the word out. This bill MUST! NOT! PASS!
“No court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or temporary restraining order if no security was given when the injunction or order was issued …”
Translated: no federal court may enforce a contempt citation.
Its only purpose is to weaken the power of the federal courts.
As Erwin Chemerinsky, UC Berkeley School of Law dean and distinguished professor of law, notes, this provision would eliminate any restraint on Trump.
“Without the contempt power, judicial orders are meaningless and can be ignored. There is no way to understand this except as a way to keep the Trump administration from being restrained when it violates the Constitution or otherwise breaks the law …
“This would be a stunning restriction on the power of the federal courts. The Supreme Court has long recognized that the contempt power is integral to the authority of the federal courts. Without the ability to enforce judicial orders, they are rendered mere advisory opinions which parties are free to disregard.”
In other words, with this single measure, Trump will have crowned himself king.
This provision inside the bill that neuters the federal courts is even worse. It would remove the last remaining constraint on Trump, and thereby effectively end American democracy.
I checked the news and did not find anything like that… According to Wikipedia it is just a bill associcated with changing of spendings on differerent things. And it already passed on May 22nd…
But seriously this has nothing to do with anything funny and the kind of panic this posts causes is simply wrong…
That’s completely wrong!
It only passed the House. It’s now in the Senate. They haven’t voted on it, yet.
And you don’t live here. Your country is not being taken over by a wannabe king/dictator. If it were happening in Germany, you’d be speaking out the other side of your mouth, yelling from the rooftops at the top of your lungs!!
The very first line said it wasn’t funny.
You should stay out of what you don’t understand and you clearly do not understand this big ugly bill.
Well the Americans got what they voted for… If that bill was really that bad our news would have already covered it…
I think someone like that 
would quickly get back to where he came from 
i know, this is not the right topic for that
