So if I am reading right...since no Governor went along with his bs rules from his stupid phone call he is just going Caesar on the bit and doing it himself despite the law?

It worked well for Caesar, right?

I am absolutely shocked. I think you could make an argument this is as bad as 9/11.

The Episcopal bishop of DC – who oversees the DC church Trump just stopped at – tells the @washingtonpost she is "outraged" and that neither she nor the rector was asked or told… “that they would be clearing with tear gas so they could use one of our churches as a prop.." 1/3

..holding a bible, one that declares that God is love and when everything he has said and done is to enflame violence. I am beyond.We need moral leadership and he’s done everything to divide us and has just used one of the most sacred symbols of the Judeo-Christian tradition."2/3

"We so disassociate ourselves from the messages of this president. We hold the teachings of our sacred texts to be so so grounding to our lives and everything we do and it is about love of neighbor and sacrificial love and justice." @Mebudde Bishop Mariann Budde 3/3

So now the original ME is saying homicide??

https://thehill.com/homenews/news/50...CY2_MNRC0ZROCg

I did think there was a qualifier in the original charge documents that said something like "preliminary results seem to indicate" or something of the sort. Made it seem as though all results had not come back. Makes sense because blood work is needed to determine if the heart suffered trauma. I think the county ME is saying it wasn't necessarily asphyxiation, but it was still killing somebody.

That is how I understood it as well though I wasnt sure exactly how to articulate it so nice work

NEW from DOD: "At this time, the president has not enacted the Insurrection Act. I refer you to the White House for more."

Re: Cops 9: You Are What Now?

Bishop of Washington Episcopal Diocese is on CNN...she is not happy with Trump (similar to her comments I posted early)

She is distancing herself like he has COVID.

edit: Hey she worked in Minneapolis for 18 years. No wonder she is so smart

She was the rector of St. John's Episcopal Church in MPLS for 18 years. Talk about bad timing for Trump. You hate to see it.

I was confused by all the mentions of pre existing conditions.

Thanks

Yeah, but it now looks like the county ME agrees with AOC. Killing a person with pre existing conditions is still killing a person.

White nationalist group poses as Antifa group on Twitter.

I wonder what Flaggy would be saying right now. So many of his conspiratorial thoughts and rants have come to fruition under Trump.

Re: Cops 9: You Are What Now?

It may have already been explained below, and I thought uno might get into it. There is a concept in tort law called the eggshell skull doctrine. It simply states that a victim's unusual frailty is not a defense to the seriousness of injury. So if I hit a person in the head who has an eggshell skull, and it causes harm an ordinary person would not experience, it doesn't matter. I am liable for that damage (assuming the other elements are satisfied).

Same concept in criminal law holds that perpetrators take their victims like they find them. A preexisting heart condition could be one of those things--just like a thin skull.
