This is Stephen Miller’s (White House Deputy Chief) response to Karen Bass (Los Angeles Mayor).
The “states’ rights” crowd is not very supportive of states’ right, right now.
They never were. It was always cover to do awful shit like overturn Roe.
“States’ rights” has always been a bullshit lie. The confederacy did not honor states rights. The constitution explicitly instituted slavery as an institution an individual state could not abolish.
States’ rights to abuse its citizens, no states’ rights to protect any of them.
Little punk sure talks big when you can’t reach his little pencil neck. If federal law was as supreme as he plays up, him and his entire bunch would be behind bars right now
Easy to sound like a big man when you’re shouting from behind a few hundred marines.
But that’s sort of the crux of the issue. Miller has the Miller-tary at his beck and call while Mayor Bass will be lucky if half her LAPD don’t turn and open fire on her because they say they smelled weed. The folks with the guns seem absolutely gleeful in stomping their boots on the necks of LA residents.
Unfortunately yeah
It wouldn’t surprise me if Miller was one of those “Skinny guys [that] fight 'til they’re burger.”
I thought he might have been the source of Elmu’s black eye for a while.
Maybe. All I’ve seen him do though bitch andnmoan and threaten with is mouth
I would expect nothing less from a literal nazi.
Stop paying taxes. Let miller figure out how he’s gonna pay the military to keep up this supreme leader bullshit.
How?
Federal taxes don’t pass through California on the way to the feds.
Grima Wormtongue-ass mfer.
Steven Miller has got to be high on the list of most punchable faces
That’s Stephen “PeeWee Himmler” Miller to his friends.
Great Value Goebbels.
Face most replaceable with an ash tray.
He actually overshadows Aijit Pai by a planetary scale.
No, Stephen, it isn’t. Fuck off and die.
Wrong argument: he’s literally citing the supremacy clause.
A better argument would be that same constitution prohibits violation of limits on federal power, especially the bill of rights, enumerated powers, judicial review.
Let me be devil’s advocate here for a sec.
Yes it is. Unless a federal law breaks any federal law, international laws, treaties or human rights its latterly the highest level of law in a democratic country in this modern world.(And also, i agree with the major. If your community thrives or immigrants fills gaps in the community then fucking let them. Your community is better for it)
Federal law in USA is supposed to cover mostly commerce and interstate matters (and enforcement of constitutional rights) and what the states allow the federal government to manage. The federal gov is created as a contract between the states and a delegation of power from them.
So no. It’s kinda unusual in that way too, compared to other countries formed from multiple states.
Suppose and what is in its power is a different thing. Imo federal law, just like eu law, should be law that all members must implement but should only be made for the better of the population as a whole, no matter their origins, social status, living status or whatever. Humanity goes first (oh no! Socialism aaaahhhh!! /s). One could say that those laws are interstate matters btw :p
But has usa really been setup for federal level laws to mean… Nothing for the states and its people…?
It’s not doing well in the EU either.
The feds are breaking the law but my compatriots by and large have given them a pass.
Thank you for taking one for the team.
Fortunately, there already are quite a lot of laws limiting federal power, so maybe stop agreeing with the fascists as they rewrite reality by fiat
Maybe you should read what i said. I was playing devil’s advocate to make people think about the other side, thats what that means.
And i dont bloody agree with facists, seriously
That’s a weird way to spell “heil Trump”.
Small gubermint
“federal law is supreme.” Is some supervillain shit. Even Hitler would have cringed.
Miller is a known white supremacist and hardcore Nazi
I know. But even then, that is so over the top.
Miller is what caused the “Uncanny Valley” phenomenon in early humans. He’s what prowled in the dark that looked human but wasn’t. And for long enough to warrant an evolutionary response.
And he’s right, as long as the “resistance” continues doing nothing.
Every day these people aren’t afraid to leave their homes is a day Americans have failed.
Reminder, the states give the federal government its power. Hence the country’s name. To say otherwise is moronic and ultimately leads to civil war to settle these dumbass disagreements. The objective here for Q-tip Pencil-Dick McGee is to persuade the public that it’s the other way around to justify the administration’s criminal actions.
He’s still pissed off he got cucked by Elon with his ex-Wife.
Oh, the cretin whose wife is off banging Elon at spacex? Get your cuck on, Stevie.
Nobody is banging Skum, his wiener don’t work.
Does this stance fall under the GOP doctrine of small government or states rights? I’m a little lost.
