Can’t imagine what Frankenstein interpretation of the law would allow for that. If you believe in the unitary executive, then it should unitary.

That said, Gorsuch in 2019 gave his full throat endorsement of unitary executive in Gundy. Kavanaugh also joined the court at the time and while he didn’t take part Gundy, he later signaled his support of Gorsuch’s take.

Which begs the question… it’s been six years and they haven’t put their money where their mouth is. Maybe they’re ready now — but I agree with you, it’s felt a little like they might be worried about the consequences of what a unitary executive would mean.

Heading to SCOTUS? Gorsuch & Kavanaugh have been drooling for the right moment to declare independent agencies unconstitutional, let alone Thomas and Alito. That’s 4 votes right there.

Classic SLAPP suit meant to silence/intimidate

I might be in the minority here, and I have lost zero sleep over Kirk’s death, but I don’t really want or need Staples/Office Depot workers to decide what should and should not be considered propaganda, and therefore printable material.

Just print my shit.

I’ve never seen a picture of this guy, or heard a comment from him, when he doesn’t look/sound like a complete buffoon.

Excellent read

I assume the pager plan is pretty affordable too compared to cell phone data plans

First shot across the bow at taking guns away from Trump/MAGA dissenters and political opponents. They start with a group they don’t think will incite too many, particularly the generally pro-2A Americans. Next it’ll be gays, then anyone with any connection to antifa, then just Democrats in general.

Sorry for the delayed response. I tried the reset button and there wasn’t any blockage or weak connection to the port itself.

Turns out the computer had Lenovo premium service so a tech came out the next day and replaced the motherboard. Hopefully I won’t have another issue 😬

Thanks for the reply, sorry didn’t see until now.

Yes, what ended up happening was the computer was still under warranty and had Lenovo premium service (I didn’t pay anything extra for it, maybe it comes default with the X1 Carbon?), so a tech came out a day later and replaced the motherboard. It was actually super simple and I was back up and running in no time. I haven’t had any issues since.

Hmmm. Booted a live version of Ubuntu off a USB stick and got the same result: No mounting of a thumbdrive on USB-C but it worked on USB-A. This is the second time I’ve had something like this happen with Ubuntu. I bought an X1 Gen 9 and the computer just stopped recognizing the battery. I was within the return period so I just sent it back and got the Gen 12. Now, I’m having a USB-C issue.

I haven’t had any damage or physical issues that would explain a loss of the usb-c ports. Additionally, the ports still work to charge the computer, so they physically must be working (at least in some capacity). I’m stumped.

Edit: Now that I think about it, the only thing I can think of is that I recently bought a UGreen 65W power brick. It’s the same wattage as my official lenovo charger. I wonder if that is behind it.

Longer waiting time than to buy a gun. Smh.

The left has its voices, but I don’t know many left-leaning people who hang on every word of media personalities. It seems less cult-ish.
