President Trump may ADJOURN both chambers of Congress over their Dereliction of Duty

It's a step in that direction and not the first time Trump has declared powers for himself that do not exist. In fact, it's the second time in week he's done so.

Yeah, sure. Think of yourself as a rebel seeking to destroy the Constitution. You're still going to have a fight on your hands and it won't be a bunch of LWers carrying flowers and wearing pink pussy hats. It will more closely resemble Texas Rangers taking down rampaging Comanches. Everyone I know supports the Constitution over a self-declared authoritarian.

I'm not a Democrat and have never voted Democrat. The fact you are compelled to lie is proof you are a scumbag who deserves to go down in the first volley of a civil war against those supporting Trump over the Constitution of the United States. I know many people who'd like to make that happen.

The free enterprise system is real...no myth involved.

Is it really 'free' with all the Government intervention?

Please start with the Tariff system, ... or Quota system if you like.

Wasn’t that the point, not to count votes postmarked after Election Day?

Those mail in ballots postmarked before Election Day should be counted...no expansion.

They would not have been under Wisconsin' law.

The deadline for getting a mailed ballot in Wisconsin was Friday, April 3, and the deadline to request absentee ballots was 5 p.m. that day.

By Wisconsin law, absentee ballots had to be postmarked by April 7 to be counted.

The DEMOCRATS sued to get the ballots postmarked up to and including the 13th counted, and the 7th agreed. The GOP appealed and the Supreme Court overturned the 7th. But their ruling nullified the April 3rd deadline.

That meant that the mailed ballots postmarked between April 3rd and Election day were counted. Previously they would not have been eligible.

The DEMOCRATS didn't get the extra 6 days they wanted, but they got 4 that they wouldn't have originally.

Savvy?

A record 1.1 million votes out of 1.5 million total votes in the Wisconsin elections were cast absentee.

Conservative Wisconsin supreme court justice Dan Kelly lost his race for a ten-year term to liberal challenger Jill Karofsky by eleven percentage points.

What does the liberal victory in Wisconsin mean going forward? It shrinks the conservative majority to 4–3, and it gives liberals a chance to win a majority in 2023.

Nothing is totally free, Jacky.

“Free enterprise is an economic system in which private business operates in competition and largely free of state control.”

Note the word, “largely,” Jacky.

Do you understand now?

Legion, do you mind if I eat breakfast before I respond?

My esposa sleeps til about noon everyday and I am hungry enough to eat the south end of a skunk going north.

Perhaps fried pork tenderloin, grits, and biscuits with gravy. We shall see.

Mas tarde.

LOL. Lies and insults are typical of the cowardly and stupid. Sad that you ran out of intellectual ammunition to discuss the topic, but expected. You often resort to name-calling when you have nothing intelligent to say just like your friends TD and Dog:

You might want to read your own post before you contradict yourself. Wisconsin law gave them the 4 days.

April 3rd was the deadline to request and have a ballot mailed to the voter. It was not the day the voter had to return it. The ballot was supposed to be received by 9PM on April 7. Under normal conditions someone could mail a ballot on the 6th with the expectation it would arrive on the 7th. It might even be possible to send it the morning of April 7 and still have it delivered that day. Certainly the Post Office has been able to do that in the past. Mailing to your precinct would be the same post office typically. Because the mail was being affected by the pandemic, the court attempted to allow for a disruption from what would be normal.

Wisconsin law says nothing about the postmark having to be by a certain date. The April 7 postmark was made up out of whole cloth by the Supreme Court when the conservative majority legislated from the bench.

What evidence is there that "the mail was being affected by the pandemic"?
