A perfect example of how calcified our government has become. It’s not “nimble” enough to solve anything.
The East Wing is destroyed, a new foundation has been poured, tower cranes are assembling load-bearing walls, and now a federal court says this is not acceptable.
The federal court humiliates itself. It’s the same for all of our other problems. It’s deeply horrifying to realize we won’t make it in time for any of the problems we need government to solve.
Yeah I do feel like the courts really need reforms that allow them to attend to legal processes in a timely way.
Not this specific situation precisely but people are supposed to have a right to a speedy trial- those do not exist. The dysfunction of the courts plays a huge role in the way that the legal process itself can be the punishment even if someone did nothing wrong
Its called an emergency stay.
Judges can issue them basically within a day. I am sure lawyers asked for one and no judge elected to issue one.
Tear it all out, and restore it back to its original plan, no matter how much it costs, and charge it to Trump. He such a good deal maker, he can get “private donations” to reimburse him.
Also, I cannot wait to see all that tacky gold shit he probably superglued to the walls to be torn the fuck down.
I hope he’s alive and cognitively aware to witness it, too. :)
After seeing the abuse of power from Trump in his first term, 2/3 of Americans either voted for Trump again or just didn’t vote at all.
You’re complaining about “the government”, but this is actually the government people voted for. The government isn’t calcified, people voted for a government that would fuck things up. The government is now fucking things up.
“Efficient as government work” - an idiom as old as time.
So is “The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine”.
