Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

It's the hand these lawyers have been dealt to try to make this argument fly. They are duty bound to provide the best representation they can for their client, and if somehow this completely bonkers argument wins the day, I think that's pretty much it for American democracy.
Or Biden has all this on standby just in case...
my favorite business teacher once told me almost no one has to do anything. we just need to accept the consequences of those actions... breathe/dont breathe.. steal/dont steal.
no one is holding a gun to these lawyers heads, are they? these arent 'public defenders' answering the call of their duty. these are private, douchebag lawyers who have chosen to be douchebags.... correct me if im wrong.
Same kind of thing was said by my Life Skills teacher in high school.
"The only thing you HAVE to do in life is die."
