Literally not based on any existing law, just "I don't think the president should have to worry about whether things are legal"
Yeah, that goes back down to 0 if his lawyers get the judge to toss all the evidence from when he was president
He already started by asking Trump's lawyer to write an op-ed defending the immunity ruling
I was told that we can dance if we want to!
I see neither battle bread nor rats covered in ketchup
Only if he orders the CIA to do it, it's a personal act if he does it himself
Has it asked for any soap operas yet?
It's what they call themselves, that's it. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is also none of those things.
They are banking on having fat bank accounts
Not according to the way they define "official act". If it involves presidential power, it's an official act.
Ah yes, the classic play in which you acquire unchecked power, exercise it to get rid of all your political rivals, then somehow use it to restore democracy. Occurs once in an anime about giant robots and psychic powers, and never in history.
Man, if only there was a team at DOJ that had already been looking at Trump for years and had already come up with otherwise chargeable offenses
But where did they get the dilithium?
More like because Russia still has nukes.
Tools exist for a reason. I've done signal processing by hand, it sucks.
There are some fundamental concepts that span all of the systems. Investiture is the "mana" here but can show up as matter too, like the mists or shardblades. Investiture always wants to be used, and in a way that rewards people for satisfying the Intent of the shard it came from, like how radiants progress by personal growth and deepening the bond. When it's being used, it makes vibrations that can be picked up by Seekers and the like.
Magic systems in a particular area are affected by what's going on (or happened in the past) with the shards there. Like how the Dor works because 2 dead shards are corked up and trying to get out. The shards can also consciously affect the rules to an extent, like putting limiters on how much power the radiants get. There are a bunch of side stories set on worlds with no shards, there's still magic but it gets wacky because shards fought there once or something. There's also magic that Ado himself set up, that tends to be either subtle like Hoid's stories or stone singing, or bonkers megastructures, with no in between.
Most magic has a Connection to the world it came from, but people figure out how to bypass that and you get the Cosmere Space Age.
Connection is something you have already seen a lot of, in the form of Bondsmith shenanigans and to a lesser extent the wind runner lashings.
The Intent of the user also affects how the magic works, it's why you can use magic without realizing, or do really complex stuff without doing all the math yourself. It's usually bundled up with a Command, where you give a verbal order and your Intent kind of gives it flavor.
The fact that different metals do different things shows up a lot, but it's not 100% consistent what each metal does.
And then there's the 3 realms. You've seen how the first 2 work, and that whole scene at the end of RoW is them looking into the third. The third is also where souls are (including the bits that govern memories and what magic you can use), Investiture returns there after it's been used, and all of time and space are one there. There's no alternate timeliness or time travel, but you can see the branching possibilities for the future, or play "what if" games like burning electrum. When something is looking at all of that for you and handing you the TLDR, it's called Fortune.
Because that worked out so well in this exact case, Neville Chamberlain?
Do a search for "Jamie Loftus Grand Rapids"
Note: just a joke
Escaped felon Michael Burnham has been recaptured. No word on possible time travel.
Michael Charles Burham is accused of kidnapping a Warren County couple in May while on the run from authorities in New York, where he was a murder suspect.
