The Insurrection Act is a dangerous tool in the hands of any president. It will take bipartisan action to fix it.

In a shocking turn of events, the Supreme Court has granted Donald Trump immunity, allowing him to act with impunity. This decision raises serious concerns about the rule of law and the integrity of our democracy. The Supreme Court's ruling could potentially allow a President to commit crimes without facing legal consequences. This is a dangerous precedent that undermines the very foundations of our justice system. The dissenting opinions of Justices Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson highlight the gravity of this situation. They argue that the President is no longer bound by the law, and that this will have dire consequences for our democratic self-governance. This ruling has far-reaching implications for the future of our democracy. It raises questions about the role of the Supreme Court in upholding the rule of law and protecting the rights of citizens. What are your thoughts on this ruling? Do you believe that the Supreme Court has overstepped its bounds? How do you think this will impact the future of our democracy?

Supreme Court to Explore Limits of Government Influence Over Internet and Free Speech The Supreme Court is set to deliberate on a critical case that probes the boundaries of government influence on the internet, fundamentally addressing the delineation between lawful government advocacy and unconstitutional coercion. This inquiry resurfaces in a related case concerning the National Rifle Association (NRA) versus Maria Vullo, a former New York State official, who is accused of overstepping First Amendment rights by advising financial institutions to reassess their affiliations with the NRA following the 2018 Parkland school shooting. The upcoming decision seeks to clarify the constitutional parameters distinguishing persuasion from coercion, a distinction that holds significant implications across the political and social spectrum. The case has united unlikely allies, highlighting its significance in the ongoing debate over free speech, with the American Civil Liberties Union representing the NRA in its quest for a resolution that respects the First Amendment's protections. #VeritasMedia #SupremeCourtDecisions#FirstAmendmentRights#GovernmentVsInternet#NRAvVullo#FreeSpeechDebate#PersuasionVsCoercion#DigitalFreedom#ACLUDefendsNRA #PoliticalBlacklisting#PublicPolicyAdvocacy#ConstitutionalLaw#GovernmentRegulation#OnlineCensorship#LegalBoundaries#FreedomOfExpression#SocialMediaLaw#GunRightsAdvocacy#FinancialBlacklist#CrossingTheAisle#HyperPolarizedPolitics

CONFLICT ASSESSMENT: TRUMP'S FIRST JUSTICE TRIAL- FULL IMMUNITY https://lnkd.in/g9hbsFPr Justice in most functional democracies without #KangarooCourts is not anchored on public opinion. However, seventy percent of respondents disagree with Trump's claim of presidential immunity from prosecution for alleged non-executive crimes directed at protecting democracy or national security during office. If the Supreme Court grants full immunity, Biden will remove him from office, retire, and save #democracy. The great challenge for the USA is to separate the justice system from any political partisan liaison. For example, judges should not be elected by vote. Still, by appointment on merit, justice officers should not be linked to any political party publically, and they should never endorse any politician, including police bodies. Their votes should always be private and liable to conflict of interest. They will avoid the circus of today.

The recent events in the United States have raised concerns about the future of democracy not only in the country but across all Western nations. A video circulating online suggests that the security services and law enforcement agencies have either lost their ability to recognise the importance of democracy or have been subverted by their leadership. This raises important questions about the country's future and the role of its leaders in safeguarding democracy. We must remain vigilant and work towards ensuring that the democratic values we hold so dear are protected. Freedom of speech, the ability to challenge and criticise, and holding those in positions of power accountable are crucial in upholding democracy. Access to justice and natural justice must not be tainted or withheld due to discriminatory or prejudicial influences and beliefs. Failure to do so can lead to oppression and miscarriages of justice. Let us work together to safeguard democracy and protect our fundamental rights.

Sarah Sherman is the Founder & CEO of We're Here For You Canada - we advocate for survivors, empower youth & provide free immediate supports to victims in emergency rooms after sexual, intimate partner & family violence.
This is incredible work! Colette Martin has made an impact and this was passed by legislators but is still not fully through. Sadly, there will likely be no sitting legislature until after the current upcoming provincial election. If this matters to you, think about where your vote lies. "Claire's Law is a vital tool for victims, enabling them to obtain a background check on their ex-partner or perpetrator.

https://lnkd.in/eFAD5neb 🌟 A Milestone for Safety and Hope 🌟 December 16, 2022, marked one of the most beautiful days of my life as Bill 17, also known as Claire's Law, was passed unanimously by the legislature. I was honored with a standing ovation, a moment that I will cherish forever. Claire's Law is a vital tool for victims, enabling them to obtain a background check on their ex-partner or perpetrator. I believe this bill is a significant step forward in saving lives and providing a much-needed preventative measure. However, we are still waiting, somewhat impatiently, for its full implementation. Thank you to everyone who supported this crucial legislation. Let's continue to push for its realization and work together to protect and save lives. 💪💖 #publicsafety #lawenforcement #justiccanada #bill17 #clareslaw #governmentofnewbrumswick #governmentofcanada Lyne Chantal Boudreau, Ph.D. Dr. Jennifer Russell, BA, BSc, MD, CCFP Arlene Dunn Véda B.

Eager, able and willing to work. Frustrated to see how many in business disregard my eagerness because they think I’m too old. Trust me, I still have lots to offer and I’m just asking for a legitimate chance to prove it.
If you are not frightened to your core by today’s Supreme Court ruling that puts the president of the United States above the rule of law, please try and understand how dangerous this may be to our freedom and future. Please read the dissenting opinions and try and understand the peril that our nation faces.
