  • “While I share the goal of protecting warehouse workers from dangerous and unfair working conditions, this bill was passed hastily at the end of the Lame Duck session without engagement with relevant state agencies or my office and presents both legal and operational issues that undermine its effect,” Pritzker wrote.

    He cited issues that could have been resolved after passage as poor excuses for his action including an “unclear…definition of who is covered,” no “due process” in its enforcement, and no specific list of civil damages and penalties.” The due process lacking now as a result of his veto is due process for workers who are exposed to danger. He plans a meeting that will include business representatives to decide where to go from here in drafting a new bill.

    If that’s all true, then it’s not really a veto as much as it is a “please cover these issues and get the right people in the loop to make sure we aren’t spending tons of money getting sued over this in court, rewrite this, THEN let’s get this passed”. It sounds like he intends to pass this with the issues worked out and specificity added.










  • In theory, it’s simple:

    • All states participating in the Constitution are what make the Constitution
    • Breaking he constitution breaks the Republic of the USA
    • Each individual state is left to figure out what they want to do if that contract is dissolved

    Trump is too weak to even conceive of doing such a thing, so he’s going to try and bend the rules as much as possible. What they want is for states to keep sending them tax money so they can keep going on their conquest.

    Once they break the Constitution pact, no money, and their Southern States immediately collapse into a pile of dust.

    The military outposts of the US which hold all the scary stuff are all in Dem-friendly states. They will assume those assets with the National Guard, and that’s it for DC.

    Trump WANTS to dissolve the Constitution, but his idiot handlers are right to stop him. They know they would be destroyed in IMMEDIATELY if they said it out loud.

    Instead, they are trying to play semantics and make things work for them. The judicitbranch isn’t going for it, so now they want to attack that.

    The problem being that if you try and change the Constitution, alter it, or otherwise redefine what it says, then you need 3/4 state participation. That will never happen. They have a small participation of votes, and they’re trying to get an constitutional amendment on bullshit.

    They can’t change the Constitution, they can’t stop the Judicial from doing the right thing, and they are too stupid and/or lazy to garner support for their dumb plans, so they’re just throwing spaghetti at the wall.
