Wait, so can the vice president yell fire in a crowded theater now or nah? What if they do it, kill the president, and then pardon themselves? That could be an official act

Related, since I keep seeing it come up: Newsom can’t be Kamala’s VP, the two executives can’t come from the same state. It’s a good rule, really.

I also don’t think Whitmer or Newsom would step in for a risky ass swap that’d tear apart the party when they’re so clearly positioned for 2028 But 🤷 stranger things I’m willing to bet money Biden still leads the ticket. The campaign funds couldn’t even be released other than to Kamala

Snopes says that is a misconception but honestly I'm still pretty confused after reading it. www.snopes.com/fact-check/p...

Aahhhh interesting From my read they could do it but they wouldn’t be able to get any electoral votes from california Wiser minds may disagree

That might be the outcome. It's so overcomplicated. :/

The key thing is they'd have to cover up their criming by *checks notes* talking to the Attorney General of the United States in an official capacity about the crime. *checks notes again* Wait, that can't be right--

The guy who “yelled fire in a crowded theater”* was literally making a campaign speech for president at the time lol *criticized the draft during wwi

This is why the president should have to wear a silly uniform with a special hat, and red satin pajamas and smoking jacket the rest of the time so we can know official or Private acts.

I think we should label all politicians with their endorsing corporate brands like nascar drivers

I really hate to nitpick but it is in fact not illegal to yell fire in a crowded theater
Avatar
Boohoo joke ruined 😃 Nitpick welcome. I actually did not know that

A SCOTUS justice used it as an example of potentially illegal speech but it’s never been more than a metaphor. Like, if there actually is a fire in the theater it’s probably a good thing to point out.
