As #MAGA world scrambled in November 2020 to concoct claims that the #PresidentialElection had been stolen, a business associate of #MikeLindell—the #MyPillow executive promoting outlandish conspiracy theories—circulated an especially extreme proposal: a draft #ExecutiveOrder that would have empowered armed supporters of #Trump [currently out on #bail ] to seize #VotingData and conduct investigations of supposed “ #ElectionTampering ”

Say what you will about our current president, he knows what he's doing.

President #JoeBiden signed an #ExecutiveOrder last week implementing sweeping changes to the #military justice system's handling of #SexualAssault cases. The reforms, which won bipartisan approval in Congress, remove serious criminal cases from victims' chain of command and instead place the cases under the authority of trained prosecutors.

I'm thrilled to hear that President Biden is taking steps to protect US investments in tech! #AmericanInnovation #USInvestments #BidenAdministration #ExecutiveOrder #ProtectingAmericanJobs http://www.techmeme.com/230728/p12#a230728p12

WH ofcls said that the #military branches had already begun hiring for the Offices of Special Trial Counsel, which they expected to be fully operational by the end of the year. But they conceded that it would take years to measure how the changes affected the culture surrounding the prosecution of #SexualAssault & other serious #crimes in the military.

Under the #ExecutiveOrder, the special trial counsel offices will have their authority expanded in 2025 to include cases of #SexualHarassment.

The law set up a 2yr process for the #DOD to create a cadre of special prosecutors….The Offices of Special Trial Counsel, …will be…experienced #military #prosecutors who will report to the #civilian leaders of the military’s branches.

The final step needed to change the Uniform Code of #MilitaryJustice under the #law was a presidential #ExecutiveOrder. Lawmakers directed Biden to issue it by 12/2023. …Biden did so Fri, 5 mos ahead of the deadline.…

@PinkNews Well, he could pull a #Circular3591 and issue an #ExecutiveOrder banning any Anti-#Trans Legislation...

@femme_mal exactly that's the problem.

I wish #Biden had the balls to jist #ExecutiveOrder away the #DebtCeiling cuz #SCOTUS would take months till they'd ever do any hearing...

I mean it's perfectly fine to trample on civil and human rights, so it's only fair to force-feed those christofacists whining for a "strong man" their own soup!

Can't happen soon enough! #illegals #citizenship #executiveorder #trump #seedchildren

@gcblasing espechally since #Biden could've just abolished the #DebtCeiling by #ExecutiveOrder and force #SCOTUS to abolish it.

But that would require having a spine in politricks.

@Astro_Jmona the whole #DebtCeiling bs must be abolished - period!

There's a reason no other nation has that crap!!!

#Biden could've done an #ExecutiveOrder and just abolished it, but he chose not to.

Of course, there are lots of other possibilities: Biden could issue an #ExecutiveOrder to the effect that the Debt Ceiling violates the #14thAmendment. Or that it violates the #ContractsClause. Or he could order the Treasury to start issuing #CouponFreeBonds. Or he could just #MintTheCoin:

Yes, each of these would end up in front of the (degraded, corrupt, illegitimate, partisan) Supreme Court, who would very likely strike them down.

@SteveBologna *nodds in agreement*

I think #Biden should just abolish the #DebtFeiling per #ExecutiveOrder as having it in spite of agreed-upon #budget that obligates his government to the spending isn't "#ExecutiveDysfunction" but systemic sabotage by design!

Just as every functional nation circumvents this issue...

In support of Biden #ExecutiveOrder on promoting competition and the Administration’s commitment to #transparency #HHS releasing #ownershipdata for all #MedicareCertified #hospice and #homehealthagencies. For the first time, anyone can now review detailed information on the #ownership of more than 6,000 hospices & 11,000 home health agencies certified to participate in the Medicare program on #CMS website.

@addie these #storm events will be more frequent. #Stormwater designs and how we #garden and reduce #impervious cover and the runoff from our roofs, walks, drives, sidewalks and streets are key. (Btw, I love your neck of the woods.) Who is responsible? Everyone, everywhere in the entire #watershed. Cheaper to intercept and prevent runoff close to the source #upstream than in cities or at the sink, #Findhornbay. This is the beauty of the #obama #executiveorder for the #chesapeakebay.
