No. It’s not legal. Congress may have passed a law or several laws saying it’s legal but those laws contradict the constitution so are invalid. Only a constitutional amendment can override a constitutional edict. There has been no such amendment.

Same goes for tariffs.

Lady Lindsey has never seen a war it didn’t love to sell arms for. You should have seen it creaming all over itself on Meet the Press the day after the attacks started.

Of course he cares for the suckers and losers.

Most mammalian carnivores have a sort of mix. They have the piercing canines, then their molars act like scissors to slice off hunks of meat. Herbivore and human molars are more for crushing.

It’s called noodling. The fisherman doesn’t hold worms in his hand. He gets in the river, reaches up under the undercut bank to feel if there is a catfish (or turtle) there. If there is, he just grabs it by the jaw and yanks it out (if catfish). Turtles require a bit more finesse. If you feel smooth shell, don’t grab. That’s the front and it will grab you back with a mouth made of basically scissor blades. It the shell is jagged, that’s the back end. Feel for a tail and yank it out.

By dating her best friend, having argument with said best friend, SO was the intermediary. Realized SO was the better of the of the 2 anyway so took her on a date along with 4 other of her friends. By end of evening, SO and I were in love.

Isn’t it the Christians who keep saying man and dinosaurs coexisted?

July

Didn’t smell like cat pee when I visited and there were many cats. A couple were on that bed. Some were on shelves in the gift store. Basically, they’re everywhere.

So we’re just spreading trash in the environment and feeling good about it because it can be reused by other animals?

Sometimes it just works. Small octopuses love to take up residence in a beer bottle. It might not be the prettiest thing to find on the ocean bottom but it’s often home to one of the most intelligent invertebrates.

And, after all, that glass is just congealed sand.

Yeah. You should move past that.

Easy access to firearms.

This is a BS statement. Firearms have ALWAYS been easy to get in the U.S. It used be even easier than it is now. Yet it’s NOW that we have this increase in the suicide rate. Maybe try looking at reasons for suicide such as the the divisions in this country rather than just blaming a tool.

Men are more likely to use a gun for suicide, as they have always been, for the same reason they go to a store with something in mind to buy, buy that something then walk out. Men focus on the goal so they obviously go for the most effective method of achieving the goal.

Wildcats (tigers, lions, bobcats, etc) will take down a prey animal. We think they just eat the muscle. In reality, they often go for the stomach of the herbivore they just brought down to get the vegetable matter there. Then they eat other internal organs (liver, spleen, kidneys) so they aren’t just eating muscle.

For our pets, well, we all know they don’t eat the same thing every day. Firstly, the the thing they do eat every day, pet food, has various nutrients included so it’s a balanced meal for them. Secondly, we give them treats which may or may not be beneficial.

As for we humans wanting variety, it’s exactly that. We want but don’t need as much variety as we get. We enjoy the different flavors even if the items containing those flavors aren’t exactly good for us (twinkies, 8 year scotch, etc). Our pets and wild carnivores don’t get the opportunity to try these other flavors (well, our pets get some opportunity but not to the extent we have granted ourselves).

But that’s the point. Congress CANNOT cede authority without amending the constitution. Any ‘law’ they make doing so is invalid because it violates the constitution. A LAW CANNOT OVERRIDE THE CONSTITUTION.

Secondary reply: I don’t know If I’d call bald eagles smart. When I drive by a road kill that has vultures and a bald eagle feasting at it, the vultures fly away from the road while the stupid eagle flies right in front of my car. I’ve nearly had them smash into my windshield several times. It is now my standard reaction to slow down if I see a bald eagle eating road kill. I don’t worry about the vultures because they know what to do.

BTW, bald eagles were nearly driven extinct by DDT. We quit using that so bald eagles are now numerous enough that I have to brake to keep from hitting while they eat road kill despite the lead poisoning.

Not denying the condor thing. Still didn’t answer the vulture thing. Yes, I know condors are a type of vulture but so are black vultures and turkey vultures which are more common than ever.

Bug zappers don’t focus on mosquitos. They focus on bugs attracted to light. Mosquitos aren’t particularly attracted to light. They are attracted to body heat and, most particularly, carbon dioxide. Our exhalations draw them near. Then the heat from the veins close to the skin’s surface provide the fine tuned target. So, to attract mosquitos, emit carbon dioxide which then draws near to a body temperature heat source, which then zaps or drowns them. This drowning is accomplished by having the mosquitos attracted to a suction which then blows them into water with a bit of soap in it.

I think it’s kind of Legal?

Here’s the thing. The constitution says CONGRESS levies taxes, not the president. Any law CONGRESS passes must be IN PURSUANCE OF THE CONSTITUTION. Making a law that abrogates any part the constitution is not IN PURSUANCE OF THE CONSTITUTION. The only way to do that is TO AMEND the constitution.

So, no. It’s not kind of legal.

and any judge worth the air it would take make such a statement should FUCKING KNOW THAT!

Harks back to the Viet Nam war. We had to destroy the village to save the village. I believe this is the one where the Pulitzer prize winning photo of the naked little girl running with massive burns from napalm happened.

Not sure if you’re American or not but here’s a question for you. These bald eagles are allegedly dying from lead poisoning from eating creatures shot by lead bullets/pellets. This must mean they are scavenging. Yes, I know bald eagles do that a lot but they also kill their own prey. So why aren’t vultures dying of this lead poisoning. Vultures only scavenge so it should happen much more often.

Here’s another thought. 80% of eagles brought into a clinic may be dying of lead poisoning but that 80% is part of a small number overall. Notice they never say how many eagles are brought in.

Here’s another thought for you: When someone says such and such is the fastest growing demographic for such and such a thing, it could just mean that there were very few such incidences. 2 such incidences occurred when there used to be just one. WOW! Hundred percent increase? Such incidences have DOUBLED!
