So the US is at the stage where whatever this orange jerkoff farts out of his decrepit dementia-riddled mind - becomes law? And aligned states will listen to this pap, non-aligned states will Ignore? Cause ruling by EOs like isn’t a thing
States can lawfully tell Trump where to stick his executive disorders.
Executive orders don’t apply to states. States are not federal employees
sTaTeS rIgHts *
*does not apply to Democrats or people trying to protect human rights within a state if it conflicts with right wing authoritarians’ vision for how everyone else should live.
Republicans have always been hypocrites.
Good thing executive orders are not laws.
What about States rights?
In the trash, along with free speech absolutism and freedom of and from religion, concern about deficits, and so on…the cons have always lied about their so-called concerns and principles.
Someday Trump will publicly burn the constitution and there will be thunderous applause
Not how this works.
It is now
Literally has zero authority to enforce this so no, it’s still not
Let’s see how it turns out. I think it’ll be interesting to watch and I understand now why they’re trying to get people to bet on new events because at this point it’s the only bright spot in this dystopian hellscape.
CNN: This is fine
Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t this effectively toothless? Like executive orders only effect things directly under federal and more specifically executive purview meaning even a city government could pass a regulation on AI in their area and it’d have more legal weight than an executive order. Or are they abusing unrelated powers to declare that no one can regulate AI?
Like I’m pretty sure the supremacy clause doesn’t apply to executive orders.
Yes, you are correct. A federal law would preempt a state law, usually. But this is not a federal law, so it’s a load of kindling.
More specifically, they’re just directives to federal employees. It’s the equivalent of your boss telling you how to do your job.
Telecommunication is controlled by the Federal government.
And suddenly, State Republicans are fine with having the Federal government take away their rights.
Well no, because this order has zero legal weight. They are liars, though, for pretending it does.
Conservatives have always been fine with federal government taking away other states rights.
The civil war started because the South didn’t want the federal government to force them to stop using slaves but 100% okay with the federal government forcing Northern states to return slaves back to the South.
The cons whine about things like gender fluidity, but they’ve always been quite morally fluid, let’s say…
Trump still doesn’t understand how anything works? Right… never did.
Id imagine this may get thrown out in court
He’s trying to rule by decree, but most of his orders are for things he has no authority to do.
They should be printed on soft paper so at least someone could wipe their ass with them.
Ya even with our conservative court they even can’t ignore the power states have in enforcing their own laws outside of what the constitution specifically says the federal controls. I guess that assumes if any of them even care about the constitution anymore.
State rights much?
This is almost certainly because this very thin economy, or at least the stock market, is only barely staying afloat on the back of the AI bubble. This move could create room for them to superficially extend the bubble as long as possible and maximize their profits.
Let me get this straight. AI now has more rights than we do?
Since AI is being created within private tyrannies we call “corporations”, which also have more rights than we do, it’s only natural.
Pretty sure it always did
Remember all the movies that said we would bully them? They hadn’t factored in the “economy”.
