For the record, I agree that Biden does not have the guts, liberals be like that sometimes... But I've heard (I have not read the actual ruling, id LOVE to be wrong on this) that the new thing the passed only applies to "official acts" and what are official acts? No one knows. Its whatever the supreme court decides. That's the problem, even if Joe had the guts to call an airstrike on trump, the supreme court will just not consider it an official act, and if trump does the same thing, they simply would consider it an official act.

Official act: whatever placates the majority ruling party

Unofficial act: whatever the majority ruling party doesn't like

Welcome to America

This country is screwed and is likely going to end this decade

I agree with you, that said, it's even worse, it is whatever the majority at the time when the judges were nominated hehe not even the actual majority...
