      The Trump/Elon administration will file a poop emoji response and request expedited review from the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court will rubber stamp it 6-3 with Thomas filing a concurring opinion that’s a poop emoji.

        Don’t you mean the court will respond with 💩 ✅ meaning they side with Trump?

        We’ll be in the era of emoji rulings.

      See Worcester v. Georgia essentially two states attempted to secede and the federal government stepped in (after first defying the court) to save the union. Does not bode well for the union at this point in history.
