During a Tuesday hearing at the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, the DOJ urged a three-judge panel to issue an emergency stay of a lower court order and allow the Trump administration’s deployment of the California National Guard to continue in Los Angeles — going so far as to argue a president’s federalization of militia can’t be second-guessed by the courts, even if the chief executive mobilized forces from all 50 states and Washington, D.C., simultaneously.

    I’m beginning to think this isn’t just you building strawmans, maybe you’re unable to understand what I’m saying.

    Condescension and gaslighting. Should really make a bingo card for this. You’re pretending that not buying what you’re saying is not understanding it.

      Are you able to answer my questions, or are you just going to avoid them and dance around topics while throwing insults? I’ve asked them twice now but you seem unwilling to explain what you said. Almost like you know it’s ridiculous, unfounded, and petty.

      They’re claims you made, I just want to understand them better.

      Condescension and gaslighting.

      Oh, the irony.

          On my terms, by asking you to explain what you said? I’m such a troll with 2 simple questions, asking what you meant by your statement. We both know why you really won’t answer.

          I don’t think there was ever a time you weren’t sealioning this whole conversation lol. Nothing you said has felt genuine. You’ve just tried to cover it up with a Gish Gallop and now refuse to participate because you’re being focused on 2 questions and the absurd claims you made. We both know it, can we stop the act.
