The Marshall Service is the enforcement arm. The question is, would they refuse to do their duty?

 

Yes, the US Marshall Service is part of the Department of Justice.

And, although they operate under the direction of the Attorney General, the following brings up an interesting point:

The Marshals Service serves as the enforcement and security arm of the U.S. federal judiciary

If the court issues an order and the attorney general subsequently refuses to enforce that order, couldn't the court then issue an order placing the attorney general under arrest?

Okay, so he revoked the collective bargaining rights. He didn't revoke the ability to go out on strike, though. It just won't be an organized strike.

Weren't strikes the compromise to the other option, namely dragging the owners out of the factory and beating them in the streets? Maybe they just want to go back to the original system.

Okay, I used to work for a supplement distributor, and I'm going to explain to you how the supplement industry works. You'll then be able to see how they intend to pull this kind of BS.

Determine whether you will sell to weight loss, skin care, or masculine fragility. Now go find yourself a Third World country, the usual is Brazil because it has a considerable population and a fairly large medical establishment. Find a study that was done that addresses in some fashion what you're trying to sell. The study will probably be of a small population and have a slight effect on a small percentage of that population.

Now you can go ahead and market your product and claim that a medical study says that some people will see an effect. Let your marketing people go ahead and spin that however they want, you've got your evidence.

Now do you see how the brainworm's CDC is going to go ahead and push whatever point of view he wants?

This is like sovereign citizens saying they don't consent to being arrested. Did anybody hear us asking for permission?

Considering trump's habit of tearing up agreements even he made, what is to stop Zelensky from doing so once russia is out?

Considering trump's efforts to put political officers in charge of all official communications, any such "news" must be considered suspect.

Isn't it cute when your little one puts on his pouty face, stomps his foot, and says, "No more broccoli"?
