Quick point of clarification: He IS risen, not has risen. While this may sound odd at first, we must keep in mind that this wasn't simply an action that happened in the past. It's a current state of being. He IS risen, then, now, and forever. Thanks for posting, 7nick9!
From wiki (I know, I know)...
"More generally, Jesus nut (or Jesus pin) is used to refer to any component that is a single point of failure and whose breakdown would result in catastrophic consequences, the suggestion being that in such case the only thing left to do would be to pray to Jesus, or that the component's importance could be likened to the importance of Jesus to Christianity."
u/Toblathe gives a very good answer about the intent of this District Judge vs. other judges, but I don't think your question was answered.
District Courts are below Circuit Courts, which are below the Supreme Court. What authority does a District Court Judge have to decide whether or not the Executive Branch is "permitted" to pursue a coirse of action?
There are over 670 District Judges in the US. Any one of them could rule in favor of or against the Executive Branch and suddenly that's binding for the entire country?
If anyone can explain this to me (I'm sure there's probably something I'm not understanding), I would greatly appreciate your efforts!
Ultra-smart leftwing logic:
I'm going to send digital death threats to a man who has the resources and skills to figure out exactly who I am, and who is also bff's with the nation's top law enforcement officials.
PLEASE make an example out of someone.
I will not dispute that the organ harvesting industry has some shady shit going on, but I have to disagree with Dr. Byrne's statement that "brain death" does not exist. Firat, the semantics: "brain death" isn't always an accurate description of what is occuring. If you want to argue about terminology and definitions, we can do that separately. I would like to focus on two procedures (Dr. Byrne is correct that these are not "tests"), the apnea challenge, and the brain perfusion scan.
First, the apnea challenge. A patient on a ventilator, who shows no electrical activity on the EEG (electroencephalogam) and who also is unresponsive to other brain activity tests (like the nystagmus test, which Dr. Byrne referred to as the eye and ear test) is a candidate for the apnea challenge. During the apnea challenge, the goal is to stimulate the patient's central chemoreceptors. The human body has two internal breathing triggers: the central chemoteceptors in the brain stem, activated by the presence of too much CO2 in the blood ("I need to get rid of this metabolic waste product by expelling it out of my lungs"), and peripheral chemoreceptors in the carotid artery and aorta, activated by the absence of O2 in the blood ("I need to get more oxygen into my body by breathing in").
The patient's sedation is lowered to prevent interference with breathing, and oxygen is delivered through the endotracheal tube while the ventilator rate is set to 0 breaths per minute for 10 minutes. The body's metaboloc processes continue, using the high-flow oxygen that is coming into the tube (enough O2 reaches the distal airways by way of Fick's law of gas diffusion) and these processes produce CO2 as waste. As CO2 builds up in the blood, the central chemoreceptors should be triggered, meaning that the body recognizes that it needs to breath. In a scenario where the brain does not trigger a breath, perhaps the term "brain inactivity" would be a more appropriate term, but the person would not survive on their won without mechanical ventilation, and is als umresponsive with no voluntary muscular activity. I'd also like to comment that while Dr. Byrne's comment about the apnea challenge causing a toxicity in the brain is true in theory (rising CO2 levels decrease pH making the blood more acidic, which is bad for the brain), the normal metabolic processes involved during the time limit of the test (max 10 minutes) cannot cause a damaging change in pH.
Second procedure, is one that I don't think Dr. Byrne mentioned (yes, I watched the 16 minute version of the video), called the brain perfusion scan. This is a computed tomography scan of the blood flow through the brain. If this test shows no blood flow, the brain is in fact dead. Just like any other organ or body part, the brain requires blood flow to bring oxygen and remove metabolic waste (including CO2). Without that blood flow, the brain tissues will become necrotic and eventually die.
Again, I do not dispute then FACT that there is shady shit going on in hospitals, with medical personnel pushing for organ harvesting in cases where the patient could have or would have survived. And to anyone in this thread who has gone through an experience like that I am truly sorry. This post is simply disagreeing with (and providing rationale against) Dr Byrne's assertion that "brain death" does not exist.
As Constantine faced the Battle of Milvian Bridge he received a vision from God to fight under the banner of Christ (painting the symbol of the Chi Rho on the sheilds of his soldiers). His victory began the process of the unification of the Roman Empire as well as the proliferation of Christianity within its borders.
I believe that Trump began this journey as a non-believer, and has since aligned himself under the leadership of our Creator... for the purpose of restoring strength and liberty to our Nation, restoring order and justice to our world, and restoring the hearts and minds of humanity, all for the Glory of God.
I agree that there may not be a reason to remove her SS detail, but I'm curious as to why she received protection in the first place? Sure, maybe while her father was pResident, but why are the American tax payers paying for SS coverage for the adult family members of former Presidents? Current Presidents... sure, protect everyone including the family dog. Former Presidents... protect them. Just them. If the family wants protection, they xan move in with dad (or mom, if we elect a female president).
(This is commentary on the idea of SS protection, no shade intended to the comment above or to OP)
It's not that people won't be able to HANDLE it, it's that they won't BELIEVE it. Overton Window. If we "fix the problem" it comes back. If we expose the problem in such a way that EVERYONE gets lissed about it, we can get lasting change.
My favorite recurring thought about all this "destroyed info" is when the prosecutor says "your Honor, Exhibit A shows that the defendant is a treasonous piece of shit who has earned the death penalty," and the defense is like "um, how did the prosecution get those files? We deleted them!?"
POTUS cannot declare war and is already CIC.
