President has wide latitude in matters like this. Air strikes in this context are legal for him. He can even deploy troops as long as their deployment isn't longer then 60 days.

Because they can be slotted in to work existing machinery without retooling the entire plant.
Me, I guess?
Working long solo sessions of people leaving me the fuck alone tends to be correlated with me getting projects done.
I'm one of those older Trekkies who will complain about the aesthetic choices of the DSC sets.
My view is that there is a certain style with sci-fi shows of this nature that are part of their identity.
Large swings in design choices are very distracting to the point of being off putting to me unless there is good reason for it.
One thing I absolutely applaud Disney for is how they've managed to modernize but still keep the 70s aesthetics in their Star Wars shows. And I wish Trek had followed the same path.
Yes, truth is a defense.
The grey area this law attempts to exploit is that terms like 'racist' have no absolute definition. The term can be used as a response to anything from 'i don't like Indian food' to 'Hilters views on the aryan race were right'.
Take the Indian food example. If you were you say that, and I called you a racist for it, is that a matter of opinion on my behalf or a fact that is the basis of a defamation suit?
My mother is like this. She rents out her house for under half it's market value.
The tenants know they have it good though and do a lot of things that really should be my mother's responsibility like pay for or do minor repairs when they come up.
I have told my mom that the needs to raise rent at least some because she's not saving enough for big things that will come up like roof replacement, but she's terrified of her tenants leaving.
Yeah, but I'm talking about if this happened to me when I was a kid.
In the era of social media it's become common for someone's racism views posted on their personal social media to get forwarded to their professional relationships (employer, clients) leading to fallout, for example.
This is an attempt at stifling that sort of thing. When this first started the people on the receiving end complained about 'freedom of speech'.
They where told freedom of speech isn't freedom of consequences.
This is Floridas attempt at getting rid of the consequences by silencing free speech, ironically.
Good thing you aren't making policy.
The fed playing with interest rates certainly has and has had a direct and measurable impact on the current economic situation.
You can argue that the fed is independent from the president, but the fact is they generally do whatever the president suggests.
