Well, this is huge!
In the Supreme Court's monumental decision in former President Trump's immunity case, one justice questioned whether Special Counsel Jack Smith – at the helm of Trump's unprecedented prosecution – was constitutionally appointed.

Regarding the homeless, l’m generally in favor of government being used as a function to reduce desperation in the populace.
In what ways?
In what ways?
I’m not sure l can super succinctly answer, but basically support programs to help people identify their cause of homelessness, and help them help themselves to be homeful again. I’m realizing homeful isn’t a word. Why isn’t there an opposite word to homeless?
There’s obviously various causes of homelessness. Addiction, divorce/break ups, guy with a high paying job loses his job, old person outlives their reverse mortgage, etc. And there are programs in place to address these things, some of which aren’t even government programs. AA is a fiercely independent organization and does some of the best work in addiction.
If homelessness is a growing concern, then it’s fair to say the demand is outweighing the supply for these programs right now. This is why we have the government, to address growing concerns like that.

I don’t know who this is, but you’ll appreciate it instantly reminded me of this.
Easily one of Zappa’s biggest barnburners. It shreds. You gotta wait over a minute to hear any glockenspiel at all. -

I'm a huge Zappa fan... Studied his music for years... I saw the quote on twitter so I made a meme.. I caught the zappa quote immediately...

This graph more or less tells the story. I'm not implying that a mental hospital in the 1950s was a Ritz-Carlton, but maybe we need to think about bringing them back and updating them to be more humane.

Some thoughts on the Trump immunity case.
1 - It sets a new legal precedent for presidential immunity that has never existed before. It could certainly be abused, and the dissenting judges are absolutely correct on that mark.
2 - It's unfortunately a necessary response to the DC establishment's waging of lawfare against a wrecking ball like Trump with frivolous, retarded cases that would never be brought up against anyone else. The good part about this ruling is that it prevents any conniving GOP appointed judges from going after Biden with frivolous retarded cases after he is out of office. The tit-for-tat shit needs to stop. -

The President can still be prosecuted for crimes.
2. Along the lines of what you said, there has never been a case like this against any former President and there has never been a cause to define immunity.
The immunity clause is something I always thought existed anyways. It's sad to see at least one justice turn around and fear monger the extremes though.

I think a big start to helping homelessness, is what Vapor said, mental help/institutions but also combating drugs/addictions.
I don't think either is any small feat.
