Good thing we won't need so many of those when supply chains dry up from tariffs!

And that’s basically it!
So…. Let’s get this straight… he is signing orders to make things happen that have been happening for almost a century now??
What’s next, an executive order to make air breathable??
I'm assuming it's just a way to sneak literacy tests into something. You can speak english, but can you speak it well enough to pass a subjective test administered by someone who hates you for being hispanic?
Not in Trump's America. Making breathability a requirement could limit some broligarch's freedom to do business.
I have a CDL, Class A with X endorsement.
This changes nothing. CDL manuals, exams, and paperwork are all in English. What I think Trump thinks he's doing is banning Mexicans from driving trucks in the US, but this is controlled by a reciprocity agreement between the US and Mexico. Surprise, Mexicans don't have to take American exams for a CDL when they can have a license issued by the Mexican government.
Basically all this is is white supremacist virtue signaling.
Nah you're still thinking about it within the the UN/long peace legal framework. They can just do a decree that says no mexicans, and their extrajudidical thugs will take the signal to harass and murder truck drivers.
B-but that's illegal ☝️🤓
Are you going to stop them?
I would love to see the US go a month without Mexican truck drivers. The UK pulled the same stunt with Polish truck drivers. People were rejoicing at empty shelves and overflowing garbage bins.
Executive orders are not laws. He can direct how the law in enforced, but he can't just unilaterally define new laws
Many laws are written to give the executive branch leeway in defining the details of how a law is to be implemented. This makes sense, assuming everyone is acting in good faith; technologies, science, standards, and best practices all evolve over time.
Laws are usually written in a way to ensure Congressional oversight, to prevent the executive either intentionally or accidentally from subverting their will. But with a treasonous President and a complicit Congress, here we are.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So if you happen to have a thicc Indian accent you need a second guy with you to translate English to English. Gotcha
Fuck you shoresey
Fuck you, T00l_shed! Your mom wants me so bad she said she’d do anything so I got her walking around with my phone playing my Pokémon Go.
Give your balls a tug, tit-fucker
Tell your mom to stop faking jellyfish stings, I’m not going to pee on her
Shut up shorsey
yet another thing that has no legal standing and only exists to make the idiots think trump is accomplishing something
That’ll help the shortage of drivers for sure 🙄
I keep on thinking of the mad tv skit with the woman who says she can't understand people with accents.
