A quick definition of corporate officers:

Corporate officers are the people who run a company's daily operations. They are chosen by the board of directors and usually include a president, vice president, treasurer, and secretary. Corporate officers have important responsibilities and must follow certain rules and laws. They are considered fiduciaries, which means they have three main duties: to be careful, loyal, and act in good faith.

A more thorough explanation:

Corporate officers are the people who manage a company's daily operations. They are chosen by the board of directors and their roles and number vary depending on state law and the company's articles of incorporation. Typically, there is a president (or chief executive officer), a vice president, a treasurer, and a secretary.

Corporate officers have many responsibilities related to the company, including being considered fiduciaries. This means they have three main duties: a duty of care, a duty of loyalty, and a duty of good faith. These duties are important because they help ensure that corporate officers act in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.

For example, in the case of Perry Ex Rel. Perry v. Frederick Inv. Corp., the court found that the corporate officers had breached their duty of loyalty by engaging in self-dealing. In Lloyd v. Moore, the court found that the corporate officers had breached their duty of care by failing to properly oversee the company's finances.

Overall, corporate officers play a crucial role in the success of a company and must act with integrity and in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.

Indeed. I need a count for how many exectuive orders he has signed and how many already have pending lawsuits.
