qualified veto

Read a random definition: quasi-criminal (proceeding)

A quick definition of qualified veto:

Qualified Veto: A qualified veto is a type of veto where a person or group has the power to reject a decision, but only under certain conditions or circumstances. This means that they cannot simply say "no" to a decision, but must provide a specific reason or justification for their rejection. It is similar to a regular veto, but with additional requirements for its use.

A more thorough explanation:

A qualified veto is a type of veto where the person with veto power can only reject a decision under certain conditions. This means that the veto power is limited and cannot be used arbitrarily.

For example, in the United States, the President has a qualified veto power over legislation passed by Congress. The President can veto a bill, but Congress can override the veto with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Another example of a qualified veto is in the United Nations Security Council. Any of the five permanent members (China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) can veto a resolution, but only if they believe it is a threat to international peace and security.

These examples illustrate how a qualified veto works by showing that the veto power is not absolute and can only be used under certain circumstances. This helps to prevent abuse of power and ensures that decisions are made through a fair and democratic process.

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.
