That one's a little tickly.
You're undeniably right that the pardon power definitely makes it so that consequences of ignoring an injunction are nil, I personally wouldn't test it to too much extent. It's basically a constitutional crisis. If the Supreme Court considers an injunction legal, then it is, by definition, legal. If the President ignores this, he is, by definition, a criminal, and has violated his oath of office. Not saying it can't technically happen- but realistically- it doesn't happen.

There's also the problem with non-Federal courts, which the Executive has no pardon power over.

Ballistic missile. Not drone.

Actually a drone. Notable undetected by air defenses.

This page contains 2 references to 1 event, which funny enough is the event in link 2.

So, what you've got here is 1 drone strike. No casualties.
320 drones.
As for their strikes against US targets, we've got 0 successful hits out of 170 drones.
Combined, 1 hit, no casualties, for 490 drones.
So it's not quite 1:1000, but 1:490 is still just as laughable.

You have got to he the laziest fucking attempted google debunker ever. Or maybe the goal is to just waste my time demonstrating that you're a moron.

I'm sure to your scared little brain, that's exactly what's going on. Fortunately for you, FSM invented benzodiazepines.
The political situation in the US is pretty fucked at the moment, but court tolerance of the shooting of civilians is the lowest it has ever been.

Ya, that's separate though.

Apple's transition to x86 was not revolutionary. Apple Silicon is.
It quite literally changed the face of the laptop market.

Where previously, the more powerful the computer you had, the less portable it was, now you could have a laptop as powerful as the most powerful PC laptops, that lasted as long as the most battery-conservative netbooks.
Changes to Apple Silicon since, and throwing it in iPads- not revolutionary. Just iterative upgrades. But Apple Silicon laptops broke the laptop mold.

In fact, they have guns, and could theoretically take them out and threaten to shoot the salesmen as traitors to the country when they mention requiring repairs to be done by the vendor.

No, the military cannot take a US citizen out and threaten to shoot them as a traitor.
That would involve a lot of people going to jail.
