    PenguinSix is an apolitical guy in a political town who likes to walk a lot. He has hiked over 17,000 miles (27,000kms) in the past six years and is still walking today. He is an American expat who spent the last decade in Hong Kong with his family and is now back in Washington DC, continuing his daily ritual of taking very long hikes around the city catching the sights and sounds of the city while live streaming to share with others. History, culture, life as an expat (with reverse culture shock), and the pitiful Chinese food in Washington DC are regular topics of discussion.

    I remember when they killed Martin Luther King I don’t know I was six or seven, but I remember going to Washington to visit my aunt and uncle. My uncle was in the Air Force and they were stationed there and Washington and their house was burned down and then from there they moved to Maryland, they still live there in Maryland but a different part. Now my uncle passed away. My aunt still alive and my cousin worked for the Pentagon..

He said the few Rulings on their Docket were triggering more or less. Is it the Presidential Immunity of all the Past Presidents but not Trump? Or is it about a sitting Presidents son receiving Presidential Immunity? 🤷‍♀️ Let’s hear from the Supreme Court. And why would the President not be in the Capital instead of Camp David studying for his Debate with President Trump? Fascinating!

      @@cdamstar1 You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. There is no court case going on regarding a "a sitting Presidents son receiving Presidential Immunity," and Presidential Immunity would only apply to the President and not their family. And all the past President didn't have Presidential Immunity, and it is only Trump who is claiming that it exists in order to protect himself from being held legally to account for the crimes he actually committed as President.
      The President can run the country just fine from Camp David as it is literally designed to have the country run from there. It even has an underground nuclear bunker.
