And even if Linder did give Solomon the fentanyl that killed her, Kessel argued, “she made the conscious, voluntary decision” to take it.

But in using “coup” to describe Biden’s voluntary decision to leave the race, Trump appears to be trying to delegitimize Harris as a candidate and is potentially paving the way for election-related violence if he loses, said Sherry Zaks, an assistant professor of political science at USC who focuses on political violence.

Plaintiffs can’t “manufacture standing” through their own choices, he ruled: Our Watch’s “decision to place more focus and correspondingly commit more of its resources to ‘transgender issues’ ... was a voluntary decision — not a forced one.”

There has been no legislative change in the Anglican Church and offering blessings is a voluntary decision for clergy.
