I mean he’s kinda right, but he just doesn’t realize he’s on the side threatening America.

No, but if he the president does have absolute immunity Biden could just have seal team 6 kill Trump and some of the justices.

Not that he would, but imagined the surprised Pikachu face on the GOP if Biden called their bullshit.

No, no - this is the forever chemicals in your blood. The plastic in your balls will be a whole other thing!

I’m not sure a new justice could be appointed this close to the election given Joe Manchin’s previous statements. It also wouldn’t change the balance of power.

Correct, that is the full process. Even if the Senate is unlikely to convict, that doesn’t mean the house shouldn’t Impeach. It elevates the issue, brings attention to it, can dig up more information, and at least shows that some measure of accountability is being sought.

I think with more state level work, Dems could start flipping more Senate seats. AZ and Georgia are recent examples. But it needs to be a 50 state strategy, and too often people just see a red state and throw up their hands as if there’s no way that can change.

Maybe a better way to say it is obvious enough for people not paying close attention to have no doubt about the corruption, and as a result Court reform becomes a mainstream issue that moderate Dems get behind.

One of the reasons this election is so critical is the Supreme Court. If Trump wins, Alito and Thomas likely step down and two new, younger, likely even more conservatives get appointed, leaving Trump with 5 appointees who will fuck us for decades.

We have to keep that from happening. We need Biden to hold the fort if nothing else. Hopefully, it will become quite evident that this court is corrupt AF, and there will be real momentum for reforms and/or impeachment of Alito and/or Thomas. We’ll need Dem senators to actually start pushing for this and probably start pushing for increasing the Senate with DC, Puerto Rico, and Samoa statehood.

But people gotta suck it up and support Biden, while at the same time getting involved at the state level.

We need more Democrats in the Senate. To get that we need better representation in States or more senators. Folks have to start working at the local and state level to start affecting change, because in the current system it’s really hard to make that happen from the top down.

We should totally be going for a judicial reform, both of the district, federal circuit, and supreme Court levels. Republicans have what they have today because they’ve had a 40 to 50-year strategy led by the Federalist society to put conservative judges and positions of power up and down the ladder. And Democrats are about 30 years behind.

AFIK, all the subsides for EVa in the US already require them to be made and produced domestically.

I don’t think our industrialized food and unwalkable cities are mutually exclusive when it comes to obesity.

Given that abortion and legal weed will both be on the ballot in Florida this cycle, turnout could a lot different this time around.

You can get a watch repair kit on Amazon that will have the tools to remove the pins between the links.

I’ve also had luck going to a department store with a jewelery counter and seeing if they can make adjustments. Especially if it’s a brand of watch they carry, you can always say someone got it as a gift for you from that chain of stores.

There was an interview with E Jean Carroll and her attorney and they claimed Trump had to pay it out pocket for the first defamation fine because no bond company would work with him. That was only for like $5 million.

There actually is a pretty unprecedented number of migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers entering and trying to enter the country which has put a strain on border communities over the past couple of years.

She’s not going to beat him in the primary, however there’s a not insignificant chance that Trump flames out (disqualification or conviction) and she’ll be the only candidate left with some delegates and she’ll default her way into the nomination.

The wild thing is that it was two very conservative Federalist lawyers who wrote the initial article (based on originalism) putting out the theory that Trump should be disqualified.

Further, the amendment specifically lays out Congress’s role: they can, with 2/3rds vote, remove the imposed disqualification disability.

Ezra Klein had a great podcast on this awhile back.

The lack of in-person community in modern American life has a profound and far reaching impact that I think many people fail to appreciate.

I would add a progressively higher tax rate for each property beyond 2-3.

Go for a walk, longer is better but even 20 minutes will help.
