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.

It was the cult of Kali that got things started by murdering oil executives.

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

I'm about half way through The Saint of Bright Doors by Vajra Chandrasekera. It's an interesting blend of fantasy and sci-fi and a decent read so far.

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.

It's the latest in a long line of attempts to weaken citizen ballot initiatives in the state. It's almost like the GOP minority doesn't want the majority of citizens having a say in the legislative process. Especially when legislators repeatedly fail to meet the policy needs of citizens in Arizona.

I've been playing Palia. It's a chill MMO focused on resource gathering, NPC quests, and crafting.

 

Prices presented in the show are presented without question. At no point does anyone question their absurdity.
