Which justices do you think get gone?

I don’t think it’s the corrupt ones. He can do whatever, he can pardon. And now when he says do “x” it Is a Constitutional order.

Even if it’s not.

They want to hurt us. It’s the common denominator for many.

The other stuff is noise. Porn stars, confidential papers, fraud, none of that matters. Because it doesn’t matter.

It’s the backlash. We weather it or we don’t.

Something will. The DNC may become illegal. Or something.

Remember, being a liberal, according to the plan, is un-American.

Hard to say. He didn’t look like a great candidate until he was Prez.

I’m not saying let’s throw caution to the wind or let’s make a huge mess.

Only that it can has happened and worked. It does not mean it will ever again.

I come to this from a couple angles.

I have type 2 and have been prescribed ozempic. My numbers are suddenly good and I can feel satiated. Now when people hear that you have type 2 they get an image. I’ve never been that, but type 2 found me anyhow. Weight-loss is nice, but not as important to me.

My wife ended up on Wegovy. She didn’t eat much, walked regularly, went to regular swimming sessions… Did all those things you’re supposed to do. Not only did she not lose, she slowly gained. She did all that because it was the right thing to do.

Wegovy hit the market and she qualified in part and mainly because nothing else worked. She was already not eating much. And the insurance paid because she’d been doing Noom, exercise, etc.

So… She and I get the same active ingredient and both benefit. It makes you feel sick for a day or two a week. Certain foods become revolting.

It does what we need. But the stereotypes that people have around these meds aren’t entirely accurate.

Lincoln was the third choice.

Based on what I’ve seen, I expect it will continue until well past collapse too.

Gotta marry her tho. Them’s the rules.

No worries. Have absolutely done the same in the past.

And I’ll take the moment to salute your reliance on fact and citation. Wish more people did the same.

Cheers

No.

I didn’t.

I’m not the one being slow. SCOTUS had 8 people while McConnell held up Garland.

Officially SCOTUS was and is nine people. But if the wheels of government turn slow enough, SCOTUS continues to do its job with whoever has made it through the process.

Officially 9, it functioned with 8. No one is credibly saying all those decisions must be thrown out or that SCOTUS cannot function during a shortage.

If that shortage was 4, people would be vocal. But legally, it would still be functional.

I not talking about changing the official number. I never did in this thread until you did.

It ran at 8 for quite a while. No one’s legitimately saying those decisions don’t count.

The official number can be whatever. Congress doesn’t get to nominate. And SCOTUS would keep deciding.

If there were 5 justices, they’d still be functional. As proven in the past, there’s no requirement for 9.

Science. Threat analysis. Entertainment at our silly ways.

If they have abundant resources and energy, sending probes wouldn’t be a challenge.

I’d enjoy Katie Porter. Dunno if she’s ready for something like the presidency, but I’m ready for a president like her.

Replace the mature trees at any cost. If those don’t “take” do it again.

And again. And again. Until the soil accepts the fully mature trees.

Onve they’ve lost millions, I hope they’ll serve as a proper cautionary tale.

Threat of impeachment. Dems will vote for impeachment. Republicans will, too, if the president is a Democrat.

Obama broke Occupy. Biden and Clinton are vocal about not supporting the anti-genocide protests (except to say the protestor have specific rights).

There are no political leaders sympathetic to protests here. Only those who could maybe be cowed if we really fought. If that was likely, the FBI would infiltrate and agitators would create reasons for enforcement.

We’re talking Floyd levels of riot that would remind people of Jan 6th and leave people feeling justified. MLKs proymtests were NOT popular at the time… We’re looking for something and someone like that. Closest we’ve got is Shawn Fain.

My riot, for now, is my vote and my tepid support of formerly-Dark Brandon. He’s done a lot. More than most. But Garland was a shit pick. And now we’re here with trials delayed all over the place because Garland dithered.

We* should be free to own as many guns as we want.

*You know.
