I said it should not be presented. Just like Mueller and at least 2 other SCs appointed under the same law did not Cool story though Eric Carle

there is no republican establishment other than trumpism

I'm not wrong and you calling me wrong is evidence that I'm not wrong

I dont need to protect my daughter from this forum but whatever works for you

so tonight is when Tay and Travis Pfizer install Biden for 4 more years after the Chefs win the rigged super bowl right

It's interesting that the same law that compelled Mueller to not lodge personal attacks against the person he was investigating and not charging, *did* compel personal attacks against the person this jabroni was investigating and not charging The fact is, if it were a level playing field, the conversation starts and ends at the same DOJ memo regarding indicting a sitting president that Mueller cited.

Esweig putting in the work defending personal attacks on an innocent person in a legal document, cheers on the noble cause

I never said anything about whether the report should be public so that part of your story sucked I was talking about what was included in the content of the report but go off with whatever makes your story crappier

I don't care if I sound like an old curmudgeon but social media is horrible and is a plague on society.

I think people also don't take into account the perniciousness and the pervasiveness of the internet and particularly social media. I have a friend who is a principal at a high school and the stories he tells me are horrifying. These kids just spin up new websites with new urls where they keep terrorizing other kids in the school, and part of his teams job is just following that around on the internet playing whack-a-mole. You can take your kid off social media (maybe?) and that's really hard in and of itself, but that doesn't make all of the social media go away and not impact their lives.

One thing that I did find pretty ridiculous in that hearing though was the "discussion" about how if they allow Colorado to keep Trump off the ballot, the projected outcome is that "the presidency will be decided by a handful of states" I wonder if the justices are genuinely unaware of "the electoral college" and "status quo" or if they were being purposefully intellectually dishonest.

I'm a very techy person and I'd say I'm pretty worried about how to wrangle/control all of the apps/content that my daughter can access. I think it's very reasonable argument that it shouldn't be parents' responsibility to parry a tsunami created by tech companies with immunity pursuing massive profit. If we still argue it should be parents' responsibility, I think it's very reasonable to determine how realistic that really is for an average parent.

I really enjoyed being able to listen to this oral argument, even though I'm fully aware the justices already all have their minds made up. The talking heads were saying they thought Trump's team would concentrate on this office/officer technicality but really Trump's defense had what felt to me like a much stronger argument. I thought the argument he was making (paraphrasing) where he said if you take him off the ballot, you're essentially blocking congress's power to "remove" the designation which is also stated in the amendment, was a very strong argument. So for instance, it's objectively determinable whether TayTay will be 35 by the time she's president. However it is not objectively determinable whether Congress would remove the restriction. It's very similar to the same question we were discussing elsewhere where the Constitution says the criteria to be president but it doesn't' say anything about criteria to run for president. I thought Trump's attorney did a good job, maybe he even convinced me. I still think he engaged in insurrection and the constitution says you can't do that and be president, but I also agree with the reasoning presented.

Biden was totally exonerated

sorry your expectation is wrong. If they don't charge they're supposed to STFU. He didn't charge. He shoulda STFU

so the media is in a fluster because... a Republican said bad stuff about Biden? What a f'ing joke

I'm sick and tired of special rights for Republicans. The SCOTUS needs to bounce this bleeper off every ballot forever. Of course instead they'll probably just find a way to make him president today.

the trump admin's doctor feelgood I'm highly entertained over here with the exception of no Ukraine funding

All for a total stunt that's going nowhere even if it passed the house. It's almost as if governing isn't the point......................

yeah, I want that funding but I thought it was bull**** that Ukraine Aid was a concession to Dems from Republicans in this deal. So something they support anyways was a concession

I'm glad the immigration bill didn't pass. I hope Biden makes MAGA own the border now.

Absolute ****show 🤣

Mighty Poplar

count me as someone who's totally wrapped up in this Tracy Chapman/Luke Combs thing. That performance and the crowd reaction is pretty damn overwhelming for me and is honestly the thing I love about music. I put it right up there with some of the greatest rock performances I've ever seen. All of the people singing back to them kills me. I've never listened to any of Luke Combs's music but have seen him on College Gameday and read other news articles about him and he seems like an awesomely legit dude. I'm probably going to give some of his songs listen. I'm not at all a country music person (but learning country music guitar now) and like I said about it being what I love about music, it could be a new road for me.

I definitely need a debate between these two to know where they each stand and how I should vote
