Chaos is just the first part of their plan. The whole purpose is for generating lawsuits that make their way to the Supreme Court.

The weirdo Republican's entire plan is to have the SC hand the dictatorship to Trump, irrespective of the Electoral results. Harris could win Texas and be over 300 Electoral votes and the SC will still hand it to Trump.

Do you really think those 6 idiots handed the office of the President immunity? HAH! They handed TRUMP immunity. They absolutely will NOT see a Democrat with that immunity in the Presidency after the election.

It has to stay out of the Supreme Court's claws. At this point, I really don't see how it WON'T end up at the SC.

If the Legislature and Presidency go all Democrat, the very FIRST thing they have to do, is deal with that insane Supreme Court.

Impeach Thomas, Alito and every idiot that fat Cheeto installed on the court. Probably will get Thomas, but not sure about the other 4, but they need a reality check. Thomas needs to go to be tried for his ethic violations afterward. He needs to revisit his life choices in a quiet cell. Also, scrap that stupid fucking RV of his. Seriously, why the fuck do those things exist? Why not just stay in a nice hotel? It would be cheaper.

Increase the court to anywhere between 11 and 15. There are 11 circuits, so 1 SC justice for each makes sense.

Then that court's first order of business is to shut the fuck up and do the job they are there to do.

Wait, why not reverse the previous decisions... Easy, because what has happened this year, can happen again... so...

Congress needs to codify women's reproductive rights, Chevron Deference, and anything else these bunch of fucking morons did this past year. Congress should then take a real close look at any other "business as usual" things that go on in government and see how they could be better protected from the next assault from these assholes.

The Fucking Idiot Six on the Supreme Court put into very sharp relief the weaknesses in our government. It's time to rectify that.

Sorry for the serious answer.

He lost it during the D-Day invasion in France during World War II. He was on Juno Beach as he was in the Canadian army. If I recall correctly he was shot 6 times, but survived. One very tough man.

I got to meet him back in the eighties, when I was a teenager. He was a truly wonderful person and his death in 2005 made the world a lesser place.

I understand that the previous Boeing CEO was a trained engineer, but he was surrounded by MBA's on the board.

MBA's need to stay in their lane and build trinkets destined for the land fill and leave the important work, that people's lives depend upon, to their betters.

Profit is not the most important thing in the world and these idiot accountants have killed hundreds of people due to their stupidity.

If you flirt with an NPC or a dragon... You're making the DM either very uncomfortable, or you are turning him/her on.

Televising that trial would be a huge mistake and it is unbelievable that any sane individual thinks it is a good idea.

Anyone following that fucking narcissist cannot be swayed by evidence. It is just an opportunity for him to say things that will incite his followers to violence, or what ever he wants them to do.

The trial needs to be conducted by the book and fully documented and not televised.

I would rather you look at that poll as being a message that those of us who are NOT insane, should not rest. We need to keep pushing for competent people in positions of power in our government.

That is going to take you, me, and everyone that wants the above to vote in every single election from now on.

Amateur...

In Back to the Future, Marty traveled from 1985 to 1955.

If that movie was made today, Marty would travel back to 1993.

And it's not even about Trans Adults, or Trans Kids, or other LGBTQA+ groups, or any other small marginalized group that really doesn't have a real political power.

What it is about are sociopathic assholes that want political power and money, who are using the bigotry of simple minded assholes to create "boogie men" that only the sociopaths can "fight" to protect the bigots' children. When the last "boogie man" has been defeated, there WILL ALWAYS BE ANOTHER that requires the bigoted to vote for the sociopaths to "protect them" yet again. These groups, LGBTQA+, are targeted because there are not enough of them, or they are so marginalized already, that they are unable to push back effectively in the political arena (actually don't think that is true for LGBTQA+ as a whole, as long as they fight together).

It's LGBTQA+ now, next it will be some other group that poses a "threat to society". In 1930's Germany, this marginalized group were the Jews and, if you read your history, you know how that went. With 4,000,000 Jewish men, women, and children killed. All so that some sociopathic assholes could have power and money.

If you really want to see this in action, read about Germany's history in the 1930's.

It is sick, it is disgusting and it is happening in the United States RIGHT NOW.

There are no appropriate apologitics for this type of behavior, PERIOD THE FUCKING END.

How to fix what is going on? If you are of age (18 in the U.S.) to VOTE, then make sure you go to EVERY FUCKING ELECTION you are eligible to vote in. There are a LOT more elections going on, than the Presidential and and mid-terms. You are on the internet, the list for all elections you are eligible to vote in is easily available with a simple search with your favorite search engine.

Tl,Dr: If you are over 18 in the US... GET OUT AND VOTE! It may not be cool, or rad, or whatever the current thing to say is, but if you do not want a future where politicians are living in your uterus and bedroom, VOTE. Especially if you are in the younger generations (Gen Y and Z). Full disclosure, I am a Gen X'er with Silent Generation Parents (pre-Boomer generation).

Did the same thing two weeks ago. It was an 11 year old account.

Now it's all gone. Every bit of advice I gave, things I learned, knowledge I passed along, and pointless arguments I had, have all gone to the bit bucket.

And I feel good about it.

How do they plan to deal with all the ozone that will come off of those plasma speakers? I've made a plasma tweeter in the past and it sounded excellent, but the ozone it produced made it rather unhealthy to run for long periods of time.
