Even if it’s not overturned, who’s supposed to enforce it? The EPA? They’ve already had their authority gutted by the SC, and they’re about to have a pro-oil sycophant installed as chair.

I wonder what these numbskulls thought of Tim Walz. He seemed to do the real, down-to-earth thing pretty well also.

You’re assuming this child was born in a hospital. A lot of these nutty types will do a home birth either by themselves or with a midwife sympathetic to their ideals. In either case, the kid is born without any official documentation, which majorly screws them over later in life, especially if they later decide to join the civilized world.

Turns out it’s just a canoe rental place that’s named “Laundromat Bingo Tanning Notary.”

In my limited understanding of California property taxes, I believe property values are only reassessed on the sale of the property, so if he was living in a house deeded to him by his parents, he might have been paying taxes on a decades-old appraisal. So even if they bought his exact house back for him, he’d still be stuck with significantly higher taxes, which he’d have to fight to be compensated for as well.

Not that it changes your point about representation in this case, but I’m pretty sure that photo is at least 20 years old. This is the current, equally diverse Oklahoma Supreme Court:

Dems need to target the people on the fence between voting Dem and not voting at all.

Believe it or not, I’d say that’s who this message is targeted at. It’s for the people saying “Biden isn’t the exact candidate I want, so I’m not going to vote this time to teach Dems a lesson. Then they’ll have to run the exact candidate I want next time.” The message is that you should know that strategy will get you Trump, and you should know by now how that will go.

economic systems dependent on reliable growth will collapse

Huh, maybe that's the actual problem.
