With Kavanaugh's stance that the President shouldn't be investigated for crimes - I hope they grill him at his confirmation about it, and if he thinks that should hold true even if the president were guilty of treason and/or murder.
I know, that's what I mean. If he nominates someone with views that are polar opposite of Dems, why would a single one vote yes, even the red state ones? I know it doesn't matter, but it would be symbolic I suppose if zero Dems vote yes. It's what the base wants.It's so frustrating... *sigh*
We need a youtube collab on government 101.
Put Lindsey Ellis, Cody Johnston, CaptainDisillusion, Will Schoder, CGP Grey, etc together to make some edutainment videos on shit school failed at.
If all the GOP votes for it, what does Manchin, et all have to gain?
Yep. He barely has the faculties to know who actually works for him and that may or may not be in the same room much less who would be qualified. He's given a list and is probably going with who has the easiest name to remember or sounds the coolest like he's naming his own RPG character.
I assume anything that magically appears and is throttling social media with hashtags like that are Russian scams and bots.
Civil rights for non-straight, non-male, non-Christian Americans was nice while it lasted.

Like, for some reason, the bots are pushing David Davis reaaaaaaaaaaly hard right now instead of Boris.

I have so many fucking posts from the last couple hours of people being declarative saved in a draft just in case, lol Christ.
And people mock the OT threads
Interesting. I'm sure he'll have miraculously changed his views since then.
And? So what if we are wrong? It's not a big deal.
I'm sorry, what now?
This kind of thing has been bothering me for a while - trying to apply rational descriptions to the actions of trump and his people - as if Trump just genuinely likes Putin and is ignoring advice because he disagrees with it. He's ignoring advice because he is highly compromised - to such a degree that he paraphrases Putin rather than inject his own thoughts. He's terrified of whatever that kompromat is. It must be incredibly bad - but that could also just be colossally criminal tax returns rather than some pee soaked snuff tape. But whatever it is, it is deciding our policy towards Russia.
Our producer in South Bend just saw Judge Amy Coney Barrett at her home asked if she was the SCOTUS pick: "I can't confirm nor deny anything but you can see that I'm here."
we talk about this yet? Yet another GOP congressional candidate was caught posting racist-ass shit. This time it's Seth Grossman, in NJ-02

For his part, Cruz—whose 2016 presidential campaign earned a reputation as the best-run in the field, despite losing— has taken a passive approach. "Do we want to go out and define the guy now?" Roe told me. "It's pretty expensive to define somebody in Texas. It's a lot easier to let him define himself." Roe argued that O'Rourke is "self-radicalizing" in front of voters—on issues like impeaching Trump, gun control and "Medicare for all"—which is great for firing up the base but a poor way to beat Cruz in Texas.

Especially because he'll simultaneously and correctly be defining Cruz as a hearltess bastard who looks like congealed hatred.From the Politico article on Beto. This seems... unwise.

Exactly, which is why I thought Hardiman would be the nominee.Fuck this stupid game show nomination. Kavanaugh is probably best for the right in the medium term but will probably engage liberals to an hitherto unheard of rage for the next couple of years. Hardiman probably blunts that momentum.

Guess I might have to eat some crow.
