are these those checks and balances i’ve heard so much about?

ah okay thanks for explaining. sounds like it might have also been similar to the r/trees and r/marijuanaenthusiasts thing.

from the article:

In late October, Trump said in a radio interview that he would immediately fire Smith as special counsel if re-elected. “It’s so easy — I would fire him within two seconds,” Trump said, adding that he got “immunity at the Supreme Court.”

6th recall this year so far

what was the story with that?

the leopards do not eat because they are hungry. they eat because they can.

i think the best-case scenario from all of this is that trump decides to continue supporting ukraine just to spite putin. i dont even want to think about what the worst-case scenario might be

i fucking called it.

turns out the answer to my question is “less than a week”

does trump give a fuck about any of this? he’s shown that he’s only out for himself. he doesn’t need to worry about re election, and he’s old enough there’s a good chance that he’ll either die in office or shortly afterwards.

facts have a left-leaning bias

is diplomacy an option?

no thank you, i get all my deals from quick deals thank you very much

did you read the article?

British Wikipedian, Stuart Marshall, made the final ruling in September, decisively supporting the article’s inclusion. “Based on the strength of the arguments … and it’s not close … I discarded the argument that scholars haven’t reached a conclusion on whether the Gaza genocide is really taking place”, Marshall wrote in his decision. “The matter remains contested, but there’s a metric truckload of scholarly sources linked in this discussion that show a clear predominance of academics who say that it is.”

Marshall concluded his ruling with the straightforward statement: “We follow the scholars.”

On its “Gaza genocide” page, it states that “Experts, governments, United Nations agencies, and non-governmental organisations have accused Israel of carrying out a genocide against the Palestinian people during its invasion and bombing of the Gaza Strip in the ongoing Israel–Hamas war.”

christmas wouldn’t be christmas without 42 geese

whoa now that is a crazy coincidence

not sure who’s listening to this, but i thought i’d throw my hat in the ring. i can also burn all my money extremely quickly, if desirable.

aren’t ironclads a type of ship in civ6? is this a civ6 reference?

as critical as i usually am of the democrat’s strategy of doing nothing, i think it was the right call here. if the appointment of a new justice did get blocked (which it very likely would have), then that would translate to yet another justice being appointed by trump. and that’s simply too big a risk to take

always remember, <=> is the three-way comparison operator. it takes two arguments.

who wants to bet that there is, in fact, a price tag for his mass deportation plan?
