it probably shouldn't be, but it's still kinda shocking to me that they'd be openly discussing this

this is definitely the endgame though, whatever is happening is going to be happen in the next five or ten years and the next game will have new rules and new players

yup, it doesn't even matter if they're successful with this specific impeachment plan. all that matters is that they now feel comfortable discussing this loving lunacy in public. that's extremely bad.

how does replacing judges work in PA, wouldn't the Dem gov just replace them with someone else who'd say the map is fine?

I do think they'll try to go full scorched earth on this. They spent a lot of time and money to create a pro-GOP apartheid state commonwealth in PA and it was a huge reason they have all 3 branches now. No way they let that go.

Senate approves Wolf's appointments.

Their end game is "impeach all non right-leaning justices, try the case.. again?" The problem is that its not clear how all of this would play out, its sort of crazy talk because it really doesn't guarantee them an outcome at all.

one of them was a receipt for a disbursement from the government stockpiles at Ur of a single gur (a sumerian measure of weight and volume that was a theoretical cube equal to 'the amount of x substance an otherwise unencumbered donkey can carry on its back) of wort, the precursor to fermented beer, to some guy, for services rendered

from around the 1990s bce

records like that, etched in fired clay, will be among the only surviving evidence of human writing once human civilization's been extinct a few thousand years

but their decision stands and even in a hellworld in which the justices all get thrown out for no cause, without a case before the hypothetically newly-composed pa scrotum they can't do anything

right euphronius

i guess the state republican party/statehouse republicans could bring that case. so the plan is throw out the duly-elected justices (lol electing justices), bring a whiny boo-boo case before the court about how unfair the previous court's decision was, and get an emergency stay "pending a decision," conveniently after nov 2018

basically, but there's literally no guarantee any of it will actually happen and the GOP judges on the pennsylvania supreme court are conservative but I'd be really, really surprised if they played ball with this.

“Moderate” suburban rep Ryan Costello of PA-6 was saying this too but he’s actually affected since he’s now the most vulnerable republican in PA.

But why even open your mouth, Toomey? He’s statewide and probably will retire in 2022 anyway. It’s like he can’t help but be an rear end in a top hat.

a lot of it might be trial balooning to try and get a sense from the justices if they'd even go for it tbh, idk

It hurts chances of the GOP holding the House, and if the GOP doesn't hold power then the office/branch of government isn't legitimate.

That's amazing. Don't overdo it. And do a little research, if you haven't, about exercise with your particular rib condition. I know it's not a rare one and I've seen it before in person, but I imagine your body has adapted to it in a variety of ways you may not be aware of. And disregard this msg if I'm telling you poo poo you already know.
