Had to look up that second one. Adding that to the "how to identify nazis" file.

I hope its a good thing that my first thought was "the gently caress does six megawatts of energy mean?"

Alright, let's do this
I felt compelled to email a former college professor this morning:

quote:

Back in 2016, you had a course on Interwar Europe and the rise of fascism. In that course’s final oral exam, you asked if Donald Trump was a fascist. At the time my answer was “No, he’s just an rear end in a top hat.”

In light of recent events, I would like to amend the first part of that answer.

Yeah, I scratched my head a bit as well in early December while attempting to decipher all the Proud Boy in-jokes from some protest.
The shirts slipped by Amazon "quality control" for quite a while as well, it seems.

Nah, she was shot through some doors at the end of a hallway in a stairwell trying to climb over a blockade. There’s video floating around out there, but I’m not going to link it.

So does this mean the 25th can’t be invoked?

Basically everyone just bides their time until Joe comes in?

Meanwhile the FBI gets to track down all the tips provided? It’d be interesting to find out the outcomes of all this poo poo.

I would hope that the 25th could be done still, but I really can't speak to how the process works past the various cabinet secretaries. The dipshits from yesterday did a good enough job documenting their crimes and many of them have already been doxxed, so I'd hope the FBI nabbing these folks and charging them with at least felonies is a relatively easy process.

Yeah that post was fake news.

The view through the window on the left was this (pre-shooting, gun visible)

She started to climb through the window on the right.

real cool how you can now break down the doors of congress while it's in session, storm the building with guns and pipebombs, and walk right out with zero consequences, while cops take selfies with you. totally not going to cause any issues in the future.
