If Trump doesn't burn down the country over the next 4-8 years he's all but guaranteed to leave office with a net worth greater than even his highest previous claims.

I hope he's so unpopular that the next president campaigns with a "lock him up" plank and actually follows through with it.

It'd be nice for the Democrats to at least try, though.

Hopefully someone more reputable will try and get in touch with the dude they got the yearbook photos from.

In one fell swoop, all federal attorneys are replaced by the liberty university law school class of 2016.

Staffing the DOJ full of inexperienced liberty university grads seems like it'd be a good thing for everyone that isn't in the administration.

A dem lost a special election in a trump 30+ district by like 5 points last week, 2018 is definitely on the table.

In what loving universe would a Republican controlled Congress get a supermajority to impeach Trump?

The universe where Trump got elected president in the first place?

The wapo article comparing him to, quote, a "front row law student" is dead on. Eurgh. It's like Scalia without even the underlying oily deviousness.

Do you have a link to this?

What does this mean? Even if people don't like it, SCOTUS rulings still have rule of law.

If only their were an example in history of one of the political branches ignoring a Supreme Court ruling

The line of succession after VP is set by Congress. So they could always change it but obviously they wouldn't.

Imo there's no way the GOP impeaches Trump without a huge split in the party. A huge portion of the base simply won't tolerate it.

Not every GOP rep is from an R +10 district. Plenty of the guys in districts Clinton won are already getting nervous. It's not a foregone conclusion, but I certainly wouldn't table it either

I know that. That doesn't mean it wouldn't piss off a substantial subset of the party.

Primary and secondary schools have a lot more power to control what happens because it's a closed campus with a set schedule and the students are minors. Courts usually rule in favor of the least restriction as is practical.

Given the amount of crazy poo poo happening on college campuses on a daily basis, there's not really a line to be drawn.

uh what college did you go to where it’s hard to draw a line between posters literally telling lgbt students to kill themselves and the normal goings on of a college campus?

I really hope the Apple thing goes somewhere. Among other things, they have been using their monopoly to attempt to force everyone on the Internet to use H.264/H.265, because they get paid when people use them.
Apple is literally part of the group of companies pushing for the royalty-free AV1 to replace HEVC

The idea of someone losing a chance to be a SCOTUS clerk because of their dad being a high profile name and the appearance of impropriety that creates sucks, but then you need to think about the probability she only got the job in the first place because of her dad. Hereditary nepotism is bad, but its still a bummer when someone loses something through no fault of their own. :smith:

She’ll be fine.

Yes. A number of them do. Your participation determines the degree to which they wind up exercising, or expanding, influence in public decisionmaking.

oops we made a decision our state government doesn't like and they made that illegal

If you’re unhappy either the quality of Supreme Court justices nominated between 2017 and 2021 I hope you voted for Clinton. Otherwise, you have yourself to blame.

Clinton ran a poo poo campaign. That's nobody's fault but her own.
