Woofer posted:Given how things have gotten progressively worse under Trump’s administration, and given that we are now dealing with a goddamn pandemic, if you don’t vote for him to be out of office and instead wanna protest vote, then you are partly responsible for whatever depths we hit in another few years. Sorry, thats not how this works. The inability of a candidate to garner the votes needed is not the fault of the voters.

Acebuckeye13 posted:I think the big difference is that in every big sexual assault accusation that's blown up, there's always been multiple accusers. Clinton, Cosby, Trump, Weinstein, Lauer, Kavanaugh, most of them followed the same pattern—when one accusation came out, they were swiftly followed by others accusing the same behavior. Which, of course, is typically how it works—rapists and abusers don't stop at one person, they use their power to do whatever the hell they want, and often get more brazen about it the longer they go on. Even Franken had multiple people calling out his behavior, with photographic evidence, though of course his conduct was far less heinous than that of the other men I've mentioned.

maybe our resident bootlicker isn't defending their political beliefs, but in fact defending his political beliefsbird food bathtub posted:Thought OPEC and the rest agreed to cut production a week or two ago to put prices back up, did that not pan out? It won't help. Demand is destroyed. The cuts basically need to be doubled to bring supply back into line with demand. The Texas Railroad Commission(the God-Emperor oil and gas regulatory authority in Texas) held a public hearing last week on re-implementing prorationing for the first time since the 1970s. The industry may be many things, but it is generally not short-sighted and realizes that it drilled itself out of a job and doesn't entirely trust itself to not do it again.

SCOTUS rules that the Sixth Amendment requires unanimous verdicts, and that this applies to the states via the Fourteenth. Oregon last and only state to allow non-unanimous verdicts. Now, here's the kicker, an effective 5-3-1 ruling and not how you think. Gorusch,, Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor and Kavanaugh for. Alito, Roberts and Kagan dissenting in varying degrees. Thomas concurring with the majority but believes the Sixth "applies against the States through the Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, not the Due Process Clause" https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf/18-5924_n6io.pdf

They just shoved whatever oil leak was there into the sand "to return it from whence it came". Of course that was against the law/regulations/policies, but I'm guessing if this goes on long enough, nearby Oklahoma locations are going to have enough oil spills to turn the whole drat state into a HAZMAT site. with the EPA basically turning a blind eye to everything it wouldn't surprise me to see storage go up in flames to collect insurance

Fallom posted:Oil field pride seems like the perfect mix of xenophobia and toxic masculinity, because men do Big Hard Jobs to make sure the dirty Sauds don't conquer the world. Ironically, their livelihood is still 100% dictated by what OPEC does so maybe the niggling sense of impotence factors in. I'm enjoying greatly explaining to very patriotic and brave oil field workers why the US actually cares more about its relationship with the Saudis than it does their job

Stop giving Republicans exactly what they want while getting watered down compromises and vague promises to address this later (they won't).
