Different martyrs than dead justices.
The presidency needs to be reframed. It’s not some position of ultimate power. Presidents have far less control than the general public thinks, or the media would have you believe.
To get anything lasting done you need all three branches working together and with this court, and congress…
I don’t think winning you over was their goal.
Yes, to increase the number of justices we’ll need a congressional and executive branch to push the appointments through.
It won’t matter who Alito or Thomas pick as their replacements if there’s 5 new left leaning justices on the bench.
It’s sad to see the Supreme Court as such an overt political structure now. It’s always been political but this is egregious.
Say it with me
Pack the fucking court

We’ve done it before, we can do it again.
Use rclone
Don’t ignore the flawed polling data his model is based on
2016 was dire, but Nate Silver is often wrong. Polling as it is done today is unreliable at best, and outright lies at worst.
Vote locally, build support networks and hopefully we can weather whatever comes.
Who exactly is included when you say theirs? Reactionary language regardless of target, scope or ideology is rarely productive.
Absolutely!
If anyone is interested here’s a great thread on it
Just be cautious when moving or backing up the files, things like rsync and bakula have specific flags needed to preserve symlinks.

The last time it took us almost 200 years to get the right, and over the next 50 nobody thought to codify it into law… I hope they fucking overturn it, and apologize.
Lots of people get used to the new normal, all of them “doing what their corporate overlords want them to” will do serious harm to a lot of people while we wait 20 years for a person to die.
Vote and campaign for better representation in Congress, vote locally, create mutual aid networks to bypass unjust laws. That’s how we win.
Are referring to some silent majority? Conservative voters are historically an over represented voting block.

Well considering she worked at the State Dept. I’m sure there were some exceptions proffered.
My argument is the email server was in line with government TS SOP and not, yah know a bathroom at a golf resort.

It allows for immunity to any “official acts” by the president while they are in office and does not define what an “unofficial” act would be. So if an action is challenged from the lower courts it’ll end up at the supreme court where they will deem it official or unofficial.
Which brings the onus of dethroning a king president up to the Congress to impeach them. Which has never happened. However, we have impeached a supreme court justice in the past.
