Oh interesting. That was frustratingly difficult to find.

You saying she’ll be president in a few years? Don’t threaten me with a good time!

Agreed but he’d still be a spring chicken in modern terms. I’d rather see max age 50 than min age 35.

Everybody in congress is wealthier than most people.

Well, not the Goranthian Underwater Book Club Crusades. They were pretty mild though. That timeline was still better.

Mitchell. This is not gonna be good.

Amazing to me they can be held back at all. It just shows how much power the executive branch has taken. Congress should be able to do whatever they please in this regard.

What would that do? Dead bodies don’t put off heat very long. Well aside from decomposition, but that’s negligible.

True but the rook can capture the knight, so mate is forced but not yet. See the other answers.

Though you’re correct, Merriam Webster makes it seem that “hung” is fine here too.

No. He has an obsession with being really dumb.

Okay, fair enough. When you said, “Unfortunately when he does that, it’s about names of the buildings” I sort of misread that as a slight more generally, but I understand better now. Anyway, I find myself asking myself the following.

What are they to do, beyond organizing the biggest upset in history? Seriously, very little of what the democrat caucus is doing in either house is being even discussed, let alone brought for voting. No doubt heads should be rolling, but there just isn’t a feature in our broken ass government for that to happen until the adults have the conn again.

Yeah, that’s all Senator Sanders has contributed in nearly 5 decades of public service, civil architecture. And he certainly isn’t doing anything else currently.

I get the frustration, but there are very few congress members that have worked for the people harder and many others to which directing one’s ire would make more sense.

He is doing a lot of organizing and speaking without hesitation. I’m not sure what you feel he should be doing. His caucus doesn’t currently have much power.

Makes it pretty clear how badly the democrats have alienated the people with constant misstep after misstep. If only there were a left party for many of those independents to call home, rather than a right party and a further right, authoritarian party.

We can call it USSR 2 Electric Boogaloo. United States Soviet Republic

Well there is a somewhat concrete way to determine this, or at least the lower bound. For a given set of games you’re interested in (e.g. FIDE games from the last 5 years for ratings from 1800 to 2200), how many ended in not draw or resignation but mate and didn’t have a blunder in the last move. There would still be more in the games that ended in resignation because they saw it coming.

But that may be the actual crux of what you’re saying. What level does one reach before they see it coming early enough to resign? I guess that is an interesting question.

WDYM? In this and many other cases, it is forced. Mate in two nearly always precedes mate in one, unless there is a blunder that leads to it.
