If they're gonna try another coup, in a way it would be more relaxing to get it out of the way this year than in 2029.

This is large scale disenfranchisement and now SCOTUS has even less excuse not to reject Trump's EO on mail voting. Allowing him to move forward would have clear negative harms to voters that could not be reversed, even as his claim for authority over voting processes is legally dubious.

If The Simpsons took place today, their house would be worth four hundred million dollars. Homer's income adjusted for inflation would be one billion dollars per second; the pink car would be so valuable, only the Sultan of Brunei could possess it. Every person in 1987 had this

It's ugly and rotten-hearted to speak ill of the dead if they were a powerful politician who pushed constantly for war and misery. It's perfectly fine to speak ill of the dead if they were some nobody immigrant who was near a cop.
