Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 2h1. Each expansion will be increasingly difficult, politically; 2. There is no public confidence in the Court already and it is already just a partisan tool, let’s make it ours instead of theirs; 3. We should be looking at the lower courts; 4. What realistic alternatives are there? 000
Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 23hWhen I was in my 20s (before the affordable care act) I had a stretch where I just had high risk insurance in case I got cancer or got in a car accident or something. I never used it. I broke my finger and didn’t use it. It wasn’t worth it for ordinary things. Never filed a claim. But I had it. 000

Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I saw Supergirl now that it is streaming. It was not a great movie. The villain was forgettable, the plot kind of a mess, the big moments felt forced. The actress did a fine job but didn’t have much to work with. 110
Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Republicans obstructed everything when there was a Democratic president and it worked.

Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 30/06/2026It is amazing to me how bad establishment Democrats are at predicting the future.

Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 03/06/2026The majority of the Supreme Court is racist. We should say that plainly so people understand it, not hiding behind language that makes it sound like they have some other reasoning. They are racist. 000

Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 18/12/2025I’m amazed because it is consistently worse in every way. There is no advantage to it whatsoever. Usually there’s at least something better.

Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 10/11/2025We can’t trust Senate Democrats. This stinks of a behind the scenes deal. If a Senator wants us to ever trust them again, they need to immediately call for Schumer’s ouster. Otherwise they were part of it and they need to go. That includes every one even if they voted no. 000
Christopher Lamb @crlamb.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Senate Democrats think they are smarter than us. They think we’ll blame this on the 8 who voted for it, who are either retiring or who aren’t up for reelection for years. But there’s no way this happened without the rest being in on it. Get rid of Schumer and all the rest. We can’t trust them. 010

They deliberately sought out black members of the French army and targeted them for killing. That’s just the beginning. The list of their crimes is long and horrifying. It is not a “sick tat.” It is a symbol of hate. 030
