The idea of impeaching judges would require judicial ethics to matter more to Congress than narrow partisan advantage. There are no checks and balances when the opposition obeys the ruling party in advance out of fear and the ruling party is corrupt and tyrannical.

Locking people up for using drugs will never make sense to me. The people I've known who've used drugs, in spite of the threat of severe consequences, did so bc they are not/were not okay. Locking people in dungeons traumatizes them further and makes these patterns even harder to break.
