Can you please point to a "left" policy that would disrupt your utopian right wing ideals so much that you clutch your perls tighter??

You guys had 4 years of unchecked balance and passed all sorts of shitty right policy......or well, just fucking the people over by sitting on the Stimulus package since May when the house introduced a bill for 1200 and the right NOT doing fucking thing much less thier job.......

Is government not suppose to work for the people, who voted against the right wing mandate?? Isn't this suppose to be a compromised??

No one was surprised. In general, people like him tend to support and push the worst version of humanity, then present bad faith arguments as to why they're not racist until they just can't keep gaslighting. It usually comes in the form of one pining for the days when he could lynch someone or normalizing why brown people needed to be shot, but then ignoring how a few thousand non-brown yahoos can storm the capitol and only one of them takes a bullet for their troubles.

Meanwhile, back on topic.
Will Mitch ever admit that it was quite directly his fault that the GOP lost Georgia, or will he just retire and never mention it?
How poetic was it to see Lindsey Graham, who has been lapdog #1 since January 21, 2017 giving up on him last night?
The "president" says there will be a transfer of power on Jan 20th, still without using the word "concede," which I guess will be as much as we get on that.

Article Two, Section 1, Clause 6 of the Constitution says:

In Case of the Removal of the President from Office, or of his Death, Resignation, or Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of the said Office, the Same shall devolve on the Vice President, and the Congress may by Law provide for the Case of Removal, Death, Resignation or Inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what Officer shall then act as President, and such Officer shall act accordingly, until the Disability be removed, or a President shall be elected.[2]

This means that if the President is fired, dies, resigns, or is unable "to discharge [his] Powers and Duties" (unable to do the things a President has to do), the Vice President will take over their job. The Vice President will do the President's job until they get better (if they are just sick or disabled), or until the next Presidential election (if the President resigned or is dead). If neither the President nor the Vice President can do the President's job, Congress can decide who takes over the President's job. This is all the Constitution says about this subject.[2]

This clause was not very specific. It did not say:[2]

Who had the power to say a President was unable to do his job
Whether the Vice President would actually become President if he had to take over, or would just be "Acting President" (someone who did the President's job, but never got the title of "President")
Who would take the Vice President's job if he died, resigned, could not do his job, or had to take over for the President
How (or who) in Congress should decide who would take over if neither the President or the Vice President could do the President's job

Sergeant At Arms of the House resigned and Schumer is threatening to fire the Senate Sergeant At Arms if he doesn't resign too. Whatever Capitol Police let happen outside, it's entirely unacceptable that these two let this happen inside the Capitol. There was either no plan or no forethought that a plan would need to actually be carried out at some point. They split with all the offices open, computers on, cards in card readers, and left the fucking power on throughout out their evacuation period.

From beginning to end, all of this shit with Trump feels like it was a necessary growing pain of this democracy. These people think they're untouchable right up until they get slapped in the mouth.

Amazing to see such lack of security for them at the capital, but let minorities even march and we see full riot gear with people getting snatched left and right.

If someone incites a riot, then retreats to hide in his dining room to watch it on TV and four people die, can they be charged in the deaths?
Okay, so inciting a riot is a felony.
Culpable homicide laws have it that when a death occurs during or as a result of the commission of a felony, then the person behind the original felony can be held guilty for said death. Trust me, I spent a week and a half looking into how that works for a novel I wrote several years ago. Spend some time looking it up yourself if you don't.
Since the so-called president incited yesterday's riots and now four people have died, I am personally sitting aside and hoping to see him brought up on charges for it.

IMO, what happened was not a protest nor was it a riot....it was an attempted insurrection against the Congressional branch of the Federal government.

The precedent was set when Gerald Ford did this for Richard Nixon. A commutation is what requires a conviction in order to be valid.


However, unlike the past, I can see this pardon being challenged or Trump being forced to testify in court for charges against others since he can no longer plead the 5th.

yeah, I see your point. Nixon was indeed never tried or convicted for the things he resigned over. I stand corrected.

Also, "After Ford left the White House in 1977, he privately justified his pardon of Nixon by carrying in his wallet a portion of the text of Burdick v. United States, a 1915 U.S. Supreme Court decision that stated that a pardon carries an imputation of guilt and that its acceptance carries a confession of guilt.[4][5] "

Bear with me on this response, if you would.

I graduated high school with full-blown neoconservativism. I couldn't understand that I was a misogynistic, bigoted asshole because I was ignorant. I didn't understand how others could think differently than I did and I didn't understand that different life paths led to different possible outcomes. I was introduced to Ayn Rand and became an anarchocapitalist, then I started thinking, so I became a Libertarian, then I kept thinking and now I'm whatever the fuck I am. I realized fairly early that growth is a function of learning, and learning is a function of being willing to learn, and being willing to learn is a function of understanding things from different viewpoints.

I realized only in the past few years that I have to listen to people who experience things from a different viewpoint to learn about the biases they experience daily. I have to listen to people of color, I have to listen to economically disadvantaged people, I have to listen to educationally disadvantaged people, I have to listen to environmentally disadvantaged people. All these people give me a more holistic picture of my country- and its effects on the world. I can take this holistic picture and make more informed decisions about voting and about the ethicality of certain stances.

s14 is blind. He cannot see the similarities and differences between June 1, 2020 and January 6, 2021. He's unwilling to listen to different viewpoints. He doesn't want to see because he's ignorant. My father-in-law's like him- the moment I call him "ignorant," he shuts down because it's a perceived slur. It's not a slur- it's a wake-up call. Ignorance isn't bliss, and the lack of holistic thought means your belief system and end product is half-baked. Our country is supposed to be free and fair, and it's neither, and it's up to us to elect the right people to make it so.

Expand your mind. Be willing to understand different points of view. Some people are wrong- but some people are right.

Unrelated to dumbfuckery:

At this point I think ranked choice voting is the single thing that could save American Democracy. It would enable people to more easily vote for INDIVIDUALS instead of voting along party lines, which, I believe, would dissolve this whole left versus right divisive bullshit. It would level the playing field and would also eliminate the need for primaries, making campaigning cheaper. Only possible downside is some dimwits may find it confusing and counting votes may be more labor-intensive (in the case of a re-count). I understand there are a lot of lazy dimwits in this country, but I don't think that should stop progress.

Ranked Choice and four more Democrats in the Senate kill the Republican Party on the national stage. From there the necessary reforms like redistricting, voting rights, citizens united, etc, are easy to move forward.

The easiest fix is also the hardest fix: term limits for Congress.

Much like lifetime appointments on the federal judiciary level, Congress can do whatever it wants because there are a handful of people in there that can stay as long as they want.

I never understood why judges in states have limits subject to elections, while federal appointees are lifetime. California for example allows judges to be appointed by the governor for 6 or 12 year terms, and they are subject to voter approval or rejection at the next general election when their term expires.

Ranked Choice and four more Democrats in the Senate kill the Republican Party on the national stage. From there the necessary reforms like redistricting, voting rights, citizens united, etc, are easy to move forward.

This sounds like changing the rules to get what you want. I agree with ranked choice as you should be about voting for a candidate than a party. Do you agree with packing the supreme court, too?

The easiest fix is also the hardest fix: term limits for Congress.

Much like lifetime appointments on the federal judiciary level, Congress can do whatever it wants because there are a handful of people in there that can stay as long as they want.

I never understood why judges in states have limits subject to elections, while federal appointees are lifetime. California for example allows judges to be appointed by the governor for 6 or 12 year terms, and they are subject to voter approval or rejection at the next general election when their term expires.

This i wholeheartedly agree with. Elected officials should have to make choices that affect them as well, not at the end of their lives well off on their own.

Oh damn... I wanted him to challenge me and make me show everyone how he was the architect of his own undoing.

Indeed.
I mean, he made casual jokes about putting people in chains, killing my puppy, seemed to be obsessed with BLM, wished to lynch a black member, refused to let up on his man crush on me and now this. Fuck Fryburg.

We could always recombine the Dakotas and return them and Wyoming to federal territory status, since we're all about sticking to rules now.

Please point to where in the Constitution it specifies the number of Supreme Court justices.

Opinions on this? Pretty much hit the nail on the head.

"The storming of the US Capitol on January 6 is easily misunderstood. Shaken by the ordeal, members of Congress have issued statements explaining that America is a nation of laws, not mobs. The implication is that the disruption incited by President Donald Trump is something new. It is not. The United States has a long history of mob violence stoked by white politicians in the service of rich white Americans. What was unusual this time is that the white mob turned on the white politicians, rather than the people of color who are usually the victims." -Jeffrey Sachs (Economist)

True. Our politicians have to act like they have the people under control to maintain a global image of power, which was completely eroded away by the events of the 6th. Going to take some serious boot-strapping to cobble this country back together :rofl:

No wait, I want the smoke with this one.
We have had a history of leadership that has gotten power and then made it a game to maintain that power. That has always been the problem. A remedy to this would be term limits in congress AND the supreme court. Expanding the number of members of the court wouldn't make much of a difference if they were term limited as well. In theory, it would lead to a government working for more of the common good instead of just their political longevity.
Or...
We strip away some of their government funded security and see them left to fend for themselves when they piss off constitutents and the assaults start.

I would also like to point out that Mr. Nismo is not using conspiracy theory or other unprecedented trains of thought when speaking or giving counter-arguments.

If you want to go to war for American Conservatism that's what you're supporting. I'm not splitting hairs on this anymore.

Territories were made states purely to keep slavery and that era's Democrats in play. They never had the population and tax base to be proper states. So either return them to territories or make all territories of such standing states.


My opinions are loud, my position is clear, and I am anything but disingenuous. I don't appreciate the bullshit call out.

Words

I just banned rebuild for being argumentative. Really he was hostile and seemed a crayons bite away from going full mouth breather. That said, nismo isn't behaving that way. Idgaf if he refutes his own premise or argues against something you said in his imagination. If civil discourse can be maintained, I'm all about it.
I'd much prefer nobody else sinks to, or is driven to the level of fucktardery visited upon us by rebuild and zombie.
If someone makes an argument without evidence or logic, feel free to laugh them off or refuse to engage.

While it is not against the rules to swear, be crass, or rude I would whole heartily recommend treating others with the same amount of respect that you are given.

Something that strikes me about the failed insurrection is how so many Maga cultists are claiming it was antifa, that the people killed were martyrs (save for the cop who was beaten to death with a fire extinguisher - they conveniently leave him out), knowing full well that it wasn't antifa members, and that had those folks been killed serving the cause of civil rights, they'd have gotten what they deserved.

Most libertarians I've seen sway real right with how everything is now. Online platforms seem real right or real left, no middle ground.

But to add for Wednesday, I had a feeling that was going to end badly, but like that? Fuck man... I'm not even caring about how left and right look stupid, but we're a fucking laughing stock to the world. More people died for no fucking reason.

Nah, Wednesday was the hardcore Trump supporters. There were some that honestly wanted to protest, but I knew there were going to be people who were going to cause violence. I saw lots of Antifa in BLM riots (the videos of them being grabbed and literally thrown to the police were fucking awesome), but that's how every protest ends up if we're being honest. There's the people who want to protest a cause they believe in, the people there to incite violence and take advantage, and then everyone in between that.

// To add, I did see a few specific specific people who were in pictures from Wednesday, but also other protests from BLM, but there was way fucking more than a few that went in the Capitol building.

// Double edit, that's if they're real pictures, maybe they're photoshopped? It's the internet after all lol
