Exactly this! I was just saying to my girlfirend the other day that if you had asked me 2-3 years ago I'd probably be mostly against expanding SCOTUS just because we all saw what happened with the "nuclear option" thing.

But now? I say expand the shit out of the motherfucker! 13, 15, 21? IDGAF

It's sad that just passing federal laws re: abortion never really crossed my mind until now. LGBT rights is easier, just add it to existing civil rights/anti-discrimination laws. I doubt even the current RWNJ SCOTUS would be dumb enough to invalidate them

Cool way to make up a straw man about how I, or other progressives, vote so that you can uselessly attack your own tent and thereby dissuade people from actually voting! Who needs Russian bots when assholes like you do their work for them by making shit up?

Voted for the fucking DEM CANDIDATE, like I always do.

You know shitfuck about your own party.

I've been voting a straight Democratic ticket for 40 years, asshole, and I was never stupid enough to think Bernie Sanders had a snowball's chance in hell of getting elected. You probably voted for Jill Stein, you childish, little fucking moron.

PS - You don't need to respond, because you're one more dick, whose shit I don't want to listen to. I

Oh, did you want something? You must; you responded right away. I've been busy with people and things actually relevant.

You are an abject moron. You are trivial, unimportant, and dismissed.

They have not "GOT to impeach". They impeached Trumpy and it did no good. Successful impeachment means 67 votes in the Senate which will not happen even in the best timeline.

You know what they CAN do, with only a bare majority in House and Senate? Expand the Court.

May Mitch live to see his work to constrain voters be undone. May he see his legacy unravel before his eyes. And, in his last days, may he be surrounded by caregivers who are unable to disguise the contempt they feel for him.

Blood thinners. Random nurses on Twitter opined. Then a small injury can make a huge bruise. Even a blood draw can have a big bruisey nimbus around it. Also in photos that are better lit his zombie hand is clearly purple. Maybe a fall as well, but how that munches the *back* of his hand I do not know. 🖐🏼

In tag it’s “no touchbacks”. But perhaps that’s a different legal concept.

We'd better hurry, have you seen ol' Purpleface McConnell lately??

Sheesh, that guy is the picture of good health! Or the opposite of that.

😃😃😃 I love this! And if we can’t do it in real life it could be a component of a ripping novel. Like a Fletcher Knebel thing. 😌

Don’t know. But my guess would either be censure or just nothing. And I’m pretty sure censure is a censure motion being read and they vote it on while the guy has to sit there. 🙁

Clearly ‘centaur’ would be a better punishment. The bad person has to catch and ride a centaur.
