After about 2+ months while it's not a lot missing
I need these two things!
Drawstring tall kitchen, lawn size garbage bags.
Chilli Powder
(And it's not like there pure chilli bottle that I could mix with the ?garlic, oregano & what ever else bottles)
These are two that stick out, maybe a few minor things that aren't that important since I can't remember them.
Political Science Expert Barbara F Walter said in The New Yorker Radio Hour podcast...
The United States, until January 6th, 2021, was considered the worlds longest standing democracy, the political scientist Barbara F. Walter says. It was downgraded to an anocracy after. http://nyer.cm/OrwYZ9O
(She said Switzerland is now considered the longest running democracy)
I'd never even heard of this word till I heard this podcast earlier on Sunday. It's the in between between Democracy, and Autocracy.
It comes from a CIA (yeah, not always on our "good guys" list) group
"serves on a CIA advisory panel called the Political Instability Task Force that monitors countries around the world and predicts which of them are most at risk of deteriorating into violence.".
Dana Milbank
By law this group can't access the USA.
She's serves on it, and took their predictive analysis models and applied it herself, and seems to agree with them.
She also mentioned in a tweet someone who mentioned Jason Stanley whom Nevilledog highlighted in
his OP post-
America is now in fascism's legal phase - an article in The Guardian
Her current/new book is "How Civil Wars Start"
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries talked about the Filbuster and Super Majorities...
He was on WNYC AM/FM Brian Lehrer's show yesterday.
As most of us know/have learned The Filibuster is
-not- mentioned in Our Constitution.
He pointed our what is mentioned - a Super Majority.
There are 4 areas where the SM is put in play.
The one we know most recently - to convict
a President after Impeachment has been approved.
To countermand a Presidential Veto.
To approve a Treaty.
To evoke the 25fth Amendment.
He said they're still trying work on the filibuster re voting rights.
