Congress and SCOTUS - legislate by lawsuit?

Biden will have veto power, but a red Congress could bring all sorts of lawsuits before the red SCOTUS, and reinterpret all sorts of constitutional rights. Thoughts?

Zardoz - the conservative vision for America

In the year 2293, the human population is divided into the immortal "Eternals" and mortal "Brutals". The Brutals live in an irradiated wasteland, growing food for the Eternals, who live apart in "the Vortex", leading a luxurious but aimless existence on the grounds of a country estate. The connection between the two groups is through Brutal Exterminators, who kill and terrorize other "Brutals" at the orders of a huge flying stone head called Zardoz, which supplies them with weapons in exchange for the food they collect.

Trump lawyers saw Thomas as their best hope

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/11/02/trump-lawyers-saw-justice-thomas-as-only-chance-to-stop-2020-election-certification-00064592

Eastman, an architect of Trump’s last-ditch bid to subvert the 2020 election, once clerked for Thomas and had corresponded with his wife, Virginia, in the weeks before Jan. 6.

Um...somebody needs to ask Clarence Thomas WHY John Eastman would consider him the best hope to overturn the election. Impartial? Is 2 + 2 = 3 now?

the Darrell Brooks tactics

reminded me of election denial. Mockery, drama, and toddler tactics. Is this behavior contagious?

Day care workers who used horror mask to scare children charged with felony child abuse

I totally agree with the parents, this was messed up, but then again there's a place millions of children go, every week, where the decorations always feature a dead body, often bloodied, and a dramatic individual tells them they could be burned, forever and ever, if they don't make the cut. Child abuse!

if "Armageddon" needed to be said publicly

then that's exactly the right move. Putin needs to be shaken by the collar, his face shoved in a bowl of ice water. Maybe hearing this out loud, along with the rest of the world, means more than if it goes through diplomatic channels. Biden brought the truth about Putin's psychotic plans into the light, and I cheer him for that.

only 5 years for a coup???

https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/3677079-proud-boys-leader-pleads-guilty-to-seditious-conspiracy/

I'm sorry but treason used to carry the death penalty. How do we get from that, to a mere 5 years???
Life sentence, without parole!
