They did the same thing with the ballot eligibility case when they said ‘well couldn’t any state remove any candidate on a pretext?’ as if there were no possibility of serious judicial review. I guess they simply assume the state courts are as partisan, biased and corrupt as they are.

Remember when th right used to bitch about nothing so much as 'activist judges'? Now you can hear the conservative justices in real time trying to talk each other into inventing Presidential immunity out of thin air simply because they (claim to) think it would be a good idea.

Newsflash - people lose their jobs without needing to be convicted first. Every. Damn. Day.

IIRC Eastman has argued that because he committed the same crime in a bunch of different states, only one of the cases should be allowed to go forward or it would be Double Jeopardy. The judge simply told him no, you don’t get rewarded for being a more ambitious criminal.

So, being honest, what kind of serious conversation did you want as a result? Not sure what the sayings are in your neck of the woods but kids around here get taught "ask a silly question, get a silly answer" at quite a young age.

Errm, yeah - but if you were engaging in good faith right now the next words in your post would have been "so I could say 'look how stupid this lefty story is".

Everything outside the suburbs is a farm. You elitist city folk wouldn’t understand.

Look, Elon has decided that thousands of people are going to lose their jobs and that's one of the only things that makes Brent happy these days. Just let him have his moment to bask in other people's misery.

Remember when the right was adamant that Obama was dividing the nation? Man who set himself on fire outside Trump's Manhattan hush money trial dies

Is she just an idiot or on the payroll?

Does that mean he can’t be a state rep anymore either?

Which ones would be left?

Brilliant story from the UK this morning of an MP embezzling campaign funds to pay off ‘some bad people’. Story goes: MP meets man on dating app, goes to man’s flat for a party. MP meets second man at party, moves on to his flat. MP is seen coming a mile off by man’s flat mates, who accuse him of throwing up all over the place and hold him captive until he pays them £6.5k for the ‘damage’. MP doesn’t have the money, and decides that getting his campaign manager to steal it from the office would be a much better solution than calling the police. Genius. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/apr/17/tory-mp-loses-whip-after-claims-he-used-party-funds-to-pay-bad-people

That is categorically a lie. You said it, and have been defending it ever since. Also he is an editor at NPR and all 88 editors at NPR are Democrats Dude - I just told you that was the point you could have been making this whole time instead of refusing to back down from the thing you obviously got wrong. You were so hell bent on defending your corner that you failed to wrap your brain around the implication of your numbers. Problem is, it just goes straight back to the point I made earlier - your own source says that it was Donald Trump who changed everything. Since 2016, how many conservatives would want to work for an organisation that would ask them to cover Trump in an unbiased manner? Unfortunately there appear to be very few around, they'd all rather win the White House than save their party.

You have said you understand that people exist who are neither registered republicans nor registered democrats... yet you still insist that the sum of all people must equal republicans plus democrats only.
