Hel takes her due from Oathbreakers, the sickly, and the elderly... so... he's up a creek.

Donald would never let the VP be a dude who could be the headline act. His ego needs someone so bland that it sets expectations low, so that he looks more impressive by comparison.

The only "Pillars of the Community" that can stick around anywhere are Preachers... and even the good ones need a few more Pillars to build things.

Mix in the moronic backlash to Integration... and you wind up without venues and third places to exist and socialize.

And what's under that is a lack of Community... because Jack Welch restructured our society to tear them apart.

Want to make more money? Gotta move to pick up a new job.

It forces constant churn in workplaces and neighborhoods... and that finished off the Third Places.

It's part of the Scream Wolf Effect the GOP exploits.

They howl "wolf" at institutions threatening boycott and punishment, then dont follow through in any real way.

That trains institutions to believe such threats are always toothless... so they tune it out.

Yeah... this is not the season to fuck around with thin margins. Rural Idaho had a 20% swing to the Blue Team... and that was just a couple months in.

Any value used for Pi is going to be an estimate, because it is an irrational and transcendental number. You will get some error from approximation on anything.

The important question is how much error your application can tolerate... and 3 is good enough for a surprising number of applications.

The Shipwrecked are already dead, their bodies just haven't gotten the memo yet. The Ocean WILL kill them in the absence of rescue or Odysseus's own luck. They are as far from the fight as it's possible to get.

Killing them is the clearest-cut case of slaughter that's possible.

Slaughtering the Shipwrecked is a different story.

The "vibe" of most Battlefield War Crimes is built around a intuitive concept: Do NOT slaughter men who are out of the fight.

Thanks to the War on Terror and Vietnam, there's now A LOT of scenarios where we strike people we aren't formally at war with. They should have been recognized as unconstitutional a long time ago.

This eroded the norms that would have inspired a stronger reaction.

Funny part: This keeps happening, and his brother keeps failing.

We need them all on the same day.

As it is, the losers of the first batch are structurally encouraged to drop out... functionally nullifying their voters' votes.

It should be one set of candidates on one day.

I dont think they plan that far ahead.

His insurance lawyer didnt think beyond getting an indictment returned, after all.

They expected their Keyboard Warriors to turn up eager to do the work. The problem is that they are either:

1. Not even in the United States,
2. Unwilling to do more than shitpost, or
3. Unable to do the Job competently.

A shocking amount of their "base" is just Trolls.

Honestly, their weakness is already showing: Manpower and Morale issues.

They can't get Lawyers at DOJ, they can't recruit enough folks for ICE, and Military Recruitment managed to find a new bottom after two decades of being habitually under quota.

Less that they've failed to make themselves heard, and more that the channels of communication have been flooded with the alternative.

Twitter is the best example. LITERAL content-farms in the Third World fighting to fill the site with rot.

Dude has Jesus's Own talent for escaping loaded questions by dropping a pithy third option.

My theory is that he wants the Files blasted out by the House.

If Congress runs this through the Court of Public Opinion (Impeachment), Donald gets to argue a irreparably tainted jury in a Criminal Trial. Even if the Courts don't let that stand... he can run out the clock.
November 23, 2025 at 8:12 AM
DOJ has to bring Perjury Charges.

All a Judge can do on their own is Contempt.

The Courts need an Enforcement Arm. Bit of a design flaw to have left it off.

SCOTUS isnt the Bar Association.

The Bar Association is the Lawyers of Washington DC. They are not a government agency, and are self-governing.

SCOTUS cannot review their decisions, outside of invoking the Civil Rights Law that SCOTUS has gutted.

The docs are cross referenced by the exhibits in the Court Records. Copies of those records are floating around every newsroom in the country.

They have very little room to move on this one.

Federal Criminal Charges require a Grand Jury Indictment.
