The Senate Republicans can confirm Eric Trump’s horse to the bench of they want to, but it’s important to find some reason to be mad at Democrats about this
If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench

I see a lot of people are having trouble with the idea that “Dem senators can’t unilaterally block nominees” is not an identical statement to “Dem senators have no ability to influence nominations whatsoever”

The problem is not the pardon power. The problem is us. We weren't supposed to elect a crook as POTUS. If we did, the people we elected in Congress are supposed to do something about it. We're idiots, so we've elected crooks & cowards all the way up the line.
Giving the president the pardon power was a mistake. The most corrupt president in American history is conducting a jailbreak for his fellow criminals.

The problem is us. We need to fix us.

I think some democrats should probably say forthrightly that though Hegseth among others deserves impeachment and removal, the process is broken because the republican majority has forsaken their duties to the country, and pursuing it would risk misinforming the country that acquittal = innocence.
Mark Warner, the top Dem on the Senate Intelligence Committee, says he reviewed the DOD IG's Signalgate report and Pete Hegseth either needs to be fired or resign.

Ohio State victories are a moral evil because nobody is happy afterwards. If you give Alabama fans an undefeated season and their workhorse back a Heisman they'll at least feel satisfaction. These guys win as a double-digit favorite and want the Detroit Lions to apologize for once firing their DC.

i don't give a shit about the Lions, contra this dickhead
okay I'm going to go be an involved father and a respectable professional here and step away from the computer but man oh man does it feel cathartic to watch your alma mater beat their rated rival, after a four year losing streak, by doing the exact same shit they always do to you. I feel...relaxed?

it was *so* weird to feel actually relaxed when they got up 3 scores, but it's been 6 years!
