The swift and lawful prosecution of every high ranking member of this current lawless regime can and should be the central theme of every upcoming election.

By a Veto-Proof Majority the House and Senate need to pass a bill that any Presidential Pardon for current or past members of any administration require a 2/3 Congressional Vote to become valid.

Does NOT remove pardon power, just provides a reasonable check.
I’m hoping they show this Hegseth post at his sentencing hearing.

The 3 hours spent this afternoon at my local used book store included Bourbon.

If yours didn't, please lodge appropriate complaints.

Just finished 1929 by @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social and as an Historical Economist I have some issues. But as a reader, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Might do a thread at some point, but haven't really used this space for that kind of thing here before.

Most of the disinformation I generate is to placate my own anxiety.

After living apart for over three years, my wife and I finally called it quits.

Nobody cheated.

But the slow motion rending of my soul had to come to stop. And the healing had to begin.

Mark Kelly, AOC, Pete Buttigieg, Bernie... all represent the "Tough as Leather" liberal that is emerging to lead.

Anyone who asks me to "Take it on Faith" is waving a red flag.

Faith presumes something is true and then twists facts to support it.

Reason begins from facts and infers what is likely true with room for revision.

It is the fundamental incentive toward every owner in a capitalist structure to extract the maximum value (profit) from their business. This means maximizing revenue and minimizing cost. That's not evil until it grows to include enough employees that their welfare is just another "cost"
