There are limits to how fast we can do this, partly legal structure and the other, small people with the accumulated wealth of entire countries who will work against that change as a challenge to their “authority”

Trump forgets when he was was POTUS:

Or that he’s in meeting on TV:

Should charge Whitehouse staff with elder abuse at this point

The bigger problem is the amount of resistance anyone will face when trying to change elections, as there has been so much distrust sown in the system and how it benefits those in power. Small steps to start so we might have something left by the time the boomers die off.

Better enough than what we have that it’s already got someone in office that wasn’t part of the establishment and they’re failing to repeal it. It’s not perfect, but it’s a start.

Need to replace first past the post voting with something like ranked choice voting to even have a chance at 3rd party winning elections

Successful enough in Alaska that they’ve already tried to repeal it.

Yet he would not allow the the recall and court martial of Mike Flynn despite his acceptance of a pardon… and we have Hegseth trying to do that to Sen. Mark Kelly,
Captain US Navy (ret) and Astronaut, for reminding the military not to follow illegal orders.

They definitely have contributed to putting more shit in the streets…

SCOTUS’ “intervention” with the hanging chad shit is Florida over W Bush didn’t help either, given the governor was his brother and the secretary of state of Florida was the W Bush campaign manager…

Should look into heat exchange ventilation and mini splits to take advantage of the tighter UK homes and allowing for AC as the climate changes.

The process to get that shit started is the same and it was a member of Congress that actually started calling for the 25th amendment to be used

Sanctions against the American billionaires backing Trump. Prevent American corporations and private equity from investing or owning in the EU. The only language these people speak is money, so hit where it hurts

So put the fucking bill forward, and make them go on the record refusing to let it hit the floor or voting against impeachment.

As a vet form a family of vets… pretty sure both my grandfathers and my father would have buried me in the backyard if I had thought about what Hegseth has done

They are bigger because the population of those cities is bigger, increasing the statistical probability that they are going to do something stupid and have to face the consequences.
