No one is talking reform, if that's what you mean by "locked down" and it needs to happen. Let's start posting the vision of the possible next constitution and the needed revitalization of institutions.
I'll start with, "The executive cannot ever be granted immunity from prosecution".

Absolute blood-gargling psychopath. She's talking about drug runners at worst, more likely fishermen.
I was in Pakistan eight weeks after 9/11, then combat with al Qaeda fighters in Afghanistan in early 2002. Never heard anyone around me say anything similar with this level of maniacal earnestness.

Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."

Further, these kids who couldn’t read were born in late 80s and early 90s, prior to Internet/cell phones.
I’ve often thought that success of social media/phones was due to this generation of kids who were visual and did not read. So reverse causality - the non-readers flocked to the visual media

A high proportion of well-educated friends (M.S., Ph.D, both parents) had at least one child who could not read. Those offspring are in their 30s now, with careers in visual arts. A phenomenon that predates Covid by many years. Evidence suggests a biological factor;exposure to it has only grown

This is an extremely fucked up thread and stuff like this is radicalizing me to support outlawing not only AI, but probably smartphones and social media, too. Read it.
An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

Release of the redacted Epstein files does not scare our current leaders near as much as the concurrent loss of blackmail material against many in public life
The utter silence of both political parties in the face of atrocities will end once files released, as blackmail material is now public

Expectations regarding the Epstein files are too high. Either the discharge petition will not lead to release, or files released are redacted
Epstein files held by third parties will break the real news
T is not worried about redacted files- he is losing ability to blackmail much of Congress

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

So, after Senate votes in favor of this CR, the House has to approve it because it is different than the previous CR they approved, correct?

Colorado just passed two ballot measures to increase taxes (I’m oversimplifying, but that’s the practical effect) on people earning over $300,000 a year to fund a school meals program. $100,000,000 for kids to eat. Which is really how this should work.
