This is the most cursed Witches of Eastwick remake I could ever imagine

This is a pretty safe bet. But this DoJ also seems to have a problem remembering that defense also gets to request info in discovery, and it keeps biting them in the ass, so who knows

Like. Im pretty sure that a large majority of Senate Dems do want to abolish the filibister the next time they have a trifecta. My source? A bunch of behind the scenes reporting from Bidens first year. I wouldn be suprised if a lot of people didnt take that seriously

Man I hate how so much important political information is "blink and youll miss it" type stuff

Schatz has been posting some dumb shit on Twitter, but Im unsure if its bc hes cooked his brain or hes just playing to the avg poster on that site.

Murray or Cantwell would probably be a safe pair of hands until the midterms, but theyre not going to excite anyone.

The biggest thing Schumer has going for him is that 4 or 5 out of the 6 senators most likely to replace him are no better or worse than him

Being a WASP who worked in government and had a first name like "Elbridge" used to fucking mean something, man. Look at how far my hereditary elites have fucking fallen

Love how we gave up anywhere between a 20 and a 40 year lead on the technology of the future

"The Catholic Church wants to replace nation-states with a one world order" is dumb hick Protestant propoganda, but "Catholics view the nation-state in the same way orthodox Marxists do, as a thing which will eventually wither away," is not too far from the truth.

Oh it absolutely is. The closest we'll ever get to the planned del Toro Hobbit movies

Theres a very sweet little novella by Alan Bennet about Queen Elizabeth II randomly picking up a literary book one day and slowly learning to love all sorts of literature, and the effect it has on her personality

Oh God, for a moment I thought "Why did Denver Riggelman join USDA..."

This is in fact, very dumb, but its only become a problem recently as everything else in the normal order of running things all break down at once, and even passing a normal spending bill itself becomes nearly impossible

Bc apparently Jimmy Carters AG was looking over the Constitution one night (as one does), and decided that he found a provision (which no one heretofore had seen) that required Congress to seperately authorise the Executive to issue debt in addition to normal apppropriation bills.

Youre basically talking equal odds he ends up Atheist But Spiritual, Bad Christian, Good Christian, Mahayana Buddhist, or Ba'hai. Each of those has an exact 20% chance of happening

Im sorry Jason, no one really cares about you enough to repress you
