i think we are good

Only reason India hasn’t attacked them.

Yeah... they even had a coup

@AdamS that is their real function

to protect from invasion

Deterrent

thats why iran wants them so bad

and NK

And Saudia Arabia

so we cant uhh free the people from a dangerous tyrant

Saudi Arabia has the US they dont need nukes

They don’t need them but they want them...MBS is a real nutter

youre either within the general political grouping of 'the west'

or you have nukes

or you are prone to invasion

War is peace?

sorry

prone to peacekeeping efforts following a popular democratic revolution

i misspoke

Treason?

Who said that?

I doubt they are talking secession

Probably a right wing version of the popular vote compact

Which is political theater because the only states to sign onto such a thing would go red anyway

Ive been out of the loop all day. But it looks like that everything is done. The nutty cases that were trying to overturn the will of the people have been denied Cert......

Is this is? Can we now get about the business of Adulting and look forward, address CoVid, pass a Stimulus and stop the nonsense?
Or are there some other craziness going on?

I'm picturing this nuke impossibility talk translated into a pre WWI roundtable discussion. Lol. Impossible.

You know us red coats...

Hmm the navy says they replaced all the trident 1s with trident 2s that has 8 × W88 475 kt but we signed a treaty to keep only 8 of the biggies 🤷

@Dedkraken eh you just need enough to scare people, probably cheaper and less costly to maintain that way

This is the one time I am very happy to have an EXTREMELY Conservative Supreme Court... and since not a single Justice wrote a dissent, we can assume that they were laughing as hard as I was about the legitimacy of those stupid lawsuits.

The supreme court should be extremely conservative

Legislating from the bench is a nono

Trumps always got a crazy backup Jordan 😂

Who was not laughing?@JD~Jordan

Well given that the SCOTUS declined to even accept Cert... they didnt legislature from the bench. If they felt that the lower courts had done so then they would have grander Cert and we would have an opinion.

But we dont

@JD~Jordan yeah that has nothing to do with my statement

LOL, this Uncivil Law guy is a trip. "Do you think Biden and the Democrats are following the law? If you want them to follow the law, you should follow the law"...

"When I am weak I ask you for mercy, because that is according to your principles. When I am strong, I give none, because that is according to mine".

Because the Texas case was crap.... the Kelley case was crap (tho slightly less stinky - nonetheless crap)

@DrSammyD yeah the 'principled loser' schtick of the gop is getting old
