He does not. He expresses concern. About the mission.
Not at all.
You just understood what I am struggling to get my juniors to understand.
To me it sounds like the 2 justice solution is a placation strategy over a necessity
now we have a scotus discussion going on ... couldn't we put that in <#771201281024458802> ?
Zulu, I might be projecting my own concern here, but are you having second thoughts about this life?
Republicans will not pack the court though Democrats absolutely will eroding any trust in our Democratic process not only to Amercian citizens but also our dealings abroad...more bans of American think tanks, councils, forums, NGOs, ect. The world is in an era of contraction and with the dark side of US corruption exposed, a fallacy internationally as the intera aspect is now alienating. A coup in someone elses yard can always be justified, but a coup within your own ranks? Detrimental.
@Doc Some years ago, I had a therapist dance around that very issue for like 20 minutes. Finally I stopped playing the game and just just confronted it outright. She seemed a little miffed, if anything...but maybe I was just gloating in the moment for having figured it out.
!
@Zuluzeit That therapist was probably either dumber or less brave than you. Very unbecoming for a therapist.
and relevant to the scotus discussion is that fact that the Democrats can only pack the court if they control both houses of Congress and the Presidency in order to change the number ... and if they might very well control both houses if Trump fanatics in GA get their way https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/26/trump-conspiracies-georgia-senate-440776
Amazing
How do you know Republicans will not pack the courts in retaliation ?
(they'd be idiots not to)
They will
I want to be one of them; I hear they get good perks
But if it’s “packed “ to a balance there would be less of a motivation to
meh
I disagree
well yes, there would be less
Could start a precedent to keep the court balanced
but not enough less
"well, HAL, I feel that doubt is with me constantly, and I agree that those were odd circumstances. How do you feel about this yourself?"
Also, Verily pulling from Beijing due to biologics and MindRay is like ex NSA victim shaming...a Mork and Mindy episode, actually. Nanu-nanu.
:vomit:
@Doc She was a good person. I felt bad for her for most of the year I knew her. She did help me though, for sure. I am not easy to work with. I knew when we were done. Haven't seen a therapist since then.
I don't want balance between politically motivated judicial activists and non-activists
the activists must go
I don't want to set a new norm
I want to _destroy_ it
the SC is a 9umvirate
as long as they espouse judicial activism, they are taking over the role of the legislatures
