And indeed! They're still rambling about all the stuff that doesn't matter.

That’s gonna make so many people mad

Dumb it down a bit...i misplaced my latin decoder ring in my other jacket. Lol

Not appealing to authority as an argument. Appealing to we are moderators and admins trying to keep things out of touchy topics that Discord doesn't like and could get the server removed. If you want to have an argument, that is one thing, but this wasn't me arguing or not wanting to. This is me saying we aren't having that discussion.

@Doc I am not arguing with you. I am telling you that we are not discussing that topic here.

Dude. Move on

Dude. Move on

Can acb still get outvoted? Geez ...i hope she doesn't.

@Doc we are not looking to discuss this here. It was starting cross a line. Drop it.

Nah, we had 51 yesterday and then a Dem got sick of the bs and made a public announcement she'd be voting *FOR* the confirmation so that gave us 52.

That's great news.

I think yesterday it was like 51-47.

So today it should be 52-whatever they end up with.

Sorry, those got reversed. My Discord is being wonky.

Discord has the hiccups right now

Great, it isn't me...

Oh yeah? That's good to know. I thought it was just my internet being all bumpkins again. lol

It's discord... i had to restart my app too.

Got ya.

> I think yesterday it was like 51-47.
This is cutting it a bit close...yikes.

Obviously it isn't because she isn't qualified for the job.

It is, but it’s to be expected given the circus they’ve made of the past two confirmations.

They don’t want people to pay attention to their real “precedent” from their own party in a situation like this.

What's the "precedent"?

Her qualifications.

Super precedent 😉

"Orange" precedent?

Check out Abe Fortas from 1968. Not to plug myself, but I’ve been working on a video compiling it all for perspective for two weeks already. It’s my first real project so it’s taking a long time but it’s nuts to compare the two situations.

I can give you all the major players and such to help you narrow it down but the parallels are insane and when I heard Harris invoke “honest Ane” I was like well yeah, cause the truth is A Tale of TWO Abes.

He was a well-respected attorney from the case of Gideon vs. Wainwright and confirmed a Justice in ‘65 by Johnson. In ‘67 Johnson then confirmed Marshall.

In June of ‘68, the Chief Justice wanted to retire so he warned Johnson to fill his spot to keep a potential Nixon nomination.

Johnson pusher Fortas forward as nominee for Chief, opening himself up a FOURTH seat nomination.

Then Fortas went before the committee of his own volition and, under oath now, had to admit to some ethical questions.

He admitted to still having regular meetings with the President, disclosing Court discussions during those meetings, and took money from former partners and clients who might have cases come before him.

I think the honest abe thing harris left out the fact that it took time for people to go back and forth to washington. Transportation back then wasn't as good.
