Sounds exciting. What a time to be alive.

These are the three companies competing to land humans on the moon: Next year, NASA will down select to two companies, and they will be awarded contracts to land humans in the 2024-2025 timeline. All three companies have ambitious plans, with strengths and weaknesses pointed out in several different articles. But the plan would work like this: The Human Landing System (HLS) would be launched separately (and on commercial rockets) to the moon from the actual humans. The crew would launch from the Space Shuttle derived SLS launcher aboard the Orion capsule (both NASA owned and operated) and meet up in lunar orbit with the lander. The crew would transfer to the lander, perform their mission on the lunar surface, and then return to the SLS capsule in lunar orbit. The lander would stay in lunar orbit, and the capsule would return to Earth.

Those were the rules posted upthread. Each party gets 5 justices.

This is probably one the best things the Dems could do once they regain power. Also repeal the apportionment act.

There are a few problems creating a law that says party X gets to appoint 5 justices, and party Y gets to appoint 5 justices: 1. It codifies those two parties into law. That would create a precedent for sure. 2. What happens if one of those parties ceases to exist? Parties have come and gone in the past - but this law would still give power to a party that is extinct or at least crippled. 3. The remaining party in power would have no urgency in rewriting the law giving the new party any power in choosing Supreme Court Justices.

I undo my belt and unzip my pants (while standing, of course) to re-tuck my shirt. Laying down doing it makes absolutely no sense, because as soon as you sit up, the back of your shirt becomes untucked.

Nah. Rotate the courts.

Biden likes the idea of cycling judges from the district courts to Supreme Court. This is likely doable with simple legislation, and a lot less destructive than court packing.

Germans are not as touchy-feely and smoochy-smoochy like some of the neighbors.

It's getting tiring hearing quite a few of my coworkers saying "It will be nice when coronavirus is no longer an issue after November 3rd.". I'm glad that the entire western world is participating in this Democratic hoax to vote out Trump. /s

My Vietnamese friend from the Navy who lives in Orange County voted for Biden, but voted pretty much straight ticket GOP on the rest of the ballot.

Hopefully this is motivation for people who are unlikely voters to go and vote for Biden in the next 8 days.

NYS will put him on home arrest though!

If anything, Donald Trump running in 2024 would split the GOP vote (because it's unlikely he would win the nomination for the party) just like Roosevelt did in 1912 - leading to a Democratic landslide. The best bet for the GOP would be for the entire Trump family to be in prison and Trumpism dead as a movement by 2024.

With only 1 full week left before election day, and having 60 million(!) people already voted, the chances of any October surprise make a difference in the outcome of the election one way or another are pretty small. BUT I still hope the supposed Apprentice tape makes it out before the election.

There is no law against running for President if you are in Prison. Eric Trump should take notes.

While Biden is making campaign trips to places like Georgia because they are in play for the Democrats... ...Trump is making campaign trips to places like Nebraska because he is doing so shitty he's barely hanging on in deep red states.

My daughter was good sport for her 10th birthday a few weeks ago. No friends. No relatives. We didn't even go out to eat. We did get her some presents she really wanted, and had breakfast, lunch and dinner delivered to the house, and she had a nice ice cream birthday cake as well.

We will have a TOP COP president. Tear gas for everyone!

This wouldn't be an issue in the UK!

I had to do a double take because I thought you wrote "retard" instead of "reread".

Isn't the current welfare program set up to get you to the poverty line already?

Right. But it truly needs to be universal. No qualifiers. It doesn't matter how much money you make - you get a check.
