  1. it was good reasoning, its bullshit right wing narrative of 'poorly reasoned decision' that has been absorbed whole cloth
  2. the actual logical conclusion to "term ends but it doesn't create a vacancy" is that the position is eliminated, not that the incumbent can serve indefinitely. but that requires judges to not be hacks. all proof positive that elected judges are no different than unelected judges.
  3. ive said it before and ill say it again: the legislature is the most powerful of the co-equal branchs by design and yet they're doing everything they fucking can to be anything but be the least powerful.
  4. shame that Congress may not at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations regarding The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives,
  5. The VRA passed nearly unanimously through congress and objectively has a strong constitutional, historical, and legal foundation and John Roberts still gutted it, the idea of codification of any law will make a material difference is pure fantasy given the extremism of the court. the answer once and forever remains court reform (but this is still good from a political point of view)
  6. So I love the halo lore, and have read several of the books and I gotta say after 3 episodes: it’s not great am I late to the party? Yes.
  7. Kagan is a nerd for procedural stuff and doesn’t have the fire that sotomayor does. to put it in terms of stereotypes, it really is white women vs firey Latina types
  8. There’s nothing in the constitution about freedom of travel or anything related. The only saving grace may be kavs concurrence where Roberts would be sure to join blocking this nonsense but that’s not written in stone by any means
  9. What if someone just happens to leave a briefcase full of “not money” and they just leave it there? It would be irresponsible to just let any old person pick it up and run with a bunch of “not money”
  10. Yep. My wife’s OB has alluded that if she were to get pregnant again she may bleed out during birth. Not a risk we’re willing to take. I’m getting my vasectomy soon but it won’t fully take until November. I’m glad that in Virginia we’re safe for now should it happen but we’re not unique and there are others not as fortunate as we are
