  1. I suspect that's what John Robert's keeps telling the hard conservative 3: At somepoint, a Democratic president is going to tell the court "You enforce your decision, because I won't"
  2. The new Congress is sworn in on January 3. So if the Dems win control and their is a contested election, then in theory Jefferies would become acting president. But the Presidential Succession Act is a hot mess constitutionally, so the Supreme Court could rule both the Speaker and President Pro Tempore ineligible and it would fall to.....Anthony Blinken, if he had not resigned as Secretary of State, since cabinet officials don't technically lose their job at noon on inauguration, but rather by tradition resign (in lieu of being fired).
  3. It is if you are talking about Washington, DC. When you come in to DCA from the North, you fly over some of the wealthiest enclaves in America.
  4. It's super common for Officers. I had an in law who had to spend a miserable year in the Pentagon to get in his time as a Navy O-5 for retirement purposes. He hated living in DC away from the water, but as he described it "it's this bullshit everyone has to do to retire at a higher pay grade." He wanted to leave after his last shipboard command. I think he basically was fetching coffee and pulling chairs for Admirals. It's a paperwork thing.
  5. Even though this has been asked an answered multiple times: Walz achieved the rank of Command Sergeant Major prior to retirement, however he didn't complete some associated course and paper work prior to retirement, so he technically retired as a Sergeant Major. His bio described him as "Command Sergeant Major" which is correct, however at some point it also referenced him as a retired Command Sargent Major, which is wrong. It's been updated. The rest of the attacks are Swift Boat bullshit from JD Vance (who was a press specialist in Iraq for 6 months, i.e. Private Joker) that he retired prior to his unit deploying, even though his unit hadn't received orders and his Unit Commander signed off on the retirement and didn't have to. If this is something that is going to make you not vote for Harris, you never were.
  6. Are you guys getting your Soros money? I haven’t seen a check in weeks!
  7. Not only did the primary, but Organizing for America became the defacto DNC and Obama basically let the actual DNC rot under Debbie Wasserman Schultz. The party is still recovering from the malfeasance.
  8. I mean, let’s be frank, it’s pretty impressive.
  9. Laura Bush killed someone with a car.
  10. This is quite the 80s/90s basketball deep cut.
  11. Reminds me of my grandfather, who grew up poor as fuck in central Texas, and had to hunt for food. He always said the only guns a man needs are a .30-06 and a 20 gauge. He eventually became a .270 guy, but he maintained his convention that owning more than a couple of guns made you weird AF.
  12. I don’t want to force field this thing, but the DC area is in a drought and could use the rain.
  13. Don’t football my cloakroom!!!
  14. It’s hard to overstate how lost in the wilderness the GOP is going to be after Trump is gone. There is zero bench: Couch Fucker? lady heels DeSantis? Hot Wheels? Sleepy Tim Scott? Dog Shooter?
  15. By the time this gets deadlocked at the FEC and works its way through the courts, we are going to be game planning 2032 election.
  16. If he doesn't commute federal death row to life on his way out the door, I will never forgive him.
  17. This was a little too oddly specific for my taste.
  18. You say that like your Passenger Princess (TM) and kids passing out for 2 hours while you get jacked up on Dew and knock out some serious mileage to Charley Crockett is a bad thing.
  19. He's on the ticket unless he resigns. VP is the only person Trump can't fire.
  20. This look was my fucking jam back in the day.
