“The Senate adopted new precedents in the 2010s to allow a simple majority to end debate on nominations”
With a 53-47 split, and no filibuster on nominations, there’s no way to block it.
Nope.
Even if they repealed the 22nd Amendment, we don’t allow ex post facto laws, so the repeal wouldn’t apply to him.
United States Constitution
Article 1, Section 9, Clause 3
“No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.”Article 1, Section 10
“No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.”In case you’re wondering, “Bill of Attainder”:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_of_attainder
“an act of a legislature declaring a person, or a group of people, guilty of some crime, and providing for a punishment, often without a trial. As with attainder resulting from the normal judicial process, the effect of such a bill is to nullify the targeted person’s civil rights, most notably the right to own property (and thus pass it on to heirs), the right to a title of nobility, and, in at least the original usage, the right to life itself.”
Which is weird because:
Arizona - Right to Abortion. Yes 61 to 39
Colorado - Right to Abortion. Yes 62 to 38
Florida - Right to Abortion. No 43 to 57 - Needed Yes >= 60 to pass.
Maryland - Right to Abortion. Yes 74 to 26
Missouri - Right to Abortion. Yes 52 to 48
Montana - Right to Abortion. Yes 58 to 42
Nebraska - Right to Abortion. No 52 to 48
Nebraska - Prohibit abortions after 1st Trimester - Yes 55 to 45
Nevada - Right to Abortion. Yes 64 to 36
New York - Right to Abortion. Yes 62 to 38
South Dakota - Right to Abortion. No 59 to 41Except for Florida, Nebraska and South Dakota, looks like people do support womens rights.
Removed for civility, if you had dodged the ad hominem at the end you are 100% correct.
Zaddy energy…

I put the electric insert in one of mine, charged it in 2021… still works!
President and Senate are already called:
In the House it’s 216 R / 207 D with 218 needed for majority. We likely won’t know the full result for several days.
12 races left to call.
CA 9 - Leaning Democratic
CA 21 - Leaning Democratic
CA 47 - Leaning Democratic
ME 2 - Leaning Democratic
OH 9 - Leaning Democratic
OR 5 - Leaning Democratic - Called by local media.AK 1 - Leaning Republican
AZ 6 - Leaning Republican
CA 13 - Leaning Republican
CA 41 - Leaning Republican
CA 45 - Leaning Republican
IA 1 - Leaning RepublicanLooks like it’s going to end up 222 R to 213 D which is +2 for the Republicans and +1 for the Democrats, which makes sense because there had been 3 vacancies.
Better than Rick Scott I guess…

It’s 20% of people who cast valid ballots skipping those lines.
So they chose to vote for other things on the ballot, but skipped voting for mayor and city council, meaning they chose not to participate there.
In a state that regularly sees 60+% and 70+% participation, yeah, 20% skipping those lines is a big chunk. I don’t think we have final turnout numbers yet.
Clearly you are faking your outrage if you can’t spell “palestinian”. You’re rumbled. Banned for trolling.
No thanks, I already got one!
They send Israel weapons to defend themselves from attack by hostile forces. Israel has the right to do that.
If you want to blame Netanyahu for misappropriating defense supplies, that’s absolutely fair, but that’s NOT why Israel is being supplied.

“Let me be clear, I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself,” she said tonight. She said that Israelis should “never again” go through the horror and “unspeakable” attacks of Oct. 7.
“At the same time what has happened in Gaza in the past 10 months is devastating. So many innocent lives lost. The scale of suffering is heartbreaking,”
None of this is supporting genocide in any way, shape, or form. If you believe it is, please supply a source showing Biden or Harris giving free reign for Israel to do what they want.
You know, like this:

“They’re losing the PR war. They’re losing it big. But they’ve got to finish what they started, and they’ve got to finish it fast, and we have to get on with life.”
Oh, wait, no, that’s Trump.

Books are a little different because of the shared* language.
*except Québec.
So, back in the day they used a really simple camera trick called a double exposure.
