Can we get a breakdown of the 3+ hours of inactivity on January 6, 2021, too?

About a mile from my house, spotted a Kennedy/Shanahan bumper sticker. And the car was turning into a driveway. Truly takes all kinds, I guess.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Barron is 18, and has been involved in some shady shit with Martin Shkreli and "DJT" crypto-currency. No, truly. But the intent would be to simply arrest him for a time, simply to troll everyone. And then make a point that maybe who is on the SCOTUS is important.

I have learned of some very questionable deductions my dad used to take on his taxes.

Pretty much, he'd need to get a new Judiciary Act through Congress, and good luck with that one. FDR's idea to pack the court was a legitimate threat because he had both houses of Congress on his side. Biden, not so much.

I mean, it would still be illegal, technically, but he just couldn't be punished for it. My other idea is to order Barron Trump arrested, just for the trolling effect it would have. To be clear, release him again in under 24 hours, but make your point.

This bit about "when they go low, we go high" is getting frustrating, to say the least.

Me, old enough to remember when America recoiled at Nixon telling David Frost, "it's not illegal if the President does it."

Add "public release of the tax returns of Donald J. Trump, the Trump Organization, all Trump children and their spouses and any other place that Trump money might be hiding" to the list of official acts that Biden might take here.

Well, one news org has the main story correct here
During Thursday's debate, former president Donald Trump was repeatedly asked whether or not he would accept the results of the 2024 presidential election. Trump has repeatedly falsely claimed the 2020 election was rigged and that he defeated Joe Biden. wapo.st/4bmL0Uw

Man, I cut away from the debate to baseball and it's Angels 5, Tigers 0? Maybe this country really is falling apart.

By the way, call this out for what it is: pure fear-mongering

Next debate, if you don't even attempt to answer the question in the first 30 seconds, your mic gets cut off and they give all your remaining time to your opponent. And he must address the question within the first 30 seconds.

Seriously, somebody fact-check this statement
