They don't want Biden in, as a person who used to specialize in research on this they want to prep a narrative for the fall of a technically illegitimate election. It's not a move to stop it, it's a move to delegitimize.

The last time we were in NYC my daughter got a rainbow bagel from Utopia bagels with Oreo cream cheese and it was a LOT. There was like an entire cheesecake on that bagel 😂

My cat just vomited up the expensive prescription diet she just inhaled right back into her food bowl, came back 10 min later, and ate it again. She didn’t even leave a mess. I have to give it to her, honestly, for saving me money in this economy 10/10

Bernie getting around to all those 4th parades in one day is a feat akin to Santa claus delivering on Xmas eve. Does he have a magic sleigh??

Oh yeah the ignorance that the house and senate are different and that the president can’t overturn roe v wade…yikes It is pretty embarrassing how much 90% of Americans get wrong about basic structure. (New Americans who had to pass the Civics test for citizenship excluded! They know their shit)

You can’t just teach the foundational docs though- the modern administrative state is 1000% more complex than our (somewhat vague) constitution. We have an education problem but the way our gov works is SO complicated. We need better media that can explain the background & public trust in media.

There would have been 72 hours of breathless “wow Biden biffed it” coverage and in two weeks no one would remember it. Just keep sending Newsom out to buff everything up. But no, a lot of people I thought were smarter than that have some FOMO I suppose & piled on.

The exigencies of the whole situation (congress, public opinion largely, AIPAC, etc) I think lean towards none of the likely replacements doing much better. Maybe Whitmer. None of the rest though. The shiny new candidates lose their sheen pretty fast.

Yeah but they should take random year long breaks in between seasons and half seasons just to extend the suspense and irritation about the ending.

Ah but the devil is in the details. What’s an official act you might ask? 🤷‍♀️ could be anything you do while president! Tada, “official!!” Did the court offer any help to lower courts in determine what constitutes an official act? Hell no.

He just likes to be paid attention to. Give him a nice little project as VP- coast guard veterans support? Give him lots of boat photo ops. Done. (Actually typing this out made me hyperventilate though 😬)
