Reminder from a Pittsburgher who was at one point Mr. Rogers neighbor: “Look for the helpers” was intended to be advice for his usual audience, children. We’re grown ups now. We’re supposed to be the helpers.

This guy with full immunity for “official acts,” plus the unlimited ability to pardon any official who would implement such orders = “limited government” Republican style.

I already invite people on X to join us here weekly. But thanks to this analysis, I've decided to re-create my "scientists who do climate" list here this summer, and manually invite each of the 3,000 members on X to join us. If you're still on X, pls consider inviting your followers to join us too!

The floodgates are open to expand this secret police state. This is exactly how the Russian satellite GDR (East Germany) kept their boot on the necks of citizens. Have them spy on each other. Punish people who failed to spy. No one is safe. They even had grade schoolers betraying their parents.

We already have that here in Texas.

AG Ken Paxton, Guv Abbott, Lt. Guv Dan Patrick (born Dannie S. Goeb) & our trumplican state sens & reps have created the Texas Stasi.

Neighbors, et al, can spy on neighbors for the state & get paid to do so.

She needs to file on Trump. As per precedent William W. Belknap was impeached on March 2, 1876 after he left office. Stop Trump now.

Are you in the US & a citizen? Drop whatever you’re doing & call your congressional rep & your senators. Tell your rep to file impeachment papers against Trump now. (Precedent: William W. Belknap March 2, 1876, a former federal officer was impeached after he left office). Next call your senators.

IKR? Earlier I was thinking the same thing. I tried to remember what it felt like that week before drumpf came down the elevator. That old feeling that, yeah, I might not like whoever was the next POTUS but I could ignore them if I didn’t. I mean; they couldn’t threaten our very existence…

Jennifer Finney Boylan describes her somewhat similar maturation in “She’s Not There”. Adults shouldn’t have to go through a second adolescence. We should’ve been allowed to do it right the first time. Cuteness aside. Too many don’t survive. That’s why it’s so important to protect Trans youth.

Por ejemplo: Boomer friend was sure she was straight. Cute attempts to conjure attraction to males even trying to identify her ‘new’ type. Then on 5/18/80 walked into a room where an average Butch smiled at her. Many have said it was at that exact moment Mt. St. Helens had its climactic eruption.

IDK about the latter. Cracked Eggs are naturally unpredictable. It may take years to claw out from under studiously protracted self-oppression & finally allow oneself permission to embark on the fearsome task of self-maturation usually reserved to the resilience of adolescence.

"The Court, for its part, has not deferred to an agency interpretation under Chevron since 2016." And that is supposed to reflect the incoherence of Chevron, as opposed to the fact that there was a major change to the Court's personnel in January 2016?

Nominee confirmations for the extra benches would cease in the senate. POTUS would try to do recess administrative appointments & might get a bunch seated. If Repugnakins control the senate whoever is the majority leader would never recess.

So to recap, SCOTUS says: * We justices are the executive branch now * The majestic equality of the laws prohibits both rich and poor alike from sleeping under bridges * Obstructing the certification of the president after an election is, at least in isolation, very cool and very legal
