Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.

I’ve encountered more intelligent boxes, if we’re being fair, too.

If you've been okay with Trump's lies, crimes, and abuses of power but all of a sudden have a problem now that he's raised your gas bill, you need to get over your narcissism and wake the heck up.

I think the bigger security risk is the gestapo she runs that murders people for standing in the street and kidnaps children to put them in concentration camps. But sure, if the shoe thing gets her shitcanned, do what you gotta do.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

They announce nonsense that is demonstrably false all the time.

So, if I have this correct, the republicans AREN'T pushing culture war points extra hard to make sure that's where eyes and arguments are centrally placed?

To, oh, I don't know, potentially cause infighting amongst our own? Because...*gestures broadly*

It can be both, you know. You do know?

So is this saying that the Republicans don't consider it as one? Because, frankly, they DO feel it's a valid use of resources to prop up the culture fight so they can gut things that affect a larger portion of the population. Is that right? No. Is it a tactic? Uh...yes?

But there is unfortunately no mechanism for this to occur.

I finally saw a topic / industry I could go "Ooooooh, I can speak to this one" and so many others already have that I can't even find joy in it. Maybe it's just Friday evening before a long weekend, though.

This reeks of someone who hasn't been within 15 miles of the ACEC industry.

He voted against it because it wouldn't have mattered. He's as complicit as anyone who voted yes.

You're such a dolt you don't even understand which parts of this bill are MORE concerning than that; they effectively gave themselves the power to never have oversight, and with that, they'll gut everything more.

Jesus Christ you're an uneducated fuckwit.

Why aren't you mentioning this from the bill?

"No court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or temporary restraining order if no security was given when the injunction or order was issued…."

Stop, you might hurt his poor wittle feelings so he hides inside more and refuses to acknowledge constituents valid points.

Also, that's a fucking laughable thing to advocate for when you claim to be for working people. Like, who uses that airport primarily, Jared?

Jared, you're so fucking ignorant to the things you talk about it's amazing you can even type a sentence. And a WGME link? Fucksake, it's clear to anyone paying attention that you don't deserve your place in government. You talk about this when Noem doesn't know what habeas corpus is?

Sure, but, and I’m not sure if this will be a surprise; the bastards don’t give a fuck and actively want to see continual wedges driven between ‘ordinary’ people - lest everyone finally realize we’re being continually rug pulled by oligarchs.

Hey @golden.house.gov - you should probably consider this. But, nah, let’s just…do the opposite.
