Estimate the odds for Dems winning the Senate in November. They HAVE to win all of these!

πŸ”΅ Michigan someone new

πŸ”΅ Georgia Ossoff in red Georgia

πŸ”΅ New Hampshire someone new

πŸ”΄ Maine Collins is the incumbent

πŸ”΄ North Carolina red state

πŸ”΄ Ohio red state

πŸ”΄ Alaska red state

This was predictable and predicted. Even if this had passed into law, he would have vetoed it.

Given that @schumer.senate.gov had NO chance of this passing (and he knew it) he should have at least failed trying to do the right thing: CALLING FOR IMPEACHMENT AND REMOVAL OVER AN ILLEGAL WAR!

...and an overt racist. Do not forget that. A legendary, overtly racist, college football coach.

That is all fine.

Obviously, Democrats are not in charge, so none of those will happen.

But will you still file for articles of her impeachment?

I wish there were some consequence for ICE's lawlessness.

I was told that the 2A was to address exactly such predicaments.

International Law is an interesting concept.

Who enforces it? International nations?

The part that gets me is β€œVery unclear if there'd be legal authority.” No certainty even in blatant situations.

They often seem to find loopholes galore.

Bad typo:

β€œSen. David McCormick, D-Pa., made a similar case.”

McCormick is a MAGAt.

Nope. No funding for ICE or Iran War.

Insufficient.

A vote they will likely lose legislatively or via a veto that cannot be overriden is meager.

Too meager.

No funding for the Iran War.

The high price of entry has knocked out a lot from entering the space. The secondary industries maybe where peasants can get in. Even then, the trillionaire feudal lords might pick and choose their vassals.

I fear it'll be a lot more concentrated.

The dotcom era produced a lot of millionaires and multimillionaires. Lots of noname companies went bust, but a few made it.

This time, only some big players can even play, and it will create a few trillionaires and centibillionaires.

Claude is fantastic.

The Kurds are idiots if they trust this asshole after how he abandoned them in his first term to face Russia, Turkey, and Bashar's Syria. After they fought with us against ISIS and Saddam.

What is mindboggling is that OpenAI is slated to have an IPO, is valued at $800 billion, and just got an infusion of $100 billion.

Never had a profitable year, and is bleeding double-digit billions a year.

The only legitimate response is to impeach and remove. Not one Democrat has called for it. A few Democrats have signalled that they will not curb his power by voting for the imminent War Powers Resolution.

@schumer.senate.gov is ready to water it down and say that "all we need is to be informed!"
