What incentive do the Democrats have to drop the filibuster for it? The SAVE Act passed the House last year and they've sat on it since.

Didn't Baen do a whole line of sci-fi novels on that...?

I thought the previous episode was a very good night of Star Trek. But yeah, going into *this* well early isn't a good sign, even if it was well done!

(Indeed, much like how passage of the Affordable Care Act dragged the Democratic Party into oblivion for the better part of a decade)

Yes, but "paramilitary police" is extremely popular with Stephen Miller, who does not give a rat's ass about political survival and perfectly happy to drag the Republican Party into oblivion so long as he can get his paramilitary police.

The legislative equivalent of Dems getting any of this would be Republicans getting Dem majorities to agree to roll back ACA provisions in 2012 and Barack Obama signing the bill

That is something Mitch McConnell was unable to do with majorities in both chambers and a Republican president

Nah, I'm talking about the claim for relief, not The Court's logic to award the claim for relief.

All I recall is that somehow Boba Fett becomes The Mayor and he tells the friendly local street gang don't do drugs and stay in school, before they fight off whomever was trying to blow up the local Youth Center.

The series where after the 4th episode, it felt like they got bored and decided to give us the season premiere of the third season of The Mandalorian instead.

Wasn't a big point of Heller to, uh, not allow what Pirro is suggesting?

Yeah not every episode of Star Trek Voyager Season 5 is a banger, but those episodes are almost all *watchable* and so when one is cringe, you can skip it and not feel like you're missing much.

Bluntly, I do not think the people who are incapable of hiding the fact that the President shits himself in public, while the cameras are rolling, in the Oval Office while he's behind the Resolute Desk are capable of secretly overthrowing the results of 60%+ simultaneous elections in the US.

And the Center can pay for it by selling tickets to witness pry-down day.

Wasn't he a Jeff Sessions guy who outlasted his original patron? Like he just wasn't all that highly ranked to start off.

I painted up the new Captain Titus. After reading about his adventures in the War for Novamangor, I just had to prioritize him! And luckily, he's a surprisingly fun mini to paint.

If you're going for Ultramarines, get yourself the new Terminator Calgar. That model is an absolute joy and wonder to paint. I've done two in the past two months and loved every minute of it.

To the extent the story moves forward, the 7th Company doesn't have much of an explicit role, so you've got plenty of room to go nuts.

23.01.2026 16:28 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

No, the 500 Worlds lore doesn't change who is in charge of the 7th Company. The only lore retcon is that instead of being the Ultramarines, Scythes of the Emperor, and 8 new Primaris Chapters; the 10 Shields of Ultramar are now mostly pre-existing chapters plus a few new ones.
