Yeah, problem is it’s still 16 months until Election Day, and 18 until the next Congress is seated. That’s a lot of time for this current government to continue to do harm. I really wish we had recall elections at the national level.

I suppose the one meager upside is that this stone is now tied around Vance’s neck, too, for the next presidential election.
No, she pretends to be a RINO, but toes the Republican line whenever it actually matters.
She’s a Republican?
I’m more concerned about the general. She’s a wannabe centrist Republican, so if she looses the primary, it’d probably be to a MAGA hardliner. At least they’d be honest with where stand, but I don’t like those positions.
On the other hand, if they did vote for impeachment, call them and tell them to keep up the good fight.
Replied to the wrong person, it was supposed to be in reply to the person that was complaining that MTG use to stand for Magic: The Gathering for 20 years before the rise of the representative from Georgia.
Yeah, she ruined Magic the same way the terrorists in Iraq and Syria ruined the name of Archer’s spy organization, ISIS. (Also the name of Catwoman’s favorite cat, and an ancient Egyptian goddess.)
Germany didn’t choose hydrogen because of its greater lifting capacity, they had to use it because the US was the only country at the time with industrial quantities of helium, and they weren’t exporting it. The Hindenburg was originally planed to use helium, but once the Zeppelin Company resigned themselves to having to use hydrogen, they added addition passenger staterooms to take advantage of the excess lift capacity.
God do we need to move away from first past the post so when we get into these situations, a new party can be formed without fear of splitting the vote and handing the election to the other end of the spectrum.
She has a reputation for sharing the wealth, tipping wait staff with $100 bills, and giving the truck drivers for her tour $100,000 bonuses.
Unfortunately, the contingency plan is going to be “Give more money to Boeing and Lockheed Martin,” and we saw how that went with Starliner.
The problem is SpaceX has the best product around, and it’s not even close. Falcon 9 launches are so much cheaper than anything that ULA has offered that it’s not even funny. They weren’t even looking in to reusable boosters until SpaceX made it a standard practice in their system. For station cargo flights, Cygnus is an option, but it can’t bring anything back the way Cargo Dragon can. For manned missions, the only other option would be Boeing Starliner, and I don’t think anyone else is ready to call that operational.
Yes, SpaceX has a near monopoly at this point, but for once I don’t think it’s from any underhanded business practices, it’s just they were willing to innovate when the legacy space carriers were coasting along on government contracts. Once NASA, the DOD, the intelligence agencies deemed the Falcon as reliable, the only reasons ULA stayed in business was the government’s desire for a second launch provider for contingencies, and the occasion payload that was too big for Falcon.
Yeah, unfortunately, there’s no one in the line of succession I particularly like. At least RFK is #12 and Linda McMahon is #16, both pretty far down.
Thanks, now I’m actually hoping Pfizer’s lobbying team is able to sway government policy.
Bernie’s being doing some rallies with her recently. If I were to guess, Bernie’s not going to run for POTUS again, he’s going to endorse her.
I don’t. I’d like to see us moving away from tipping culture in general, and this would make it harder.
A Jewish Senator sponsored the resolution to block further weapons sales, so at least some people are able to separate the Jewish religion from the Israeli government.
