“No Confidence Vote” like in a parliamentary system.

It’s not a check and balance when the Executive has gone rogue and the Justice Department operates under the Executive.

There is no check. There is no balance.

Remove the Justice Department from the Executive branch and place it under the Judicial branch.

Similarly, there’s no check and balance on the Supreme Court either.

Make it so that the House and Senate can over-ride a bad Supreme Court decision without having to pass an Amendment to do it.

It’s rock-paper-scissors, guys. President can veto the House and Senate, the Judicial should hold the executive accountable, and the House and Senate should be able to over-ride the Supreme Court.

“Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this ‘bullshit,’ hook, line, and sinker,” Trump wrote in a missive on Truth Social. “They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years."

“I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax,” he wrote. “Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore!”

I used to commute between Portland and Chicago, 2 weeks here, 2 weeks there, 1 week here, 2 weeks there… back and forth. Did that for a year…

It was not unusual to wake up and not immediately know where I was.

“Communities”? Like Texas?

Calls his supporters “weaklings”. Bold move, let’s see how that works out…

Nobody does, the problem is claiming water damage with no evidence.

For those who missed it:

“The only issue on which the jury did not find in Ms Carroll’s favour was whether she proved that Mr Trump ‘raped’ her within the narrow, technical meaning of that term in the New York penal law.

“The jury … was instructed that it could find that Mr Trump ‘raped’ Ms Carroll only if it found that he forcibly penetrated Ms Carroll’s vagina with his penis.

"It could not find that he ‘raped’ her if it determined that Mr Trump forcibly penetrated Ms Carroll’s private sexual parts with his fingers – which commonly is considered ‘rape’ in other contexts – because the New York penal law definition of rape is limited to penile penetration.”

So the only reason he wasn’t convicted on the rape charge is that his dick is so small they couldn’t definitively prove it was his penis.

“based on all of the evidence at trial and the jury’s verdict as a whole, the jury’s finding that Mr Trump ‘sexually abused’ Ms Carroll implicitly determined that he forcibly penetrated her digitally – in other words, that Mr Trump in fact did ‘rape’ Ms Carroll as that term commonly is used and understood in contexts outside of the New York penal law.”

The more I hear about the Switch 2, the more appropriate that seems…

Nintendo has a history of BS repair refusals.

I had an LCD failure on a GBA, they said it was dropped when it wasn’t and I found photo evidence of a retail unit with the same size and shape failure.

They did fix it, but it was like pulling teeth.

The worst ones are the “live update!” posts because the headline can change minute by minute. :(

Gotta say, I was tempted, but $13,000 and I’d need a truck to haul it and ramps to get it in and out.

If you aren’t interested in American policy, why comment on an article on the ramifications of US policy abroad? 🤔

Not sure what you mean, a majority of voters approved of Trump in the last election, and 1/3rd of Americans couldn’t be bothered to vote so clearly they’re OK with who the voters picked.

The country is going to shit… to thunderous applause. They aren’t idle about it.

I look at different solutions from time to time, but it’s been a while, I’ll check that out!

Composite video and mono audio… Ew. LOL.
