Yes, each impeachable instance or crime is grounds for a new impeachment.
The US likely has the votes for a 3rd impeachment, with some Republicans coming across the isle (again). However, it will not result in Trump being removed.
The US system is so fucking weird, it was never meant to work with political parties. It’s like a penalty being called on the winning team in sports and the referee stops to ask the offending team if they should get a penalty or not.
Agreed. I have said people ignored the books and dictionary entries, the word Aluminium and MANY others never caught on. You just keep pointing to those books.
The US literally “noped” out of the word Aluminium and refused to use it. If Im wrong, then why arent we saying it today?
It is what it is. The US did not accept the THIRD name change. No one really knew about the first name. Aluminium appeared in the fucking dictionary … but the US population ignored it and stayed with the second name.
Wikipedia is just citing old books … the same old books people disregarded when they refused to use the new weird name.
Webster was an idiot and was trying to change hundreds of words and the population just wasn’t having it. “Soop” instead of “Soup” was literally forced on the public, Aluminium, Dawter … do we use those? No.
Wikipedia is simply wrong. Both spellings were never equally used. Even your post confirms this, the dudes patent said “Aluminium”, but he used Aluminum instead because he liked it. This is how it was everywhere.
From the Wikipedia page you linked;
Davy suggested the metal be named alumium in 1808[30] and aluminum in 1812, thus producing the modern name.[29] Other scientists used the spelling aluminium
The name Aluminium never caught on in the US. It appeared in a few books and was in a dictionary, but so we’re words like Soop (for Soup) and greef (for grief). These did not catch on, Americans just kept using Aluminum. Webster wanted to standardize words … but nobody wanted to use dawter instead of daughter. They did stop using “Gaol” and used Jail instead.
The word history was “alumium” in 1807, then changed to “aluminum” in 1808. It was not changed to “aluminium” until 1812
Welcome to ignore. Everyone else understood the discussion … you are the outlier.
I explained the whole naming process. You gotta read it. The US was given the name as Aluminum and did not change it when the British changed it a third time.
I suspect that if the US had adopted the name “Aluminium” Britain would have changed it again and they would be making fun of us for not calling it “Aluminiumium”.
We say it the original correct way in the US. Other countries changed it for some reason. The guy that discovered it in 1808, Sir Humphrey Davy named it “Alumium” which based on Alumen (Latin for bitter salt)but quickly changed it to “Aluminum”. I swear I remember reading that he kept getting shit on by the science community and his friends for naming a metal “bitter salt” in Latin … but can’t find a reference.
His colleagues in Britain did mess with him and start using the name “Aluminium” … exactly because it ended in “ium” like ALL the other elements (Oxygenium, Carbonium, Ironium, Zincium, Nitrogenium, and the like). They US just kept the name the discoverer wanted instead of giving into those British asshats that just wanted to troll Sir Davy.
He also isolated Magnesium and named it “magnium”, but later changed to magnesium. The guy just couldnt settle on names. Again, in my version of reality it is because his friends kept giving him shit.
Do you work in ICE Human Resources? How do you know their recruiting process so well? Trump is going to get mad that you divulged his secret super stable genius hiring process.
So stupid. They will just tunnel under a wall. Also walls do not block planes, which is where 90% of illegals come in. They buy a plane ticket, get here, and then just stay.
He was so deeply religious and conservative that he donned a fucking breaking bad mask to do some murder and mischief.
Republicans should be terrified at this point. The protests are peaceful … for now.
So, we now officially have a “Rapist in Chief”?
I almost always say this. I usually turn down the job and state that the pay being offered is a little too low … they sometimes raise it.
Yes, I see an article on it now. There was a major lag … like they had to get permission, or were trying to cover it up.
This officially makes it worse.
Yea, there are just 2-3 small online news outlets covering it.
Looks like fake news.
Tyranny cannot thrive in peace. It needs conflict, even if the conflict is manufactured.
Politicians pointing out Trumps “Authoritarianism” are dumb and complicit… dont just criticize, do something. LEAD.
That’s not how that works.
