They are part of the same process. Or did you mean a single vote to remove? With the American bicameral legislature, that’s not really possible.

The headline is technically correct. The best worst kind of correct.

I’m not LGBT myself, but it sounds like lemmy.blahaj.zone should have what you’re looking for.

He’s overdue for one of those regardless.

Now that you point it out, I kinda agree. I honestly wasn’t going for the meme take though.
