They are in a position where they can pass legislation that will obligate the President to do something different. But I won’t hold my breath…

It is also unclear what happens if someone doesn’t have ID when they show up to vote. Do they get sent home? Do they file a provisional ballot? How is that provisional ballot eventually validated and counted?
Not all Voter ID laws are bad, but they should always be oriented toward having a path to allow the most vulnerable to vote. The right to vote should be absolute, and not subject to revocation if someone doesn’t have the correct paperwork on them. (Yes, I think felons ought to be able to vote, too.)


Nope, that is incorrect.

If a Presidential impeachment succeeds, that person immediately leaves office. The Constitution says that if the President were ever to leave office, the VP takes over. But if there is also no VP, what happens next depends on the Presidential Succession Act:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_Succession_Act
Which says that the Speaker of the House becomes Acting President.
Its still a matter of debate what exactly an “acting President” can do in this context. Does the House Speaker resign from Congress and move into the White House? That is the plainest reading of it all, after all.


It doesn’t matter what they might or might not “consider”, if they impeach Trump them Vance becomes President, unless they do a twofer and impeach them both.
If they ever have the votes to impeach Trump, they would likely have the votes to impeach both of them. But, they may think it’s political suicide to do so, especially since then a (presumably Democratic) House Speaker would become President, and not by being elected, which would trigger all sorts of folks on the Reich Right


Wasn’t there also that bit about “the Disciple that Jesus loved”?
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


Seems like you need to find some good non-profits in your area and donate some time to them. They might have lawyers on staff who can advise on how to do what you want to do productively


Many governors are former mayors.


Unfortunately, the vast majority of states require someone to go to law school (and pass the bar exam) before they can practice. So that is three years of graduate school after your 4-year undergraduate degree.
Some states might still let you take the bar exam without actually going to law school, but they will require proof of some amount of work (years) assisting in a legal capacity. You won’t be able to just sign up for the bar exam just because you want to take it.
The cheapest option is to live in a state with a good public University system, be smart enough to get in, and hope their law school tuition doesn’t break the bank.
However, sending legal-sounding letters doesn’t require a law degree at all. You only need that when you go to court. However, if you have been vibing your way through threatening legal sounding shit, and it does go to court, you may be in a world of hurt when no actual smarty-pants lawyer takes your case.
Isnt there about to be an ugly, gaudy Arc de Trump right in that spot (or at least, on that side of the bridge)?


Renewals can be done online if you meet certain criteria, I got my passport card renewed recently and did it all on my phone, including taking the picture.


“Every time, all the time. Like, ‘How are you doing?’ ‘Where’s the ballroom?’ ‘How you playing [golf]?’ ‘I don’t know, I’d play better if you built the ballroom.’ It’s all the time,” Graham said with a chuckle. “He understands what’s missing.”
Not even Lindsey can hide the fact that the President fixates on things like a three-year-old


It is possible that DeWalt designs and manufactures its own batteries, and there is some clever tech in them that makes them superior to other batteries, or that they pay for high quality components that make them last longer.
However, it is just as likely that they buy the batteries themselves “off the shelf”, put them in a custom plastic enclosure, slap their label on them, and sell them for an insane markup. Sometimes, they don’t even need the custom enclosure and they just buy someone else’s finished battery product. The “off-brand” option may be the exact same product.
It’s not unethical to use off-brand batteries, but then if you buy a substandard one that causes a problem the manufacturer may use that as an excuse to deny their warranty claim. But when was the last time you replaced a tool under warranty?


Pretty much the easiest question for a sitting leader to just bullshit through
Right, but he was never a leader. He’s a boss. And the type of boss who expects people to just do what he says, without any questions. Simply asking a question is a sign of disloyalty!


Not true! MAGA has had other important (to them) accomplishments, like harassing brown people and protecting pedophiles.


Socialism: If you have two cows, you give one to your neighbor.
Communism: If you have two cows, you give them to the government and the government then gives you some milk.


If it’s coupled with DC Statehood, why not?


Did you see her picture, though? I don’t think she is “his type”. Totally the wrong demographic


It can be anxiety inducing the first time you do anything on your own like that. Rest assured, though, that you are not the only young adult feeling this way. Just do it, make a few mistakes in the process, and then you will be fine. Plus, you will know better next time.
With regards to the passport photo, it’s fine, just look at the guidelines thoroughly as they are very specific in terms of your background and stuff. In particular, you’re not supposed to use a selfie, because the angle will be all wrong. (You can use a cell phone pic with the proper background and lighting, they just recommend that someone else actually take the picture at the proper angle). Having said that, my last passport pic was a selfie which I took from arms length, and they accepted it…


Pete Rose may be gone, but his spirit lives on
It doesn’t matter. If he stays in power past Jan 2029, he won’t need an election (or any popularity polls) to do it.
