Because the prosecution used some tweets from when he was in office to highlight intent, or something like that. The supreme court ruling makes them arguably “official presidential activity” and thus can’t be used as evidence. So, any verdict stemming from the use of such evidence is invalid.
I’m in favor of Biden testing the scope of this newly invented supreme court ruling with a few targeted drone strikes, perhaps, but maybe I’m just a bit pissed.
If Biden drops out of the race, the candidate would be Harris. He’d resign, endorse Harris, and it’d get confirmed at the convention. The only “fresh new, younger face” would be the VP pick.
I’m not saying that’s a problem, but the idea that that an open floor battle at the convention would be a good idea is nuts, and just discarding the sitting VP like that would probably shatter the democratic coalition.
Ahem, Bush v Gore… bit longer than a decade. They’re certainly more shameless now that they have a larger margin, but republican justices have been pushing an agenda for awhile.
Smart cars had to pass US crash test standards and have the appropriate safety equipment. The kei trucks that you can currently import and use are 25+ years old and wouldn’t have even passed US standards back then. Your legs are the crumple zone in these things.
I assume that new ones would have a chance, but it’d be expensive for a manufacturer to modify and certify for the US market. Small cars haven’t sold well here, and the profit margins are slim.
Maybe with the recent size and price increases in autos here, well see some movement. I’d love a modern Honda kei to go with my element.
They’re not silly at all, they’re thugs. They want to influence the next one by showing the cost of going against them.
Now, we’re lucky that they’re mostly grifting, incompetent, blustery cowards, so the risk isn’t what it could be.
Gosh, you mean that he’s playing by the rules that the republicans have put in place and not unilaterally disarming? How scandalous.
They should flush the entire “money is speech” concept, but until we can replace most of the SC with people who don’t suck, we work with what we got.
Oddly, sort of related to some of these same complainers sitting out 2016. Weird how elections can have consequences.
Unless it’s changed, explicit sync is supposed to be in the nvidia v555 beta later this month.

Probably, but for other reasons. Neither of those are owned by the US, are they?
Come on, NYT, they’re lies. There’s no reason to soften it. Write it clearly.
Except they’re dead against any adversary with remotely modern air defenses… or 5th, 4th, and likely 3rd Gen fighters if they’re around. They’re amazing at fighting targets that can’t shoot back though.
Not (re)building in areas prone to wildfires, mudslides, floods, and the like would be a good start. Otherwise, someone has to pay to rebuild when the ever more frequent disaster hits. State farm and other insurers suck in many ways, but this isn’t unreasonable on their part.
It’s probably more due to increased asymmetric partisan polarization than anything. The same issue shows in polling on the economy. When Trump was in, republicans reported that the economy was great. As soon as Biden took office, the economy was doing horribly.
No. You don’t get the goodies that you we’re holding your breath over without helping Ukraine.
Or perhaps put something in about a militia, but one that was well regulated.
Unfortunately, republicans will quite likely take the senate in the next cycle. With Manchin retiring, WV is essentially a republican lock. More broadly, Democrats are defending 20 seats to 11 for republicans, and the lowest hanging fruit for democratic pickups would be Rick Scott (FL) or Ted Cruz (TX), and as much as they both suck, that’s still going to be tough.
So, just to retain their slim margin, they’d have to defend all of their other seats and knock off one of those two.
If she only had a record to check… oh, wait, she does:
Haley has consistently supported bills that give rights to an unborn baby and restrict abortion, except when the mother’s life is at risk. In 2006, as a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives, Haley voted for the Penalties for Harming an Unborn Child/Fetus law, which asserted that an act of violence against a fetus is akin to a criminal act against the mother. She has also re-signed a new state law that bans abortions at 20 weeks of pregnancy.[38]

Haley is opposed to Jail or Death Penalty for women who have abortions.[41][42][43]
Is that the moderate republican position?
If one of them gets into power, Canada might just pay for that wall.
Changeling barbarian.
Huh
The difference is that Manchin, for all of his many flaws, is probably the only Democratic senator that we’re likely to see from WV in the foreseeable future. So, the option isn’t “Manchin or a better Democrat”, it “Manchin or a hard right-wing republican”. WV is one of the reddest of states and it’s almost shocking that a Democrat won there at all and it’s easy to understand why he bucks the party.
Sinema has no excuse aside from her seeming delusions of importance and dreams of cushy corporate cash once she’s out.
Practice?
