  • We've already paid for it though. That's why we built Yucca Mountain.

  • Why you should mostly ignore "internal polls"

  • I think it's this guy. Don't quote me, but I think he's Trump's internal pollster guy. Apparently him an his outfit released a lot of polls that favored Trump and normally polls are released somewhat strategically (in Nate Silver's experience) rather than wholesale.

  • Nixon was explicitly pardoned to avoid prosecution for his crimes.

    Congress didn't have to stop the impeachment of Nixon. They chose too because Nixon agreed to never run for office again.

    If we want that to change we need an Amendment that established an Independent, non-partisan Prosecutor whose job it is to prosecute Presidents and former Presidents.

  • The whole point is to prevent dangerous individuals from using these loopholes to buy guns.

    Dangerous individuals largely aren't using this loophole to buy guns. That's part of the problem.

    The only gun control that might have a chance at stopping gun crime is a total civilian ban and that requires an Amendment.

  • Impeachment is a political process with the ultimate result being removal from office.

    And potentially the removal of that person's ability to ever run for office again.

    Impeachment and removal from office does not mean they would go to jail, it is not a criminal trial.

    Yes, that's the design. Because it's not an "impartial" process but a political one. And because only 40 or so people have been given that protection, it makes perfect sense.

    That's an 8th grade understanding of the concept where you never learned anything after.

    The 8th grade understanding is the correct one. As confirmed by SCOTUS.

    Remember the DOJ reports to the President. A process where you're either suppose to investigate your boss or investigate your Boss's political allies/opponents would be way to open for abuse.

    Trump can be prosecuted for what he did before the Presidency (as is being done in New York) and for what he has and will do after the Presidency (should he run back J6 part deuce). But for crimes committed while President impeachment is counterbalance.

  • That is the correct interpretation of the law. We could punish the Seal Team and their chain if command for following the order. But punishment of Biden himself would require him to be impeached.

    And frankly that's how it should be.

    Obama killed that 16 year old in Yemen. He isn't liable for that. Bush spied on Millions of Americans without warrants he isn't liable for that. You can argue they should be; but that's not how our system is designed.

  • Because every 8th grade civics course says the same thing. You punish Presidents with impeachment.

  • Major papers are giving Trump’s Jan. 6 indictment dramatically less attention than they did Clinton’s server

    Jump

  • It should be. But it's not. Dems needed to follow the Nixon playbook and have a long drawn out impeachment hearing. They punted on that and let him walk.

    Trump already beat the charges.

  • Major papers are giving Trump’s Jan. 6 indictment dramatically less attention than they did Clinton’s server

  • Yes. As much as I hate it. It's not that big of a story. Either you know and realize Trump tried to commit a coup or you've bought the lie.

    Until Dems start running on, "He he committed a coup" which they gave up on when they punted on his impeachment; it's not a story.

    The conflict makes it a story.

  • According to Pew and APMRL, 58% of Americans want stricter gun laws, and nearly everyone—86%—supports universal background checks. 86%. Not exactly a fringe opinion, is it?

    They hyper majority of gun sales have background checks involved in them. Universal background checks would either ban the private sale of guns (which SCOTUS would likely overturn) or open up the background check system to private citizens (which will almost certainly be abused from a computer security perspective & will lead to people realizing just how poor the system is).

    The point isn't that 80% don't support gun control, it's that each thing on the wishlist isn't widely popular. And even if the actions would lead to a landslide, Americans wouldn't be happy about it.

  • Especially when you look at the US's largest metropolitan areas like New York and Chicago that's really the only knob that hasn't been turned. It's defacto illegal to own a gun in those areas for the common man or woman.

  • No polling says that. There's like 50-60% support for "more strict" gun control.

    70% opposition for a Handgun ban. And only 20% support for an outright repeal to the 2nd Amendment.

    So even if the above gathers an 80% supermajority it won't be able to maintain it if it does thing that are widely unsupported.

  • Maybe because it's not as big of a story. J6 has been in the papers every other week since it occured.

  • 80% of Americans don't support gun control. American Political parties are coalitions among themselves. Even if Ds won by 20 points they won't have the support to do things like implement nationalized healthcare or overturning the 2nd Amendment.
