Yes, but I’m more concerned with violent behavior generally throughout our country. People being pushed in front of subway cars, women being beaten on the streets, running gun battles in Chicago, murder rates increasing….our society is spinning out of control. Not acceptable. The problem is the political class only seems motivated to deal with crime when it impacts them. These people need to take our taxes and protect us by hiring more police and locking up violent criminals. That hasn’t been happening enough lately. You're more concerned with your agenda than the truth. Call it for what it is. The national murder rate has fallen this year in major cities But yeah, let's hire more police who don't prevent crimes, they respond to them. Or sometimes create their own. Uvalde, Texas comes to mind. This is again straight off the GOP ad script (Defund the police, soft on crime, ignoring the fact that Republican-led states have higher crime rates per capita) Not attacking the root of the problem (A lack of affordable mental health access to citizens, socioeconomic conditions, general poverty, a broken justice system that disproportionately discriminates against people of color, etc) is an exercise in futility. |

538 is now speculating that a wide range of outcomes could be in the cards for Tuesday. Polls continue to show strong support for key Democrat candidates in PA, Georgia and elsewhere.

This post isn't going to age well. How fast the TDS crowd believes exactly what they are told by partisan media. That post is going to age just fine, thank you. The guy is a right wing, Q'Anon, MAGA supporter. He's been told by the right that Pelosi is a traitor and should be executed. (MTG used exactly those words, and others have suggested the same thing.) Yeah, I wonder what his motive was?  Please... Did you see where NBC affiliate has suspended the local SF reporter that reported that Paul Pelosi opened the door for the police and went back into the home ahead of the police? nypost.com/2022/11/15/nbc-news-reporter-suspended-over-retracted-paul-pelosi-story/Also, did you see where the accounts on who opened the door when the police first arrived differ between the report by the SF DA and the Federal Indictment? One saying Paul Pelosi opened the door and one saying the police did. www.foxnews.com/media/nbc-bay-area-affiliates-report-paul-pelosi-attack-shares-key-details-retracted-today-report What do you think is going on where one needs to suspended a reporter and with the obvious difference in the documentation of events surrounding the attack? |

If he's brought to justice, (impeached) which he should be if guilty of this, then it could really open up a can of worms. So be it. Although it could destroy the Supreme Court. |

Considering there has been one impeachment in the history of the Court and it occurred in 1805, if memory serves, I think it's a bit facetious to say the court would be destroyed. The larger problem this presents is the conflict of interest when Clarence Thomas is presiding over electoral issues while being compromised. |

I was talking more along the lines of if they found more improprieties amongst other Supreme Court Judges, such as exchanges of cash, etc.... I agree that it most likely wouldn't ruin it, but I don't know if they want to go with a full investigation. |

Ginni Thomas was one of the orchestrating members of the rally on January 6th. Clarence Thomas has direct influence to rule on issues connected to that day. That's a problem. |

I would say it's unbelievable, but it's really not. What an awful precedent.

Quaint. So the Supreme Court today struck down an Alabama voting map in Allen v Milligan. The House is under Republican control (and the results are terrible thus far) because of gerrymandering districts that suppressed minority votes.

Would likely flip the House back to Democrat control.
