All Hail King Biden the First
  • as long as it's "official"

  • Shocked Doctor Face
  • Hot damn, that is good!

  • Prosecutor won't oppose Trump sentencing delay in hush money case after high court immunity ruling
  • Some of the evidence presented was from when he was president. That's at least the angle his lawyers are going for.

  • Borzoi
  • Borzoi's are the sweetest dogs too. Like most sighthounds, they are very gentle/calm/lazy

    Following tradition, within means
  • Yet another tradition being destroyed by millenials

  • 'Affirmative'
  • Dig Dug is an interesting thought (great Commadore64 oldie as well), though not where that quote game from.

    It's from the greatest game ever made: Lords of the Realm II

  • 'Affirmative'
  • Oh man, that takes me back. Thanks for the nostalgia kick

  • 'Affirmative'
  • "Let's get digging!" (I really hope somebody knows this one)

  • Trump is “absolutely” immune for “official acts” on Jan 6th, SCOTUS rules
  • But by then, that history book will be banned, and only the bible will be left in schools (that will all be private)

  • US Supreme Court rules Trump has immunity for official, not private acts
  • From the Sotomayor dissent, which is joined by both Kagan and Jackson: Today's ruling "reshapes the institution of the Presidency" and "makes a mockery of the principle . . . that no man is above the law." The decision "gives former President Trump all the immunity he asked for and more. Because our Constitution does not shield a former president from answering for criminal and treasonous acts, I dissent."

    The President of the United States is the most powerful person in the country, and possibly the world. When he uses his official powers in any way, under the majority’s reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.

    Sotomayor does not use "respectfully" with "dissent" here or at the end of her dissent, which concludes: "With fear for our democracy, I dissent."

  • German Dinosaurs
  • That was an exaggerated bit in the Lost World movie, but vocalizations are mostly done with soft tissue, which isn't fossilized.

  • German Dinosaurs
  • Birds originated in the Jurassic, and could (can) fly. Some dinosaurs could fly. Pterosaurs are lizards, who also could fly.

  • Sonia Sotomayor Is Trying to Warn Us About the Supreme Court’s Dirtiest Open Secret
  • It may be useful to defend the 2nd amendment now, to galvanize a portion of the population. But when it's no longer useful, they'll clamp down hard on that too (just like Reagan did when the Black Panthers started arming themselves in the 80s)
