some states elect judges. some appoint them. each state does its own thing.

scotus is about to vaporize chevron doctrine bringing more power to themselves. it's just as likely they will let trump be on the ballot removing power from another branch of government and give more to themselves.
if scotus wants to maintain any of the little credibility they do have, they aren't going to ignore what is even for this era of language and the definition of words, plain language text saying that people who were involved in insurrecion against the united states are ineligible to hold office unless 2/3 OF each house of congress waives the provision. and one of the things that john roberts really cares about is how his court is seen by history. I can see 4 votes right now to allow the ruling to stand but I can't see of the rest of the unelected lords who provides vote 5.
it's the same reason why the fears of rainbow fentanyl ramps up all october and dissappears on november 1, never to be invoked again until the next september.
I'd honestly like to know what they're protecting kids from.
it's disgusting that those in charge in israel are using what was done to their people in the 30s and 40s as a universal shield for when they commit atrocities. you can't tell any israeli they're doing bad or else you get accused of being antisemitic. you can't negotiate anything that way unless israel gets everything they want.
not surprising. the american right is specifically catered to address male grievances.
my guess is that in that situation all of the trump sycophants will be so fractured trying to attract the cult that they won't gain enough support to mount a meaningful challenge. they'll be too busy knifing each other in the back. I've never seen game of thrones, but I hear that's how a lot of it went.
I don't think he'd survive that long. and if he did, that syphilitic brain of his would prevent him from even being viable to everyone but the ones who have trump flavoraid for blood.
nope. israel isn't doing genocide. nope. no genocide or other war crimes here.
now watch them accuse us of being antisemitic and invoke the holocaust. these assholes need to know just because 6+ million of your people were murdered doesn't give you the excuse to do the same thing to another people.
and what's elon going to do about it? fucking nothing.
chances are he's given them a follow.
genocidist gets mad he's called a genocidist, confuses term used for hatred of a religious group with criticism of a government
one can be pro judaism (or at least neutral to it) and anti israel. someone needs to tell this clown israel≠judaism≠israel.
I think the word that best sums this up for me is surreal.
