They do this whenever a radio station flips formats. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stunting_(broadcasting) quote:Stunting is a type of publicity stunt in radio broadcasting, where a station—abruptly and often without advance announcement—begins to air content that is seemingly uncharacteristic compared to what is normally played. It’s on purpose. But the social media legs from the myth is pretty nice publicity.

Driving across vast, empty, southeastern Oregon one night the radio station was doing nothing but playing What Does the Fox Say on repeat. Must have been this. But yeah. It was endless, as were the flashes of center line in the headlights as we burned up the miles into the darkness of sunset and beyond. I don't know how many times I listened to that song with my buddy, but I do believe I left behind some of my sanity that night. Video we recorded of us singing along to that poo poo made it into the company Christmas party reel.

If you're gonna count FDR -> Truman then by the same logic you have to count JFK -> LBJ but why would you because the argument that the party retaining the presidency consecutively shows how serious they are about keeping it is completely and utterly nonsensical. How does that account for Bill Clinton? "Yeah, he won both times but only with a plurality of the popular vote so they only sorta wanted it."

Directly no, indirectly yes (political pressure behind the scenes to Senators, etc). Obviously this excludes the normal appointing of a Justice is or raising someone to Chief Justice.

Number of justices is set by Congress and the only way of ejecting a justice [REDACTED] is impeachment, which lol. Same goes for lower court makeup! https://twitter.com/owillis/status/1542504968350928896?t=MF1AiqZQG3eAOUhThi6pmA&s=19 The only valid argument against "don't codify Roe" is "well, they'll federal law banning of abortion", which they're gonna do anyways, so it's about time for Biden to find his testicles and start pushing people. Or if he can't get Manchin to move, take it to the people and say "give us x in November and we'll do it and btw we don't want your money"

Taps the sign https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/06/30/supreme-court-epa-climate-change/ June 30, 2022 at 10:12 a.m. ET The Supreme Court on Thursday sharply cut back the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to reduce the carbon output of existing power plants, a blow to President Biden’s commitment to battle climate change. The vote was 6 to 3, with Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. writing for the court’s conservatives. “Capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to generate electricity may be a sensible ‘solution to the crisis of the day’ " Roberts wrote, referring to a court precedent. “But it is not plausible that Congress gave EPA the authority to adopt on its own such a regulatory scheme.”

That'll gently caress up North Carolina and Pennsylvania once it's obviously determined that gerrymandering is good when Republicans do it.

Gorsuch is a libertarian idealogue, Barrett is smart enough to never talk, Kavanaugh and Roberts both like to horse trade and play up how open both sides they are, and Alito is a pretentious young republican "intellectual" dork type. But the upside to Thomas is that he's too dumb to be pretentious, he's naked proof that our Wise Chosen Archon Wizards are all actually just as noble and wise as your average vindictive angry ranting drunk uncle mad at the world, everyone avoids at the BBQ every other year because his lovely fascist wife complains on the family facebook group chat too much after not being invited to the last one. Besides maybe Sotomayor.
