one thing a computer can do that most humans can't is be sealed up in a cardboard box and sit in a warehouse
Slippery Tilde

he's not wrong the roberts court already did exactly that with the 15th

here's the text of the 15th, it's not long

quote:

Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

Section 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

roberts just looked at that second part and went NAH

the roberts court also repealed the 7th amendment in epic systems

not to mention that recent precedent from the bush administration says that the president can suspend the constitution if he feels like it

This guy personally knew people who were killed in the shooting but he still goes on about dangerous rhetoric on both sides and that no group should be blamed more than another:

"We should pass a law rule that says you can't be president of Congress if you are a bad person. Then only good people can be presidents and then they can say that things that make everyone happy and safe."

brooks has been on some binge of thinking of dumb ideas to make it so more moderates are elected

a few months ago he wrote a column saying that if districts had multiple representatives, then maybe for example instead of los angeles just electing one democrat and leaving all the moderates and republicans without a voice, if they elected three representatives per district then los angeles would elect one democrat, one moderate, and one republican

hey guys can't you just vote for another neoliberal like one or two more times? please?

https://twitter.com/liamstack/status/1057415439842721792

We are reaping what has been sown from voter disillusionment and we will continue doing so until enough people recognize what is truly at stake when they don’t vote.

There's being a Koch joint and then there's being a Koch/Walmart/Boeing/BP/BofA joint
