    The "Trump" Expansion

    The last time the US used it's military to outright conquer more territory was 1898(The Filipinos continued fighting for over a decade after that, but the US fighting there was more to KEEP the territory than to conquer it at that point). Threatening to drag us back into barbarism. Good going...

    The US Supreme Court and its decisions

    Sound like someone offered ol' Trump some kickbacks. Either that or he realizes that propaganda spread from TikTok helped keep the Democrat voters home on election day.

    You can blame the appropriate parties(the Nazis and their enablers) while still focusing on how to prevent it from happening again. In fact you kind a HAVE to assign appropriate blame for atrocities in order to help ensure they don't happen again. Makes it easier to spot groups that are...

    Switch 2 official reveal

    I have a feeling it was put together because they pretty much HAD to. All their information had already been leaked. Pretty sure they were planing on unveiling it in April with the direct. Some of the cuts in the video seem to suggest it was originally intended to be part of a longer form...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Don't really think that will be a problem, outside of Stallone, the rest aren't really highly regarded at all these days.

    Switch 2 official reveal

    Given Nintendo's history, kinda surprises me too. Guess the WiiU burned them more than I thought. I was pretty sure they'd stick with Switch but add super, advanced or ultra to it, not just add a number.

    Switch 2 official reveal

    They also more or less officially confirmed Mario Kart 9 in that trailer.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Apparently there is, though it's more for tourists than actual congress members. https://www.visitthecapitol.gov/visit/capitol-cafe

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    There still are a few left. Likely just enough to give Trump a major headache given the current margins in the House.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    With any luck Johnson pisses off enough of the non-maga republicans that they stage a coup and remove him from his position. There comes a time when you really should put your country above your chances of being re-elected.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    It's a tricky issue to be sure, but something needs to be done. My guess is the best way to handle it would be having individuals, not the state bring the issue up in court and have both sides bring the evidence to prove their case.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Yup, if they didn't have a very effective propaganda apparatus, they'd be toast by now. As long as Fox, Newsmax and OAN (and Twitter now) exist to spread their falsehoods, they can distract their base from what they are really doing(fleecing the American public to gain wealth and power for...

    Facebook has been on a slow downward spiral, quality wise, for over a decade. Looks like someone decided to punch the throttle to speed the decent recently, though.

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    Act is a blatant violation of the Constitution, though I'm sure a majority on the Supreme Court won't care.

    The "Trump" Expansion

    It's not actually true. The Articles of Confederation had that provision and it was specifically for what is now Quebec. Once the Constitution was ratified, the offer was null and void. Congress WOULD have to approve any current Canadian province's statehood under current law.

    Escalating anti-LGBT+ hate and the terrorism it inspires

    It has nothing to do with the social majority. Most people on social media don't care about LGBT+ issues at all and a greater number of those to DO care are at least a little supportive. The issue is the incoming administration and the new Congress are going to make life hell for said...

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    In 2 years the economy will likely be in a worse place and people will be burnt out on Trump's shtick, just like in 2018. He will likely lose the House and possibly the Senate.

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    Heck Babylon 5 sets often looked like they were made of cardboard and the CGI for the space stuff has NOT aged well, but it was STILL one of the best sci-fi shows of the 90s. Their budget was about half that of DS9, iirc.

    The "Trump" Expansion

    That was part of the Articles of Confederation, not the Constitution. I don't think it applies anymore.
