I was thinking that happened all at once, and I was right. Wikipedia says all of those occurred between July 14, 2020 and January 16, 2021.

Just wanted to mention the ruling wasn't across party lines - Kavanaugh and Roberts joined in.

Reply to comment by DFWPunk in Rep. Eastman sparks outrage after asking about the potential economic benefits of the deaths of abused Alaska children by HoboWithAComputer
This was one of those headlines I see from time to time and think, "That can't really be what happened." Then I get proven wrong.
The Republicans' response was what I expected, though. Spineless. Either not going on record that he's vile or saying 'his words are his own'.

Jack Smith's team subpoenaed Mike Pence, so that'll be something to follow. He can't ignore that like he can a request from Congress. He may try invoking the 5th a lot, though.

Yeah, intent and all. As the news for this stuff has come in, I've been considering Biden and Pence's searches to be roughly the same level of bad: Not great, but both teams are working to get anything they might have returned. Part of me wishes it wasn't newsworthy at all, but it's also comforting to see it being handled without any theatrics. Trump's situation was, as he typically is, just exhausting.

It's not as rare as it should be. I remember it happened in TN a few years ago because it hit a Nissan GT-R. The driver died.

Start with Rokita. Yeah, he's not on the board, but he needs to get punted.

It's a positively balmy 23 here in TN. We'll even get above freezing by Monday!

The names of the 'no' voters aren't unexpected, but I'm a little surprised Ted Cruz wasn't one of them.

I'll bet it looks incredible with the sun behind it! The neighbors across my back yard had a pair of maples that turned a similar color and the sun coming through the leaves was amazing.

As I understand it, TX is sending kits to parents so they can keep a sample of their kid's DNA on hand should something happen to them at school. It's not mandatory, but wtf.

Reply to TIL Like casinos, shopping malls are intentionally designed to disorient visitors. The feeling of losing track of time and geography inside a mall is called the Gruen Transfer. by Rifletree
I've experienced this as well as the opposite. There used to be a really small one nearby. It had an anchor in the center and stores in a U shape around the side, plus 2 exits at either end. It was suuuper easy to get around in that one. Sadly, it's now a Walmart.
One of the remaining malls here is a sprawling monstrosity. Every time I've been there, I got a little confused trying to figure out which side I was parked on.
