There's a lot of talk about replacing Biden---and nothing is impossible. But the mechanics of it at this stage are far more involved and difficult than people imagine. Also consider the following factors 1) Biden does not want to give up power. With mounting legal troubles for his family, he's likely more interested in clinging to the pardon power than ever 2) If you read the Revolver piece, it goes into detail as to how the DNC procedures for removing him are not simple or easy---Biden has his own loyalists stacked in there. There are also ballot issues at this late stage in the game that are considerable 3) While many on the left finally realize Biden is a major liability, it really is too little too late. Even aside from the difficulties above, the Democrat elite would have to arrive at a consensus replacement. Who would that be? Kamala is a non-starter---they all hate her. So they need to come to a consensus candidate who isn't kamala harris and deal with the fallout to passing over a woman of color heir apparent. Yet another aggravation on top of Israel-Palestine that already has the base incensed 4) Even if they come up with a consensus candidate and are able to persuade Biden to leave, there's the problem of media preparation. The media is an amazing consensus manufacturing machine but such things require TIME and RUNWAY. That's the problem with it being too late---think of how much preparation went into conditioning the public mind for covid and everything that came after. This late in the game there's just not enough time and runway for the consensus machine to kick into gear effectively. This is not to say that there under no circumstances will be an effort to replace Biden. There could very well be, and it is more likely now than it was a week ago, though the likelihood of them actually replacing him is far less than people imagine even now. All of the steps and hurdles involved in replacing him would be uncertain and have their own risks, and give the public the impression of chaos that has to be weighed against the negative public impression of Biden's cognitive condition

Roundy approves of unelected bureaucrats making laws? Im shocked. So out of character for a Marxist.

Reminder.

Reminder that Biden appointee Flo Pan, married to Democratic activist and Kavanaugh accuser Max Stier, wrote the DC appellate court decision. Basically what SCOTUS decided today is that the vague "c2" subsection is tethered to "c1" which specifically addresses tampering with a record or document. This is what DOJ will have to prove if they want to continue prosecuting J6ers and what judges will have to determine. It will be impossible because no J6er is accused of tampering with a document or record related to the "official proceeding" of counting electoral votes.

Wow. KBJ with majority and ACB continues to be a massive disappointment joins dissent. Roberts for 6-3 court: "The Government’s theory would also criminalize a broad swath of prosaic conduct, exposing activists and lobbyist to decades in prison. Our usual approach in obstruction cases has been to “resist reading” particular sub-provisions “to create a coverall statute.” Yates, 574 U. S., at 549 (plurality opinion). Nothing in the text or statutory history gives the Court a reason to depart from that practice today. And the Government’s interpretation would give prosecutors broad discretion to seek a 20-year maximum sentence for acts Congress saw fit to punish with far shorter sentences. By reading (c)(2) in light of (c)(1), the Court affords proper respect to “the prerogatives of Congress” in carrying out the quintessentially legislative act of defining crimes and setting the penalties for them. United States v. Aguilar, 515 U. S. 593, 600. 64 F. 4th 329, vacated and remanded." ACB joins DISSENT. KBJ joins Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Kav, Gorsuch.

Boom. ***** off commies.

Too late? It was scheduled at the end of June precisely because it won't be too late.

Yep. Take it to the bank.

If it is a democrat running against Trump then they can get you to believe anything they want you to believe. See Biden, Joe. By all accounts, spry for his age, sharp as a tack. Edit: By "you" I don't mean you, Doc. I mean useful idiots.

Again, it's been painfully obvious to non partisans for years... Blatant obvious lies that contradict what you can observe with your own faculties. If they could get you to truly buy that Biden was just fine, then imagine how easy they lie about everything else.

Classic. The King was big on the stutter. Where are those guys today anyway? Finding, Quack, Tibs?
