@robreiner @AWeissmann_@NormOrnstein Statistically if you get 4/5 on try number 3 and you’re faced with a whole bunch of last letter options you can use tries 4 & 5 to create different words with as many of those options as letters to find which letter it is and use it for try 6.
@tribelaw The only way to expand the court in a way that won’t lead to every future administration piling on is to set it at something like 50 with each future president getting like 4-8 picks per term until it’s full. Then draw a random group of 9 for each case heard.
@JRubinBlogger@tribelaw Sinema will lose to Gallego so it will just be Manchin. I would not bet Coons takes up the filibuster flag given how much hate he’d have to endure.
One wonders if the courts could simply rule proactively before laws are passed as to whether they will be constitutional, rather than go through years of legal confusion.
.@chrislhayes: “There were no disputes. The court was not actually solving any problem between two parties. Instead, the conservative majority was functioning like a legislative body, pushing their preferred right-wing policy outcomes irrespective of the actual facts at hand.”
@McFaul How can you conduct a full out war committing 90% of your military at the same time you’re purging its leaders. I can envision a complete collapse of the invasion and Putin justifying the war by blaming it all on the military.
@BradMossEsq Everybody's been using the term Dunning-Kruger Effect. Never having watched the show I always thought they were referring to the company in the show The Office. But now that I know what the term means, it reminds me of this scene in the British version.
