So, firing people with experience and replacing them with yes-men, basically. As well as gutting the intelligence community in the process simply because he Trump believes conspiracy theories and they're not lining up quickly enough to kiss his ring.Sources: National Security Adviser to slash career staff and add political appointees @kylieatwood reports https://cnn.it/324LOdU

I mean, probably 0%. Democrats can't not impeach Trump at this point, it's more a matter of when and exactly what the contents of the impeachment resolution / trial will be. Seems like Pelosi, Schiff, and to a lesser degree Nadler were the key leadership figures on this anyway.Unagi wrote: Thu Oct 17, 2019 9:57 am That is sad. and I do wonder how it will affect things in the impeachment.

Right hand says, prohibition, not so muchThe Michigan Court of Claims stopped the state's ban on flavored vapes Tuesday, issuing a preliminary injunction against the ban, which began on Oct. 2.
Even my right hand is like WTF?“Not only has plaintiff A Clean Cigarette lost a significant percentage of its sales and closed several stores due to the ban, the ban will force plaintiff to rebrand itself entirely,” she wrote. “In essence, the emergency rules will destroy plaintiff A Clean Cigarette’s business as it currently exists.”
This is what my right hand remembers...But Stephens said the state was fully aware of the problem nearly a year ago and couldn’t justify the need for the emergency rules.
“Indeed an agency cannot create an emergency by way of its own failure to act,” she wrote. “The court concludes that the record, at least at this juncture, does not substantiate the declaration of an emergency which necessitated dispensing with the … normal rule-making procedures which afford the public meaningful opportunities to be heard.”
No. What. That's not prohibition is bad.She also noted that there was evidence that adults using flavored vapes as a means to quit smoking could revert back to traditional cigarettes.
“There is evidence in the record supporting the notion that many adult users of flavored vaping products will return to more harmful combustible tobacco products,” Stephens wrote.

I'm not sure this is political but didn't know where else to put it. I'm not sure how this can be a criminal act. I can see there being social consequences, but not legal ones.

State lawmakers weighed a bill Tuesday that would make saying the “B” word in a derogatory way an offense that could result in a $200 fine.
The bill, “An act regarding the use of offensive words,” was filed in May by Representative Daniel Hunt, a Boston Democrat who represents a swath of Dorchester.
Under the bill, anyone who “uses the word ‘bitch’ directed at another person to accost, annoy, degrade or demean the other person shall be considered to be a disorderly person,” and will be subject to a fine of up to $200. A violation “may be reported by the person to whom the offensive language was directed at or by any witness to such incident.”

Pope Francis Reverses Position On Capitalism After Seeing Wide Variety Of American OreosLawBeefaroni wrote: Wed Oct 23, 2019 9:24 amConvenience. When you can't summon up the energy to squirt mustard and mayo on your sandwich but you have to have it, there's Mayomust.

WASHINGTON—Admitting the startling discovery had compelled him to reexamine his long-held beliefs, His Holiness Pope Francis announced Tuesday that he had reversed his critical stance toward capitalism after seeing the immense variety of Oreos available in the United States. “Oh, my goodness, look at all these! Golden Oreos, Cookie Dough Oreos, Mega Stuf Oreos, Birthday Cake Oreos—perhaps the system of free enterprise is not as terrible as I once feared,” said the visibly awed bishop of Rome while visiting a Washington, D.C. supermarket, adding that the sheer diversity of flavors, various colors and quantities of creme filling, and presence or absence of an outer fudge layer had led to a profound philosophical shift in his feelings toward the global economy and opened his eyes to the remarkable capabilities of the free market. “Only a truly exceptional and powerful economic system would be capable of producing so many limited-edition and holiday-themed flavors of a single cookie brand, such as these extraordinary Key Lime Pie Oreos and Candy Corn Oreos. This is not a force of global impoverishment at all, but one of endless enrichment.” At press time, the pontiff had reportedly withdrawn his acceptance of capitalism, calling any system that would unleash a Roadhouse Chili Monster Slim Jim on the public “an unholy abomination.”
