Yesssss!
Even if it did work, it's only temporary. For permanent removal, it would take a 2/3 vote in the House (higher than the simple majority required for impeachment). Section 4: constitutioncenter.org/the-constitu...
If you see this, post a vampire that isn't Dracula.
He should team up with Lindy Li.
No healthcare.
No free school lunch.
No child cancer research.
But those f*ckers have the audacity to set fire to $11 billion of our taxpayer funds by blowing up little Iranian girls???
I can't WAIT for the midterms. 🤬

She just sent me this. LOL. (Oh, and it's her 89th birthday. She is no ordinary 89-year-old, that's for sure.)
To everyone except @nickforfriends.bsky.social (who actually knows how things work): Please read the whole 25th Amendment in order to understand why it does not hold the solution to the current problem. constitutioncenter.org/the-constitu...
Will not happen. And the 25th is only temporary. (Honest. Read it.)
I have 0% Irish and yet I am going to Dublin for St Patrick's day. (My cousin who is 100% Scandinavian has her birthday on 3/17 so of course we're all headed to Ireland to celebrate.)
Also, 25th is temporary. To make it permanent, the bar is higher (2/3) than impeachment (simple majority).
For no reason at all: Tehran is closer to Palm Beach than to Los Angeles by about 1000 miles.
The distance from Tehran, Iran, to Palm Beach, Florida, is approximately 6,879 miles.
The distance from Tehran to Los Angeles is approximately 7,611 miles.
OMG, that little tongue. So sweet.
He had 50,000 landscapers arrested but all the Iranian terrorist cells he knows about get a pass sure
I thought the same thing.
That Axios one is demanding my email address to read the article. Here's an alternative that doesn't do that. www.usatoday.com/story/money/...
Hmm.
Iran’s latest generation of Shahed-136 drones have a range of 700 to 1,000 kilometres (435 to 620 miles), sufficient to reach anywhere in the southern Gulf when launched from the Iranian mainland or vessels. But not the US.

It’s a bit eerie. I just got a message on my watch that my towels are dry.
Same. And my current front loader is enormous. Washes a king size comforter with room to spare. The dryer is synced to the washer so it knows what you just washed and dries it accordingly.
Mine too. It sends me a message to remind me.
I’ve had front loaders for 30 years without any issues. Sorry to hear you hate this one. My first was a Whirlpool. Current one is the LG Washtower and it is amazing.
"You asked me for an unpopular opinion, so I gave you one."
Pretty much all of Scandinavia is like this. I had a nice stroll through Copenhagen with an old friend (who is now ambassador to the US, poor guy) many years ago and he explained their way of life and social safety net to me. I was blown away.
That’s actually what I love about cats. I think there are lessons to be learned.
The enemy of my enemy can still be my enemy.
The committees are all chaired by Republicans.
