Judiciary Act of 1789 called for six, but it waxed and waned until the Grand administration.

Trying to look at the bright side of this dark dark Pirro shit and hoping maybe that people will wake the fuck up someday soon and stop granting any legitimacy to sucking voids who are famous for simply being on the teevee. Preferably before The Situation is sworn in as Secretary of State.

wouldn't be worse than some people in the cabinet

I think climate change is more complex than global warming will make it hotter. It has to do with disruptions of atmospheric conditions,ocean patterns, jet streams and shit like that

the situation's impulse in most conflicts seemed to be vigorous de-escalation, which was an interesting quality in a successful reality tv star and in a president would put him at least as high as jfk

tbf this has always been with us

Οὖτις, Thursday, 7 June 2018 19:23 (eight years ago)

yes, but given the steady decline of stable career paths / increase in precarious work, I'm going to go ahead and assume it's getting worse.

I predicted a Chelsea-Situation election awhile ago

but unemployment is at an all time low ! surely that is all that matters and everyone is happy,right ? xp

(•̪●) (carne asada), Thursday, 7 June 2018 19:32 (eight years ago)

Yeah, they're trying that "unemployment is low!" line in Canada too and everyone under 35 knows it's horseshit.

By "that" do you mean the CEA, because there's no way he's abandoning this?

Everything. He's scrapping everything. Everything must go!

My own analysis of the White House economic analysis has concluded that 'a-doy'.

Yikes. I asked @FLOTUS spokeswoman @StephGrisham45 about Giuliani saying that she believes her husband re Stormy Daniels. Response: “I don't believe Mrs. Trump has ever discussed her thoughts on anything with Mr. Giuliani.”

NYT headline is that San Francisco is a “liberal city pushed to the right by urban ills.”

The article consists of quotes from interviews with “members of the San Francisco Republican Party” who were gathered at “an upscale sushi restaurant” to watch election results. pic.twitter.com/4BU77c9dc1

the SF mayor's race has turned out to be a ranked choice cliffhanger, first London Breed was winning, then when Jane Kim's 2nd place choices were counted Mark Leno pulled ahead, now it's almost a tie, with still many votes still to be registered. could be undecided for another week! no republican in sight

Dan S, Friday, 8 June 2018 01:20 (eight years ago)

Yeah we’re just sitting back here. Such members of the GOP as around connive and fume but that’s mostly it.

the countdown to the next WITCH HUNT tweet begins... now

place your bets pls

I am heading for Canada and the G-7 for talks that will mostly center on the long time unfair trade practiced against the United States. From there I go to Singapore and talks with North Korea on Denuclearization. Won’t be talking about the Russian Witch Hunt Hoax for a while!
