Yeah. Though a minor side-note, I do wonder if changing the name of that phenomenon (white feminism) might help some white women who are well-intentioned but not well-informed to better understand the problem and accept that it’s not a criticism of all white people who are feminists? Even just capitalizing it or…

Ivanka seems pretty savvy - I think she’ll have more power than that. Especially since we know just how much her daddy likes her.I think it’ll be Ivanka & Jared running the executive (I wonder if they’ll live in the White House?), with Pence there to win over the establishment GOP types in Congress.

Yeah, this administration is going to be a huge, huge, huge wake-up call to the country about the reality of our political system and how much of it is just built on trust. I mean, hopefully, otherwise we’re just fucked.

Right, I just mean since a lot of federal employees can take off every other Friday if they work longer days M-Th, 270 is a lot less crazy on Friday. I figured city buses etc might be the same.

He’s also planning on maintaining a private security force in addition to the Secret Service while in office.

Yup.

Flex Friday might help a little bit, right? It certainly clears out the traffic on 270.

Or Capitol Heights.

So they don’t harass the locals, maybe.

Have you looked at WMATA’s trip planner tool? That should help you figure out a good bus route.

With the march, they probably will.

From what I’ve read, the Pentagon has to first send out a message to authorize the use of nukes (or maybe to say that we’re in a situation that might call for them?), then the President’s aide gives him the “football” which contains a list of possible actions for him to take, and then the Secretary of Defense verifies…

Or they’ll be shopping in DC because they live there and are not celebrities except to people who read Politico and watch C-SPAN.

7-8 years, if you have a 4-year degree and graduated on time. But what does that have to do with his skill as a parade announcer? I mean, it doesn’t take 40 years of political science experience to go “and next up is the Such-and-Such High School Marching Band” or whatever. He’s not providing policy commentary.

Oooh, you might be right.

The article says he’s 89. So he would’ve been 29 when he started. In the 50s, so at 29 he was probably a married professional with 2 kids and a prefab house.

He’s also causing the whole healthcare industry to go into a panic and caused international turmoil and damaged our relations with other countries.

You’re aware that being liberal is a good thing, something to be proud of, right? It’s the philosophy that says we should have universal liberty, equality, democracy, and civil rights. The philosophy that says we should work together to, as the Constitution says, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of…

It does prove it was premeditated, though, which as I understand it means they can be charged with first degree murder and put away for life.

You need to set up that kick to do it effectively (i.e., do it while your opponent is recovering from another strike you just did), and even then it’s pretty risky. But in a tournament setting it can work pretty well. In real life I wouldn’t try it.
