Will House Democrats defend the speaker against unseating?
  • Only if he makes a deal with Dems which makes him (politically) a dead man walking. Most likely they will just run out the clock until November when there are new elections. Republicans have a two seat majority out of hundreds, they can't do much without bipartisan support and that is not going to happen in this aggressive political atmosphere.

  • Brother laser printers are great. I get new toner for my laser jet twice each decade. Never had a problem. I press print, it prints. Only issue is pretty high current draw when it kicks on with my old house wiring. That's about it.

    Israel-Gaza live news: IDF resumes strikes as ceasefire with Hamas ends - BBC News
  • Everyone always says the answer is that the "other side" stop being violent and be nice. It never happens. So my question to the liberals is, if being nice doesn't work, what's your answer to the situation? Have Israel disarm and let Hamas murder Israelis with impunity? Have Hamas disarm and have Israel settle palistine with impunity? It's been 70 years of this. And by 70 I really mean about 7000.

    Stop asking everyone to condemn Hamas
  • It's a super complex issue. I honestly think the article makes it one step more complicated since it asks to not condemn Hamas. "Free Palistine" is one thing, "I stand with Hamas"... That's a totally different animal.

    Trans Girls Belong on Girls' Sports Teams
  • Genuian question here, are there any studies on bone structure and joint strength of trans athletes? The article says there's no scientific evidence to prevent trans athletes but only talks about testosterone. The complains I have heard center more around a person who had natural male hormones until say 16, and so had puberty male growth in bones and joints to support male muscle mass. Then, transitioned. The hormone levels would be the same as any other female athlete, but would prior bone and joint growth be "locked in"?

    Does that give an advantage? Especially in a sport like swimming where arm length and shoulder size are so critical for the physics of propultion through water.

    Republicans just can’t stop calling for civil war
  • One thing that still heartens me is that the right so abhors violence still (especially against the police) that there is a rampent conspiracy that all the violence at Jan 6th was staged Antifa actors not right wingers. So that's good that the instincts are not that violence against the police is good.
