US Politics

A two-thirds majority vote in the House is required to expel one of its members, according to Article 1, Section 5 of the Constitution.

But who would initiate the process, and will there be enough Rs to vote Santos out? Lot of questions. It wouldn't surprise me if he stayed till 2024 since Rs simply don't care, especially since a D might fill up that space.

My understanding is that he legislated to give pharmaceuticals more freedom against medical autoritarism aka laws that regulates medical/medicine/ethical research/regulations etc?

I might be wrong

It sounds completely whacko and is but basically it is resorting anti-vaxxers to normal society by ensuring they can't be discriminated against for their lack of vaccine status, vaccine passport etc.

Also doctors with nutjob churchy views can't be discriminated against for those nutjob views.

Refuge of sanity with 7.5M cases of covid and 86k dead. #12 out of 50 states for highest death rate during the pandemic. Serenity now.
 
The crypt keeper returns to sustain herself on the power fountain. Genuinely disgusting that she's allowed to hold a senate seat.

Who could possibly have seen this coming. Was CNN expecting the right to suddenly start watching? Obviously they were, since that's their CEOs new plan, but this was never going to do anything but push other people away.

Was such a moronic decision, a one-time high viewership with Trump just to tank your own brand in the long term, well, we will see about that, but its quite possible.
Many people won't forget they hosted what was essentially a Trump-rally, and the right-wingers? They hate CNN anyway so they won't gain anything there, besides, CNN will never be right-wing enough for that group of people.

Well done, CNN.
 
It startled me, but listening to Pod Save America podcast, the hosts pointed out like twice as many people will have listened to their episode covering the townhall as actually tuned into watch on CNN. The network only averages 350k viewers in prime time. Crazy small.

A state can pass laws on how federal funding is used? I can see a batshit state like FL creating laws to reject federal money based on how it would be used. But they can accept the money and then stop how it's used? Surely that is an instant lawsuit?

Fantastic podcast. Strict scrutiny on their channel is great too.

That would surely be an ADA violation to use federally appropriated funds sanctioned for X program and then used to Y program, assuming the ADA extends to states using federal funds.
