Ivanka for president
Most media reports suggest Lara Trump, daughter-in-law to Donald and wife of Eric, is the most likely to run for Senate in North Carolina. This will likely happen before any of the others try it.

Ivanka for president
Don Jr is likely to try first. We can tell he’s working very hard based on all the mountains of cocaine he’s apparently imbibing.

Blow to US Democracy -Split from: U.S. presidential election modelling
Two of the Republican Senators who voted to convict Trump, Bill Cassidy (LA) and Richard Burr (NC), both of whom were extremely loyal to and supportive of Trump throughout his presidency, were IMMEDIATELY censured by local governments back in their home state as a result of their vote.

How do memories work?
The only thing accurate here is that last part regarding subjectivity and propensity for error in memories

2nd Impeachment of a US President
My guess? Pure political calculation. Would introducing witnesses have bolstered their already rather rock solid case? Absolutely, but it would also have both: 1) allowed the defense to haul in a bunch of ridiculous witnesses unrelated to the case in an attempt to throw red meat to the Republican base (“kindly tell us more about your relationship with Barisma, Mr. Hunter Biden... then next we’ll move on to our 34th hearing about Benghazi and Hillary’s emails and Maxine Waters being black and having a voice....”)... ...and 2) shattered any semblance of goodwill that could help them pass Biden’s Covid and economic response and/or healthcare improvement plans in the next 1-3 weeks. By agreeing to let everyone go home this weekend and hand deliver flowers on Valentine’s Day instead of dragging out the hearings for another 2-3 weeks to listen to witnesses and MAYBE strip off another 1 or potentially 2 additional GOP votes... when they need at least 10 to achieve a different outcome... by backing down they engendered good mojo for minimized opposition to the democratic policy agenda about to hit the floor in the rest of February and March. But your guess is as good as mine. Maybe they’re just spineless hypocrites who wish to silence conservative values. Comments beginning around 12min in are likely most relevant here:

BLM, Capitol Riot, Hypocrisy and False equivalency -Split from: Blow to US Democracy
What a random post for someone to neg rep. I have little hope for the continuance of reasonable exchange of ideas and mature dialog in our world if even SFN is now infected with this type of absurdity

This video was shared by the House managers during the impeachment hearings. It brings clarity and perspective to what really happened on January 6. It’s a hard one to watch, but a good one with which to be familiar. More videos are available. This was just the opening... real events. Real news. Really used as evidence in the US Senate. Flagged as inappropriate by YouTube viewers. https://youtu.be/i9Xd5s0boWc

FFS, man. Why? There’s good reason you can’t use it anywhere anymore. It’s a poor performing and unsecured browser. /rhetorical Yeah. Ole’ Mitch REALLY knows how to be publicly damning of Trump, except of course when it actually matters like during an actual vote to actually convict him in his SECOND impeachment. He’s trying to play it both ways. He wants the Trump base to keep voting for him and his GOP colleagues, but he also needs massive corporations to keep funneling money to them despite the sour taste they currently have in their mouths about the assault on our capitol.- Ivanka for president
Probably, though she’d be better served IMO to aim for a lower office first. Maybe Senator.- 2nd Impeachment of a US President
And as predicted, the senate voted to acquit Trump a second time. I was too conservative above in my guess of 3-6 republicans joining in the vote to convict. Turns out a total of 7 did, but that was still ten too few.- Updated to latest forum software
One more try... ellipsis. The notifications and mark all as read work on tablet, but phone browser not so much.- 2nd Impeachment of a US President
This seems unnecessarily hyperbolic and untrue. 10 House GOP members voted in favor of impeachment and likely 3-6 Senate republicans will vote to convict, as well. I’m certainly sympathetic to your feelings about how disheartening US politics have become, but given that this is already the most bipartisan impeachment in all US history, I cannot agree with your assessment quoted above. It’s self-evidently inaccurate.- Updated to latest forum software

It’s available via the drop-down on the top-right of the post... the one which looks like an ellipses Maybe. Obviously with more focus and funding, things happen much more quickly. However, even with the newer technologies and use of things like mRNA, it’s a mistake to assert equivalence between things like SARS Cov-2 and HIV, or even flu and herpes. Covid doesn’t seem to mutate quite as rapidly as those others, and it also doesn’t seem to evade immune system response in the same way. In fact, the power of our immune system response to it is part of what makes people so sick for so long. I’ll defer to others if any of my points aren’t 100% precise, but my gist is directionally correct.- Updated to latest forum software
