Just to clarify, this law becomes active January 1st. The new congress doesn’t get sworn in until January 3rd.

As others have stated, it’s being projected that Dems take back the House and possibly the Senate, which could see a new law get signed in that reappropriates funds back into social safety net programs, though it then goes to the dipshit in command for a signature. If he vetoes, it’ll require 2/3rds of both chambers of Congress to override, which is a much taller order.

So as you are stating, people need to realize what’s fully at stake and vote. There is a pathway to some form of normalcy, 2/3rds is … possible.

Yeah, last i checked on 270 to win, Dems would need to win some VERY improbable Senate races to pull off the 67 needed to convict and remove both. Possible, just improbable.

If they don’t reach the 67 needed, they need to save any impeachment hearings because people are voting based on economy and having impeachment hearings will come off as out of touch, like the last time.

Instead they should focus on investigating and releasing the Epstein files, as there seems to be bipartisan support for that, and once fully released, test public sentiment on impeachment. That may be the only way to get enough votes, but the end result would be a Vance presidency, unless they can somehow tie him to it as well, which is unlikely.

Assuming all seats are filled and are present, 218 in the House to impeach, 67 in the Senate to convict and remove.

Venezuela could do the funniest thing right now.

Not entirely sure, but I’m pretty sure the park Rangers did a search on my license plate then looked up registration or personal property and found a phone number tied to something. I didn’t have my voicemail setup for a very long time so never got their messages, lol.

My buddy and I would regularly backpack in state parks and just park the car in the lot. We only found out a few years later we had voicemails from the state telling us we were illegally camping overnight. It was around that time when talking to other enthusiasts that they called it bandit camping.
