@arstechnica I just put my Mint Mobile contract on short-term, instead of annual. I do not trust T-Mobile at all, I want to be ready to jump.

There is no question about it: Alito, Thomas, Roberts, and the three Trump Supreme Court appointees are all Republican partisan hacks.

Pass term limits. Expand the court. Enact an enforceable code of ethics.

Dems must do this the moment they gain back control of Congress.

@rbreich You know better. A Constitutional amendment would be required to pass term limits. That requires 3/4 of the states plus 2/3 of both houses. I wish term limits would pass, but barring a miracle it won't be in my lifetime or yours.

@arstechnica "Why Germany ditched nuclear before coal—and why it won’t go back"

The entire article can be summarized as, "Because they don't care about the environment, and will happily destroy it for political reasons--while calling themselves 'green'."
