Oh, lovely. They've sent me a mo-ron.
I don't expect it to work. I expect stupid attempts to unseat her to happen because I already saw past examples.

Are you thinking about entering politics? I know I've considered local politics as a third pick career.
No more like helping out people with more Charisma then me enter local politics.
I have a pretty abrasive personality that makes my chances of making it in politics pretty unlikely, however aiding some one who has a better personality is doable.

I have a similar perspective towards Britain. I know, no matter how long it takes or how painful it is, my lot will get their opportunity to fix things. We just have to patient and let these idiots destroy themselves.
So apparently we're getting the announcement no sooner than Friday:

I think it's too late for that, honestly. And unfortunately, because this was going to suck no matter what.
It would not surprise me if Biden himself came up with the idea. Especially since it would show he really isn't a moderate; he just plays one on TV. If he gave the details on who he (or rather the party) want on the Court, it would scare the shit out of swing voters and he knows it.
Why would they?
They'd get to vote in the new speaker. She'd be minority leader, MAYBE, if she can convince her fractured party to vote for her.
There aren't really grounds for impeachment. She sucks, but can they prove she's doing anything worthy of impeachment? Being against your politics doesn't count.

Yeah, that's absurd. One of the most important things a president does is appoint SC justices (it shouldn't be that important, but it is). The American people absolutely have a right to know what sort of judges the president thinks should be on the court, because a choice between candidates is the only way they can have any input on that decision.
In theory, yes, but not in practice. They'd need grounds for impeachment, and sadly "being a toxic and deranged hyper-partisan" isn't a valid reason to get rid of a federal official.
Representatives and Senators can't be Impeached; they can only be removed from office by 1) dying, 2) resigning, or 3) a vote of the House or Senate (for Representatives and Senators respectively) kicking them out of office.
The President has zero legal ability to remove a Representative or Senator from office or even to influence the decision to do so. Even charging them with a crime, convicting them, and throwing them in jail still would not be enough as they have a Constitutionally protected right to attend Congress.
As for Pelosi specifically, if the Democrats don't have a majority in the House then she will not be the Speaker of the House.

Was gonna put this in the Excellence in Shitlording thread, but it's probably better here.
