It was Mitch McConnell and the Republics that blocked Merrick Garland, not the Democrats.

I think 2000€ ($2200) is about right. That gets you a Brompton C Line and all the accessories you need.

Or it gets you a perfectly fine road bike, gravel bike, or hardtail mountain bike, if those fit your riding style better.

With road bikes, you can spend obscene amounts of money chasing marginal weight savings. I will never understand spending $10000 on a road bike to save the amount of weight you lose by pooping.

I am willing to spend a lot more on a mountain bike. Good full suspension and robust wheels with high-engagement hubs hits $5000 easily.

the entire point of the court is to evaluate legislation against our constitution

That is not the entire point of SCOTUS. That is not even in the constitution; it is a power the court gave itself in Marbury v. Madison.

Most SCOTUS decisions are judging appeals against federal law (including the constitution). Occasionally they rule a federal law unconstitutional, but not usually.

Are you suggesting stones suffer psychological effects?

They probably know that if they put corn starch on Stonehenge they'll be in jail for a few days and get community service, but if they put spray paint on a billionaire's yacht, they'd get shot.

Lots of people who have had a stroke and should absolutely not be driving are still driving.

Because in America telling old people they can't drive is basically telling them to sit at home die sad and lonely. Or worse, move out of their status symbol suburban homes to which they have tied their entire self worth.

There is no reason why the message sync that works from phone to phone could not be implemented on the desktop client as well.

Because she works for billionaires, not for the people. Vote blue no matter who.
