recreate our government for a new age, and it's not just because of trump, putin, and greed. It is also because we did not make the changes that needed to be made when big tech evolved.

We were warned. Anyone who reads Kara Swisher knows what she thinks. Kara also made appearances on our local public radio, WNYC.

She's not the only one, though. Ezra Klein's podcast covered many topics in this area and Ezra accumulated a line-up of tech critics that are worth listening to for what needs to be done.

I'll bet I'm missing a few from Wired Magazine.

A lot of these people are going to transition (or dead if you prefer that) on out of here: trump, putin, for example. They are old and in poor health.

People like Vance and Patel, Gabbard, Witkoff, the whole group will be prosecuted. I think the trials alone will last through 2035.

We will get the House back. Senate is up in the air, but the mood of the country is such that many will consider resigning. That is due to the fact that many of them did something illegal, and as the prosecutions continue, they will understand that they might possibly mitigate some of a sentence if they get the hell out.

We have not even seen the worst of the scandals that are going to come out. A good clue is what you see Chip Roy and Mike Lee trying to do with the ICC. Link: https://roy.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-roy-sen-lee-introduce-legislation-deport-international-criminal-court-icc

They are afraid of something. Otherwise, why would you do this?

I see a rocky road for us, but I also see us solving these problems (republicans), which have been a thorn in our side for so long. They will have so wrecked their reputation that they will be persona non grata after all this comes out.

Only if 2/3 of the Senate voted to remove him MichMan Mar 2025 #4
I don't think 2/3 senate will convict him though Meowmee Mar 2025 #6
The problem with that is that you would need 67 votes to convict in the Senate Polybius Mar 2025 #10
we don't know the political atmosphere NJCher Mar 2025 #26
True, but we would need to pick up 20 seats Polybius Mar 2025 #31
And nothing is going to change those votes. mr715 Mar 2025 #40

yeah, sigh NJCher Mar 2025 #23
