    Are we sure that the SCOTUS nominee is not infected?
    Because it could be that she doesnt have enough viral particles to show up

    Last I checked, no, there was no public announcement of her test results.

    Edit: Though IIRC Pence was there at the event, no? So if he's not positive then it's likely that Jenkins was likely not contagious then, but could have caught it in the WH.

    You can't fool me! I've seen Dave and I know the White House has a secret underground ICU and perfect body-doubles on standby!

    If only there were a cheaply available piece of clothing that could help minimize the risk of infection.

    It is what it is.

    So it appears RBG has argued her first case with God.

    Father John Jenkins, I assume this was some silly error from the source?

    It's a contender for the stupidest thing said in 2020, which is amazing because a lot of mind-bogglingly stupid things have been said this year.

    Really? I think Pence looks like a sexual predator about to "pounce" on someone.

    "Warm and friendly" is not a pair of adjectives that I would use to describe any aspect of Pence's persona.

    I mean, we knew this was coming. And she's been a particularly notable nutter who churns out these unhinged outrage-bait nonsense posts.

    The hope would be that this shakes US conservatives out of their anti-science and anti-expert stupor that they've been in for a while now, but sadly it'll probably just serve to fuel even more baseless conspiracy theories.

    As I recall, that was to maintain the separation of powers because he couldn't serve in both the Legislative and Executive Branches simultaneously. I'm not entirely certain as to the accuracy of that (though I got the feeling they typically did their homework), but in any case I suspect that were Pence to temporarily become Acting President due to Trump being incapacitated with Covid-19, he would during that time no longer be able to break ties in the Senate.

    If anyone ever had a thought that they could celebrate QAnon people finally realizing that their whole belief structure is just pure bullshit, this really will disabuse them of that notion. People who dive unabashedly into this level of conspiracy thinking are pretty much irredeemable. Some might break free, but they'll be the exception and not the rule.

    And out hunger, the plague and radiation poisoning, death by bullet is the preferable one, doesn´t mean it's good. just because other choices might be objectively worse doesn't mean a choice is good. Pence is a morally bankrupt crook.
