Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Super late, but can I just take a moment to appreciate how ruthless the Soros are?
They just tied themselves to the throat with the DNC. Democrats are his bitches and they best serve his interests and not fuck him over, because he'll take them down with them. A surreal faustian siamese pact.
Well played, Soros.

Executive Order on Judaism is a Mistake
Last December, President Trump signed an executive order (EO 13899) protecting Judaism under Article VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination “on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance.” This move immediately sparked a varied response from people of all backgrounds. Conservatives applauded the move, citing the high rate of anti-Semitic crimes recorded by the FBI. The anti-Semitic stabbing that occurred during Hanukah celebrations at the end of the year serves as a reminder that this concern is extremely valid. However, this executive order, named “Combating Anti-Semitism,” does not truly do what it claims.
Many Jews responded to this move on Twitter, drawing a comparison to what Nazi Germany did as one of the first of many steps to the Holocaust, when Jews were considered as a separate race and ethnicity. By considering Judaism a protected class under “race, color, and national origin,” some fear that the anti-Semitic notion of Jews having a differing nationality, implying support of a foreign nation over American interests, will be propagated by this administration. Given that Trump was attacked by groups such as J Street less than a week before this executive order for stating that American Jews should support him out of loyalty to Israel—the same anti-Semitic trope—this fear is compounded.
This may result in more restriction of speech criticizing Israel than speech criticizing America.
Saturday Night Live decided to poke fun at the executive order, saying that Trump can now say his daughter is “in an interracial marriage,” while showing Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, both of whom appear white, drawing laughs from the crowd. This shows the second problem with this move: Judaism isn’t necessarily any specific color. While most Jews are white, there are Jews of Ethiopian descent, converts from various racial backgrounds, and adoptees of different colors into Jewish families. Additionally, white Jews have the privileges that white people have in America based on appearance: people of color face many implicit judgments when it comes to dealing with police, for example, that white people, and by extension, white Jews, do not face. Since this executive order deals with color and race, classifying Judaism as a specific race or color ignores the reality of how race and color are perceived.
This executive order, named “Combating Anti-Semitism,” does not truly do what it claims.
Another criticism is that the move will stifle anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian activism on campuses. The executive order singles out college campuses, specifically, as the focus of the President. Since the executive order adopts the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism, including its examples, valid criticisms of Israel, and by extension, 1st amendment-protected free speech, may be restricted. The IHRA definition includes examples such as “claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor,” and “drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis,” and has been criticized for being too vague to be used as a legal standard, and is even considered by the IHRA as a “working definition.” Many perceive this definition as troubling due to its conflation of anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism, which is the opposition to the creation of a Jewish state in the land currently occupied by Israel. One can oppose Zionism on democratic grounds, such as believing in the separation of church and state, or that Palestinians deserve to have the same representation in the country by which they are governed.
There are multiple Jewish groups, and many other groups besides, that criticize Zionism and the creation of the State of Israel, and these groups are clearly not anti-Semitic. Additionally, numerous United Nations resolutions criticizing Israel on human rights abuses have been proposed, though they are often vetoed by the United States. Israel’s actions have caused much criticism on the left, and pro-Palestinian groups are active on college campuses across the nation. This definition means that any of these actions and much of the activism surrounding this issue may be considered anti-Semitic and will thus be stifled in universities that receive federal funding. Since most universities receive federal funding, universities across the country may take a hard line on anti-Zionism to ensure their funding is secure.
Anti-Semitism is a real problem. Judaism, however, should be protected by the federal government as a religion, not under Title VI. Trump’s executive order invokes anti-Semitic stereotypes, assumes Jews are a homogenous group, and stifles speech. Given the President’s numerous anti-Semitic comments, it is reasonable to assume that this order is a political move to energize his Evangelical Christian base and solidify Israeli support, much like when he moved the American embassy to Jerusalem. Jewish Americans should not see this executive order as a comfort; it is a danger to freedom for us all.

9/11, Islamophobia, and False Unity
The fiery explosion overhead, rubble falling, people screaming; uncertainty fills the air along with the dust. Then, another plane hits. People are dying. Heroes are suffocating while jumpers are leaping from the fire. An outpouring of support floods to the US, its government, and the survivors. Blood donations more than double. Presidential approval ratings skyrocket through the roof, reaching 90%, according to Gallup. America has reached a moment of “national unity” unrivalled in recent history, not a unity around a positive ideal, but one centered on hatred of Muslims.
On the 18th anniversary of 9/11, I was scrolling through Twitter and I saw pundit after pundit quoting the (albeit true) statistics of how united the U.S., and the whole world, was behind our government. Every U.S. ally supported the war. Even Russia helped. But who was the enemy? Al Qaeda, surely. But Al Qaeda say they’re Muslim! They’re also brown! That time period caused the highest-ever surge in hate crimes against Muslims. According to the FBI, hate crimes against Muslims jumped from 28 incidents in 2000 to 481 the following year, an increase of over 1600%. Harassment against Muslims skyrockets as well. Muslims were placed on registries, received extra scrutiny at the brand-new TSA checkpoints, spat on by strangers, and monitored by the government. Even non-Muslim brown folk were targeted. How many Sikh people have died at the hands of an ignorant white man, whose eyes burned with hatred at the sight of someone different? The murder of Balbir Singh Sodhi, a Sikh man mistaken as a Muslim by a vengeful white man was right after the attacks. The FBI did not record statistics of incidents against Sikh people at the time, so there may have been many other incidents that went under the radar.
Meanwhile, the Patriot Act was passed overwhelmingly. What else is under attack? Privacy is a safe haven for terrorists. Criticizing the war is “un-American” and “unpatriotic.” Fighting for individual liberty is “wanting the terrorists to win.” Democrats fall in line behind the new rhetoric. All the while, hatred and Islamophobia burn. As the news spreads like wildfire, kids in class turn to look at the brown kids. “Are you a terrorist?” they ask innocently, their eyes wide with fear, echoing the assumptions they see and hear from their parents, the media, and the president himself. Neighbors watch suspiciously, communities close off. My parents, on a fast track to citizenship through my dad’s job, found their papers no longer moved. Coworkers no longer speak to him as often. Employers approach others with opportunities and tasks first. My father changes jobs to go somewhere better.
Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security is created. The government starts spying on everyone. Intelligence operations ramp up and torture is excused to “protect America.” And when “weapons of mass destruction” are found, the spark lands on a truckload of gasoline. America flies into a war. Cash is used so quickly it might as well have been on fire. Thousands die as a result: innocent, hardworking people who now fear the blue sky for the fire it can drop from invisible specks far above. “Collateral damage.” The 9/11 attacks are recreated hundreds of times on foreign soil. Brown people are massacred for the sake of quelling terrorism. A conservative estimate puts the Iraqi death toll in the first few years of the Iraq war at 150,000. Saddam Hussein’s government is toppled. But the invasion ignites hatred where there was none before. People who had never had a reason to hate America now had their families slaughtered. Children were raised in an occupied area. They see soldiers, dressed in bulky gear, breaking down their doors. They grow to hate these invaders. In the two years after the American invasion of Iraq, there were 9,200 recorded Iraqi civilian deaths at the hands of Americans and their allies, more than three times the number of Americans killed in 9/11. Imagine 9/11, occurring not once, not twice, but three times, on a population that was less than a tenth of the size of America’s. To have the same scale as American-caused civilian deaths in Iraq, America would need to experience 30 9/11 attacks. That’s the amount of devastation America caused in just two years. This drags on for years and years as the region dissolves into chaos: the American death toll is 4,424; the Iraqi civilian death toll is approximately 200,000; the insurgent death toll is about 23,000. In Afghanistan, the American death toll is 2,353. Meanwhile, over 31,000 Afghani civilian deaths have been recorded. Over 111,000 Afghans total have died in the conflict.
How many Sikh people have died at the hands of an ignorant white man, whose eyes burned with hatred at the sight of someone different?
American soldiers, raised in a hateful environment, who have been groomed from a young age to fight for the notion of “freedom in their homeland,” barely adults, some under 18, march out to fight terrorist fighters, raised in a hateful environment, who have been groomed from a young age to fight for the notion of “freedom in their homeland,” barely adults, some under 18. They both use explosive materials: one army with explosives mass-produced by companies who have a vested interest in war, another with explosives slapped together by youth who learned from a variety of places, some material from Iran and other countries, who have a vested interest in the chaos to keep them powerful. An explosion blows up under someone’s feet, leaving behind a blackened corpse. The remains are taken home, where the youth is lauded as a someone who “died for his country.” If it was difficult to discern which side is being spoken about, then you realize how blurred the lines became. Who was right? Who was wrong?
For years, this war continues. A Democratic administration takes power, promising peace and claiming to support human rights. However, money continues to be funneled into the production of killing machines, which make their way overseas to mow down brown people by the thousands. 18 years after America invaded Afghanistan, little American kids who were born after the war started are still dying there. But before that, a presidential candidate plays on the fears that still exist in the hearts of many Americans. An ember before, the rhetoric blows over them, allowing it to catch. The idea for a ban on Muslims entering the country is proposed by Donald J. Trump, and a sizeable portion of the United States agrees, the conversations they held behind closed doors and around the Thanksgiving table spilling to the national stage. Particularly in rural America, racists masked as conservatives get excited at the prospect. Anyone who stops “others” from entering the country is ideal. “Let’s just stop those Muslims from coming in!” They’re elated that someone on the national stage is exactly echoing their racist thoughts and ideas. They say they support Trump because he says what’s on his mind, but truly, it’s because he says what’s on their minds. Finally, someone is willing to be outwardly Islamophobic without hiding it like other Republicans had in the past.
I’m 15 now, finally old enough to notice these trends as my neighbors plant Trump signs on their lawns. I walk through the high school, and I see shirts and red hats. One of my best friends stands in support of Trump and I get sick to my stomach, realizing that my humanity was a compromise for them. I can’t wait to leave the school day—to leave the town, really, and go to college. But then I think about my sister, her hijab a bright target, and I get angry. I sigh with relief when another potentially Islamophobic comment ends, my existence not obviously offending. But my sister must endure it. Teachers do nothing to stop it. It’s a resurgence to the post-9/11 era. Hate crimes surge once more. The KKK masks that covered online profiles are removed, and Neo-Nazis exalt in their newfound mainstream support. The “alt-right” mobilizes, the media giving them a platform to spread Neo-Nazi ideology. Fox News provides a “fair and balanced” perspective that Muslims are a threat to the nation. Old, white retirees on their couches soak it up, their Facebook feeds filled with self-selected content that affirms their ideas. Their weird looks in shopping malls, the fake smile, and tone of voice when they speak to a non-white Christian person grates on my nerves.
But Americans ache for another moment in time when the country was united in hatred. When the voices that reminded them that Muslims are Americans too were quiet. When civil liberties were thrown into the wind. When America flew into a war that killed more people than the 9/11 attackers ever could. When 90% of Americans could support a president committing war crimes. Most of those 90% are still around today. They didn’t just disappear. Some of them changed their minds. Some have not. But all of them stood for it at one point in time. So next time you stand for the American flag and sing the national anthem, think: does this America stand for all its citizens as it expects them to stand? What truly unites us, ideals of freedom and democracy, or hatred for those who are “other”?

The shame about this guy is he raises some interesting points but he is clearly so lost in hate and completely indoctrinated that he cannot see the larger picture.
I am willing to put it out there that 50%+ were hoaxes.

So why not protest Bush/Cheney/Obama/the MIC then? Is it because he's an indoctrinated attention whore and anything short of shitting on 9/11 victims themselves is passe in his little clique of leftist attention whores?

A good chunk of lefties are hardcore atheist, so they don't believe in souls. There is no divine justice, only when you are alive so you can be complete monsters while alive and do unspeakable harm to others, and if you can get power and wealth while being a tyrant who destroys other peoples lives, then you'll NEVER EVER face any consequences to your actions because when you die? You cease to exist, meaning that you got away with your evil and NO ONE CAN EVER PUNISH YOU FOR YOUR CRIMES AND SINS.
And the other half are literal "the ends justify the means" type fanatics who, even when they are told at the Pearly Gates of Heaven their crimes and that they are condemned to Hell eternal, will deny they did anything wrong even as they are cast into the lake of fire, because Hell/Satan would take one look at their egos and narcissisms and say "no tailor made eternal damnation for this sick fuck, it's the lake of fire to burn like the rabble sinners", because it's easier for Satan to make them burn in a lake of fire with rapists, killers, and other sinners than to make a custom made eternal torment that the leftie 100% refuses to acknowledge as being deserving and having to constantly spell out why they are in hell and why what they did on Earth pissed off God to the degree that he barred them from heaven.

It's pure ego; same problem RBG had.
Breyer just doesn't want to give up the power he has as an unelected political figure who can make law via judicial decree with only death as the sole thing that can remove him from his position of power.
If Breyer resigns, he's never going to have that sort of ultimate power ever again and will probably spend the remaining years he has left, eternally butt-hurt because he's now just an average joe, worse an average joe who the DNC didn't have the mainstream media sucking off 24-7 like they RBG in her final years.
And if there are any excuses being thrown around, it's probably the fact that Bryer KNOWS that McConnell will cock block Biden from naming a replacement and using that to further cling to his power until he finally dies. So Biden can't just make him resign to be replaced with a younger judge.

I almost wish he would resign and get replaced now though. If he holds on another 3 years and Trump gets back in, it'll seem great to have yet another conservative (or "conservative") appointee, but the left will go in harder than ever for court packing and demanding either a "balanced" court or term limits, maybe even a court that changes with Presidents.

But then while I'm assuming the Left could act in good faith and honest negotiation, I may as well assume a world of unicorns and rivers made of booze.
EDIT: I had mixed up the video. Now posted the correct one.

Fuck that, they will not stop or slow down for anything. Their aim is nothing less than the genocide of Whites and the destruction of American. There is no appeasement, no compromise, only a final, fatal struggle. Any attempts to delay them will result in your grandchildren, instead of your children, getting raped to death.

I've always loved how they act like Hell will just be some city or something ruled by a dude who happens to be red with horns. They'll be able to party all the time and have little gay field trips and shit.
Not, you know, eternal torment.

They want to blow you up. They're literally saying this.
Bush Jr. just gave a speech saying that we should confront domestic extremists with the same vigor that we did foreign terrorists.
That means air strikes on you, your family and your community.
There's a reason they keep calling Jan 6 a terrorist event. And there's a reason they're trying to push the definition of "terrorism" to include anti-mandate and anti-lockdown.
It's because they're trying to justify violence. That's the only place this road ends.
I used to think the increase in polarizing hyperbole from politicians is just a sign of the social media age, where they know the most effective way to get their message to spread is to present it in the most extreme way possible. While that may still be true, I'm not going to be naïve to the other signs.
They are trying to prime their base to accept violence against the out-group. I know twitter isn't real life, but I can't say I'm thrilled about how well it seems to be working. Jimmy Kimmel isn't twitter, and that motherfucker is already trying to get his audience on board with the fact that we should just let certain people die without hospital care.
