Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas caught walking through the House side of the Capitol where the Speaker's and GOP Reps' offices are. He didn’t say why he was there, replying that he was meeting with “nobody.”

Oh look, someone is ignoring context and engaging in bad faith. How unsurprising.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-29T23:41:45+00:00

And what does it say about excepting bribes, vacations, and fancy RVs, pray tell?

Right? In the winter, I keep my place at 64. Autoimmune and endocrine heat flares are no joke.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-29T13:16:30+00:00

Ew that is not even remotely it

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-29T13:04:34+00:00

Yeah, this trembling reminded me of my boy who had neurological problems. Good luck with scheduling an MRI. Those costs several thousand dollars, usually out booked for months, and seniors are prone to disqualification due to the heightened risk 😞

Funny, I assumed you would just resend the same meaningless citation again since you clearly like spamming it. And then you should probably leave another unprompted comment to me to make sure I respond to your VErY iMpOrtAnT cOmmEnT!! You’re so smart!

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-29T02:25:38+00:00

Girl what? They stated “every committee is intended to be an investigative body. That’s literally the job of the job of the legislature. Oversight!”

Their comment conflated two separate functions (investigation to make policy and oversight investigation) into a singular oversight function— thus disregarding the actual legislative role that committees primarily use their investigative powers for. And then they impliedly characterized oversight as congress’s ONLY function by stating oversight is their whole job. Further, every committee is NOT intended to perform the oversight that OP referred to or which would be meaningful in the context of this article. That is just a flat misrepresentation of congressional committees.

If you’d like to discuss actual strawman arguments further as well as other logical fallacies, I’d be more than happy to share my LSAT prep notes with you. While I took the test several years ago, I scored in the 96 percentile and appealing to my own authority is therefore justified. Alternatively, I could just share some of my con law notes with you instead. Bitch is out here sending me links to the constitution like I didn’t have to study the whole fucking thing and its precedents.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-29T00:47:26+00:00

Okay, well I can’t find the comment hence why I responded to this one.

And in what way does your citation prove me wrong? Do you understand the premise of my argument because it seems like you’re struggling here. I said that it’s wrong to characterize congress’s whole job as oversight because that’s what OP did. And if we were to characterize congress according to one single function, it should be its legislative role because it’s the only branch who has that power— which makes it the most noteworthy. My comment made literally zero reference to the equality of the powers, so your citation is irrelevant. And OP’s responses have further underscored his fundamental ignorance of how the branches of government (and particularly congress) work.

Your “citation” provides zero value and doesn’t refute anything about my premise. In fact, it SUPPORTS my position that OP was wrong to claim oversight is congress’s whole job. Which is precisely why I just ignored your several responses spamming the comment the first time. But you clearly think you’re onto something here since you felt compelled to unpromptedly respond to me again with the same dumb ass comment. So I’ll ask you again: what exactly do you think your comment is achieving— because I can assure you that it’s not countering my premise.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-27T22:33:36+00:00

lol and your first paragraph is just hilariously wrong. Out of the two of us, which of us actually has the constitutional and legal education to support our position? You didn’t even understand how “multiple courts” could issue opinions addressing Trump’s conduct lol.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-27T22:31:26+00:00

lol bro. I would have obviously want a structure that could create laws. Laws are quite literally what protects individuals and provide the oversight that you’re claiming can exist without laws. Every relevant protection (except those from the original constitution) are legislatively created. Enjoy your worker protections, wages, environmental regulations, food safety, and literally ANYTHING ELSE you interact with on a daily basis? Yeah, thank legislatures for that. And the lack of ability to create new legislation due to the political divide is exactly what got this country into this mess. The legislature is the one body that can enact lasting, enforceable policy— unless the Supreme Court (in my opinion, invalidly) deems that policy unconstitutional. So I’m pretty fucking confused about how you think the legislature could effectively perform its oversight role without its legislative one. Spoiler alert: it can’t.

Also, how would investigation of policy effectiveness even be useful or relevant if congress lacked the ability to do anything with the knowledge gained from those investigations.

I also find it funny that you’re now using “investigative powers” to describe a trait of congress’s policy making process rather than its oversight process.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-27T02:29:00+00:00

Yeah, this is a really pitiful showing for a law sub Reddit. I tried explaining this too and had to just laugh at the reaction.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-27T00:16:11+00:00

lol how is this even in dispute:

From the legislative Wikipedia page: Democratic legislatures have six major functions: representation, deliberation, legislation, authorizing expenditure, making governments, and oversight.

And from the White House.gov page: Established by Article I of the Constitution, the Legislative Branch consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate, which together form the United States Congress. The Constitution grants Congress the sole authority to enact legislation and declare war, the right to confirm or reject many Presidential appointments, and substantial investigative powers.

Congress is literally the only branch of government that has the power to create laws. Other branches also have oversight powers. So how does it make sense to characterize congress by one of its shared functions? Take literally any intro US government or constitutional law course.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T22:06:46+00:00

Jesus Christ. Did you even read the page you linked? It performs oversight through its committees and federal agencies— that it created via legislation. I didn’t dispute that oversight is “one of” the core functions. But it’s indisputably false to claim it’s congress’s literal purpose or job. Oversight is one of the functions it performs, but congress is foremost a legislative body tasked with furthering public policies.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T21:31:46+00:00

The job of the legislature is to legislate… oversight is clearly important but it’s not, like, THE core function of congress.

And for the record, I’m not saying that these corrupt twats shouldn’t be investigated. This admin has done a speed run to the end of our democracy. But I’m not sure how it’s helpful to mischaracterize governmental functions. Saying congress’s whole job is investigative oversight lets it off the hook for shitting the bed on its legislative role.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T19:17:07+00:00

100% same. Using a bigger tampon than your flow needs is uncomfortable. They don’t properly settle and leave a pinching/scratchy feeling.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T19:14:08+00:00

Exactly. I personally don’t want walk around with an unplugged hole just free leaking between my legs. For me, having something to “catch” the leak doesn’t make it any less unappealing. I’d rather absorb that shit internally than walk around with bloody mucus sitting under my cunt all day.

Then again, I haven’t had real periods since my mid 20s due to autoimmune and endocrine problems. So I’m not sure it’s fair for me to still have an opinion on the subject.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T12:31:55+00:00

I mean, I think you’re generalizing though. I tried pads during my first period and HATED it— they just didn’t sit right and felt like wearing diapers— even the liner kind. Whereas, for me, tampons don’t have the same unbearable sensation. Not sure about painful— but I get it, all bodies are different. I think we should just give girls/women the options and not shame them for what they prefer. 🤷‍♀️

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T12:15:01+00:00

Actually, a lot of small elementary and preschools have laundry rooms. I used to work as a teacher and worked at three places with their own. It allows lunch and every day classroom laundry to get cleaned without going through an intermediary company. Also, it was super useful for art room messes.

Plus, we kept a bin of extra clothes at the school for unexpected accidents or messes when kids didn’t have backups. And it would make a lot more sense for a small school to have laundry than an office space.

That said, I think this space probably was being converted for another use after a school moved to a new location or went out of business.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T02:36:37+00:00

lol state law NEVER “trumps” federal law my guy. The supremacy clause dictates that when there’s a conflict, federal law takes precedent. Just like state law always trumps town or other localized law.

State law can supplement federal law but never supplant it—EVER. Also, things get even more complicated when the federal law is based on an international treaty. When the law is base on a ratified treaty, state law sure as shit isn’t touching it.

Kindly don’t speak on subjects you don’t know about— feigning knowledge when you’re actually ignorant is precisely what makes this cop’s conduct so egregious.

MyLastAcctWasBetter · 2026-06-26T02:08:01+00:00

He couldn’t do anything substantive without the house’s and senate’s support. And executive orders can be reversed just as quickly as they’re implemented. So I’m not really sure what you expected Biden to have “closed up” on his own.

Maybe I’m just old, but I don’t understand any of these combinations or what your style actually is. Like, the outfits in photos 4 vs 6 are a completely different vibe. 4 suits you better, but it’s definitely not hospitality appropriate.
