Perhaps some of our legal eagles can explain what ‘leaving bankruptcy protection’ means. I think I know, but I’d appreciate an explanation from one of our experts.

AOC has introduced [articles of impeachment](https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/aoc-files-articles-of-impeachment-against-supreme-court-justices-clarence-thomas-and-samuel-alito/ar-BB1pKYku?ocid=BingNewsSerp) against Thomas and Alito. It probably won’t go anywhere but it’s good to see the possibility raised. Remind the country that it IS possible to remove judges for corruption.

There’s certainly more grounds for impeaching these two than anything the House GOP came up with against Biden. Of course it will go nowhere, but I agree it’s a strong symbolic gesture.

If we’re still a democracy in 2032, I’m all in on AOC for president.

NYTimes unable to get exclusive interview with H20 and in a series of editorials heavily indicates water may be unable to serve the hydration needs of human beings though admits there may be no better options.

On page 3, mentions in passing that drinking bleach might be worse than drinking water. Or something like that.

She’d be free of the Con Man. The additional elements of the Prenup that she extracted to have her move to the White House kick in. She and Barron could go back to Slovenia (she insisted on a dual citizenship for Barron). Though she’d probably stay in New York with all the contacts she’s made.
