That’s a rather sharp assumption.

It won’t happen, The Repubs own the House and Senate right now. The only way for an impeachment to happen, would be for them to turn on him. They won’t do that until and unless they profit from it (right and wrong be damned).

Too late now, anyway. The media is full of scorn for how little Trump did during his first 100 days, but even if he does nothing but play golf till 2020, he’s already done more than enough by appointing a young, healthy, ultra-conservative man to the Supreme Court, where he will rule for probably the next 50 years.

You think Gorsuch is going to make it to 99 years old?

Yes. We’re already on the verge of controlling or curing the most common causes of death, and there is very promising research on anti-aging. I would guess that for rich people, at least, lifespans of over 100 will become commonplace within 20 years or so.

If Gorsuch dies tomorrow, won’t you feel embarrassed.

This is about Sessions, not Trump, but since Trump picked him for AG, it’s Trump’s fault.

And no, it’s not about a judge on an island in the Pacific. That’s old news already. It’s about [this DOJ press release](https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/department-justice-sends-letter-nine-jurisdictions-requiring-proof-compliance-8-usc-1373):

> [@](#):
>
> many of these jurisdictions are also crumbling under the weight of illegal immigration and violent crime. The number of murders in Chicago has skyrocketed, rising more than 50 percent from the 2015 levels. New York City continues to see gang murder after gang murder, the predictable consequence of the city’s “soft on crime” stance. And just several weeks ago in California’s Bay Area, after a raid captured 11 MS-13 members on charges including murder, extortion and drug trafficking, city officials seemed more concerned with reassuring illegal immigrants that the raid was unrelated to immigration than with warning other MS-13 members that they were next.

NYPD Police Commissioner O’Neill [absolutely killed it with the response](https://twitter.com/NYPDnews/status/855540741589934081), saying that murders in NYC in 2016 were down 82% since 1993, shootings down 81% (to the lowest number since they started keeping records), crime overall down 76%, and so far crime in 2017 is down 17% from this time last year.  
“Even w/ a million more people, #NYC now has 1/5th the crime of 1990. Sound like we’re soft on crime?” [he tweeted](https://twitter.com/NYPDONeill/status/855569362199203840).

Sessions’ brain can’t decide whether it’s in the 1980s (when large parts of NYC really were the proverbial urban hellhole) or in the 1950s (when Hawaii wasn’t yet a state).

Not only that, but some scientists believe that the first person who will live to be 150 has already been born (though it is probably not Gosuch). [We live in an age of miracles and wonders.](https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-08-08/first-person-live-150-has-already-been-born-it-you)

I’m sure there are going to be a huge amount of these tremendous neo-punk bands called “Bad Hombres” and “Alternative Facts” ( also “Bad Hombre And The Alternative Facts” ).

And of course there will be this band called “Nasty Women”. Those losers are going to FAIL bigly.
