2041. After four more election cycles, that's the first year I see anyone outside of the GOP living in the White House. bc "If we win it's fair but if you win it's rigged" plus all the tricks listed in this article.

Most REPUBLICANS support the policy proposals in President #Biden’s plan
to 
️reform the Supreme Court,️ according to a new USA Today/Ipsos poll.
Biden outlined a three-pronged approach to reforming the high court in a speech last month,
calling for a #binding #code #of #conduct,
18-year #term #limits for Supreme Court justices,
and a Constitutional amendment declaring no one — not even the president — is #above #the #law.

Wildfires are thawing the tundra
Researchers discovered recently burned areas emit more methane gas than the rest of the landscape
Chunks of carbon-rich frozen soil, or #permafrost, undergird much of the Arctic tundra.
This perpetually frozen layer sequesters carbon from the atmosphere, sometimes
storing it for tens of thousands of years beneath the boggy ground.
The frozen soil is insulated by a cool wet blanket of plant litter, moss and peat.
But if that blanket is incinerated by a 
tundra wildfire, the permafrost becomes vulnerable to thawing.
And 
when permafrost thaws, it releases the ancient carbon, which microbes in the soil then convert into 
methane — a potent greenhouse gas whose release contributes to climate change and the radical reshaping of Northern latitudes across the globe.
Research published last month in Environmental Research Letters, a scientific journal, found that 
methane hot spots on the tundra are more likely to be found in places where wildfires burned recently.
The study focused on Alaska’s largest river delta, the Yukon-Kuskokwim, an area previously identified as emitting large amounts of methane.
A team of scientists with NASA’s #ABoVE project (Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment), which studies environmental change in Alaska and Western Canada, were curious about the cause of those methane hot spots, which were observed using aerial surveys in 2018. So lead author Elizabeth Yoseph, an intern at the time, overlaid maps of those areas with recent fire activity.
Her team found that the hot spots were almost 30% more likely to occur in areas that had experienced wildfire in the last 50 years than in unburned areas, 
a likelihood that jumped to nearly 90% if the fire’s perimeters touched water.
Recently burned wetlands with especially carbon-rich soil had the highest ratio of hot spots. “Fires are an important influence on increasing emissions,” Yoseph said.

Supreme Court justices demolished for using 'misdirection' to hide personal lawlessness
Legal expert #Walter #Shaub took issue with the arrogance of the court -- Chief Justice #John #Roberts included -- for refusing to be #accountable to anyone but themselves while dismissing the authority of the Judicial Conference of the United States to review any accusations.
As Shaub put it, the current conservative-majority court is putting on display "a culture of exceptionalism, where the Supreme Court’s justices just feel that they’re #above #law, above #question and above everything else in the government."
With Wolf citing the ethical clouds hovering over Associate Justices Clarence #Thomas and his wife Ginni, Neil #Gorsuch and new questions now being raised about Roberts' wife Jane raking in "$10.3 million in commissions for her work for elite law firms, one of which argued a case before her husband," Shaub claimed the court's defensive letter rings hollow.
"They know that until one party controls 60% of the Senate, they’re never going to be impeached. So this is a case, I think, of absolute power corrupting absolutely."
