    "That's because the vice president frequently serves as one of the president's closest advisors. So these private conversations would not be able to be used as evidence. Now, some people are remarking back to the Nixon tapes, and if the Nixon, if that whole Watergate system thing happened again tomorrow, those tapes would not be able to be admissible into the court as evidence. And then there was one more caveat to this, and Justice Roberts wrote that quote."

  • @Phil | SCOTUS Watch: Is July 1, 2024 the date America has become a Corporatocracy?

    "Now, as I look at this, I see I absolutely cannot be convinced otherwise that the corporations, through the US Chamber of Commerce definitely have input into the judicial system. This past week really confirmed that for me. And I'd even make the suggestion that as of today, we pretty much could be thought of as a corporateocracy. If you believe that corporations can control the economy by pricing and controlling pricing, then I think you would really have a very, very strong case."

    "I'm sure that that was an attempt at a joke, but I watched this speech and it was very cringey. And this was in his hometown, and his hometown wasn't really, there was awkward silences and it was strange, to say the least."

  • @Phil | Can AI govern us better than humans?

    "I think we would actually save money, become much more efficient, and get a lot more things done, especially at that agency level. But I think the real power of AI in the governance of us all is just the analyst, the analysis of big data. We are a government for the people, by the people. We elect elected officials to represent us. Now, there's not going to be a person that can represent everything that you stand for."

  • @Phil | The Debate: My High level takeaways

    "Now, there was talk about the fact checks. And listen, from what Trump talked about and what Kamala Harris talked about, as far as when you, when you start talking about what are facts and what aren't, it's night and day, it's apples, bowling balls here. I mean, Donald Trump was going on some Ralph Wiggum type tirades, including the newest conspiracy around Haitians eating pets in Springfield, Ohio. I really can't believe he went there."

  • @Phil | Election: A look back at Doug Jones" win in Alabama and it's relevancy to 2024

    "In 2017, there was a special election for an open Senate seat in the state of Alabama. This race was significant. It was significant because a Democrat actually won this, putting a Democrat in a staunchly republican state that had not voted for a Democrat into the US Senate in over two decades. Now, you may remember this, it was between Doug Jones and the Democrat, and Roy Moore, the Republican."

    "The actual case is so complex. I think it's going to outlive Donald Trump, to be honest. Really, it comes down to the people. And the people need to take a look at this, decide, did he know what he was doing? Was this intentional? And is this something that I find him guilty for and do so, yes or no with their vote?"
