Republicans in Wisconsin are threatening to impeach a recently elected state Supreme Court justice and raised the possibility of doing the same to the state’s election director.
A Georgia Republican called for impeaching the Fulton County prosecutor who brought racketeering charges against former President Donald Trump. Republicans in the Pennsylvania House have already impeached the top prosecutor in Philadelphia.
None of the targets met the bar traditionally set for impeachment — credible allegations of committing a crime while in office. Their offense: staking out positions legislative Republicans didn’t like.
As Republicans in Congress begin their impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, the process is calling attention to the increasing use of impeachment in the states as a partisan political weapon rather than as a step of last resort for officeholders believed to have committed a serious offense.
The only part of our society that hasn’t let me down is NASA.
Every other public sector and service has been enshitified long ago. Neoliberalism changed the attitude of government purpose. No longer ensuring a playing field where all actors are bound by the same rules, no longer concerned with helping to build strong, intelligent self sufficient citizenry.
Now it’s only the dollar. And whomever stabs the person next to them in the back to take it.

At least there’s a nobel purpose for us
Revenging.
Time to clean the gene pool.
