This is important. I know lots of people in the oil & gas industry. The workers have been suffering with the slow economy and low price of oil. We need everyone to get back to normal, raise the price of oil so companies will start producing/exploring again, and we can all get raises again instead of pay cuts.
I know higher gas prices suck, but remember those higher prices at the pump are often supporting your oil & gas industry neighbors.
One of the arguments made in the Texas suit alleges Texas will suffer damage (which is important if you want to bring a lawsuit) if the Vice-President is elected as they will control the Senate if both GA races tilt Democrat.
Because of this, SCOTUS might wait until after the GA election but if they do, then I don't think the current election will be overturned as the time for the Electoral College to vote will have passed. Now, if the election is in the House of Representatives, they MIGHT could push it until then. Because I don't think the new House & Senate will vote on the Presidential election under the 12th Amendment until AFTER January 6th - 1 day after the GA election.
But if SCOTUS decides to hinge everything on the GA election, that's going to really throw a monkey wrench into everything.
Just my opinion.

And yes, the two teens really did get off with probation after killing the man in a fistfight.
This is a concern with any growth. Think of it like startups, the founder comes in with a specific vision and it takes off. But growth always brings more people into leadership positions. Those people MUST be vetted to ensure they have the same founding principles in mind.
What makes this easier is to have something written in stone that says "these are the rules we live by." The less that is up for debate, the better.
Here's to a new day of internet freedom.
