How big does a human hand thriving in the UK get?
There's precedent for it, with West Virginia. The problem is that the way that the Senate works makes what could have been a local issue extremely national.
Yes. Good for him, and for everyone who got to use his road too!
Note that
Despite the Kelston Toll Road not being approved by the local council, Watts hadn’t committed a crime.
The road was in use for 14 weeks before the council asked for retrospective approval and the nearby highway A431 reopened early.
He stopped because there was no longer construction for drivers to avoid by paying his toll.
What fraction is under 18? It's hard to tell by looking at the graph. I want to calculate what ratio of combatants to civilians killed a number of 70% implies.
Many senior Democrats were calling on Biden to resign long before he got covid, but he repeatedly made defiant announcements that he would never resign (and Harris supported him). He's the guy who said that he would only resign if God told him to! His covid infection appears to have been mild (lasting less than a week), and he resigned not because of it but because pretty much the entire Democratic establishment (led by Pelosi) told him that he must.
There are two components to this question. Did many in the working class feel that Democrats had abandoned them? And is Trump's economic policy actually better for the working class than Harris's? I think the answers are "yes" and "probably no". However, voters don't listen to economists. If they're not happy with the status quo, they vote for disrupting the status quo even if experts tell them that that's a bad idea.
I suppose Sanders thinks that the working class would have supported a Democratic candidate who proposed a leftward (as opposed to Trump's rightward) disruption. My guess is that that isn't true and socialism is still a dirty word in America, but who knows?
If the quotes are accurate then I think my original reply still stands, just without that first paragraph. I don't understand how anyone could argue that the Israeli army has already achieved all its objectives in Gaza. Maybe it should withdraw because the remaining objectives are impossible to achieve, but that's a different matter.
Petty leftists weren't even a significant part of the problem, IMO. Biden is very unpopular, people didn't want more of the same, and Biden's vice president looked like more of the same. However, the Democratic party was too hierarchical to nominate the sort of candidate that they needed to nominate.
Hell, they nominated Biden himself even though his age could have given them a perfect excuse not to nominate a sitting president. He was only forced to step aside once his inadequacies were undeniably obvious to all, and even then he was like a child throwing a tantrum. History is going to remember him as the emperor with no clothes.
I see. That makes this hard to interpret, given that a lot depends on the specific language that he used.

Man, this hits close to home. Just yesterday I decided to get in touch with an old friend from college and I found out that she had died in a car accident years ago, not long after I lost touch with her. Don't put things off, folks.
