You see, at some point you need a shield around the reactor to actually absorb all the high energy particles released, and turn that energy into heat.

So we have to replace a few tons of shielding that's lightly radioactive every 2-6 years. That's literally a vehicle's worth of waste to power tens of thousands of homes.

We've already paid for it though. That's why we built Yucca Mountain.

Pay no attention to the Hezbollah operated tunnel system near the compounds lookout tower.

I think it's this guy. Don't quote me, but I think he's Trump's internal pollster guy. Apparently him an his outfit released a lot of polls that favored Trump and normally polls are released somewhat strategically (in Nate Silver's experience) rather than wholesale.

Nixon was explicitly pardoned to avoid prosecution for his crimes.

Congress didn't have to stop the impeachment of Nixon. They chose too because Nixon agreed to never run for office again.

If we want that to change we need an Amendment that established an Independent, non-partisan Prosecutor whose job it is to prosecute Presidents and former Presidents.
