Checks and balances, bitches. System working as intended. It's a good day.

Only works if the check and balances have consequences :|

"So far, the issue hasn't affected von der Leyen's candidacy as she quickly became the consensus nomination among the main political forces in the last mandate – EPP, S&D and Renew Europe."

So much for consequences lol. Her entire career has basically been failing upwards with the unanimous support of everyone around her despite being incompetent every step of the way. It's as if there's an agenda here to get her to power and make sure she stays there.

it's not incompetent if it was intended. she did exactly what she was supposed to do, which was absolutely nothing except making a lot of money for third parties

Stanford is a great club to be in!
