The moves that Trump has made not just to ignore climate change, but to deliberately hasten it, have to be undone as a matter of immediate priority IMO.

While Biden has promised to end new permitting for drilling on federal lands, many companies hoarded permits in the run-up to the election, according to previous Reuters reporting.
“If there is a 30-year lease, you can’t take it away. A lease is binding for its term,” Gerrard said.
The Interior Department under Trump auctioned more than 24 million acres of land, an area larger than Indiana, according to the House Natural Resources committee.

Much of Trump's enviro-protecting rollbacks were via executive order - can't much could be restored in fairly short order? And if nothing other than for reasons of political expediency, watch some GOP members of the Senate read the tealeaves (i.e. doubt enviro-related motions will be 100% split along party lines). They can sell energy independence all they want but that ship will eventually sail if it's attached to "scarring the landscape"

Renewable resources are a great way to promote new jobs or transition from older resource jobs. This shouldn’t be too difficult a sell based solely on merits.

Oh FFS do I have to do my Meg Whitman rant yet freaking again? She isn't even good at being a capitalist.
-
I guess the Biden camp thinks that their cabinet posts have to be confirmed by a GOP senate, so there's no point in trying to get anyone he really wants past Mitch McConnell. That may be why you see all these recycled moderates listed as potentials.
Then again, there's this:
https://prospect.org/politics/we-dont-have-to-live-in-mitch-mcconnells-world/
In this, it points out that Biden can just use the Vacancies Act like Trump did over and over again, and appoint an endless supply of "Acting" posts with whoever the freak he wants. Or he could appoint posts in recess (read the article).
Basically, you can play fair and lose to McConnell every time, or beat them at their own game and not give a freak because Turtle sure doesn't.
Then again, maybe Biden would rather try to mend fences that blow them up.

I don't mean shitty as in not committed to the cause, I mean shitty as in not any good at it. I have over the years worked quite a lot with HP and have a fair amount of familiarity with the organization, and her time in charge of that company was criminally bad. Some of the decisions and strategic moves she made as their chief made me wonder whether she actually had the first clue about the market in which she was operating.
I'm not sure what her husband's knowledge of which tubes go in which sockets in the human brain has to do with it.

Fair point (though she hit it out of the park with Ebay; whiffed with HP [bad Automony move] and Quibi). That said (and fwiw) why would a company such as Proctor & Gamble keep an Adam Gate-type capitalist on their board of directors? She's the 5th richest gash in California and as far as her equally 'alma mater lettered' hubby goes, she knew well enough NOT to hitch her wagon to Dr. Joe Blow, Harvard Community College. Again, I get your point, but she (Princeton/Haarvaard) is not a good capitalist (per se)? ?

She's a committed capitalist, I'm just never going to trust someone who failed to succeed with a gilt-edged company like HP. It's almost as bad as bankrupting a casino, if you can imagine that someone could be as inept a businessperson as to achieve that.

I got flipped off by a Trump parade in my rural Tennessee town. There were about a dozen pickup trucks and POS cars with Trump flags.

My beef with Whitman has to do with her importing that creepy/weird Brit kiddie show Telatubbies. Curiously, while she ran for governor as a Republican she did support both Hillary in '16 and Joe Biden in '20.

I think we're all in agreement that she shouldn't be in charge of anything more consequential than a lemonade stand.

I saw a law blog linked elsewhere the other day that laid out the rationale for a 13 member SCOTUS, basically saying that the number of circuits (or appeals courts maybe? I am an ignoramus when it comes to such things) has expanded to 13 but SCOTUS hasn't followed suit. I have no idea whether it makes sense or not.

While Reid rashly pulled the nuclear option as an obvious power play, it did not (at the time) apply to Supreme Court nominations. Fast forward to McConnell's own tit-for-tat nuclear option which was "two wrongs don't make a right" stupid made even more damaging by extending it to SCOTUS nominations.

Asserting that old people aren't worth keeping alive is... bad
-
Asserting that old people aren't worth keeping alive is... bad
I agree, so it's just as well he didn't do that. He talks about the decreasing utility of old people in economic terms, the fact that treatments are delivering additional quantity of life without commensurate additional quality, and that he has no desire personally to have his life artificially extended when he doesn't feel that it's providing value.
Lots of presidents and lots of politicians say, “Children are our most valuable resource.” But we as a country don’t behave like that. We don’t invest in children the way we invest in adults, especially older adults. One of the statistics I like to point out is if you look at the federal budget, $7 goes to people over 65 for every dollar for people under 18.
I don't think that that is an outrageous statement. He may very well have asserted that old people aren't worth keeping alive, but he doesn't do it in this article.

Biden Covid advisor says U.S. lockdown of 4 to 6 weeks could control pandemic and revive economy
Dr. Michael Osterholm, a coronavirus advisor to President-elect Joe Biden, said a nationwide lockdown would help bring the virus under control in the U.S.
He said the government could borrow enough money to pay for a package that would cover lost income for individuals and governments during a shutdown.
"We could really watch ourselves cruising into the vaccine availability in the first and second quarter of next year while bringing back the economy long before that," he said.

It's bad in the sense that it is required or if it is the only solution but calls to avoid it due solely to the immediate economic impact are far more pernicious.
The government needs to attack the virus both through quarantines and econiomic stimulus to counteract it. The Senate seems intent on ignoring that second part or either sending that stimulus solely to big businesses or allowing them easy access to funds meant for small businesses and consumers while blaming the Democrats as if the House didn't pass a stimulus plan months ago.
Lockdowns are bad but rampant, uncontrolled infection is worse and it's only the former that the right seems to want to key on.

Yes and they've convinced themselves they carried Biden to victory despite the fact they couldn't carry Harris into Iowa or even above 5th in polling for her home state.
Basically if you took Hillary's actual supporters from 2016 (people who were pro-Hillary and not just anti-Trump or lesser of 2 evil voters) and divided them up, all the decent ones became Warren supporters and all the unhinged ones became #khive.

So at the time NYC was more concerned with curbing anti-Chinese sentiment (unfortunately a valid concern) than taking material precautions against the virus.

Kyle Rittenhouse's mom went on to Tucker Carlson's show to talk about how she's suing Biden for defaming her son. If you can get through all 2 minutes of this then you're doing way better than I managed.

very syndromic appearance and speech/mentation is somewhat 'off'. she has to be a special needs individual. i don't know if the producers of the show knew that but if they did and brought her on for an inflammatory sort of segment like that anyways, it would be an extreme level of fvcked up

Biden isn't the best candidate at all, but he may have been the best choice to get Trump out. He's done an pretty good job not getting sucked into the Trump vortex of retard arguments, ignoring his excrement fits and sticking to the issues. I imagine it's pretty damn hard to ignore and not comment on the garbage he spews, but that was the way to win.
I thought Bernie was a better candidate, even though he's too far to the left for my liking. I think Bernie would have turned off too many voters. I feel like there were a large subset of voters, perhaps enough to make a difference, that maybe didn't like Biden that much but could hold their nose and vote for him because Trump was so awful and Biden isn't going to rock the boat much. I don't know if I could say the same for Bernie.
Sure there will be some consequences with Biden being old and Kamala perhaps being in prime position to tread water for another 8 years, but I've come to peace with it as a better alternative than one more minute of Trump.

Soooooo good to go back to old-fashioned shittiness instead of Trump brand shittiness
On Tuesday, Politico reported that Biden is appointing U.S. Rep. Cedric Richmond, D-La., to lead the White House Office of Public Engagement, where he is “expected to serve as a liaison with the business community and climate change activists.”
During his 10 years in Congress, Richmond has received roughly $341,000 from donors in the oil and gas industry — the 5th highest total among House Democrats, according to previous reporting by Sludge. That includes corporate political action committee donations of $50,000 from Entergy, an electric and natural gas utility; $40,000 from ExxonMobil; and $10,000 apiece from oil companies Chevron, Phillips 66 and Valero Energy.
Richmond has raked in that money while representing a congressional district that is home to 7 of the 10 most air-polluted census tracts in the country.
Richmond has repeatedly broken with his party on major climate and environmental votes. During the climate crisis that has battered his home state of Louisiana, Richmond has joined with Republicans to vote to increase fossil fuel exports and promote pipeline development. He also voted against Democratic legislation to place pollution limits on fracking — and he voted for GOP legislation to limit the Obama administration’s authority to more stringently regulate the practice.
Overall, Richmond has received a lifetime rating of 76 percent from the League of Conservation Voters, and he scored 46 percent in 2018 — one of the lowest ratings of any Democrat in Congress.

Given his former role as the top Country’s top diplomat Kerry has the background and experience to sit at the international table.

"I know you are young. You need to learn to play chess. The Georgia Senate race IS the most important thing right now!!! (Baby steps). You are very talented but and a bit impatient. Biden is picking a cabinet that reflects the people of the US...not white old men!"
"you have to be able to compromise @AOC if he accepted it and learned from it. Otherwise you'll be left with no competent ppl around, ahem @alfranken ."
"Stop attacking members of your own party on Twitter. It’s so unprofessional. Find a common target instead. These attacks only help republicans."
"This is precisely why president-elect Biden needs to stand firm and not cater to the progressives.
They’ll never be satisfied. And in the end, their “ideas” will cost even more seats in 2022.
The Bronx doesn’t represent America. And the socialist message remains a losing one."

Fair enough. I scanned down the link you gave me without reading or investigating each one in any detail.

Here's a thought. Maybe the answer to "why is this guy bad?" shouldn't be "google it" (I did) or "here's an article listing a whole bunch of things he did wrong, like build a police station and be on the wrong end of a teacher's strike and a bunch of other things besides, oh and that thing with the kid".
You're on the same path as the Q clowns. If you want your opinions considered perhaps try sharing them like an intelligent adult instead of "hur dur google here's a funny picture Clintons bad".

I'm not remotely defending him. I didn't know anything about him, which is why I asked the question. It was a fairly simple one to answer, which Cato did. I suppose I should just be happy that Badger didn't try and do it through the medium of expressive TikTok or whatever he's using for political discussion this week.

President-elect Joe Biden on Thursday revealed that he broke his foot tripping on a rug after a shower as he chased one of his dogs and grabbed its tail.
Biden’s campaign previously explained the hairline fracture by saying Biden fell while playing with the dog, but did not mention the shower or tugging the animal’s tail.
The injury requires Biden, who turned 78 last month, to wear a boot for weeks.
“What happened was I got out of the shower. I got a dog and anybody who’s been around my house knows — dropped, little pup dropped a ball in front of me. And for me to grab the ball,” Biden told CNN journalist Jake Tapper in his first post-election joint interview with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.
“And I’m walking through this little alleyway to get to the bedroom. And I grabbed the ball like this and he ran. And I’m joking, running after him and grab his tail. And what happened was that he slid on a throw rug. And I tripped on the rug he slid on. That’s what happened. Oh man, not a very exciting story.”

They also plan to have the building — which has seen numerous virus outbreaks among staffers and top officials this year— meticulously sanitized.
Because the coronavirus can linger on surfaces for multiple days, a team deployed by the General Services Administration will go over every part of the White House's East and West Wings touched by human hands in the hours after Trump departs and Biden moves in, a spokesperson from the agency confirmed to POLITICO. That includes plans to "thoroughly clean and disinfect" all furniture, doorknobs, handrails and light switches, before Biden and his team move in. Additionally, a private contractor will provide "disinfectant misting services" to clear the air of lingering droplets.

On the one hand I feel like a city in Indiana with a population of 100,000 doesn't really bring the kind of transportation expertise that the federal role should require, but at the same time at least being a mayor of said city carries some experience and knowledge of the field which automatically elevates him above Carson whose experience of housing was "well, I've always lived in a house".
I think that roles like this are probably more about experience of political resource management than in theatre knowledge. You don't refuse to let an Infantry officer become a general because he never commanded a helicopter squadron.

I can’t believe that there would be a scenario for me to say this sentence but I think Regan will be good for the EPA.
Interior should be run by an indigenous person for the foreseeable future.

Badger is not willing to accept anyone as Transportation Secretary who doesn't have the explicit agenda of making all public transit free for everyone (actually not a terrible policy for a variety of economic reasons) and taxing private vehicle ownership to pay for it (also not the worst theoretical idea but in reality unworkable).

From the Martin Luther King Playboy interview by Alex Haley, Jan., 1965:
https://www.thedailybeast.com/alex-haleys-1965-playboy-interview-with-rev-martin-luther-king-jr
I never will forget a moment in Birmingham when a white policeman accosted a little Negro girl, seven or eight years old, who was walking in a demonstration with her mother. “What do you want?” the policeman asked her gruffly, and the little girl looked him straight in the eye and answered, “Fee-dom.” She couldn’t even pronounce it, but she knew. It was beautiful! Many times when I have been in sorely trying situations, the memory of that little one has come into my mind, and has buoyed me.

So currently the default Medicare age is 65. A common starting point is getting Part A (covers hospitalization only) and Part B (for things like doctor visits). Part A is free so taking it ASAP is a no brainer.
For people who are still working and have health insurance through their employer they may elect to not take Part B at 65, they're given a special enrollment period that lasts indefinitely while they're still both employed and insured by the employer, and they can enroll in Part B at the base premium once one of those things comes to an end.
In the event someone elects not to take Part B at 65 but doesn't have employer insurance in the meantime, they risk being penalized in the form of higher premiums if they enroll later. For example someone at 65 doesn't take Part B and isn't covered by a current employer plan, and then at age 69 they realize they ought to have it - they can be charged a 40% penalty (10% per year elapsed) on their premium price for not taking it earlier.
Personally I like policies that don't set people up to fail, and the lower starting age risks a greater penalty for the % of the population that is ignorant of the enrollment rules, which often overlaps with the population least able to afford paying any extra. So lowering the age really ought to come with a softening of those rules. There are a number of different ways it could be addressed but I'm not aware of any coupled with the age lowering proposal.
Even people who do remain employed and covered are eventually obligated to prove it later at the time they want to enroll, and increasing the likely number of years someone will remain in that status means more possible employer changes or gaps in coverage that make things messy when it comes time to submit proof.
In an age where an increasing number of enrollments are done online with no human interaction a lot of people never have this explained to them. Some are capable of doing the research, others are educated by their employer HR dept or through community outreach, but some always fall through the cracks and get screwed just because they didn't know the rules.
I don't know how well my concern translates here but I assure you I wouldn't be concerned if I didn't see enough of it already happening.
Edit: stuff like this is why I support single payer which covers you for your whole life, covers all medically necessary treatment, and cannot be taken away from you for any reason.

I find all dogs absolutely delightful and will happily get lost on The Dodo for an hour watching videos of dogs being rescued and rehomed. I can even see their value as part of how one judges a President, because many people believe that a person's attitude towards animals is reflective of their attitude towards people and that someone who isn't warm and affectionate towards animals isn't going to be any better towards people. I am one of those people with that view, and I don't trust people who don't like dogs.
I think it is enough for us to know that a leader has dogs. I don't really think we need to know their names or their backgrounds, and I don't think that their arrival at the White House needs to have a moment of time dedicated to it in the press or by WH media staff.
Still, though. They are great dogs, and they're rescues. Good for Joe.

It's funny how they say these things like they think they sound bad.
Kathleen Sgamma, president of the Western Energy Alliance, which represents oil and gas drillers in Western states, said the expected executive order is intended to delay drilling on federal lands to the point where it is no longer viable.

The Yemeni crisis came out of the Arab Spring, when several different groups attempted to overthrow the President who had been there since forever. The UN tried to broker peace, with varying degrees of success, but it never lasted. The Saudis got the President to resign and are trying to back their preferred team into power, and Trump's arms deal with them in 2017 helped them to enforce that.
I'm not sure what you think Obama and Biden could have done differently during the first years of that conflict to have stopped it?

I have some sympathy with that view, but I think that the crisis in 2021 is very different to the one in 2015. Back then it was a hardline Islamic group who literally have Death To The US as part of their core mantra attempting to take control of a highly strategic part of the Gulf; I fully accept that interventionism generally creates more problems than it solves, but at the time it wasn't much more than a blockade.
Still, even if I accept the argument that the US shouldn't have become involved at all, the question though was what Obama and Biden could or should have done to stop the conflict. Whether the US sent ships to support a naval blockade or not wouldn't have materially impacted whether the crisis happened.

Global version of the trolley problem. Do you intervene to try and minimize the damage, and risk making it worse, or do you do nothing and let a bloody civil war just happen?

In all sincerity and respect to those affected by Lockerie because I wouldn't give a freak about the larger ramifications of seeing the person responsible for a death of my friend or family member sodomized with the business end of a rifle before being executed.
Intervening in Libya to effectuate regime change was very clearly the wrong answer.

I think that direct military intervention is very rarely the correct answer unless it's literally the only one left on the table, which for Western countries is almost never the case in the Middle East. So yes, I agree with you on that.
I also think that indirect assistance with the aim of preventing or ending a humanitarian crisis is a much more nuanced conversation. It frequently results in knock on consequences, some foreseeable and some less so, and it's rarely done without other far less worthy agendas also being in play, but again - doing nothing when in possession of the power to do something is still an active decision, and one that often has ramifications.
I don't believe that anything of political significance will ever happen in the Middle East, at least in my lifetime, for which Western leaders won't be apportioned some degree of blame or responsibility. Partly that's because they inherited a long history of it, partly it's because they've earned it, and partly it's because it's a particularly easy tool with which to beat them.

The US helped make a humanitarian crisis worse and the outcome was entirely foreseeable. There's no "to be fair" necessary here.

Well, I can't claim to know enough about the details to argue the point there.
Once more, I was replying to dcm's suggestion that Biden could have somehow prevented the Yemeni conflict during his previous stint in administration. I'm not sure that either of you have answered that. The conflict wasn't of US making unless you want to wind back multiple steps into the US impact upon the global recession of 2008, which played a role in facilitating the Arab Spring, of which the Yemeni conflict is an extension, but I think it's hard to really put too much blame on Biden and Obama for not reining in sketchy Florida realtors and mortgage brokers, and thus causing a humanitarian crisis in the Middle East.

I hope so, as I suspect that the only way that Biden's going to actually get credit for anything might be via the transitive property of Bernie and the Squad.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/05/covid-stimulus-update-democrats-to-change-unemployment-insurance-plan.html
Senate Democrats have agreed to cut the weekly unemployment insurance supplement in their $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill but extend it for a longer period of time.
However, reports indicated Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia was reluctant to back the policy, which threw the chamber into chaos Friday and delayed his party’s efforts to pass the legislation. The first in a long series of votes — a failed effort by independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont to include a $15 per hour minimum wage — was still ongoing after nearly four hours as senators decided how to proceed.
Manchin was reportedly considering supporting a plan from Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, that among other things would cut enhanced federal unemployment benefits off earlier than most Democrats want.

Manchin is going to be to the Dems what McCain was to Trump.

At least McCain was a thorn in Trump's side over something consequential. What's the advantage to anyone to shorten the cutoff of unemployment benefits? Does it make any meaningful cut to the overall price of the bill? I doubt Republicans even care about that little of a cut.

I imagine unemployment is simply just a hot button issue,and is incorporated for no other reason than political points with fiscally conservative moderates

I mean, if Manchin gets it shortened by a month or so, what's he gonna fist-pump about? "freak YEAH!! We saved 37 cents!!"

I don't think it's about the money at all.
He's reportedly the most moderate Democrat in the senate, in a highly Republican state.
Bernie Bros can cry about not getting their free money, but if this guy wasn't as moderate you might have a far right Republican in his seat instead

Sen. Mark Kelly and Joe Biden both campaigned on $15 min wage and won in the same state as Sinema.
$15/hr min wage referendum passed in FL, the same state with republican senators and governor.
It's not a matter of electoral survival.
There is exactly 1 demographic that has material interest in opposing it - people who make money by underpaying workers. Anyone not in that group who opposes raising the wage is a useful idiot.

It doesn't even make economic sense to someone who's an actual "fiscal conservative", if such a thing exists, to oppose a higher minimum wage. It's a basic principle of capitalism to be in favour of money having an increased velocity, which is an inevitable consequence of an increased minimum wage.

Why? Do you just want a relentless procession of hit pieces telling you why every single thing that every single politician ever does is bad?
WaPo is a centrist paper, it's going to applaud centrist policy enacted by a centrist President and party. I'm sure Fox or Breitbart could give you a different and far more negative spin on the same story if you wanted. TBH I'm fairly sure Badger can as well.

It's not unreasonable to point out Biden gets little scrutiny from major media outlets compared to Trump (who was receliving an appropriate amount).
Right wing coverage is useless because they think Biden is giving money to MS-13 gender studies or whatever the scare of the week is.

I'm wrong but the NYT isn't progressive 🙄
I understand that now a days Twitter tiktok and other neo progressive outlets for news have changed the dynamic of news media (and yes Facebook and whatever old conservatives, use, telegrams?)
But to pretend that NYT somehow still doesn't have its lips puckered on Obamas rooster is a pretty high degree of delusion

So let me be clear here - it's your view that the Times is a progressive outlet because it loves Obama? Badger, I'm guessing you want this one given your love of defending Obama's progressive credentials.

Obama wasn't progressive either. He was just a fresh face for status quo (and the face deeply upset almost half the country).

I'm not sure why you think that these two things are incompatible. You're not really going to try and make an argument that the current incarnation of the Democrats is left wing, are you? I'll grant you that it's a broad enough church to just about contain some more progressive types, although much like the Republican party and libertarians it's probably more a marriage of convenience than any kind of significant ideological agreement, but you don't really think that WaPo is speaking for the Sanders/AOC/Omar wing, do you?

Apart from the fact that he's chair of one of the most important and powerful Senate committees and is in a position to have a huge influence on the ruling party's policy positions, I'm not sure where you're going with this argument but I'm not really fussed on having it.

You basically stated that the papers weren't progressive mouthpieces because they don't speak for Sanders. My point was Sanders is a near death independent, that failed to get the democratic nomination in back to back years.
Sure he's influential, but I don't think it's fair to let him define anything at this point

WaPo speaks for that wing of the party way more than they do any sort of mainstream or modern conservative viewpoint, which is combined with just unbelievable, Hannity-level schilling for mainstream Democrats. And it's not exactly something they hide from, balance after all is an illusion if one side is just so no good and evil that they don't deserve coverage or to be platformed.
It's not that I don't want to address the rest of your comment, it's that there's so many rabbit holes in which I'll either be exclusively told I'm wrong and a racist so why go there (the democratic party mainstream rushing towards the shitty idPOL populist streak that runs through the worst of the left, despite people like their party leader and the current President of the United States demonstratively having no freaking idea what critical race theory is, or its insidiousness), or in which we'll both get yelled at re: the line of demarcation between liberals and leftists. Suffice to say though, I think the categorization of Obama being a centrist with a pretty face is way off the mark unless you're looking to fundamentally shift the Overton window in this country, or you think people like Jamaal "standardized testing is racist" Bowman could actually win an election outside of an urban enclave.

I basically think DCM is right about Manchin - any anger at him should be directed toward the abject failures of the DNC/DSSC for being terrible. Without Manchin's bizarre unicorny political career we're probably looking at a relief bill with no child tax credit or school aid. With DNC competence we're looking at a genuinely ambitious relief bill with a higher minimum wage.
Also I find the various arguments to cancel critical race theory (not just here, there is a local dude who goes to every single school board meeting and goes on rants about critical race theory during every single public comment period, even ones to approve minutes) to be really funny/absurd

You can read that into it if you like, I'm merely observing - as Cato pointed out - that there's an irony in you complaining about the existence of a certain story, when you're the only one perpetuating it within our tiny enclave.
In the wider context, I don't care if The Hill is running it. If any kind of significant proportion of their output were focused on the White House pets then I would agree that it would be dumb, but in context I don't think it's weird or wrong that a story pertaining to the normal humanity of a President would get some traction given it's the first time a normal human has held the office in 4 years. No one actually gives a excrement about the White House pets, but that's not the story.

It might well be a specific strategy, coming off 4 years of a gobshite who did nothing but talk it might be viewed as better to have one who doesn't exist purely to fill endless media cycles with 140 character soundbites.

It wasn't about apothecaries and hypotenuse
My point was its perplexing that he doesn't just freaking do something that historically every single president before him as done by now, to at least mitigate the biggest rumor about him.
Honestly all of these 70 + year old politicians probably have freaking alzheimers and dementia. I just think it's insane we have an arbitrary age minimum but no maximum. But rather than debate the merits of old people, it's just an odd strategy here

What will it accomplish? If he came out and had a presser right now, people will find something about his speech to "prove" what they already believe. He could make a speech better than the Gettysburg Address and answer questions perfectly without stuttering or giving any incompleteness to his answer and he will get bashed by the people that are pushing the issue on his lack of a speech. Who is really going to change their opinion of him if he spoke right now? I don't give a excrement if he ever speaks. The proof is in the pudding. Do good work. Results.

Champ and Major's recent behavior could stem from a change in environment, which can be unsettling for dogs. They added, "it can take any dog some time to adjust to a new home or new surroundings."

That's some bullshit from the Post dramatizing the statement.
Post:
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warned Thursday that American forces are ready to “fight tonight,” in response to North Korea slamming drills resuming between the US and South Korea.
Actual comment:
https://www.state.gov/secretary-antony-j-blinken-secretary-of-defense-lloyd-austin-republic-of-korea-foreign-minister-chung-eui-yong-and-republic-of-korea-defense-minister-suh-wook-at-a-joint-press-availability/
The United States remains fully committed to the defense of the Republic of Korea, using the full range of U.S. capabilities, including our extended deterrent. As the United States and the Republic of Korea continue to maintain a robust combined defense posture, we also remain committed to the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. There is no daylight between us on this point.
And today, we discussed the way forward on a host of critical strategic and operational issues. And at the top of my agenda was ensuring a shared understanding of the importance of maintaining military readiness. Our force remains ready to fight tonight and we continue to make progress toward the eventual transition of wartime operational control to an ROK-commanded future combined forces command.
The Post makes it sound like the US is looking to start a fight at Applebees with North Korea. The actual statement is stressing the importance of being ready at all times in case something happens.

But Bo, why the "we're ready" statement in the first place? Vigilance is and has always been been the order of the day - it's assumed.
The Post's saber-rattling hyperbole aside, Dear Leader's sister is a bit of a cunty wordsmith in her own right...
“We take this opportunity to warn the new US administration trying hard to give off powder smell in our land,” Kim Yo Jong said in a statement to state news agency KCNA. “If it wants to sleep in peace for coming four years, it had better refrain from causing a stink at its first step.”

"cuts child poverty in half" is my least favorite talking point from dems right now.
At best it's misleading, at worst it seems like a cynical deployment of a platitude for people to uncritically parrot (as seen in the above tweet).
One-time or two-time payments don't do anything to existing poverty. If they were doing permanent recurring payments then maybe they have a claim, but a stimulus check now and some child tax credits later does not "cut child poverty in half".

Do they mean they will reduce the amount by which children are in poverty by half, or the number of children living in poverty by half? It seems to me that either is a statement of intent to fail.

This might be my ignorance, but is that 30,000 megawatts per year? Month? Hour? Minute?
Edit: actually I think I did the math right. I think that using those numbers, 30,000 megawatts means enough offshore wind energy to power 8.2M homes permanently. There are 139 million homes in the US currently, so the aim is to be able to power about 6% of homes with wind power.

I would guess that areas with poorer infrastructure and older pipes are likely to also be high crime areas. I don't think lead causes it, I think lead is also present coincidentally. Just guessing. Kind of like Puck at the tailgate. He doesn't make it better, he just happens to be there.

I'll let you draw the line from there to racial disparities. It shouldn't be all that difficult.
I know it would be impossible to develop a even relatively informed opinion on the subject in a few minutes, or even a few hours.
But I will say that things like this can be extraordinarily difficult to prove causation.
A perfect example is the frequently cited data that suggests that eating meat makes you more likely to die young.
I mean the correlation is rock solid with the data. However people who eat meat are also more likely to smoke, drink, be overweight, not get enough fiber etc.
It's absolutely plausible that the hypothesis is accurate. But at the end of the day the racial factors of it are completely irrelevant.
If you're worried about lead or any other other type of toxic chemicals improve the freaking problem. Figure out the root cause, and solve or improve it. Don't turn it into some jerkoffy debate about race, which literally does nothing to improve the issue. Because the takeaway won't be that lead is the problem, it'll be that racism is

I agree with you, as I said in my earlier post, that it's obviously a much more complicated issue than I have the expertise to hold a sensible opinion on. But if we accept that the ingestion of lead does cause developmental problems, and if we also accept that poorer communities are or were likely to have higher concentrations of lead in their local air (from older vehicles that are less frequently and reliably maintained, and proximity to high lead areas such as freeways), and if we also accept that black communities are more likely to be poorer communities, then we can I think draw a pretty straight line between lead related issues and race and the perpetuation of poverty and therefore the increased need to turn to crime.
And if we can do that, it's not a huge leap of faith to think that if lead ingestion caused or contributed to these issues, then it's entirely feasible that other forms of pollution may have similarly adverse effects, and therefore that any efforts to improve air quality will disproportionately benefit poor racial communities.

Unless people seemingly think the underlying problem of pollution is racism. The underlying problem of policing is racism. The problem of education is racism. The problem of Healthcare is racism.
The underlying problem of all of those things is explicitly racist housing (and also hiring) policies throughout the majority of the 20th century that systematically denied the accumulation of generational wealth from black families while also funneling black people into areas with worse infrastructure, access to education, access to healthcare, access to jobs, and pollution. These factors all led to an increase in violent crime in those same neighborhoods, which in turn has justified more violent, fear driven policing tactic which effects are still seen today.
These effects can also be seen today as black people still live disproportionately in those same neighborhoods which still suffer from things like worse pollution - which is why it's appropriate to frame the cleaning up of pollution as anti-racist, even if it seems totally separated from race. Of course, strong arguments can still be made to clean up air quality without ever invoking race, but it's not inherently bad to connect those ideas.

For the sake of simplicity, let's just say everything you said is 100% completely true.
Do you think attempting to fix the root causes of the individual issues would have better outcomes than somehow trying to undo the past 200 somewhat years?
Not to mention millions of new people are coming to the United States every year. I somehow doubt they're enjoying the life of luxury.
I in no way am a believer in Bernie Sanders and his political philosophy.
But at least his ideas could feasibly lift up the people he wants to help. I could absolutely guarantee that the economic factors are far more of a predictor than race
(of course then you get into a debate about race leading to economic inequalities and this debate becomes way too long and obnoxious, and it's freaking draft day so freak political bullshit)
-
All of our greatest domestic deficiencies (pollution, healthcare, criminal justice, housing, education) happen to hit the black population the hardest. Addressing those things is addressing the root cause. Framing it as a race thing is just that, a framing. It doesn't mean they aren't tackling the "real" problem.
I couldn't care less what audience they're playing to with framing if the solutions make sense (this remains to be seen from this admin).
People like Hillary acted in extremely bad faith on stuff like this, e.g. "breaking up the big banks doesn't solve racism" leading her faction of supporters to think things like M4A or free public college would not impact racist outcomes. You seem to have an equally bad yet opposite take.

If Biden's proposal was "we're going to make sure black neighborhoods and white neighborhoods have to endure shitty environmental conditions equally" you'd maybe have a point.
If his proposal is "black neighborhoods are disproprotionately suffering from a polluted environment and we want to reduce pollution in these areas" you have to do insane mental gymnastics to pretend that isn't reasonable.

There's a difference between making policies black neighborhoods (with neighborhoods to me, meaning socioeconomic rather than skin color). Than the excrement that's constantly getting put out that's purely about race (ie the farm grants, the proposals aimed at HBCUs, racial mandates etc)
Obviously Biden is doing everything he can to make sure his constituents responsible for his title are happy. But the lack of emphasis on socioeconomics and the unusually heavy emphasis on skin color doesn't seem like his goal is to solve problems.
It sounds like a man trying to make sure his core supporters are going to come out to vote in the next two elections

I don't really object to this.
My position, broadly put, is that you can't do anything to legislate away bigotry, but you can take away the tools that allow it to blow up into systemic racism, and you do this with universal programs that guarantee things like healthcare and education to everyone. Make something inalienable and it can't be unjustly withheld from people.
But of course you don't agree with that, so your position is as useless as you imagine Biden's to be.

That speech was every bit the stuff I expected of a freaking absolute doddering, decrepit incompetent who has been emboldened by the fact that he can say whatever he want and the defenders and vanguards of freedom via blue-check twitter over the last four years, will not only NOT meet it with the same vitriol and vigor they did the previous occupant, not only NOT call it out at all, but will actually instead descend into racist tropes to discredit the speaker for the opposition.
Democracy dies in darkness dough!

I agree with this sentiment, the poor air quality, the lack of healthcare options, the predatory nature of housing and banking on the poor isn't solely a race issue. However, if this administration implements changes that address these issues under the guise of race, it will help the poor as a whole. I grew up poor white kid in a black neighborhood. I guarantee you if there were options to help my 'black neighborhood' I sure the freak would have benefited and appreciated it.

Yes, it turns out you can dress it up in any clothes you like as long as the lasting change is an improvement to society as a whole.
excrement reminds me of Bo's song:
https://youtu.be/WLMgbV3uaz8
You can get mad about race issues but the fact is unless you're a black person living in this country you don't know what they're going through. I remember as a teenage walking into a corner store and the clerk following me around like I'm a criminal. I remember how that made me feel like a piece of excrement, I'm not a thief and had no intent of stealing excrement. As I got older, that stopped. That's not the case for most black men in this country. That clerk still follows them around into their 30s.

As usual, you're completely misinformed as to the topic at hand, but that's never stopped you before.
Israel has a right to defend themselves from non-stop rocket attacks on their civilians. Palestine has been offered a free state no less than four different times.
As much as I'm an isolationist and think we need to desperately wean them and everyone off our dole so to speak, the idea that there's a moral equivalence or any sort of choice between the biggest pro-Western democracy vs. a fundamentalist Islamic regime is brought to you by the same people who think western civ is trash.
My goodness, the orange colored glasses have caused permanent damage to you.
LOL ORANGE COLORED GLASSES!
Refute one point keeping in mind that while I haven't laid the issues in the Middle East totally at the feet of Biden, thats our money paying for those rockets being set off by Hamas.
I'll accept "well I hated Trump so I voted Biden out of default" but ffs for anyone actually trying to defend this trash on any other basis has some serious head-in-sand syndrome.

Palestinians have the right to not be evicted from their homes on behalf of "settlers" and their government overlords.

Said settlers can make the legal argument that they owned the land before The Kingdom of Jordan, with the backing of the UN took possession and displaced them.
Re: your hypothetical, I don't have to imagine it, Gavin Newsome is literally using a federally funded bailout paid for by you and I to offer his constituents a bri...I mean tax rebate before his recall. Certainly nowhere near the same in terms of scope and severity, but I can't help but feel like anywhere else in the world this current situation between Palestinian Arabs and their Israeli counterparts would be a simple land dispute. Because of the players involved, Hamas has exploited the situation to ensure that all hell breaks loose, and the Israeli government deserves a tremendous amount of blame when you consider the continued rise of Hamas to the point that they'd unquestionably win any free or fair election to take the mantle of Palestinian leadership is directly tied to Bibi's continued attempts to destabilize the Abbas regime (not that he needs much help destabilizing a complete and total incompetent).
What I can't understand for the life of me is why Hamas, unquestionably a theocratic, backwards, fundamentalist organization is being aided and abetted by certain American political figures. Rashida Tlaib is literally out here co-opting a chant in which the logical end result is the destruction of Israel, Ilhan Omar is accusing the Israeli's of terrorism while being deliberately silent as to Hamas's tactics of both attacking civilian targets and using civilian barricades.

Cry harder. Hamas is a death cult motivated by belief in holy war and a deep hatred of Jews, not just in Israel, but everywhere. Its charter reads like white supremacist fan fiction. The Jews are blamed for the French Revolution, World War I and World War II (which they claim 'profited' the Jews immensely, never explaining how the execution of 6 million people plays into this), and are also accused of using organizations like the Free Masons and the Rotary Club to further nefarious ends. What ends exactly? They don't say. They also point to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion as real - the 'real plan' the Jews are supposedly using to further their domination of the Earth.
That's who you're defending, but tell me more about "being you and the way you are" you stupid FvCk.

The reason I invoked civic religion is because the reaction reminds me of when people get mad over calling Christmas break "winter break." As if someone saying "enjoy the time off" must be told "excuse me but we're celebrating the birth of our lord and savior Jesus Christ." An innocuous statement completely blown out of proportion.
If she'd said "have a HAPPY Memorial Day" there might be an argument that's a faux pas.

As if someone saying "enjoy the time off" must be told "excuse me but we're celebrating the birth of our lord and savior Jesus Christ." An innocuous statement completely blown out of proportion.
If she'd said "have a HAPPY Memorial Day" there might be an argument that's a faux pas.
I mean 93% of Americans celebrate Christmas.
Pretty sure it doesn't have much to do with Jesus these days

Which is why it's silly when people get bent out of shape about the secularization of Christmas (or at others for not perpetually virtue signaling hard enough for the troops).

The argument against RTR is rooted in intellectual property which is one of the exclusionary property rights capitalism needs to function.
Now of course any reasonable person would support RTR, but in just the last handful of posts we've demonstrated the 3 main takes - that capitalism is bad, that capitalism has bad parts that can be regulated away, or that the bad parts of capitalism are something else entirely ("crony" capitalism, corporatism, a side effect of government intervention, etc.).
-
The argument against RTR is rooted in intellectual property which is one of the exclusionary property rights capitalism needs to function.
Eh, I think it's a lot more nuanced than that. RTR is less about exposing IP and more about enforcing reasonably priced licensing access so that competitive markets around repairs and upgrades can be allowed to exist. Very few people want to actually repair their own cellphone, they just want more options than paying the manufacturer and their monopolistic prices to do it, especially given the manufacturers have a vested interest in not repairing.

Which is why we have antitrust legislation. If you need me to get back on my hobby horse about how the US used to be the best in the world at writing and using it, and now isn't, I can. But this is definitely a step back in that direction, which is good.
No system is perfect, but most of them (including capitalism) are logical and predictable, and if they're logical and predictable then they can be anticipated and legislated to ensure that their behaviours are modified. It requires political will to do that though. This demonstrates a bit of that, but I won't be happy until they turn their attention to FAANG.

The executive order alone, however, does not mean these recommendations will come into force immediately.
The government agencies responsible will need to implement the changes, while some elements could be subject to court challenges.
Nothing will change. I agree, it's encouraging, but nothing beyond minimal changes will happen.

-
So everyone who got a child tax credit doesn't pay taxes?
At this point it isn't paid for by tax increases, it isn't paid for at all.
The American Rescue Plan temporarily expands the CTC, extending it in full to low- and middle-income families and paying out the credit periodically instead of as a single lump sum. Specifically, the bill:
Makes the credit fully refundable for 2021, so that families receive the full amount even if they do not have federal income tax liability—as most low-income families with children do not
Increases the amount of the credit from $2,000 to $3,600 for children ages 5 and under
Increases the amount of the credit from $2,000 to $3,000 for children ages 6 to 16 and extends the $3,000 credit to 17-year-olds
Limits the expansion for higher-income families by phasing out the additional $1,000 (and $1,600 for young children) for incomes higher than $112,500 for heads of households, such as single parents, and household incomes above $150,000 for married couples with children. The law does not change the phaseout of the preexisting $2,000-per-child CTC, which begins above $200,000 of income for single adults and $400,000 for married couples

HOW BIG ARE THE CREDITS?
The credit is $3,600 annually for children under age 6 and $3,000 for children ages 6 to 17. But six months of payments will be advanced on a monthly basis through the end of the year. This means eligible families will receive $300 monthly for each child under 6 and $250 per child older than that.
ADVERTISEMENT
This is a change from last year, when the credit totaled $2,000 per child. Families who did not owe the government income taxes were also unable to claim the credit, a restriction that Biden and Congress lifted

I agree post-Bill Tom's not a problem per se, I just thought the Trump-twinged "sleepy" note was a little off-key so to speak. Biden himself aside, you're a guest of The Office so imho when in doubt, just don't; save the cheeky irreverence for another time.

I don't think so, unlike the thin skinned spastic who was there previously Biden is plenty able to take a joke at his own expense. Biden also had his own quite good crack, mentioning that Brady and Arians were the oldest QB and HC to win a Super Bowl but he wasn't going to make jokes about it. This seems like the perfect time and place for cheeky irreverence, TBH.
It's nice that some semblance of normal custom appears to have returned to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and that there's a grown up in residence.

Mr. Gorbachev, take down your signature~!
Playfully busting chops is one thing; using a Trump-originated ('sleepy') swipe however playful could've been avoided altogether, again imho.

From the very first paragraph of the article:
"It was a scene straight out of a Donald Trump nightmare, and quite possibly the worst day of Donald Trump’s life."
Karen, pleeeeze.... lemme guess: the rest of the 'article' wasn't a hyperbolic, sniping screed looking to emotionally extract their pound of flesh. Me, I'm so utterly sick of Donald J. Trump--enough already--as well as uppity sanctimonious prigs that continue the "but Trump!" tourettes bedwetting. Enough...move on...
He should have pissed on the rug and blamed the dog.
Nice touch. Me, I'd have gastronomically prepped the rectal boilers and (silently) broken wind like there was no tomorrow (while blaming it on the dog) and cleared out the place.

Well, for a start the very article you linked suggests that no one was taking offense and it was clearly a moment of levity, albeit a slightly weird one.
There didn’t seem to be any hard feelings – footage showed the audience laughing at Biden’s quip, and even Moore seems to be having a little giggle.
Also, how is it false to call Trump thin skinned? Feel free to not answer that one....

I know people like to make fun of Biden for being senile and what not. But in that second video, holy excrement does he have some serious looks of dementia in his face/eyes
Maybe he got some botox or something to attempt to look younger, or he's just aged horrifically the last year

I don't know why all roads have to lead back to him as opposed to me disagreeing with the idea that Joe Biden has thick skin. He most certainly does not.
Donald Trump has unbelievably thin skin. There. Now we can be friends again. But if anyones engaging in whataboutism...
And leave it of course to theguardian to try and run cover, but the young lady who asked the question said the following to VOX of all people
“Joe Biden has been performing incredibly poorly in this race,” Moore told the Washington Post. “His inability to answer a simple question from a nobody college student like me only exacerbates that reality.”
If it was a joke, she certainly didn't get it.

Correction: A previous version of this article incorrectly said a crowd broke into a “Let’s go Brandon” chant during a Donald Trump Jr. speech in Georgia. The crowd broke into a “F--- Joe Biden!” chant at that speech in September. The error, which was inserted by an editor, has been corrected.

But this was a clear cut case of the system flat out being freaking stupid by enabling a criminal to consistently get away with crimes and thus murder this girl even though he belongs in a prison in freaking Mexico.
100% it was hijacked by some political people, but hell Covid-19, George Floyd, literally everything major that happens is.
Yet I know you don't have this same attitude whenever there's a mass shooting. It's not "oh well every murder could have been prevented if something went differently". It's usually something something guns are bad mmmkay

Cultist Karen/bootlickers out trying to cancel a Southwest Pilot and get them fired for ending a flight by saying "Lets Go Brandon."
FFS, was it the most appropriate thing to do? Of course not, but to want the guy fired?!

Like the squeals of outrage from right wing snowflakes wouldn't have been every bit as loud if he'd done the same thing a couple of years ago but with a Trump meme. And you'd have been entirely supportive of them, or at least quite happy to see them succeed.
If he gets fired, it's not because of his political views. It's because someone who is so mindblowingly stupid as to churn out unauthorized political rhetoric via a corporate medium shouldn't be allowed to fly a cargo plane full of rubber dog excrement out of Hong Kong (I've always wanted to say that), never mind a plane full of passengers. Southwest doesn't give a excrement about his views or anyone else's, they give a excrement about revenues and shareholder value and this kind of idiocy impacts both.

This is total and complete bullshit JE.
For four years the "squeals of outrage" were minimal compared to the constant barrage of "principled resistance" or as I called it REEEEEEEEEsistance in terms of people saying "freak DRUMF" each and every chance they got with nary a consequence.
I know one thing, had the shoe been on the other foot I wouldn't have wanted someone to lose their livelihood over it, but that's just me I guess. Nothing a stern talking to couldn't accomplish.

Mmmm. I'm fairly sure that the size of the violin you'd be playing in the reverse situation would be on the very small end of the scale.
There are pilots sitting around waiting for the phone to ring right now. It takes a special level of stupid to think that this wasn't going to have any kind of repercussions. It's no different to me jumping on the company Twitter account and posting political memes, even if my bosses agree with me they're not going to let it pass when my actions reflect on the company and impact its revenue generation.
Also, the level of "REEEEEEEEsistance" from the right to a mediocre centrist trying to achieve not very much and failing to do most of that is every bit as extreme as it was to Trump, and with far less sensible justification.

Biden isn't governing or spewing rhetoric that's that of a mediocre centrist. The idea that he's governing from the middle is brought to you by the same people that tried arguing that Merrick Garland was a centrist.
Let me understand this, its your contention that "Lets Go Brandon" is every bit as extreme as what we saw from 2016-2020? LOL.
Again, as I said in the OP on the subject, I'm not saying what the pilot said wasn't inappropriate under the circumstances, but to classify it as a hanging offense is incredibly harsh, and not commiserate to the offense.

He's obviously an idiot for doing this, unless he has media aspirations and this is part of his masterplan.
Definitely shouldn't be fired over it, definitely should be suspended/punished.
Honestly though I could give a freak what happens to some random dude. I think the most important thing is whether the company ultimately makes the decision or if it's the outside mob dictating what southwest does with its employee.
I'm not a fan of angry mobs dictating demands

You and I both know, this is exactly what's happening. The worst of blue check twitter has congregated for their scalp. DefiantL's (a fantastic twitter account which is indeed a bit of an oxymoron) is putting together a nice compilation of people that have been vociferous in their freak TRUMP rhetoric that want the pilot fired.
In before "well they did that on twitter and not at work" as if a certain former NFL player who recently made an idiotic comparison between the combine and slavery didn't demonstrate on company time and dime.

It's funny that you love to blame "blue check Twitter" for excrement when it's proven beyond all doubt that Twitter leans heavily to the right.
For the record, I don't give a freak whether this guy gets fired, told off, or completely ignored. In principle continuing to employ pilots so dumb that they think the PA of a commercial aircraft is an appropriate place for political memes makes me less likely to fly with that airline, in reality I'm going to book a flight with them without a second thought if they're $20 cheaper than the other guys.

Is that not how things work these days?
Plus from a business standpoint it makes sense.
If you're a multi billion dollar corporate monster do you really give a freak about a single employee vs your entity's image?
People get thrown under the bus all of the time. Though the guy obviously has to take some personal accountability for his actions

Select biases sure. But to say Twitter is proven beyond all doubt that it leaves heavily to the right is kind of ridiculous, especially without defining what you mean by that.
I know the excrement about their algorithms have been published, (and I'm not interested in researching such a subject so I'll give you benefit of the doubt). But Twitter is far more than corporate algorithms. Social media is heavily influenced the end user, which tends to be young people, who do not tend to lean heavily to the right.

I understand fine how numbers work. I also understand how numbers taken out of context are irrelevant.
If I, with my 38 followers, spend all day doing nothing except churning out left wing talking points, I will be able to become part of that 10%. But if no one is a) reading them or b) retweeting them, then all I'm doing is shouting into the abyss.
If the software is specifically configured to promote a specific voice or set of voices, which we know it is, then the volume of content produced by those voices relative to their counterparts is secondary, because in the end the only thing that matters is how many eyes each voice reaches.

If the content is effectively 70% one sided by default the software would have to be insanely biased in order to make the other 26% of vociss louder.
Fortunately Twitter has been transparent enough to post its actual data.
In the most extreme example, which happens to be Canada. Twitters algorithm tends to amplify right wing content by something like 160% vs 50% on the left.
Doing some math 26% times 260% comes out to 67.6 vs left wing content which is 70% amplified by 150% leaving you at 105 (these aren't percentages just weighted distribution ratios)
In other words even at the extreme outlier of bias in Canada you still have about 50% more left wing tweets than right wing tweets.
In every other country in the world left wing tweets still outweigh right ring tweets by over 2:1 and in most countries it ends up being close to 3:1, which is close to its inherent user distribution.
So to sum, to call Twitter unquestionably conservative is completely cracked out

Amplification is more important than volume when it comes to platforming. JE already pointed that out.
-
Amplification is more important than volume when it comes to platforming. JE already pointed that out.
Amplification is multiplication of volume.
Therefore amplification is just as important as volume, because that's how math works.
And when your volume is roughly 3:1 baseline, you'd need a grossly aggregious amplification formula to make the 1 bigger than the 3, which never happens.
I Will 100% take Twitter at their word that their amplification formula is broken and biased, I'm not arguing that. I'm suggesting that even after accounting for it, it's still ridiculously and grossly liberal.
Per their published data Canada is the only country where the amplification bias appears extreme. In other countries its statistically relevant, but not even putting a dent (ie in the US the bias is extremely minor, and let's be honest the US is probably more important to Twitter when it comes to politics then the rest of the entire world combined)

The man cave thing is overblown (to a degree) but on the flip side I feel like 9/10 times a room is "managed" by a woman practicalness completely goes out the window in the sake of prettiness.

Joe's staring at 80 candles the next time Dr. Jill tells him to blow. Prez Octoboy.
Myself, I'm staring at 70 candles (dob '52) my next time round, i.e. septuagenariandelavan if you will (and why half the current pop culture jokes here escape me...).
It's all good. No need wasting time on the "he's lost his marbles!..he's old but yet 'tilt' material!" back-and-forths (as entertaining as the above exchange was--and you all rule btw). Again imho, worse comes to worse, be it 'the swamp' or 'the man behind the curtain' or 'the powers that be' there will always be some Alexander Haig "I'm in charge!" type to take the wheel....this country's not going to go to hell in a hand basket altogether should nature come calling for Joe.

Worth mentioning the concerted effort inside the Democrats to consolidate support specifically behind Biden for the nomination instead of/in spite of better candidates. They'd rather march segregation grandpa out there than have their donors pay slightly higher taxes.

It was court ordered.
The program, which forces non-Mexican migrants to stay in Mexico until their immigration court dates in the US, was suspended at the beginning of President Joe Biden's term and formally terminated months later.
But in August, a federal judge in Texas said the Biden administration had violated federal law in how it had gone about unwinding the program and required that it be restored.
Administration officials on Thursday stressed that they were only reimplementing the program, formally called "Migrant Protection Protocols," because of the court order.

Hint: it's not the lack of charging stations

What's the biggest barrier to people buying electric cars?
Hint: it's not the lack of charging stations
OK, that's fair. But I think the (badly expressed) point there is that the people already buying $50K trucks and SUVs, and there are a freaking ton of them, are primarily put off from buying EVs because of the range. Which is true, and if you want to start working towards emissions targets while also driving a very significant US industry, then that's a reasonable position.
Your point, I think, is that an awful lot of other people are worrying about how they put food on the table and how they make rent this month and not how they buy a new truck or SUV, and that's very reasonable. But as you have pointed out many times before a government's focus on one thing doesn't mean that it shouldn't also be able to focus on another at the same time given their access to theoretically unlimited funding, and so the two things don't really relate.
The criticism isn't about EV infrastructure, which is a good thing, but about a lack of action on other issues.

I buy trucks and SUVs and I care about the environment.
More relevantly, EVs are better all round than ICE. They're cheaper to run, much faster, and do more. Bubba rolling coal in his '93 Ram Crew Cab with the blown Cummins isn't interested, but a massive amount of suburban truck and SUV owners will jump at the chance to buy one. Ford's reservation list for the F150 Lightning already accounts for the next 4 years of production, and dealers can't put an EV on the forecourt because it's sold while it's still on the truck. Demand is huge and the US automobile industry is rapidly tooling up production lines to try and meet demand.
So yeah. It's really freaking important even if you don't care about the environment.

Getting a degree, or any form of education, isn't just about getting a job doing excrement for other people. Better educated people are better able to identify opportunities and successfully start and run their own businesses. The idea of keeping people dumb to ensure that you have a ready supply of disposable minimum wage drones so that your groceries or your Amazon order come cheap is pretty reprehensible.

Who said anything about keeping people dumb? I suggested that the benefit of making community college free would be minimal at best if not negligible.
And while your point is valid, I think one could argue that improving grade/highschool would give you far better bang for your buck.
As there's likely a far greater number of people with an inadequate high school education who are also the biggest drains on society.

I don't believe in Modern Monetary Theory like Badger, maybe I'm wrong though. However I will never understand why anyone personally needs billions of dollars and has no desire to give the majority of it to someone that needs it. I can understand that person's reluctance to give it to the government, but only because they have proven to be a model of wastefulnesss. I wish there was a way to make donations to highly efficient charities as attractive as tax avoidance in other ways. Obviously just donating a excrement ton of money to downsize their fortune isn't something rich people want to do because they keep getting richer.

Honestly I don't have objections to an extreme wealth tax, something that would selectively target people with net worth in excess of 50 million (or people whose incomes would lead to net worth of 50+ million)
Its the people who are objectively well off but not freaking rich that get screwed, and this includes a lot of small/medium size business owners.
Something like 50-60% of Americans pay no net taxes. Screw the top 0.1% moderately but not completely (ie I don't support windfall taxes of 80-90%). It's the top 20% that aren't in the 0.1% that get caught in the crosshairs.
To keep excrement simple I would be cool with adding one more bracket to the federal income tax bracket that kicks in at 2 million with a tax rate in the 55% range (the current top tax bracket for single people is 37% and kicks in at 500k ish) (and yes this doesn't include state and local income tax)
When it comes to fixing write offs, options and all that other bullshit I completely support
(in hindsight I'd say 55% federal tax bracket would be extremely extreme, borderline a windfall tax. But if it meant the govt would freak off the other 99.9% of Americans, I'd be okay with it)

No. The federal government can run a deficit with little to no consequences. The federal government should tax people to control inflation and to prevent the anti-democratic effects of having a handful of people who are richer than god. The federal government does not need to tax a dollar to spend a dollar.
The spending:taxing ratio is elastic and anyone who claims the US government cannot afford something is either lying, or ignorant.
-
Haha I was gonna say as I was reading it, this is more radical than Bernie's proposed tax brackets were (IIRC it was 50% for earnings over $10M).
I just looked at his proposal, and his wss way more extreme. Sure his top bracket was lower than 55%.but he wanted to add an extra 6% payrole tax to employers, an extra universal 2.2% tax, and a excrement ton of new tax brackets absolutely derriere raping very successful but not rich Americans.
He also proposed turning capital gains into income tax for households with incomes at 250k
Again I'm cool with giving the top 0.1% a bit of a kick to the nuts. But Bernie wanted to demolish the people who are paying the lions share of local taxes across the country (ie normal wealthy Americans who essentially subsidize schools and Healthcare for their lower income non tax paying neighbors)
If the problem is billionaires don't rape successful normal people

The slave-supporting Democrat Brooks you're referring to actually beat the abolitionist Republican Sumner to within an inch of his life (historically referred to as "the caning of Sumner"); what was proposed above was flipping over the scrip: "the 'canning' of Boebert."

Yes, I am aware. It's a commonly held belief that introducing women to male dominated environments tempers the worst effects of the male ego and brings a touch more decorum, so it's amusing that the women appear to be worse than the men right now when it comes to rhetoric and a lack of manners, and I have no doubt that Boebert and Gathering would happily get all sticky-hitty with their opponents given the opportunity. They'd probably get re-elected like Brooks did as well, so it rather raises the question of how far you've actually managed to come in the last 160 years...

Dan Lipinski:
"In 2004 Lipinski's father ran for re-nomination in the Democratic primary. After easily winning the nomination, the elder Lipinski announced his retirement. As the Democratic committeeman for Chicago's 23rd Ward—which is virtually coextensive with the Chicago portion of the 3rd district—he was able to persuade the state Democratic Party to select his son to replace him on the ballot. The move was somewhat controversial; since the younger Lipinski had not lived regularly in Illinois since 1989 or run for elected office before, but it allowed him to sidestep the Democratic primary—the real contest in this heavily Democratic district. He then bought a home in Western Springs as his residence in the district. As expected, Lipinski defeated his Republican challenger, Ryan Chlada, in the general election. He went on to win re-election seven times."

There are a lot of business districts looking at a multitude of problems due to having large buildings still zoned and structured for office space sitting empty. The obvious critique is that corporate greed is wanting to take a healthier, more balanced work force and forcing them back into the office, but that's not the whole picture.
You can hate the corporate landlords and the companies that are demanding a return to in-office labor (believe me, they have it coming) but having large empty tracts of buildings actively hurts the people who are there to support those areas. Multiple restaurants, coffee shops, convenience stores, barbers, tailors, grocers, and laundry services are all dotted around the area and are receiving little to no income to support themselves. So what these areas are left with is multiple massive buildings using up resources in the form of electricity, water, and waste management with little or no people in them, and support industry resources languishing with little to no patronage. The direct outcome of both of these things are decay and poverty, which is why there is an incentive to return to these offices before they and the local economy in the districts crumble into nothing.
It's easy to say that Biden is giving in to corporate greed by making these statements, but the more complex reality in this specific is that he is just a conservative septuagenarian that cannot fathom a better way to solve a litany or problems than by going back to "when things were better". I don't think Badger is wrong for saying that it is a knee-jerk reaction to a complex problem, but I think he is being too simplistic in his critique, regardless if Biden himself understands the differences or not.
For the record, "more green spaces" and "more parks" is not the right answer. Yes, it would look a lot prettier to have more grass and trees and flowers where some of these structures are (seriously, I would love to see it) but it would actively hurt people where utilizing these spaces for services could actually benefit them. A lot of these areas are perfectly suited to be fit for housing, especially middle income housing which is rapidly disappearing in metropolitan areas, as well as services affordable services which gentrification is wiping out among neighborhoods. It's difficult to repurpose a 36 story sky scraper in NYC but smaller cities could have a lot more success in converting some of these buildings into middle of the paycheck multifamily housing for families struggling to find affordable housing. The balance would be making sure that services - coffee shops, barber shops, grocery stores, restaurants - are priced accordingly, and not just catering to the business class that is the norm for working there.

Indeed a good move, but considering he was the driving force behind the legislation that put them there, it's basically like cleaning your own mess.
Remember though, he was the clear choice as the non-racist candidate, and not the guy who injected more money into HBCU's than anyone before him, started the Urban Opportunity Initiatives and worked with Van Jones to enact comprehensive CJ reform at the federal level.

Lowlife piece of excrement pruneface disaster of a President through his professional liar Peppermint Patty takes "no position on where people protest" in response to a question about pro-choice activists protesting at the homes of Supreme Court justices.
Just yesterday this poopchute was talking about moderation (lolololol) but does anyone else remember when he ran on uniting the country? What a sorry sack of excrement.
I wonder how much longer I'll be able to say this once the Truth Commission is fully up and running.

I don't know what kind of protection Supreme Court justices are offered but you'd have to seriously be concerned about one of these nut jobs attacking them. I mean you have people literally freaking attacking Dave Chapelle for telling jokes. Violent protesting is strongly encouraged these days, it's insane

I just found it interesting that she blames Donald Trump for his comment about paying the legal fees if you knock someone out.
Then she applauded the people in the Chapelle situation for doing a great job. Where 10 people were stomping on a guy and beating the excrement out of him.
Imagine if the freaking police did that to someone, she'd be on there calling for the freaking death penalty on all of them.

I don't think most Americans understand the economy enough.
They'll see they're able to get jobs basically anywhere they want and think it's not that bad. Of course the price of gas will be the one thing that makes people panic and think the economy is in disarray. If DOW hits 20,000 most people won't know what to make of it.
If gas hits 8$ a gallon, then people will think it's the freaking apocalypse.
I think the gas prices is going to really shut the left up on global warming and the green agenda.
But RvW is going to probably give the left a clear edge on all talking points
TLDR I think RvW is going to be much more powerful than the economy. But the cumulative losses of the Biden administration may still outdue it

A loan isn't money spent. A loan is money that is expected to be returned. Otherwise they'd be called student gifts, not student loans. Interest not collected is also money lost. The government decides not to collect but the people didn't decide that directly.
I'm not saying it's right or wrong, I'm just not blind to the fact that there are negatives to it as well.

It was money spent though, spent with the chance it would not be paid back. No loan has a 100% guarantee of repayment. It doesn't cost additional money to not collect.

Just because they're not the same doesn't mean that not paying your debt doesn't have consequences.
No matter how your permutations work.
You're redistributing wealth to people who don't pay their debt, from those who pay taxes.
Sure this is happening all the time considering 50% of Americans don't freaking pay federal taxes to begin with, but this is essentially a bonus on top of it.
In practical terms about 50% of this cost will get bore by the top 1%, with the other 50% by the Americans in the middle/upper middle class.

We all pay for lots of things we don't directly use. I don't have kids but I've paid for schools for the last three decades. I have a good career but I pay for social services that I don't need.

You're not paying for education, the money was already spent remember?
You're paying for debt
Not to mention these loans aren't exclusively for school, so you're paying for debt that was spent on a plethora of excrement.
Regardless its a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of things.

Surprise they didn't use your neighbours to the north, we're at about $7.80 a gallon right now. Although obviously we're currently under communist rule, so that probably doesn't come as a surprise to anyone.
As I keep telling people, high gas prices are a feature at least as much as they're a bug. You're supposed to be driving less, especially if you have or plan to have children, and you should be paying a fuckton of tax for using gasoline in order to offset the damage you're doing to their future. Pretty sure conservatives are all about facing up to the consequences of your own actions, no? Welcome to reality.
Obviously that goes down very well in my hardcore conservative truck loving part of the world, but I'll keep banging the drum.

I love how you think this graph means something, as if gas prices in european countries weren't routinely around 7 bucks a gallon even in good times.
Anything to simp for this absolute abortion/failure, or absolve yourself of voting for it I suppose.
As I keep telling people, high gas prices are a feature at least as much as they're a bug.
Yes, it is becoming clear that by not repealing the federal gas tax, opening up drilling leases on lands that were already earmarked before an executive order shut down drilling or doing ANYTHING to combat this, that the administration wants higher prices so people switch to electric.
Of course, not everyone has the 50k to drop on an electric car, but remember, Democrats are the party of the working class!

You're falling into the usual trap of linear thinking that so many people fail on. "How else do I drive there?" is not the only question that people should be asking themselves.
- Is there a transit option available?
- Could I car pool this journey?
- Do I actually need to make this journey?
These are some of the questions that you, me, and everyone else should be asking. And we should be asking and answering them honestly, because it's surprising how often the answer is something other than "I have to make this journey, and I have to make it now, and I have to make it in my personal vehicle". The reality is that an awful lot of driving is done for convenience, and I'm not shedding tears for people having to spend more for convenience.
None of that has anything to do with Biden. It's a difficult reality that everyone should be facing up to in this day and age, particularly people who expect to still be on the planet in 30 years' time, and particularly people who have or plan to have children who will be here for much longer than that.

Petrol economics isn't exactly a speciality of mine.
But if you have large stores of something (ie oil) and the price sky rockets, shouldn't your profits logically go up?
Supply problems and an increased cost could be a thing, but wouldn't those things lag behind to future quarters?
I logically price changes should have a much more immediate impact than operational costs

Getting the coronavirus should not come with stigma or be perceived as a failure; rather, it should reflect the new normal going forward. Indeed, this is almost certainly not the only time Biden will get the coronavirus. He, like the rest of us, could contract the virus once a year or more.

Except you're the one who introduced the concept of authoritarianism to the conversation. I was talking about fascists because I was responding to the comment about Nazi symbology, and I don't think we're really having a debate about "well were the Nazis really fascists or just authoritarians and are the pinkos overreacting to them", are we?

No, they're just gonna pretend this was an amazing life-changing gift for everyone and milk it through the midterms, while conservatives wail and gnash their teeth about soshulisms.
Of course it does set a precedent proving that the president absolutely has the power to do this and more, which is something. But if it took this shitty administration a year and half of hemming and hawing to sprinkle some crumbs of relief for student debtors it's very unlikely they're going to do much more about it.

To be fair I think there was some delineation there, that Bush himself was a bumbling idiot yet the Bush administration as a whole was the latter.
Which I suppose is a model the current opposition would subscribe to as well, at least not the #PedoHitler crowd.
The thing with Bush is all the liberals with big platforms who, since the rise of Trump, now love to bring up W as a paragon of class and respectability (as they also did with McCain and Romney to varying extents).

Biden released a statement at the time of the crash saying he was 'shocked and saddened' by Walorski's death.
'Jill and I are shocked and saddened by the death of Congresswoman Jackie Walorski of Indiana along with two members of her staff in a car accident today in Indiana,' it read.

What a freaking joke. I wish this freaking potato was in my fantasy leagues.
I looked Mr Whelan up.
According to a deposition Whelan gave in 2013, he was in law enforcement from 1988 to 2000 as a police officer in Chelsea, Michigan, and a sheriff's deputy in Washtenaw County.[7] The Chelsea Police however said he worked in lesser roles and as a part-time officer from 1990 to 1996, while the Washtenaw County sheriff reported no record of his employment.[7] A former colleague said he was a patrol officer from 1998 to 2000 in the Keego Harbor police department.[7]
He was an IT manager for the Kelly Services staffing company from 2001[8] to 2003, and then 2008 to 2010. From 2010 to 2016 Whelan was Kelly Services' senior manager of global security and operations.[8]
He enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve in 1994.[7] He took military leave from Kelly Services to serve with the Marine Corps Reserve from 2003 to 2008, including service in Iraq. He held the rank of staff sergeant with Marine Air Control Group 38 working as an administrative clerk and administrative chief, and he was part of Operation Iraqi Freedom.[8] After a court-martial conviction in January 2008 on multiple counts "related to larceny", he was sentenced to 60 days restriction, reduction to pay grade E-4, and a bad conduct discharge.[9][10] The specific charges against him included attempting to steal more than $10,000 in 2006 in Iraq and using a false Social Security number to create a false account on a government computer system to grade his own examinations.[11]
When arrested in Russia, Whelan was director of global security and investigations for BorgWarner, an international automotive parts manufacturer based in Michigan.[8] His work with Kelly Services and BorgWarner gave Whelan contacts with law enforcement in many countries.[citation needed]
Whelan traveled to Russia several times from 2006 and maintained an intermittent presence on a Russian language social media website, Vkontakte (VK), where he had approximately 70 contacts. He has studied Russian but communicated online using Google Translate.[12][3] Whelan supported US President Donald Trump and, after Trump's 2016 election victory, Whelan posted in Russian Президент Трамп Вперед!! (President Trump Onward!!).[13][a]
He said in a deposition in 2013 that he holds a bachelor's degree in criminal justice and an MBA degree.[14] He took courses at Northern Michigan University from fall 1988 to fall 1990 without earning a degree.[12]
He sounds like a real gem. I can't imagine why the US Government wasn't falling over themselves to get him back.

You did a wikipedia search. But assume that's all true. That means he should be detained indefinitely on trumped up charges by the Russians?
I can't stand Brittany Griners stupidity and ignorance when it comes to her political worldview-that has absolutely nothing to do with the folly of exchanging arms dealers for her release. Wouldn't matter if she was a saint, or the biggest conservative on the planet.
This is a disgrace.

Obviously neither of these people deserved to rot in a freaking Russian prison. But if you look at the way that George Floyd was made out to be a freaking folk hero despite his history, vs this guy (which not stated but suggested thats he's a piece of excrement)
I know the argument will be that Floyd was killed, but I'm pretty sure spending 16 years as an American/Canadian whatever the freak this guy is in a Russian work camp prison is probably worse than death

What the actual freak does George Floyd have to do with anything?
Based on your history it doesn’t matter what Biden did to get her home you’d find something to criticize. No one in this Jets forum was involved in the negotiations so we don’t know what our measure of success is. This other prisoner could have been a non starter. He could have been in play for a release but things fell apart. Or negotiations could be ongoing.
We don’t fuckin know. You count your victories and you continue to fight. Or in your case, you count other people’s Ls and have uninformed arguments online.

I literally didn't say anything about Biden. Honestly I don't talk about Biden much in general, even when I do talk about political things on here. He's more sad, than a lightning rod for anger.
My point was JE had decided to point out that this guy wasn't an outstanding citizen (seemingly as if it's no big loss that this guy's unjustly going to Russian prison for 16 years). But when anyone pointed out George Floyds far more serious character flaws, they were a terrible person.
-
People act like this is a fantasy football trade. A lot deeper than that. Freeing a wrongfully detained US citizen, particularly a high-profile one, is a good thing. Giving up someone as dangerous as Bout for that freedom is tough, which is why people on the left shouldn't be victory lapping too hard, but freeing Griner is a good thing.

I have no idea whether the charges against Whelan are trumped up or not, and I think that Wikipedia and subsequently me quoting his political views is unhelpful as it's irrelevant to the point I was making.
I'm already on record as not having a huge amount of sympathy for Griner because what she did is a crime in literally every single country in the world, you are not allowed to transport restricted substances across international borders regardless of whether they're legal on one side of the border or the other (in this case they were illegal on both). I haven't really looked into the details of the trade because on the list of things I care about it's not very high, but I will agree that someone convicted of selling arms to terrorists and rogue states doesn't seem like the kind of individual we want to be releasing back into the wild no matter how good the other person's mid range jumper is. You're the one who introduced Whelan though, like adding him into the mix would suddenly make it all fine.
From the absolutely minimal investigation I've done, I'd be quite happy to leave them all right where they were. I don't think Trump should have intervened with the rapper in Sweden either, I think that barring absolute miscarriages of justice your home country should have little or no responsibility to try and get your derriere out of prison when you freak up in someone else's country and deliberately break their laws.

I think freeing what we consider a wrongfully detained US citizen is a great thing and it's hard to put a price on that. But giving up Bout is a big price.

Why was she wrongfully detained? She attempted to transport a controlled substance across international borders. I'm fairly sure that the US doesn't give foreign nationals a stern talking to and a "be on your way" when they catch them doing that.

USA classified her as wrongfully detained. They never specified why. Maybe it was to build leverage for bringing her back. Maybe it's because they think Russia either planted something or went out of its way to treat her badly (likely to get a deal back for another prisoner). We don't know.

There was never going to be a prisoner exchange that would have satisfied bringing over Grinner or Whelan for the Russians that also looked equitable to the American public. Russia isn't holding any high-level US prisoners with similar convictions and we're not holding anyone with similar convictions to Grinner or Whelan that they want back.

Then don't do it.
There is no way that the United States government is ever sending a convicted arms dealer/war criminal for a regular citizen. Why does Griner get special treatment? Because she can dribble a basketball?
Theoretically, no one should be in jail for charges related to cannabis. Someone should tell that to the President and Vice President considering their domestic role in ensuring people did/do go to jail for said plant. Why is Griner's case different?
She went to a foreign country, intending to profit off of their money, carrying something that was illegal under their laws. Backward and archaic as I find that entire pooper to be, it's still their laws. Her stupidity had to result in us freeing someone that armed terrorist groups and conspired to kill our soldiers?
I'd be making the same points and having the same issue if this was done under Trump, or any other administration. This is a massive L.

Both sides agree that this is a terrible thing and more proof of how awful this administration is, and all the while a bunch of people who would have ended up on the streets get to stay in their homes.

^My career is in science, so every time I see a survey or a study, I assume it's bullshit and skewed one way or another. I don't have a bias one way or another in Georgia voter law. I don't live there nor do I even know what it is. But when you survey 1200 people out of several million voters, it isn't very scientific. I doubt it was intended to be some thorough evaluation of voter opinion.

I don't live there nor do I even know what it is. But when you survey 1200 people out of several million voters, it isn't very scientific. I doubt it was intended to be some thorough evaluation of voter opinion.
^ I totally get & respect your take. Imho the problem is the survey exposed Biden as a cynical race-baiting hypocrite via a calculated, reckless soundbite......Joe Biden, the suddenly evolved proressive who voted for a vulgar crime bill whose publicly stated purpose was geared towards 'super predators' but whose insidious target in fact was "them" (read: urban Blacks). The guy's a bumbling 24-carat bum. Joe Ersatz

'No del' ...wasn't he the creator of Green Lantern? Anyway that's about the only 'no del' of worth here because for whatever reason it seems you're insisting that election fraud be conflated with voter suppression when I had only addressed Biden's accusatory voter suppression warnings vs. the findings of a post-election survey and not election fraud per se, e.g. someone screwing with the machines/ballots/counting. I'm not trying to be an obtuse pain in the derriere, I'm just asserting that the voter suppression component was being singularly addressed in my post.

On the face of it this creep comes across as Richard Spencer 2.0. The "just playing devil's advocate" argument would be that his comments aren't race-based so much as they were 'heavy democrat-stronghold' based. I'm not buying that but there is some nuance that would be best kicked around 'back and forth and back and forth' over a beer. Again, while he claims his target was 'opposition party stronghold' based I trust his word about as far as I could throw him. Bull Connor would approve of this ghoul's bullshit.

Weaselcock. While safety is a concern national security should be even more so. They could've and should've nipped this in the bud BEFORE it was allowed to conduct intelligence gathering activities for the better part of an entire week over the continental United States (e.g. over the sparsely populated Aleutian Islands) and BEFORE it was allowed to send that gathered intelligence back to Beijing. Think about it: allowing a Chinese spy balloon to hover in United States airspace for days on end. Oh and the Chinese claimed it was a weather balloon? I call weaselcock.

Balloon down
Intelligence already gathered and transmitted to home base - horse out of the barn. If nothing else and this was figuratively-speaking just a weather/test balloon to see how the Biden administration would react (decisively or cautiously) for when they most likely move to take over Taiwan, they sure got their answer. Me, when that day comes they can have Taiwan for all I care. But "look up in the sky!..it's a bird, it's a plane, it's a...a...fuckin Chinese spy balloon!" is a different kettle of fish. Speaking of which....

Can’t believe they’re about to run it back with a guy that can’t stand/walk
SFD, I attended the Air Force Graduation in Colorado Springs today and while Joe B. had his ”down goes Fraziah!…down goes Frazahh!” moment taking a header, in his defense he had just shaken hands with 900 grads - this after giving a pretty solid commencement address.
The “Dismissed!” command where the grads all flung their hats in the air ‘live’ was pretty cool as was the Thunderbirds flying overhead at the conclusion. Big hail storm broke aftrrwards (and after Joe & co. split). Overall impression: Biden’s security detail is not to be believed. Very impressive. Jets should do such a flyover for the Bills home opener.

What a shock those crying about the emoluments clause some years back after just having heard about it have nothing to say about the Presidents shitbag son being giftwrapped a plea deal from a clearly compromised DOJ that couldn't go through because this poopchute is still under investigation.
Remember though, Joe never had anything to do with his sons businesses.

What a shock those crying about the emoluments clause some years back after just having heard about it have nothing to say about the Presidents shitbag son being giftwrapped a plea deal from a clearly compromised DOJ that couldn't go through because this poopchute is still under investigation.
Remember though, Joe never had anything to do with his sons businesses.

Don't worry guys, the same person who offered Hunter Biden a plea deal that wouldn't be available to anyone outside of the .000000000001 percent of the elite political class is handling the investigation. Nothing to see here.

The socialized FBI? But of course; first adjective that came to mind, i.e. lol say wha’? Anyway, weaponized or not Chris Wray lied through his teeth when he claimed their catholic spying project was contained to a single memo.
Moreover, be it “it” a church, a temple, a mosque, or an ”I saw Elvis” Dairy Queen, it’s pretty chilling imho when an FBI’s surveillance program is carried out to such an extent and equally chilling that they had to admit to being a bunch of lying weasels about it.

Anyway, you'd think the leader of the free world would be politically astute if not compassionate enough to offer something to those being affected by terrible tragedy in Hawaii right now, but I guess when his masters haven't told him what to say yet, all he can do is defecate in his pants (again) before offering up a "no comment." JFC. I've seen this senile old bag more forceful when he's defending his sons illegal influence peddling as his DOJ completely tries to sweep that under the rug.

Don't do that. You muddy the waters and invite (however thinly veiled) partisan projection and deflection. This is not about the 'other slob' Trump this is about the current tone-deaf bastard. And Biden in attempting to fraternize himself with the Maui victims had the consummate gall to take it a step further (i.e. past the cat & Vette) by including his 'rescued wife' in his crass vingnette for good measure regarding what was described by F.D. responders at the time as a small kitchen fire.

Yeah this isn't submitting to the whims of their masters. This is when you do a shitty job you shouldn't be making demands that'll speed up bankrupting your shitty company.
If the employees of Toyota or any of the good car companies were making these demands they'd have an argument.

Loads of people choose domestic over import for a variety of reasons - since I moved to these shores 14 years ago every vehicle I've bought (8 in total) bar one was domestic, and the quality has been uniformly excellent. The stats also bear that out:
https://www.jdpower.com/business/press-releases/2023-us-initial-quality-study-iqs
6 of the top 10 brands for Initial Quality are domestic. The fact is that the standard of domestic auto output has never been higher, and by the way - who do you think is building Toyotas, Nissans, Kias and Hyundais?

Interest rates have been way, way higher than this many times in the past. The current rates are not the cause of the financial imbalance of society.
Unless you're talking about the period of historically low rates that we've just lived through, in which case you'd have more of a case.

I'm talking about the ability to afford a house.
Yes interest rates were higher in the past, but prices of home vs median income. Right now you'd have to make somewhere in the ballpark of 125k to responsibly afford a 350k mortgage, and that's assuming you can manage 50k down.
I'm not talking about financial imbalances or equity or any of that nonsense. I'm talking about interest rates making home purchases near impossible for a lot of people

Current high interest rates are not why young people can't afford houses, the disparity between wages and house prices is why young people can't afford houses. This is in large part due to the glut of cheap money over the last decade allowing those already on the property ladder to send prices spiraling upwards using the equity in their existing properties that they bought when that disparity did not exist to finance the purchase of additional properties. In 2022, 22% of all house sales in the US were to investors. In 2021 it was 24%. Investors are not buying 6 bedroom McMansions, they're buying the kind of 2 and 3 bed cookie cutter homes that are the traditional starter home for young first time buyers because that's the kind of property that gives the best ROI when you look at rents relative to purchase price.

Yes the reason is multifactorial, but interest rates is the biggest factor, especially with the insane wage inflation that's happened the last few years.
But buying a house is the biggest financial decision most people ever make in their lives, followed by student loans. A typical mortgage is approaching double what it was a few years ago, and student loans are still student loans.
Wages is probably next in line, followed by ridiculous spending and garbage saving habits (this ain't exclusive to young people, I think 50% of people > age 50 have less than 10k saved for retirement)
I wasn't aware on the percentage of investment homes, but that's clearly got to be a big factor as well
(and yes this is a Biden thread, but I don't think inflation is a solely attributable to Biden or anything like that)

-
No.
Interest rates don't matter when you can't even make a down payment.
These mortgages all offer 3.5% down bullshit. I realize PMI sucks, but it'd still manageable. 10-15k for a down-payment is a helluva lot more manageable than 2.5-3k a month
But yeah as Cato mentions you'll definitely have more issues getting an accepted offer vs all cash or traditional mortgages

A week prior, in a pseudo blog post, cherrypicking data points to support a political argument he's trying to make. Which makes it even more telling that he then expresses surprise at how well the economy is doing, live on Fox.
Conservatives love to talk about government spending as a huge amorphous (w)hole, but never talk about government investment.

That's because conservatives generally believe the government is incompetent and isn't particularly effective at investing.
Sure there's some specific things that everyone can get on board with (roads bridges airports infrastructure) but past that? Everyone reverts to tribal mentality
The right is okay investing into national defense (military, protecting the borders) while the left despite being big on government investment has little interest in funding the police, protecting the borders, the military.
Both sides ignore their own general philosophy when it benefits them and their constituents
(FWIW I almost never hear anybody on either the left or the right use the term government investment)

Don't tell the libertarians.
(FWIW I almost never hear anybody on either the left or the right use the term government investment)
Not that exact phrase but plenty of liberals have made noise about "investing in [insert area of interest]" because they've been trained that spending is a bad word and saying investing makes them sound smart, responsible, and serious.

Maybe, but intelligent people of any political stripes can, or should be able to, recognise the difference between investment and spending. Unless you're the worst kind of libertarian loon we also should be able to agree that governments do both, we mostly just disagree on what things fall into what bucket. Generally everyone agrees that infrastructure is good, the divergence comes when we're talking about investing in people and companies. But spending isn't necessarily bad even if it doesn't have an obviously realisable return, and investment isn't necessarily good even if it does.

Some people think the solution is for the government to spend less
Some people think the solution is to give the IRS an extra 80 billion dollars.
I think people on both sides would agree the optimal solution is to simplify the tax code.
Instead it's both size using the IRS as a weapon to rile up their base, and increasingly often to become a weapon against their political adversaries

So you don't think everyone in the media and politics is capable of manipulating DATA to support their point?
I think it's absolutely possible to present a selective data set that supports the narrative that you want to push, yes.
I also think that the data set presented here is pretty solid, both in breadth and veracity.
I also think that while there are legitimate things for which Biden can be knocked, his handling of the economy is absolutely not one of them and the suggestion that Trump is a better bet on that folder, either personally or in terms of the people he surrounds himself with, is absolutely laughable. Even if you're already incredibly wealthy, the economic conditions under Biden's stewardship have absolutely been conducive to generating more because inward investment programs, greater energy independence and sensible trade policies are really good for American business and American workers.

Tax codes are legitimately ridiculous in pretty much every developed economy. I don't think too many people would argue that a 5:1 return on investment to make the very wealthy pay a bit more of their share is anything other than an excellent use of resources.

Getting the top 1% of billionaires to pay a "fair share" isn't the issue (albeit the definition of fair is very different)
It's if we're going to give the IRS 80 billion, why not just invest those resources into fixing the tax loopholes?
Instead it's just a weapon to batter your enemies and stroke your political allies. So yeah I'm not particularly a fan of the mentality of let's not fix the problem, let's incentive corruption and give politicians more reason to keep things the way they are.

But this is taxes that are owed, and not being paid. This isn't either/or. You can go after people who are avoiding their responsibilities AND simplify the tax code. You can't say "this thing is good but it doesn't count because you didn't do another thing that would also be good", especially when previous administrations have failed to do either of them.

Actually not what it said at all, it said he would be a sympathetic defendant and no one would want to punish a man who by the time it came to trial would be in his late 80s. The key message here is that a Republican counsel decided not to pursue the case, presumably because there's largely no case.

If these particular people cared to show up for the primary, they will show up for the general election. The question is whether they will write in Santa Claus or some 3rd party candidate as a protest vote or hold their nose and vote Biden. The people that won't show up probably didn't vote in the primary either. You are right that the no shows may be a huge factor. That goes for Trump and Biden.

Yeah, really only applies to battleground states. Most of those primary voters in Michigan will also vote in the general when they know staying home is voting for Trump. They might not like Biden, but they don't hate him bad enough to help Trump.

That's incorrect. Biden is not a terrible candidate, and plenty of people will vote for Biden because they can see - as the Bloomberg article clearly demonstrates - that in many ways he's doing an excellent job of the things that actually matter.

Just because a bunch of Biden supporters write an opinion article cherry picking data to suggest that he's good at things, doesn't actually make Biden good at those things.
Like they list immigration as a win for Biden? This is the most ridiculously stupid freaking thing possible. You can make legitimate arguments for certain things, immigration absolutely not one. And just because they claim BUT ASYLUM, one of Bidens core immigration failures was changes to asylum which makes it easier for illegals to stay here.

Him being old and demented, and among the all time worst presidents when it comes to the border are among two of top reasons conservatives believe. And polling data would suggest that independents believe this, as well as a fair percentage of the left.
There's a reason that polling data suggests 70% of the country thinks Biden is doing a terrible job with the border/immigration, and it's the biggest margin issue of him vs Trump.
His age/mental status is also pretty obvious as well

That's incorrect. Biden is not a terrible candidate
Lol

Biden is objectively awful for a plethora of reasons
Same for Trump .
I've been registered NPA non party affiliate since I was 18 because even then most Americans recognize the US Political system is WWE
They cut promos and pretend to feud and pick a red or blue tie
Then basically split the money in the back room
About 80% fall for the garbage and it's now college sports. Pick a color and scream for your team .
The whole system is predicated off of milking tax payers and gaining and not losing power . Not for what you can do with it but just to continue to ride the gravy train into the great collapse .
People are tired of the DNC standing on a moral soap box while they force neolibs down progressives throat .
The backlash will be real and they will lose to Trump if the best they can do is Biden or Newsome .
This system sucks either way you cut it and we're in the final days of modern day Rome before Blade Runner starts
Wake me up when we have term limits and campaign finance reform .

Lol I grew up liberal then realized they don't care about doing any of the things they sell to their constituents
Then you realize Republicans can't even hold up their fiscally responsible end of the bargain as a selling point
Then you realize super PACs and business control everything anyways
I've reached the nihilism part of capitalism and hate both sides equally .
I wouldve voted for Bernie had the DNC not rigged their primary multiple times
Now I'd vote for Trump over Biden by proxy of Trump being the only POTUS in my life who didn't tap dance for the military industrial complex .
But come November I don't think I could vote for either .
excrement 4 years ago I voted for Johnny Silverhand . Fictional Keanu Reeves character from Cyberpunk 2077
But yes Biden is a walking Manchurian candidate in a soiled diaper
Trump is a 4 Chan boomer hyped up on WW2 era amphetamines
I think the best thing I did was realize most of this means nothing . The losing sides rich people are slightly less rich and influential for 4 years
The rest is smoke and mirrors
All jokes aside I think we get Trump as POTUS and dem majority in house and senate
Itll be a glorious lose lose for everyone .

I can't and will not vote for either of these guys. JE mentioned Warren Buffet. Yes he's still better in his 90's then pretty much everyone a third of his age at what he does. That said, 80 year olds should not be President, they should not even be in Congress. We are talking 80 year olds that are freaking useless shitstains, Trump included.
There needs to be more options, more parties. Our system is broken. For instance, we have people in Congress on finance committees that have no idea about finance and banking. They do not represent us, they represent the party line, that's it. It's not getting better, it seems to be getting worse. It's a matter of time before they stall all government and have an eventual shut down.
There is a complete divergence between what most of the country desires and what the legislators legislates.
The old adage: Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself.

Republicans? Lying? That seems unfair, I think it's probably just a problem with her clearly already faulty software.

Him being old and demented, and among the all time worst presidents when it comes to the border are among two of top reasons conservatives believe.
Boy do I have news about the guy they're running against him.

Even sanctuary cities agree Trump was a substantial improvement of this drivel at the border
I think narcissistic lunatic is more fitting of Trump, with demented and senile for Biden. But they're both way too freaking old

As a sanctuary city myself, I can attest that there was no noticeable difference in who was living here under Bush, Obama, Trump, or Biden.

I have zero idea how you can make that claim
With Trump you had COVID basically the entire planet on lockdown. And under Biden your have the bussing thing going on.
So even if border policy didn't change (which it clearly did) those things along should present a world of difference
-

I can do so much more credibly than people who don't live here.
It's a city of 8 million people, I don't know how many bus loads it would take to fundamentally change anything.

My point is anecdotal evidence probably is less useful than it already is, when you're comparing covid times to shuttle bus times.
Regardless of anecdotal evidence, the numbers at the border speak for themselves
Monthly numbers are in the ballpark of 400-800% higher than they were pre Biden
