Raskin. Talk about a candidate for president. I hope he stays healthy for a long time to come. I'm not so sure about editorial behind the footage, though. There was no need to look at TFG competency when his maliciousness was demonstrable, case closed. For Biden, the effort would be to explain the behavior if it's not from wanton intent.Well, maybe, maybe not. The bill gives TikTok's parent company six months to sell the company. One imagines that they would make a heap of money doing that, so seems like a decent chance that they do. If not, I assume that they'll sue and argue that the law is unconstitutional (seems like a decent chance that they do that at the same time that they pursue buyers for the company).waitingtoconnect wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2024 4:32 pm Looks like TikTok is about to be banned.
Great wedge for the republicans. If they ban it then the youth vote will hate Biden if they don’t Biden is weak on China.
The full transcript provides a more complete window into the back and forth between the two men, in which Biden frequently joked with prosecutors in a setting that seemed more chummy than antagonistic. (“I just warn you all: Never make one great eulogy because you get asked to do everybody’s eulogy,” Biden said at one point.) But the president also frequently digressed, with stories about trips to Mongolia and about the time he helped represent a client who lost one testicle and part of his penis. He also later twice mimicked the sounds of a car.
Biden spoke of working “in my pajamas” while at the Naval Observatory, made light of his poor spelling (“If it’s spelled right, it’s probably not”), and laughed off a photo of him with a onetime ally. (“You can tell it’s old. I have my arm around Lindsey Graham.”) He joked about how much time the FBI spent inside his home during the documents probe - “The FBI know my house better than I do” - and about what agents may have discovered.

Supreme Court, Supreme Court, Supreme Court. They should have been hammering it since Obama. They did a good job in 2020 and weaker job in 2022. They should beat it like a dead horse and then beat the dead horse like a rug that needs dirt cleaned out.

It's understandable that America made a bad choice in 2016 out of ignorance. Voters knew Hilary Clinton all too well and didn't like her, but trump was a brash outsider and largely unknown, politically speaking. We thought that he might grow into the job, or that he would hire good people and let them rule while he played golf, or they would at least rein him in.GreenGoo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 9:28 amYes, and women think other women shouldn't have body autonomy.YellowKing wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 9:11 am It continuously amazes me that minorities are flocking to the guy that would just as soon have them stamped off the face of the earth.
Such are the risks of a democracy.
What I find especially bizarre is that there are four years of EVIDENCE of what a drumpf presidency entails. Evidence based thinking seems to be in short supply.
waitingtoconnect wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2024 8:08 pmThe issue is the democrats haven’t followed through on their promises because they assume trump is too crazy to vote for. They are taking voters for granted. And transparently aside from gun rights and abortion they run a unity ticket with the republicans.YellowKing wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2024 8:02 pm The polling just boggles my mind. It's seemingly like the better the economy gets the worse Joe's poll numbers. The more Trump fucks up, the better his numbers. I just don't understand reality anymore.
And on things like Israel, Afghanistan, the border etc they keep kicking their supporters in the head with either incompetence or ineptness.
The thing s important to the real person on the street they ignore in a cost of living crisis.
Did they repeal the trump tax cuts? No. Have they delivered real minimum wage support. No. Have they delivered real health care (which we can afford). No. Have they kept us in endless forever wars overseas. Yes. Have they done anything about the border. No.
So like Drazzil? (Was that his name?) people want Trump to shake it up or in his own folly to burn it down so they get the change they know democrats keep promising but won’t give them.
I can't grasp how any non stupid hateful asshole could look at that stupid hateful asshole and think "hey, he's probably God's chosen" and yet they do seem to exist in spite of my lack of ability to comprehend.
First off, that's hyperbole. Trump doesn't want them wiped off the earth, he just doesn't care all that much about any difficulties those communities face. He's willing to use them, just as he uses everyone else, to get what he wants.YellowKing wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 9:11 am It continuously amazes me that minorities are flocking to the guy that would just as soon have them stamped off the face of the earth.
Yes, but the GOP is suggesting what's happening is somehow Biden's fault when instead a large portion of it is greedflation, created by corporations. COVID tested what people would put up with (financially) and now that a new limit has been experienced, magically corporations have moved into that space to carve out even more money. But as long as the GOP can somehow blame the Democrats and Joe Biden for the weekly grocery bill, that's all that matters.
So it's *not* genocide, is what I'm hearing.
A perfect April Fools joke.Dogstar wrote: ↑Mon Apr 01, 2024 8:42 am Not that it should come as an earth-shaking surprise for anyone this weekend, especially after Trump started selling Bibles, but he posted two headlines/articles just in time for Easter weekend.
The crucifixion of Donald Trump
Praise Jesus.
Who could have foreseen that they might not be able to field a candidate with a shot at winning?"No Labels has always said we would only offer our ballot line to a ticket if we could identify candidates with a credible path to winning the White House," No Labels CEO and co-founder Nancy Jacobson said in a statement. "No such candidates emerged, so the responsible course of action is for us to stand down."
If ever conditions were ripe for an independent/third party victory, it's when both major parties are running historically unpopular candidates. No Labels might have had a shot if they'd been able to recruit a popular big name from each side of the aisle. 'Course, it's more likely they would have just been a major spoiler, so we're probably better off without that. IDK who those rock-star candidates might have been anyway.El Guapo wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2024 3:17 pm I did enjoy this quote:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has said he would consider pardoning Jan. 6 defendants if elected president, and his campaign compared them to "political prisoner" Julian Assange.

“Currency revaluation is likely to be a priority for some members of a potential second Trump administration, mainly because of the viewpoint that [an overvalued dollar] contributes to the trade deficit,” said one former Trump administration official, adding that Lighthizer and his team are the primary advocates for the approach.
But weakening the dollar could have other far-reaching consequences, from sending consumer prices for imported products soaring, to inviting retaliation from other countries and threatening the dollar’s role as world reserve currency, which would undermine U.S. sanctions on adversaries like Iran and Russia.
