Go, Joe!

Best living president ever!

After the practice had been stopped by Trump, Joe reintroduced ideological indoctrination of federal employees with CRT. That's open corruption, but hey it's for a just cause.

Joe tried to introduce CRT teaching at public schools by sponsoring those schools with federal funds who comply, but had to retract that when it became public.

The DOJ had launched a lawsuit against Yale under Trump claiming racial discrimination of white and Asian students. Joe had the DOJ drop the lawsuit. Obviously Joe, and the Democrats in general, have no problem with racism provided it doesn't go against any of the sacred groups.

Errr, gotten the civilians out before the troops? Told his supposed allies in NATO what the plan was? Maybe prepared a plan B?
In the real world
Quote:
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed that the military alliance gave approval for the Biden administration’s complete withdrawal from Afghanistan, pushing back on speculation that leaders voiced objections to the decision.

In an interview with The New York Times published Friday, the NATO chief said that none of the alliance’s members voiced objections to President Biden’s plan to leave Afghanistan before his announcement in April.

Re: Will Biden be a good President?

Biden's trip down to California this week to support Governor Newsom from being recalled went well with 59% of the vote already counted and Newsom supported by almost two-thirds of the vote.

Quite what the Republicans were thinking when they tried to recall a Democrat governor in a state where Dems outnumber the GOP by 2 to 1 is a mystery. Huge waste of taxpayer money running that election.

Re: Will Biden be a good President?

At least he didn't fall asleep this time.

US president Joe Biden was abruptly cut off in a live feed mid-sentence by the White House on Monday during a briefing on wildfires with federal and state officials.

The incident comes at a time when some White House staffers have allegedly stopped listening to Mr Biden speak in public when he goes off script.

He was interrupted last month as well at a press conference, when his audio on the White House feed was cut off as he was about to answer a reporter’s question on his decision to withdraw troops from Afghanistan.

Having experienced SF recently I genuinely don't know what I'd do when presented with the choice between Larry Elder and a California Democrat.

They had some nerve banning outdoor dining longer than any other state given they are pretty chillaxed on outdoor crack.

What is SF? San Francisco?

I don't think Newson is great, nor do I think it is a well run state. But Larry Elder is a f------- lunatic. Like frankly most of the contemporary GOP are.

The reported conversations b/w Milley and the Chinese around Jan 6 are unbelievable. Trump is a mad man.

Re: Will Biden be a good President?

Looks like Biden's tent is too big. Both Manchin / Sinema and the left don't see the big picture here.

Re: Will Biden be a good President?

Good luck to Krysten Sinema at Boston Marathon today. Unfortunately some a-holes will try to harras her to try to change her vote on the "Build Back Better" vote.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-Marathon.html

I think such behavior is abhorrent. Don't these people know she and Joe Manchin work for their states not the overall US progressive movement

True, although some of Sinema‘s support in her home state is waning.

Maybe from Progressives but Arizona Senators almost always are „Mavericks“ who sort of straddle a centrist line. ( See Jeff Flake, John Mccain)

Re: Will Biden be a good President?

I can't believe it. Joe Biden actually unified the U.S. All across the U.S, in sports stadiums both pro and collegiate, music festivals or any other gathering of large groups of people one can hear the chant of "Lets Go Brandon". LMAO

Come on Brandon! LETS FUC#ING GO!!

P.s who is Brandon?

The only "left wing media" that calls out the BS and tells it like it is.
This was epic but he needs to chill before they cancel him. Too much truth.

Meanwhile, sleepy Joe said on live tv that the US will defend Taiwan if it gets attacked by China.

It's a massive relief that this didn't happen under Trump, because that would have meant the end of the world. Coming from Biden however it's barely worth reporting on.

The sooner that man steps down the better. Even if it means POTUS Harris for a while.
