[QUOTE=Canada;2670449]No troops but Biden should have put in a no fly zone to at least appear he is helping the Ukrainians. When any country puts thousands of troops into a neighboring country like Belarus to intimidate Ukraine it is an act of war. Biden should have started sanctions immediately starting with oil. Biden is a joke to the world. He is responsible for thousands of deaths. You are one of the few people in the world that thinks Russian shouldn't be penalized for this horrible invasion. You are one of the few people on the world that thinks we should support Russia oil. You and Biden can take pride that your support of Russia is helping Russia take Ukraine. You must be proud.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2670493]Zelensky is asking for everything, early and often. Good for him. His highest priority is the people of Ukraine, not the people of America.

Shocker! This current POTUS' priorities are the American people, our national security and our economy.

Yes, it sucks to be Ukraine right now. Maybe Zelensky should have been more interested in and applying for membership in some of these democratic Western alliances and done what was necessary to join them a lot sooner than when Putin started lining up troops at his border. Maybe his hesitation was that he fell for the Putin / Trump con that those alliances are yesterday's solutions, unnecessary, a waste of time and money, etc.

He sure is scrambling to join some now. Lesson learned I assume. Same for other countries.[/QUOTE]That's not fair. Maybe he could've done better, maybe not, but he did try and was continuously ignored. The docile, impotent way the West reacted to Putin's banditry in 2014 was a disgrace. 1938 all over again.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2670493]It was not Biden or America's job to jump ahead of sovereign nations to initiate saber rattling sanctions against their enemies before they act stupidly beyond what we were already doing. That is, after the Repubs dropped the necessary Ukraine Military Aid ball entirely from their agenda as far back as 2016 and after Trump got busted by the Dems and properly Impeached for all manner of manipulation to Defund Military Aid To Ukraine on Putin's obvious demand.

Sure, Zelensky now wishes Biden had been running everything in, out and all around his country to keep its borders as safe from Russian incursion as every member country of NATO enjoys, to the years long outrage of Putin, Trump and their fellow Republicans. Next time[/QUOTE]Again, maybe Zelensky could've done better, maybe he couldn't. I'm sure he received plenty of advice from us and our European allies to keep low profile and not poke the bear. If Zelinsky is guilty of complacency, then we are responsible too.

This is the middle of winter in most of Europe. If Russia cuts off oil and gas to Europe, how do the Europeans heat their homes. How do they run their public transportation networks?

Biden's MO is "Ready. Aim. Fire. " Let's figure it out with our allies and do what is best for everybody.

The Orange Fruitcake's MO was "Ready. Fire. Aim." Let's stop buying Russian oil. Wait? What? Gasoline prices are rising? How come oil producers didn't pump more? Oh, well, I don't take any responsibility for it."

The House select committee investigating the January 6 attack on the USA Capitol said in a court filing late Wednesday that it had evidence that former President Trump and his allies engaged in a "criminal conspiracy" by trying to block Congress from certifying the election.

This is the first time the committee has laid out a potential criminal case against Trump. The committee's filing represented a significant moment in its investigation, because it included rare disclosures of its findings. It also included excerpts of the panel's depositions and interviews with witnesses, including former Vice President Mike Pence's top advisers, former Justice Department leaders, and those close to Trump.

Wednesday's filing was in response to a lawsuit brought by right-wing attorney John Eastman, who advised Trump in his final weeks in office. Eastman has refused to provide documents to the committee and invoked attorney-client privilege, saying he was Trump's lawyer.

How does John Eastmen prove he was TrumpShit's attorney with any evidence other than unpaid invoices for TrumpLevel legal services?

When Putin is replaced, the replacement might slit Putin's throat and hang his naked corpse upside down in the center of Moscow with its head touching the ground so the people of Russia can piss, shit and spit on it for the following few weeks.

But if Biden and the alliances impose sanctions on Russian oil, that oil isn't going to sit unsold in Russia. China will buy it. Somebody will buy it anyway because the world needs oil.

Russia would barely notice it if the USA stopped buying oil from them because we import so relatively little of it. But other countries, many of them our allies, rely quite a bit on Russian oil imports.

What Biden would be doing by rallying a hardline alliance sanction of Russian oil is asking our allies to make all the sacrifices while our oil purchasing adversaries benefit and while we skate from any real sacrifice over it. Not exactly the usual American way of doing these things.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2670504]There has been quite an improvement in Americans' quality of life over these past few months compared to all the school and business closures and lockdowns Joe inherited from Trump's cowardice, lies and grossly negligent handling of the potential pandemic that converted it well and surely into the deadly Trump's Pandemic it became.

You don't get to this Morning In America by declaring the potential emerging Pandemic you left America bare ass naked against preventing or quickly responding to as a "Hoax" and spending almost that full first critical year mocking the known mitigation measures and trying to discourage anyone and everyone not to bother inventing or taking a vaccine for it.

You get there by following the science, as Biden did.

Biden humbly touted his historic positive economic achievements right past the typically pro Repub Mainstream Media's refusal to mention it in favor of highlighting and promoting inflation hysteria instead.

[QUOTE]"This is an unusual bounce," Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, said in a statement. "It gets him back to where he was pre-Afghanistan."

The last time Biden had a higher approval rating was in August, when it was at 49 percent. While presidents can sometimes get a bounce after a State of the Union, one of more than 4 points in an NPR poll has happened only six times since 1978.[/QUOTE]Actually, Quinnipiac was already showing incremental and steady increases in Biden's Job Approval Rating since the beginning of January. Possibly Gallup as well:

Imo and, as I stated before, this is not coincidentally the same timeframe when Trump began to hit the Repub campaign trail, opening his piehole and reminding everyone why Biden beat the snot out of him in every presidential debate including the one where Trump tried but failed to infect him with Trump's Pandemic Virus and the one where Trump was too scared shitless to show up, followed by Biden's landslide victory against him in the most secure, free and fair election of all time.

This linked poll jump occurred mostly before the CDC announced that Biden's amazingly effective vaccine administration roll out has now led them to conclude more than 90% of Americans can drop wearing a mask under most circumstances and before that recent fantastic Biden / Dem Economic Recovery and Expansion jobs creation report.

1. Putin will have to sell it cheaply, he's out of bargaining chips.

2. How are they going to pay for it. In rubles, yuans? I really don't know.

3. Can China risk this kind of exposure as Russia continues its homicidal war?

4. Europe, I think, has finally realized they can't afford to depend on Russia anymore.

In any case, what's the alternative? To pay lip service to Ukraine while these degenerates are pounding at the nuclear stations? Can cost even more.

None of the enemies of freedom and democracy needed to go to war against any of the hard fought and won American values and principles Trump was doing a bang up job tearing down on their behalf.

The first enemy to our enemies' decades long causes they saw in the White House since Barack Obama was Joe Biden.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2670464]Deny and ignore the right decision. Typical democrat. Keep waiting to make the decision to sanction Russia oil until Russia defeats Ukraine.

They suspected that these trumpers were going to cause a lot of trouble on January 6th. So they decided to work with their counterparts in suburban Virginia and suburban Maryland and together they decided to arrest all of these trumpers on January 5th.

One of the bad intelligence reports he received was from 71+ million doofuses in America yelling at the top of their lungs "Biden is weak", "Biden is weak", "Biden is weak". Putin, of course, was an idiot for believing that the collective IQ of these people could decorate a domino (not) but the voices from the wingers was loud. And Putin understands loud.

Guess what, wingers? Your cries of "Biden is weak", "Biden is weak", "Biden is weak" is one of the reasons Putin invaded. Why do you hate America? Why do you hate Ukraine? Why do you support Russia?

They blather on about things they know absolutely nothing about like no-fly zones, sanctions in general, oil sanctions, etc while telling all of us that what they really believe in is the "Ready. Fire. Aim. " MO of the Orange Fruitcake. In other words, let's do something without thinking it through. Then, when the blowback happens, tell everybody that it is somebody else's fault and not his.

They simply do not have the ability to understand a strategy that takes into account the realities of the real world. They prefer the "bull in a China shop" approach where America's interests are the only thing that matters and if what we do hurts other countries, so what!. After all, that's what Donnie's approach was.

They also don't understand that the strategy of yelling "Biden is weak" at the top of their lungs day-in-and-day-out is one of the reasons that Putin decided to invade Ukraine when he did.

I guess this post should have just said that supporters of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy just don't understand.

Biden controls the transportation of oil in USA. The only way domestic oil production increase rapidly is if Biden eliminates the stupid regulations he imposed and starts drilling on federal lands again. Also he needs to fast track the pipelines he cancelled. Biden is supporting the terrorist countries like Russia and Iran. Trump had Iran oil sanctioned so that would cut funding for Iran nuclear development but Biden is allowing Iran to sell $1 million barrels a day and about half to USA. Why is Biden so friendly to terrorists? I guess Biden and you think Russia and Aidan are our allies.

No need to go around. The Berlin Wall had guard towers, the Great Wall had guard towers, prison walls have guard towers. The reason being that if there is no one guarding the wall then people find it easy to go through or over or under with little more difficulty than no wall at all.

The concept of this nuclear equilibrium is MAD.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2670929]Gee, I hope the border situation under Biden doesn't produce something terrible like wiping out millions upon millions of USA jobs, a mass murder of almost a million Americans in just 2 years, destruction of worldwide supply chains and the inevitable hyper inflation that follows, a historic 30% rise in crime in a single year and the violent attempted overthrow of American democracy.

Nobody had a worry about that happening under Trump, right?

Thank heaven for that tiny useless stretch of wall in the desert and the only 8% completed oil transport pipeline. Sure signs that Trump really cared about the American people.[/QUOTE]With Biden policies everything bad is possible. With open borders terrorists can just walk into our country so yes you are right. Thousands of Americans could be killed by an open border. Under Biden and democrats policies crime and murders are up over 30% already.

If the democrats hadn't tried to block and stall the wall like they did for 4 years Trump would have the wall completed right now. If Trump was president today the Pipeline would be completed now with several other pipelines. If Trump was president oil production would not have gone down 1.2 million barrels a day but increased 1 million barrels a day. If Trump was pre stew would not be buying Russian oil and funding the war in Ukraine. If Trump were president we would be export oil and LNG to Europe to make them less dependent on Russia oil. Yes Biden and the democrats are responsible for killing USA independence and responsible for the crime and inflation.

That's one of the big reasons why Putin invaded. You wingers gave him the impetus.

The USA is in this mess because of you. And now, you doofuses don't have a way out. You say "Let's impose a no-fly zone and if that doesn't work, let's bomb Russia back to the stone age.

Of course, it can be successful. It most likely would be. I seriously doubt Putin's mad enough to sacrifice himself and his family. On the other hand, we don't know if he IS or ISN'T THAT MAD, And if he is, that's the end-of-the-world event. Are you willing to put your own life and lives of everyone you love in this world on a flip of a coin?

Well, maybe you are, what do I know?[/QUOTE]Frankly, the wingers on this board are simply don't have the mental acuity to do anything but bloviate.

They said that Biden should have imposed sanctions on Russia before they did anything. When we said "So you would have been OK with DC, VA and MD local police forces arresting trumpers on January 5th because they thought they'd cause trouble on January 6th," the wingers shut up. They, of course, didn't have the mental acuity to make the leap.

Then they said, and I paraphrase, "Let's declare a no fly zone in kind of a pretend fashion". Sure, let's prove to Putin that we're weak. I guess they didn't have the mental acuity to make that leap either.

Now they're saying "Let's enforce a no-fly zone. " They don't have the mental acuity to realize, as you rightly pointed out, that it has never before been done when nuclear weapons were on the table.

But the other thing that they don't know (that pesky mental acuity thing again) is that there are only three (3) groups with sufficient resources to enforce a no-fly zone in Ukraine. Those are the EU, NATO and, of course, the US. Putin knows full well that the USA is aligned with both the EU and NATO. So whichever of those groups tries to enforce a no-fly zone, Putin will, if he decides to, nuke both them and us.

Of course, wingers don't care about that. Wingers claim to be "America first" but don't seem to care if America is an uninhabitable wasteland for the next thousand years. This is the result, of course, of buying in to the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS' method of operation called "Ready, Fire. Aim. " That's what foreign policy looks like when you're a winger.

The most obvious solutions to the oil price is "Stop using oil" for cars. Its not like there is no alternative available.

[B]U.S. gasoline prices soar to highest since 2008 on Russia conflict[/B]

[URL]https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-gasoline-prices-soar-highest-since-2008-russia-conflict-aaa-2022-03-06/[/URL]

See that "since 2008" part? Yeah, that means gas prices were higher under two Repubs ago. Oh, and Bush2's economic stewardship was pushing his Unemployment Rate from 5% to 7.3% by the end of 2008 to 10% within a few months, while he had wiped out millions upon millions of USA jobs. Sound familiar?

Just like inflation was higher under 4 Repubs ago, back in 1982. And the Reagan Unemployment Rate in just that year went from 8.6% to 10.8% and on into several months of 10%+ the following year!

Biden's Unemployment Rate just fell from 4% to 3.8% and his economic stewardship has added historic record numbers and percentages of new, higher paying USA jobs along the way. Big difference.

Nobody who doesn't have a white hot hatred for America would trade these economic times for either of those just to temporarily pay a few dollars less for a tank of gas. Unless you can twist yourself into an illogical pretzel to come up with some reason for it. Be my guest.

Maybe 80% of it from Russia by now instead of about 7% or less.

Here's a suggestion for anyone crying over the cost of a gallon of gas that is less today than it was under 2 Repubs ago.

Walk.

Can't walk? Buy an electric vehicle. How about an electric motorbike for things you need to do around town, shopping, dining out, running errands, even commuting to and from work if you work within a reasonable distance.

One of the EV promoting ideas floated by Biden was giving a $900 tax credit for the purchase of an electric bike or motorbike. Look for Know Nothing, Do Nothing Repubs to trash that idea and vote against it.

I have an electric motorbike that costs almost exactly $900 USD including a spare portable battery that easily pops out and I charge it in my apartment, swap it out for the other fully charged battery in a snap anytime. Charge time from zero to full is about 6-7 hours. Do it overnight. With a spare battery ready to be swapped, there is virtually no down time. Swapping out my battery takes less time than refueling in a gas station.

With or without a passenger, I cruise all over Bangkok on it. Cool as fuck. I can split traffic lanes, zip through and around traffic jams better than seasoned motorbike taxi drivers.

If it takes a regular auto taxi or you in your car 45-60 minutes to go somewhere in the city, I can probably do it comfortably and without breaking any traffic laws in 10-15 minutes.

After the low cost of purchase, the "fuel" costs, the cost in electricity, runs about 30 cents per week or less. You read that right. About $0. 30 USD per week. I don't even notice an increase in my monthly electric bill.

I get about 45 miles on a full battery charge, a full charge costs me about 3 THB and between these two batteries I fully charge a battery approximately three times a week.

I bought a $10 tire pump and I have absolutely no reason to go into a gas station unless it's to use their toilet or buy a Thai Milk Tea. I don't even know or care how much a litre of gasoline costs around here.

Repubs have fought tooth and nail to prevent the ease, convenience, fun and dirt cheap energy / fuel costs I am enjoying from being a well understood and appreciated option in the USA since forever.

Now Andrei Kozyrev, a former Russian Foreign Minister, has said just the opposite. He said that wingers were one of the causes of the invasion. [URL]https://news.yahoo.com/former-russian-foreign-minister-lays-085946619.html[/URL].

"The West. The Russian ruling elite believed its own propaganda that Pres. Biden is mentally inept. ."

I wonder where Russia got the idea that Biden was 'mentally inept'? Perhaps from all of the idiot trumpers who have been shouting it from the rooftops for the past 18 months? With this proof that trumpers played a large part in Putin's decision to invade Ukraine, I wonder what they're going to say?

Actually, I don't wonder at all. As usual they will lie, deflect, blame the source, yell "fake news", go silent or some other winger drivel. Will they accept responsibility? The answer to that question can be found in the answer to the question "When did the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy ever take responsibility for a mistake?

In her plea to sanction Russian oil and slam POTUS Joe Biden on Sunday's Meet The Press, Nikki Haley asserts that America is "taking money from evil dictators" like Putin.

Here is a link to a clip of her saying it once. But actually that was the second time she said it during the 8-10 minute interview:

[URL]https://mobile.twitter.com/atrupar/status/1500505987010211845[/URL]

Presumably, both times she meant to say America is "giving" money to Russia by buying its oil, not "taking" money from Russia by buying its oil.

You could tell she had really practiced and rehearsed that Repub talking point over and over again.

Yet she flubbed it, saying the exact opposite of what she apparently meant to say.

Twice.

So far I have not seen that clip of her weird misspeak on international television going viral on Twitter as clear evidence that she has late stage dementia.

Obviously Manchin and the rest of the "Let's implement a no fly zone" idiots either have no clue what a no-fly zone means or they have no clue what the ramifications are of enforcing one. And, yes, Zelenskyy is included in that statement.

So we will get further dependent on foreign oil. Why do you lie about my loyalty to Russia? I want Biden to man up and squash them. Sanction their oil and bankrupt them.

Thanks joe for crippling inflation and high gas prices. Trump looks like a genius now.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2671436]Dems have been pushing for more electric and other alternative energy source research and investment for decades in order to, among many other things, avoid current situations while Repubs have derided and dismissed them, only coming up with "Drill Baby Drill. " If we had only been drilling as long as Repubs had been begging us to do that and only that and at their desired level, USA reserves might have hit bottom years ago and we'd have been importing 100% of the oil we need today. Maybe 80% of it from Russia by now instead of about 7% or less.

Here's a suggestion for anyone crying over the cost of a gallon of gas that is less today than it was under 2 Repubs ago.

Walk.

Can't walk? Buy an electric vehicle. How about an electric motorbike for things you need to do around town, shopping, dining out, running errands, even commuting to and from work if you work within a reasonable distance.

One of the EV promoting ideas floated by Biden was giving a $900 tax credit for the purchase of an electric bike or motorbike. Look for Know Nothing, Do Nothing Repubs to trash that idea and vote against it.

I have an electric motorbike that costs almost exactly $900 USD including a spare portable battery that easily pops out and I charge it in my apartment, swap it out for the other fully charged battery in a snap anytime. Charge time from zero to full is about 6-7 hours. Do it overnight. With a spare battery ready to be swapped, there is virtually no down time. Swapping out my battery takes less time than refueling in a gas station.[/QUOTE]You are about as smart as Biden. Yes get rid of your car and get a bike or electric motor bike. Let's go backwards. Yes great to take the family of 4 to the movies on your bike. Kids sitting on the handlebars. Yes December in New York City and it is 10 degrees and snowing. Time to go to Manhattan on my 90 minute bike ride to work. Yes. Just got to jfk airport going to find a electric trike taxi to take me home. How about North Dakota? Tide your bike in 40 below weather. Are you that stupid? Just because you can't afford to live in USA doesn't mean we are going backwards.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2671361]"Simple but complicated"? LOL. Only if you're about to twist like an illogical pretzel in order to arrive at more totally debunked conspiracy theory lunacy. Which you did.

We don't have record high gas prices:

See that "since 2008" part? Yeah, that means gas prices were higher under two Repubs ago. Oh, and Bush2's economic stewardship was pushing his Unemployment Rate from 5% to 7.3% by the end of 2008 to 10% within a few months, while he had wiped out millions upon millions of USA jobs. Sound familiar?

Just like inflation was higher under 4 Repubs ago, back in 1982. And the Reagan Unemployment Rate in just that year went from 8.6% to 10.8% and on into several months of 10%+ the following year!.[/QUOTE]Biden's unemployment is getting close to where it was pre pandemic Trump presidency but not there yet. Almost all the people that were out of work mostly in democrat states have gone back to work. Once everyone has gone back to work and we reach Trump pre pandemic employment then Biden will have created his first job. Biden has done nothing and trying to make it sound like he has done something.

Putin has already said that our recent level of sanctions amount to a declaration of war, so it's on with him as it is anyway. Yes he could bring out the nukes but that's suicide. Does he want to commit suicide? It's possible, but pandering to this psycho, either by Trump or Biden has brought little in the way of results. It's foolish for Biden to keep announcing his intentions, or lack thereof when it comes to our military involvement.

I see you, Tucker Carlson.

I hear the scoffs and indignant snorts, the mating call of a man whose entire schtick is porcine outrage, a honking clarion call summoning the herd of gullible simpletons to his fuckshack of untruths. I hear the nauseatingly smug boyish giggles, your voice always rising in pitch as you work yourself up into a lather, every sentence ending in a question designed purely to provoke.

Far better to phrase everything as a query, isn't it, Tucker Carlson? I'm just asking questions here! I can't possibly be stating things as fact, because then I'd get sued, and would have to embarrassingly admit in court for the thousandth time that everything I spout is basically terrible trust-fund amateur stand-up. Have you heard the one about the migrant caravan of gay black woke transgender feminists yet? Of course not, because I've only just made it up!

I see the ruddy Ku Klux Glans of your contrarian face, so hopelessly shiny despite the constant dusting of studio makeup. Why are you always so impossibly pink, Tucker Carlson? Your entire head seems to glow, to the point that if I glimpsed it on the horizon in an RPG I'd assume I could walk up to you and pick up a racist sidequest.

You always look so raw and exposed, like you've just rolled a foreskin down over your entire face and tucked it away in your collar. Tucker Carlson, the crybully bigoted Boobah. If only we could rinse you off in the bathtub, rather than having to endure the absolute smegma you shed onto the airwaves every evening.

What fun it's been this week, watching you hopelessly flounder as your Russian chickens fly bombs into Ukraine before coming home to roost. As one of Putin's most ardent cheerleaders and apologists, you've now got to frantically backpedal, pretending pathetically that this war has somehow taken you entirely by surprise. Erm, what? You've spent the last five years clinging to the tan-stained toga of his pet false emperor and favourite asset, Tucker Carlson.

You've derided any criticism of Russia's proven destabilisation tactics as a contrived hoax, and painted those who attempted to expose it as traitors and partisan hacks. You've lauded the utterly fictional machismo and strength of the pathetically fragile criminal fuck who actively withheld aid from Ukraine in an attempt to extort them. Now, all of a sudden the war renders it less than palatable to paw at the Kremlin's throne?

Nice try, you shameless, collaborating little shitweasel. The first casualty of war is the truth, and you've been firing the opening salvo on Russia's behalf for years now.

It should be no surprise to anyone paying attention that you, and the whole pantheon of mewling white grievance crybabies like you, are already pivoting to somehow lay this tragedy at the doorstep of your ideological opponents. Pinning Russian aggression in Ukraine on 'woke culture' isn't just a leap of logic; it's a rocket-powered jump over a yawning abyss of disingenuous bullshit. How many cringeworthy and rambling hot takes from the trans-obsessed public schoolboy weirdos at Spiked have we got to endure? Just how tight a knot do they have to tie themselves into when attempting to blame a few student lesbians with pink hair for Russia's imperialist land-grab before they finally disappear up their own arseholes and suffocate? What is the actual point of any of their vacuous, reductive arguments about the West's apparent 'obsession' with wokeness? Putin isn't invading Ukraine because NATO is too busy quibbling about pronouns, and these nauseating hacks fucking well know it.

Which is the whole point of your cartoon schtick, isn't it, Tucker Carlson? You know full well that you're an ideological lightweight, a man of so few genuine convictions that you can squeak your way out of libel cases with the defence that only an idiot would ever take you seriously. It's all just a giant game to you, a man with absolutely no intellectual clout or meritorious insight, who instead falsely measures his intelligence by the yardstick of how well he reads an autocue. Deep down, despite the veneer of professionalism and your desperate desire to be seen as credible, you know exactly what sort of man you are.

You're the Tucker Carlson in his silly little bow tie, utterly humiliated and excoriated by the genuine wit and charisma of Jon Stewart in that episode of Crossfire all those years ago. You're the Tucker Carlson who dropped the facade to let rip his raging temper at Rutger Bregman when he called you out and exposed you as precisely the sort of elite-pandering hypocrite you pretend to rail against.

Deep down, behind all the front and bluster, you're the Tucker Carlson who exists in both of those pathetic, embarrassing moments; a tiny little man with nothing to offer but bluster and rage, hopelessly small and effortlessly eclipsed by anything even vaguely approaching an actual intellect.

And now? Now you've got a third pea of humiliation to add to the towering pile of mattresses that is your absolute narcissism. The knowledge that you genuinely thought you were smart enough to dance to Putin's tune without exposing yourself. Sadly not, comrade, and the world won't soon forget it.

I see you, Tucker Carlson. I fucking see you.

"Real" journalists at the Atlantic? That is a classic Dem move.

And he has not talked to MBS yet? Yes, with oil now tripling in price, Biden has not talked to the world's largest exporter of crude even now? That is a story in and of itself. How dumb can Biden be? He must have had more important things to do like eating ice cream and taking a nap.

You Dem dummies still cannot grasp that $120 oil means an automatic recession, and Biden is floundering around. We got Eih talking electric bikes. PV Monger saying our criticism of Biden led to the Ukraine invasion and now you defending Biden not talking to the Saudis.

You all are really fucking losing it right now. Even after all the stupid shit Biden has done on oil, which will lead to a recession, you are still supporting him. Are you all really this stupid or are you getting paid off?

On his first day in office, Biden gave a middle finger to the American oil industry, and all you DDs are saying is that it did not matter. It is pretty obvious to the rest of us that it did.

[QUOTE=Canada;2671718]I am not deflecting. Biden president: There is a war in Ukraine killing millions of innocent people and oil prices are $120 a barrel. Trump president: No war in Ukraine and oil prices were $40 a barrel. Only deflecting is you talking about Trump. I don't care if Trump was impeached 10 times as long as there were no wars or high gas and oil prices. Trump kept us out of wars and low inflation while he was falsely impeached two times. Just shows his capabilities far exceed Biden's. It is time for you to man up and admit Biden is a failure. The rest of the world sees it. Why can't you?[/QUOTE]Sheesh. I don't know what it will take for you to [B]read[/B] the article I linked to and to [B]understand[/B] it. Here it is again: [URL]https://news.yahoo.com/former-russian-foreign-minister-lays-085946619.html[/URL].

The article contains a quote from former Russian Foreign Minister Andrei Kozyrev. In it he says that "The Russian ruling elite believed its own propaganda that Pres. Biden is mentally inept. "

What part of that statement don't you understand? Do you deny that you and every idiotic trumper has been shouting some version of "Biden is mentally inept" from the rooftops for approximately the past 18 months?

Any discussion that does not focus on the Kozyrev's statement that "The Russian ruling elite believed its own propaganda that Pres. Biden is mentally inept. " is [B]deflection[/B]. Do you not understand that?

Since you obviously don't understand, let me break it down for you in simple, easy to understand terms:

1. Putin is part of the Russian ruling elite;.

2. Propaganda, according to the dictionary, means "information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view. "; and.

3. The group in the US who is primarily responsible for telling the world that "Biden is mentally inept" are trumpers and other Republicans.

My dog was able to understand this. Are you? Are the rest of the trumpers?

What if I old you the Puppet sent a delegation to see Maduro for oil?

Puppet: I want more oil.

Maduro: Unfreeze my Ass-ets and I'll think about it.

America is not at war under Biden.

My god, man. This has been going on and proven on video for years. You have clearly watched too much FUX News Channel and too little real news:

[B]"Republicans repeating Russian talking points"[/B] [URL]https://www.msnbc.com/deadline-white-house/watch/republicans-repeating-russian-talking-points-74125381780[/URL].

Biden has already taken and aced several competency tests. He beat the snot out of Trump at every presidential debate just over a year ago including the one where Trump tried but incompetently failed to infect Biden with his Trump's Pandemic virus and the one Trump was too scared shitless to competently show up for it.

Additionally, Biden's competent American Rescue Plan, historic biprtisan Infrastructure Legislation, Child Tax Credit, astonishingly competent and successful administration and delivery of effective vaccines that Trump spent a critical year mocking and discouraging for free to every American smart enough to ignore Trump and take them, etc have competently produced better economic results across the board and created more, better and higher paying jobs than all three of the previous incompetent Repub so-called presidents combined.

At this rate, it is likely Biden's competence will have created more and better jobs than all 4 previous Repub presidents combined by the end of this year and more than all Repub presidents since 1860 by the end of his first term.

That is passing any and all necessary competency tests with flying colors.

We all know FUX News Channel, Newsmax and so on fake news sources feed winger minds with easily debunked lies by the hour. But this now often repeated lie about there being "no war" under Trump but now we are at war under Biden is some kind of summit example of winger mass hypnosis and ignorance.

A late update for wingers:

America was at war, directly and physically engaged in a boots-on-the-ground losing war in Afghanistan throughout the entirety of the Trump so-called presidency. Every year, month, week, day, hour, minute and second of it from beginning to end.

Trump lost that war so badly he agreed to an unconditional surrender to the Taliban 100% on their timeline and terms even as our boots-on-the-ground troop involvement continued until Trump's successor conducted the most successful and least deadly withdrawal of a surrendering, losing side of a combat war in history, suffering zero gunfire attacks along the way and only one impossible to predict or prevent lone lunatic suicide bomber event that killed 13 USA military personnel and many more Afghans.

Today, America is not at war with any country.

In case there is any doubt that Biden doing anything positive for democracy or in advance of Putin's actual invasion of Ukraine would be twisted into an "excuse" for Putin's invasion and cited as a reason to "blame" Biden for it, our always reliable resident Sado-Masochist winger chimes in with Exhibit A evidence right on cue.

Zelensky was cracking jokes, shrugging off and lampooning the idea that Putin would actually invade right up until mere hours before he did.

If Biden had jumped in front of that, interjected America into the Russia-Ukraine face off and punished Putin for invading before he actually invaded Ukraine, I suspect even Zelensky would today be joining every winger on the planet suggesting "We had this under control! This is our style! If only Biden had kept his nose out of it, Putin would not have invaded Ukraine"!

1. US miscalculated the effect the embargo will have on Putin. As I have posted the Russian ambassadors comments few days ago, embargo will have no effect on Putin personally but will have on the Americans! We're seeing it.

2. Russia has the upper hand in this war as big part of the Eastern Ukraine is taken over and the Ukrainian troops are encircled, think safe corridors. US thinks by banning the oil will convince Putin to stop. He's more than likely to close Nord Stream 1 and leave Germany with no source of energy! Another miscalculation.

3. Both.

Any way it goes, Europe is screwed, Americans feeling it and the administration will manipulate the outcome as a win just like they're trying to do with COVID!

Trump was the one showing weakness, kowtowing to Putin at every opportunity, taking no action over cyber attacks, screwing over Ukraine on military aid, having Rudy cosy up to the Russian disinformation bureau in search for Hunter dirt because he was so reviled by the American people he was grasping at every straw to be reelected, and his sanctions were having no effect on Nord Stream 2 completion just like his ineffective Iran sanctions. Yep he really showed Putin how successful he was in putting his puppet in power in 2016.

So basically unless the US is prepared to go into open warfare over Ukraine there is little Biden can do apart from making it as costly as possible for the Russian people and the ruling elite. In this he has been very successful in banding together a coalition to put in place crippling restriction on Russia, something Trump would never have achieved as Iran sanctions proved. Europe better work overtime to shore up alternative energy supplies and buy lots of warm clothing for next winter. After that they will be in good position to give Putin's energy the finger and not make the same mistake again of becoming reliant on him.

1. US miscalculated the effect the embargo will have on Putin. As I have posted the Russian ambassadors comments few days ago, embargo will have no effect on Putin personally but will have on the Americans! We're seeing it.

2. Russia has the upper hand in this war as big part of the Eastern Ukraine is taken over and the Ukrainian troops are encircled, think safe corridors. US thinks by banning the oil will convince Putin to stop. He's more than likely to close Nord Stream 1 and leave Germany with no source of energy! Another miscalculation.

3. Both.

Any way it goes, Europe is screwed, Americans feeling it and the administration will manipulate the outcome as a win just like they're trying to do with COVID!

Is it just incompetence? Or Hunter's crack habit is effecting the patriarch?[/QUOTE]Ok, I "won't reply" that with your tortured analysis that does not even factor in a moment of pain for the Russian people but has Europe getting screwed, the American people suffering in agony, Team Biden manipulating a huge loss for them into a fake "win" like their, apparently to you, phony spin that fully vaccinated people are not falling seriously ill and dying from Trump's Pandenic virus at probably greater percentages than ever before and certainly in greater percentages than unvaccinated people while "Russia", as in Putin, has the upper hand and Putin, as in Putin, will come out of this smelling like a rose no matter what, well, let's just say it has been duly noted which side you are on and who you are rooting for.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2671984]This is another example of a Dem losing it. Here the article says the Russians bought their own propaganda not Republican propaganda. Maybe in your fucked up head Russian and Republican are the same things but those of us with functioning mental capacity know they are different.

Of course, this could be cleared up in a minute. Biden could take a mental competence test and live broadcast the results. The real issue is not that Biden has mental issues. It is that you Dems were so determined to take Trump down, winning was all that mattered. The primaries were rigged to give the demented Biden the nomination and then there was the "fair" election. Biden was tossed so many softballs by the press he should keep his ball cap on non-stop. Everyone knows Biden is not running things on a day to day basis.

So, the Russian intelligence gathering apparatus said that yes, the US President is weak. Then, the propaganda folks took over and said "Hey, if the intelligence folks think that Biden is weak, it must be true and we can use this to our advantage to snooker our own folks.

There you have it. Simple. Republicans lied and the Russians believed it because they wanted to. Simple, but not for the simple-minded. But sure, try to spin it and then talk about "competence tests", a stolen election and Biden not running things on a day-to-day basis.

[QUOTE=GDreams;2672312]So yesterday the Trump apologists were advocating Russian oil to be sanctioned and today Biden is Putin's puppet for doing exactly that.

Trump was the one showing weakness, kowtowing to Putin at every opportunity, taking no action over cyber attacks, screwing over Ukraine on military aid, having Rudy cosy up to the Russian disinformation bureau in search for Hunter dirt because he was so reviled by the American people he was grasping at every straw to be reelected, and his sanctions were having no effect on Nord Stream 2 completion just like his ineffective Iran sanctions. Yep he really showed Putin how successful he was in putting his puppet in power in 2016.

So basically unless the US is prepared to go into open warfare over Ukraine there is little Biden can do apart from making it as costly as possible for the Russian people and the ruling elite. In this he has been very successful in banding together a coalition to put in place crippling restriction on Russia, something Trump would never have achieved as Iran sanctions proved. Europe better work overtime to shore up alternative energy supplies and buy lots of warm clothing for next winter.

Why do people feel compelled to make this about Trump or Biden (as if)? This is about the neoliberal world order trying to break Russia like it's been trying to break the other recalcitrant countries, the sovereign states that refuse to submit to dollar hegemony.

BTW, his use of Haley's "don't look at what Trump "tried" to do, look at what he did" argument is bullshit because Todd did list things Trump "did".

Trump "did" secretly refuse to enforce the sanctions against Russia for his chemical attack.

Trump "did" deny and delay military aid to Ukraine.

Trump didn't just "try" to do those things. He did them both until he got busted and was forced to stop helping Putin.

I saw that interview too. That was the one where Haley twice said we were "taking" money from evil dictators when we buy oil from them. Uh. Ok.

Yes, she apparently meant "giving" money to them but misspoke and totally flubbed her practiced and rehearsed talking point. Twice.

Let's see if all the Repub Senators who were perfectly happy to tell Putin he could do anything he wanted to do militarily against Ukraine and with their full blessing when they refused to convict Trump in his Impeachment for blackmailing Zelensky, delaying and denying him crutial anti Putin invasion military aid at the worst possible time will do the right thing now:

I assume some of those America-hating, pro-Putin Repub hypocrites will now have to pretend to be no different from pro-democracy Dems in this election year and grudgingly vote to help Ukraine fend off and fight Putin for a change.

That would be in stark contrast to that Repub Impeachment vote and their weak position on anti-Putin military aid to Ukraine going back to at least the week Putin / Trump ordered them to surgically remove that necessary support from their 2016 Republican Party platform.

Adjusted for inflation, the average cost of a gallon of gasoline in the USA has mostly hovered near or around $3 since the 1930's, Many times it was more than $4 per gallon. It was higher than $4 per gallon the year Obama was first elected POTUS:

To really cause some heads to explode, let's add a few more reality checks:

USA automobiles are far more fuel efficient today than ever before. They are quite a bit more fuel efficient today than they were in 2008.

Thanks, Obama-Biden.

With the Internet, we don't need to commute nearly as often or as far to do almost anything we need or want to do today. In many cases, that includes performing our job or running our business.

Thanks, Al Gore.

With millions more jobs having been created than there are applicants to take them and working Americans' wages growing demonstrably for the first time in decades in this roaring economy, Americans can afford to deal with Trump's Supply Chain Destruction Inflation and temporarily higher gas prices in order to defend democracy in the country Trump tried to blackmail into serving his desperate need to steal an election easier than ever before.

Thanks, Joe.

And now you know why the inflation hysteria that power hungry Repubs have been stoking has only served to terrify some weak-minded poll respondents but has done little or nothing to tamp down the shopping, buying, spending, recreating and, yes, driving their cars that the American people are doing with their money, continuing to expand Biden's roaring economy unabated.

Here let me help you. Trump did not want Germany buying Russian gas and neither did I. Putin did, and Biden was fine with it.

Trump did not want the USA to be a net energy importer, and neither did I. Biden did and so did Putin.

Trump wanted lower oil prices as did I. Biden drove prices higher, and Putin loved that. And I guess you and your electric bike like higher gasoline prices too. That is the thing with you Dems you claim to be for the middle class while soaking them with higher energy prices.

I want the USA producing as much energy as it can, and Trump wanted that too. Biden does not. He is off making deal with Iran and Venezuela.

Trump told Germany to buy natural gas from us. He said that it was crazy that we are spending billions defending Europe, and Europe is turning around and giving Russia billions. Putin liked that and so did Biden.

And you want to talk about some fucking poll and "values"? Again, you and your Democratic buddies are fucking losing it.

"Once again, President Biden and his Minister of Propaganda, Jen Psaki, are misleading the American people. This time about oil production.

Mr. Biden and Ms. Psaki both say it is Putin who is most responsible for the rise in gas prices. The pair also put forth that the Biden administration is harvesting more oil than the Trump crew.

The sleight of hand is a comparison between the first year of both administrations. That doesn't matter because Trump grew oil production while Biden is shrinking it.

Here are the facts. When Donald Trump left office, the average price for a gallon of gas was around $2.50. After 13 months of Biden, the price had risen more than a dollar. And that was well before Putin's Ukraine invasion.

Under Trump in 2020, the US produced 18.4 million barrels of oil a day. During Biden's first year, the number was down to 16.6. That's about 2 million barrels a day less under Biden. Close to 800 million fewer barrels a year."

And what these morons failed to understand is that oil & petro-chemicals are used throughout the entire industrial / agricultural economy, therefore when the government reduces the production of oil and thus raises the price of oil, you get inflation and believe me we have inflation. And this double digit inflation is going to be very hard to control without causing a recession. The only piece of good news is that Biden and his wokes are washed up. A massive tsunami is heading their way in November and the Dems know it. Biden: the 3rd worst President in US history.

Not sure what side you think I'm rooting for but I suspect is not the correct one. I'm rooting for freedom, opportunity and equality. The flag that'll drape my chariot on my way to six feet under will be Red, White and Blue alright but with Stars on it.

Rooting for one side or another does not mean you can't be critical. Antithesis removes blinders.

On the other hand (see what I did there?) if the muddy traveling waters get little more clear I should be in Chiang Mai next year. Haven't been to Pattaya since '96 even though I visited LOS six times since. I'm thinking of dropping by to see how things changed. If you like I'm buying a beer sans politics.[/QUOTE]By "off the pier", do you mean in Pattaya? If so, I have not gone to Pattaya enough in the past 8 years to know what is on that pier these days. I used to go there a few times per year in the early 90's and spent a weekend in Chiang Mai 3-4 years ago. Since retiring in Thailand I much prefer Bangkok.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2672588]What "goals"? Here let me help you. Trump did not want Germany buying Russian gas and neither did I. Putin did, and Biden was fine with it.

Trump did not want the USA to be a net energy importer, and neither did I. Biden did and so did Putin.

Trump wanted lower oil prices as did I. Biden drove prices higher, and Putin loved that. And I guess you and your electric bike like higher gasoline prices too. That is the thing with you Dems you claim to be for the middle class while soaking them with higher energy prices.

I want the USA producing as much energy as it can, and Trump wanted that too. Biden does not. He is off making deal with Iran and Venezuela.

Trump told Germany to buy natural gas from us. He said that it was crazy that we are spending billions defending Europe, and Europe is turning around and giving Russia billions. Putin liked that and so did Biden.

And you want to talk about some fucking poll and "values"? Again, you and your Democratic buddies are fucking losing it.[/QUOTE]What goals?

Obviously, the political goal of weakening the Western alliances and democracy wherever it exists and the economic goal of crashing the USA economy and wiping out millions of American jobs.

If those are not the goals of "conservative" Repubs, then why do they keep trying to do it and succeeding in doing it all too often?

Is it intentional or the result of regular ol' incompetence? Ultimately, it doesn't really matter.

I refuse to accuse them of being as incompetent as they would have to be in order to crash the USA economy and wipe out millions of American jobs as successfully and consistently as they have over the decades.

Therefore, I generously choose to conclude that it is intentional. Based on the Kremlin-originated talking points they recite to promote their ideas and then achieve their disastrous results, I would say it is at least as intentional as it is for their often stated preferred "leader of the free world", Vladimir Putin.

Here are some facts re: oil prices: [URL]https://news.yahoo.com/republicans-wrongly-blame-biden-rising-124650456.html[/URL].

Canada, CaliGuy, Elvis and the rest of the supporters of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy will say "fake news".

I see a couple of our resident wingers have posted one of their very few links to an opinion piece asserting poll respondents who think Putin would not have invaded Ukraine if Trump were still so-called potus must have "logically" concluded Putin was too scared of Trump to invade and destroy a budding democracy on his watch.

And that would be because, don't laugh too hard here, Trump was "strong", was so so so very pro democracy and would not hesitate to use American military might to punish Putin for it and all that.

Oh, and that Putin wasn't afraid to do so under Biden. Or, apparently, under Bush2 or under Obama. See, while Putin was president / prime minister of Russia, he invaded neighboring countries under each of those USA presidents, 3 of the 4 most recent presidents but, very mysteriously, skipped just one; Donald J. Trump.

Now, applying the most blatantly obvious logic one would apply to, say, 3 out of 4 of the condos in your complex being burgularized in the past week but the burgular mysteriously skipping one of them and that one happening to be occupied by a tenent who spent 4 years slamming and denigrating all the other condo tenents and mocking them for caring so much about not being burgularized, basic logic would dictate one ought to direct some suspicion to the singular exception to Putin's pattern rather than at any of the three who fell well within his usual pattern.

But that isn't something Repubs and their loyal electioneering benefactors in Mainstream Media can abide.

No, we're just supposed to think ultra warmongering GW Bush who plunged us into 3 wars on his watch and even lied along with his administration about "WMD" in order to plunge us into one of them was too timid about using American military might to go after Putin for invading Georgia. Not that he could have gotten the necessary Senate approval for it anyway since Georgia was neither a member of NATO nor a matter of USA National Security.

Oh, and that Obama, who Repubs spent 8 years telling us was a "warmonger" who was trying to get America into wars all around the world and who requested the necessary Senate approval to respond to Russia militarily for invading Crimea (It was Moscow Mitch who killed that idea by not even putting it up for a vote) was also too "timid" to do it as well. Again, not that he could have gotten the necessary Senate approval for it anyway since Crimea was neither a member of NATO nor a matter of USA National Security.

However, Putin's goal of reconstituting a Soviet Block by weakening the Western alliances, weakening and destroying democracies wherever he finds one and, preferrably, by doing it without shedding Russian blood or, as is the case now, revealing what a big but blundering, ill-prepared and ill-equipped armed force he has at his disposal seemed to have met its perfect match in just one of the four most recent USA presidents.

Trump's (and his Party's) utter disregard for Ukraine, his publicly stated preference and high regard for Putin, most importantly, his actual behavior and action, not just smooth words, directed toward crippling Ukraine at the worst possible time, his secretly strengthening Putin's position to attack Ukraine or anywhere else he pleases, his weakening of the Western alliances and his demonstrated contempt for democracies everywhere including right in the USA, culminating in January 6, 2021 and everything Trump and later his Party have dismissively said about it, provides an overwhelming logical conclusion for why Trump was the lone exception out of the four most recent presidents.

Putin didn't have to shed Russian blood and expose his armed forces for the big but blundering screw ups they are or crash the Russian economy on his watch as long as Trump was there as his partner to achieve all of his pro-dictatorship, anti-democracy goals anyway.

Oh, and Trump was right there to help Putin achieve his goal to crash the USA economy and wipe out millions of USA jobs along they way too. That was a nice bonus.

No way was Biden going to be there to help Putin achieve those goals at home and abroad as Trump was. That was becoming painfully obvious to Putin with every passing hour of the Biden presidency. He wasn't going to get help from the two presidents prior to Trump either.

And that's why Trump was the justifiably highly suspicious exception to Putin's pattern of invading neighboring countries out of the four most recent USA presidents. In fact, on the subject of indispensable assistance in achieving the goals of someone like Putin, Trump was the long exception among all USA presidents.

[QUOTE=AxelHeyst;2672652]"Once again, President Biden and his Minister of Propaganda, Jen Psaki, are misleading the American people. This time about oil production.

Mr. Biden and Ms. Psaki both say it is Putin who is most responsible for the rise in gas prices. The pair also put forth that the Biden administration is harvesting more oil than the Trump crew.

The sleight of hand is a comparison between the first year of both administrations. That doesn't matter because Trump grew oil production while Biden is shrinking it.

Here are the facts. When Donald Trump left office, the average price for a gallon of gas was around $2.50. After 13 months of Biden, the price had risen more than a dollar. And that was well before Putin's Ukraine invasion.

Under Trump in 2020, the US produced 18.4 million barrels of oil a day. During Biden's first year, the number was down to 16.6. That's about 2 million barrels a day less under Biden. Close to 800 million fewer barrels a year..[/QUOTE]You and every other winger on this board seems to have forgotten one thing. COVID.

So, here's a little information that I'll try to keep simple for the simple-minded. According to the macrotrends, the US produced 13,100 BPD in March 2020. Do you or any winger have any idea whatsoever about what happened in March, 2020? I realize you don't but COVID started to hit the US hard. In August of 2020, US oil production was down to 9,700 BPD. Do you have any idea why? Any idea at all? COVID. Was Donnie responsible for this drop? According to your "logic", he was responsible. Now, anybody in their right mind knew that the Orange Fruitcake wasn't responsible for the drop in production. Anybody except you wingers.

Do you have a clue about [B]why[/B] oil production dropped? Because fewer people were driving. Fewer people were using oil. That's why oil production dropped and that's why the price of oil was down to about $80 per barrel.

What happened starting in the February / March 2021 timeframe? Vaccines became available. As more people got vaccinated (well, to be fair, not too many tRUMPers did) and more restrictions were lifted, guess what? More people started using more oil? And what happened? Prices rose because demand started to outstrip supply.

As of January 2022, the US is producing about 11,500 BPD. Is 11500 more than 9,700 or less than 9,700?

You obviously have not a freaking clue as to what any of this means. Your rant is classic "post hoc ergo propter hoc" nonsense.

Nonsense but par for the course. [URL]https://news.yahoo.com/republicans-wrongly-blame-biden-rising-124650456.html[/URL].

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2672846]You and every other winger on this board seems to have forgotten one thing. COVID.

So, here's a little information that I'll try to keep simple for the simple-minded. According to the macrotrends, the US produced 13,100 BPD in March 2020. Do you or any winger have any idea whatsoever about what happened in March, 2020? I realize you don't but COVID started to hit the US hard. In August of 2020, US oil production was down to 9,700 BPD. Do you have any idea why? Any idea at all? COVID. Was Donnie responsible for this drop? According to your "logic", he was responsible. Now, anybody in their right mind knew that the Orange Fruitcake wasn't responsible for the drop in production. Anybody except you wingers.

Do you have a clue about [B]why[/B] oil production dropped? Because fewer people were driving. Fewer people were using oil. That's why oil production dropped and that's why the price of oil was down to about $80 per barrel.

What happened starting in the February / March 2021 timeframe? Vaccines became available. As more people got vaccinated (well, to be fair, not too many tRUMPers did) and more restrictions were lifted, guess what? More people started using more oil? And what happened?.[/QUOTE]

Canada, CaliGuy, Elvis and the rest of the supporters of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy will say "fake news".[/QUOTE]Those are not facts. World capacity in Q4 2019 is higher than current demand. Oil production could have been ramped up, but it was not because Biden pissed off not just American producers but other countries as well.

Obviously, PVM, you are too stupid to see that Biden gave the domestic energy companies the middle finger. I thought you libtards were sensitive to the feelings of others. Well, shit for brains, when you say climate change to oil companies, they take that as your wanting to put them out of business.

And it is not just American oil companies but foreign countries. The OPEC countries with the most surplus capacity have told Biden multiple times to go fuck himself. Things are so bad that Biden is having to go after cash strapped countries like Venezuela and Iran and trying to coax them into producing more.

You Dems have been pushing your stupid climate change agenda for decades and now it has come back and bit you in the ass. Maybe you can take solace that you are "saving the planet" while your getting your asses handed to you in the elections.

As long as some 18% of Americans elect and are represented by almost 50% of Congress, their Repub Party must be as much of an enemy of democracy as is Putin, Kim and Xi.

All of those dictators know it. That's why they enlist Repubs and only Repubs to partner up with and help them to weaken NATO, the Western Alliances and democracy wherever they find it.

Lazy vocational golfer Donald J. Trump simply decided he would be the first potus to target American democracy for total destruction along with its economy and, therefore, Putin had no reason in the world to distract him from that mission with a Russian economy destroying war in Ukraine.

Hey didn't the defund the police?

Sen. Bill Cassidy on Wednesday unveiled an energy policy proposal he equated to the Trump administration's "Operation Warp Speed" vaccine development program to address soaring energy prices.

The Louisiana Republican's proposal included streamlining the permitting process for energy development at agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency, similar to the regulatory streamlining put in place to rapidly develop the COVID-19 vaccine over 2020.

It would also incorporate a streamlined process for advanced nuclear permits and finalize a 5-year plan for future oil and natural gas development.

Cassidy also proposed to eliminate regulatory barriers for technology that reduces emissions and create a strict timeline for feedback and approval of permits and handling of complaints.

Responding to the fact that less than 10 percent of USA Oil drilling is on federal lands, Cassidy replied saying "energy is very susceptible to margins. So a little bit of extra margin drives down cost pretty quickly, and a little bit of a short margin."

"So when they say 'oh, it's just a little bit on federal lands,' that's the margin that makes the difference," he added, referring to the Biden administration.

There it is the big plan from Republicans. There are 9000 permits issued but not drilled, so if we streamline the process to increase the number of permits then suddenly oil companies will start drilling?

That's it! That's the best they can come up with. They are so busy criticizing because they have zero plans themselves. Then again what would you expect from Louisiana.

You know how the "worst since" data reports always seem to refer to a time it was worse under a Repub president?

While all the "best since" data reports seem to refer to a time when a Dem was president?

Here's another case in point:

It is the result of Dem economic stewardship and focused attention on improving conditions for Americans vs Repub dismissal if not outright contempt for doing those things well if at all.

Just to give one example among hundteds, like when Trump rejected all expert advice and dire warnings about the health and economic devastation that would occur in America and around the globe if he did something so stupid and dangerous as to defund, dismantle and remove all of our Pandemic Prevention and Response teams from those labs in China back in 2018.

And then did it anyway. "I alone can fix" blah blah blah.

The short answer is it appears the lowest Biden's Job Approval went in the consensus of polls was a tad bit higher than Trump's were during his "best" of times.

Biden's Job Approval Rating in several polls and in a consensus of polls have been trending upward since the end of last year, since Trump began opening his piehole and yammering his usual America-hating idiocy, since Biden's SOTU Address that his critics predictably slammed and, of course, as more and more of his and his fellow Dems' historic economic recovery, expansion and jobs creation data reports have been flowing in quite regularly.

[QUOTE]Former national security advisor John Bolton said "Putin saw Trump doing a lot of his work for him."

Trump considered withdrawing the US from NATO while he was president.

Bolton said it's one of the reasons that Putin did not invade Ukraine during Trump's time in office.
...
"I think one of the reasons that Putin did not move during Trump's term in office was he saw the president's hostility of NATO. It was widely reported in American media," Bolton said during an interview with SiriusXM's Julie Mason. "And to Putin's mind, it's a binary proposition: a weaker NATO is a stronger Russia."

Bolton went on, "Putin saw Trump doing a lot of his work for him, and thought, maybe in a second term, Trump would make good on his desire to get out of NATO, and then it would just ease Putin's path just that much more."

[QUOTE=Canada;2673436]Biden is doing everything possible to stall drilling and pipelines with regulations. Even democrats are seeing it. Yesterday Joe Manchin a democrat blasted the agencies.

Sen. Joe Manchin lit into the Biden appointee overseeing the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) over stalled pipeline permits Friday, demanding that he do his "damn job."

Approving permits to drill more wells and then blocking the pipeline permits to transport the oil to market basically kills the drilling permits. That is Biden way of fooling the dumb socialists and makes headlines for fake news.

There is no pipelines to several areas that are permitted so if you have permits to drill 1000 wells in an area but there are no pipelines you do not drill. You have to be able to transport it to market. USA needs more pipeline capacity and Biden is blocking them with stupid regulations.

Your post is correct to a point. There are many permits not drilled but there is a economical reason for it.[/QUOTE][URL]https://amgreatness.com/2022/03/11/oligarchs-want-us-to-power-down-so-they-can-power-up/[/URL]

We are watching greatness here. He reminds me of the senatorial biographies that were honored in JFK's "Profiles in Courage".

The senators Kennedy profiled in his book were:

"John Quincy Adams, from Massachusetts, for breaking away from the Federalist Party.

Daniel Webster, also from Massachusetts, for speaking in favor of the Compromise of 1850.

Thomas Hart Benton, from Missouri, for staying in the Democratic Party despite his opposition to the extension of slavery in the territories.

Sam Houston, from Texas, for speaking against the Kansas–Nebraska Act of 1854, which would have allowed those two states to decide on the slavery question. Houston wanted to uphold the Missouri Compromise. His and Benton's votes against Kansas–Nebraska did just that. This was his most unpopular vote, and he was defeated when running for re-election. Two years later he'd regained enough popularity to be elected Governor of Texas. However, when the state convened in special session and joined the Confederacy, Sam Houston refused to be inaugurated as governor, holding true to his ideal of preserving the Union.

Edmund G. Ross, from Kansas, for voting for acquittal in the Andrew Johnson impeachment trial. As a result of Ross's vote, along with those of six other Republicans, Democrat Johnson's presidency was saved, and the stature of the office was preserved.

Lucius Lamar, from Mississippi, for eulogizing Charles Sumner on the Senate floor and other efforts to mend ties between the North and South during Reconstruction, and for his principled opposition to the Bland–Allison Act to permit free coinage of silver. Lamar returned to Mississippi and gave rousing speeches that eventually led to public approval of his decisions and cemented a legacy of courageousness.

George Norris, from Nebraska, for opposing Joseph Gurney Cannon's autocratic power as Speaker of the House, for speaking out against arming USA Merchant ships during the United States' neutral period in World War I, and for supporting the presidential campaign of Democrat Al Smith, the first Catholic to be a major party nominee.

Robert A. Taft, from Ohio, for criticizing the Nuremberg Trials for trying Nazi war criminals under ex post facto laws. Counter-criticism against Taft's statements was vital to his failure to secure the Republican nomination for president in 1948."

Brave & honest politicians have always been a scarce commodity throughout history, but especially now since the woke Marxist party has taken over the Democratic Party and controls the media. I am sure the Antifa fanatics who post and post and post on this thread consider Senator Manchin a traitor, but in truth, he is a great American Senator.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2673437]Biden declared war on oil and gas companies day one of his presidency. The people investing in Keystone XL got hammered financially. Why would anyone want to risk drilling with a president who has been openly hostile towards them?

Did the person citing the 9000 permits say it at a climate change conference?

Even with all that is going on, you Dems are so stupid you still keep talking about climate change.

Biden is saying climate change = jobs. Fuck that. Climate change = inflation.

Oil companies are going to destroy the planet but the bioweapons plants in China (and maybe Ukraine) are fine.

The fact that you Dems keep talking climate change, even now, shows how clueless you really are.[/QUOTE]Lets discuss other issues then. Instead of following the same stupid path on a regular basis Republicans look to the future and factor in all the benefits of going all out electric vehicles.

1. The reduction in oil demand will destroy the economies of Russia and the middle east. No military presence in the middle east. Let China and India look after that. In the last 30 years $7 t dollars has been spent on the military in the middle east, enough to buy every American family a Tesla. $7 trillion also buys a lot of infrastructure.

2. Electric cars are easy to automate. The cost of car accidents to the US economy is $500 b a year. Even if this was reduced by half it represents a major saving to consumers. The automation can also be used to better manage traffic in automatically working with traffic management for route selection and speed management.

3. Provide better health outcomes buy reducing pollution in cities.

4. Provide better environmental outcomes in.

3. Environmental costs would be reduced as much less drilling, transportation and storage of hydrocarbons is required. It is estimated that the cost of decommissioning abandoned wells in the US is over $1 trillion. One of those hidden subsidies the industry gets along with the cleanup of supersites from storage facilities, leaky tanks in gas stations etc. If the oil industry had to pay for all these costs with fuel surcharges they would be screaming.

4. Improved grid management in that the vehicle batteries would provide a huge storage capacity for the grid. Cars will be able to manage their charging cycles to keep the grid functioning at maximum capacity when charging when the price is low and when peak demand hits and prices rise they can feed energy back to the grid. The car could be earning money just parked for its 17 hrs per day.

5. 60% of new electricity generation being built currently is renewable energy. That is due to its cost / ROI. But I am happy for it to go to 100% which is likely once the increased gas prices hit peoples electricity bills.

Climate will benefit but there is more than enough justification to push full stream ahead with renewable energy and electric vehicles based on the peripheral factors.

I'm happy for Biden to give DINO Joe his Virginia pipeline. They can included in the BBB legislation. Of far more importance is the electric charging station rollout that the insightful Joe Biden is pushing for so that future oil shocks will impact the recalcitrant driving their ICE cars.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2673558]So, you're blaming the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy's screw up of COVID for causing the loss of 9+ million jobs. No, of course you aren't. Even though the Orange Fruitcake completely screwed up the US response to COVID. Just like he screwed up everything else he touched.

Only 6 states have reached pre-pandemic levels. [URL]https://www.statista.com/chart/26725/payroll-recovery-covid-19-by-us-state/[/URL] Those are Utah, Idaho, Texas, Montana, Georgia and Arizona. Notice that Biden won two of those states in 2020. But, and here's the kicker, if 6 states have reached pre-pandemic employment, that means 44 have not. Guess what? The Mango Mussolini won about half of those states. Why aren't those red states responsible for getting their own employment figures up? Aren't states supposed to do all of that?

The chart came from here [URL]https://seidmaninstitute.com/job-growth/year/[/URL] But since the data is from BLS, argue it with them.

With better battery technology, alternative energy could be much more cost effective than fossil fuels, but we are not there yet.

Due to current highway safety regulation, the most inexpensive models are not imported to the United States.

But electric scooters and electric motorcycles are already displacing their gas powered brethren.

They don't need to sell new for less money because they outcompete in performance and maintenance costs already.

Electric cars too are slowly starting to arrive in the United States. It won't be long till they make up a significant part of vehicle sales.

There is a central California company selling an enclosed electric tricycle currently for around $8,000. It takes advantage of California Vehicle Code 313.5 enacted less than 10 years ago to legalize electric skateboards (motorized skateboards were made illegal in California back in the 1970's when the older boys in my neighborhood got in trouble putting 50 CC motors on the back of their skateboards. Jerry Brown decided that 30 mph skateboards with no brakes was a dangerous hazzard).

To be motorized in California without a need for a driver's license, no vehicle insurance, and no vehicle registration, you just need to build a single person vehicle no longer than 50 inches long with a top speed that does not exceed 20 mph. I expect there will be many competitors selling very cheap vehicles.

Coal, natural gas, and oil products can be stored. Solar and wind power has to go to a battery. And outside of the nuclear powered subs, so does nuclear. Ethanol and biodiesel are much more likely stopgap products but the land required to produce them as of now is huge. Biodiesel from algae sounded like it had great promise but could not be tapped consistently from what I read.

With better battery technology, alternative energy could be much more cost effective than fossil fuels, but we are not there yet.

Thing is the USA did the shale drilling, and Europe did not so they are stuck supporting Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Venezuela. Those cautioning that supporting of oppressive regimes were drowned out by those screaming we have to save the planet.

It is a good thing all those bombs Russia is dropping are carbon neutral. Cough, cough.[/QUOTE]Storage is still what is holding green energy back. There virtually is no storage because existing batteries are not yet developed to any consistency.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2673868][B]"Brave & honest politicians have always been a scarce commodity throughout history"[/B] And the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy was neither brave not honest.

I know you'll bloviate about him not being a politician. And you'd be correct because everybody in their right mind could see that he was completely out of his depth. He was usually the dumbest guy in the room (except when he was surrounded by people like you).[/QUOTE]If Trump was dumb and achieved the greatness that he did in the first couple years before Chinese virus hit where does it leave Biden. He is at least twice as dumb as Trump. He needs to be removed from office immediately. If we are going for honesty in politics the socialists should look at the corrupt Biden family. Hunter and his uncle taking millions from China and Ukraine definitely need investigating. Biden family is probably second most corrupt family in politics in USA next to the Clintons who will never be matched.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2673836]Why do keep citing the "collusion" thingy when Mueller didn't even investigate collusion?

But we couldn't."

Evidently you, as well as your fellow ignoramuses, have completely forgotten about COVID and how it negatively affected virtually every part of virtually every country on the planet. To wit, you nincompoop, inflation is a worldwide problem, not just an American one. Gasoline prices are up worldwide, not just in the USA. Food prices are up all over the world, not just in the USA.

But sure, keep your head buried in the anatomy of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy. Does it smell good in there?[/QUOTE]Yes Chinese virus affected the world. But gas prices were stable and inflation was under control under Trump presidency. It didn't start to turn until Biden first day of office and his first executive actions that killed pipelines and drilling. Then he botched Afghanistan and the world saw that he was weak and incompetent. Biden reducing domestic energy and buying from countries like Iran and Russia further showed the world that he was not only weak but plain stupid. OPEC took advantage of it and raised prices. Russia took advantage of it and invaded Ukraine. Iran took advantage of it and fired missiles at USA consulate. Biden and the USA have lost the respect of several countries and allies. Biden is to blame. Everyone told you so before the election and they were right. Even the experts did not think Biden would be this bad. You keep saying Trump was one term like it is a bad thing. Do you really think Biden that is 10 times worse that Trump could get a second term?

[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2673956]It is with your writing like this that makes me doubt you are really from California.

Earlier you wrote that my Orange County education took place in San Diego, showing your confusion with locations in the state.

And you are not seeing the transportation changes all up and down the golden coast.

Every weekend now I see dozens to hundreds of folks on electric vehicles, mostly electric bikes in beach areas.

As I like to ride around on each of my electric bikes.

Very cheap electric vehicles are being made and sold right now in China.

Due to current highway safety regulation, the most inexpensive models are not imported to the United States.

But electric scooters and electric motorcycles are already displacing their gas powered brethren.

They don't need to sell new for less money because they outcompete in performance and maintenance costs already.

Electric cars too are slowly starting to arrive in the United States. It won't be long till they make up a significant part of vehicle sales.[/QUOTE]California probably has more electric vehicles than any other state. But I don't see a dramatic change. When I go down to Newport St in Ocean Beach I see a half dozen electric cars but I see about 100 gas cars too. I would be surprised if electric cars are 5% of the cars on our highways. Most of the houses in this area are older houses. Most do not have a garage and most people park on the street if they live within8 blocks of the beach. Virtually none of the houses in the area have 220 power. So they can't use a fast charger to charge their electric car. With 110 power it takes about 12 hours to get battery charged to 80%. If you just drive to work and are gone 10 hours it may work fine for you. But most people don't even get the same parking spot every night. There are several apartment buildings and I doubt they are going to go to the expense of putting in charging stations and they would have to charge for that. If you look at the cars in our neighborhood a lot of the cars are 10-15 years old and in great condition. People don't have the money to buy electric cars at the prices they are. And in California we have planned rolling blackouts sometimes so if you don't have power you won't be able to get to work the next day. I'm our area we are fortunate and we have stable power but the electric grid in California is very old and goes down a lot. Their is no storage for any electric power for wind or solar yet so very unstable if we increase power usage even 10% let alone 100%.

As for oil companies not wanting to drill I don't believe that. Several oil companies have petitioned Biden and the White House to let them drill. They are petitioning for more drilling and more pipelines. They ask Biden why he is begging Saudi and OPEC for oil when they can solve the energy crisis in USA. And employ thousands of people in USA instead of employing thousands of people in countries that hate us. Why is Biden supporting other countries economies and not supporting the economy of USA?

Do you also know if you order a new Tesla in California it is a 6-9 month delivery? Electric cars are not the answer today. Gas cars will be for the next 5 decades. Don't punish the middle class and low income because they can't afford an electric car.

If the utility goes down, soon your electric vehicle may soon be an alternate way of delivering electric power.

New batteries supplement and add to existing capacity.

Solar and wind enjoy that same principal that new supply supplements and adds to existing capacity.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2674076]...Virtually none of the houses in the area have 220 power. ...[/QUOTE]Very very very rare -- probably none in that neighborhood. There may be a some lonely shack of a home out in the bush that has not changed ownership in 60 years that still has a 30 A entry box, but I'm certain that more than 99% of the houses, even old shacks, have at least 60 A /240 V service. That is because all the transformers on the street are all 240 V. For sure, if the house has changed ownership in the last 50 years, it has 240 V service. They may not think they have 240 V, but they do. It's somewhat likely that they don't have the current to support fast charging, but they do have the voltage.

Where you are flat out lying is about the power capacity of older residential properties.

I lived in a rental garage apartment in a single regular lot on Balboa Island that had a larger 3 bedroom home on the front half of the lot on Coral Avenue.

Both units were built in the 1940's, making it one of the older houses when I lived there during college in the 1970's and 1980's.

The clothes dryer was in the garage below my unit, and used 220. Same for the neighbors.

If 220 power had not been the norm when the house was first built, it would have been easy to upgrade the neighborhood in the 1950's or 1960's because all the electric power was delivered above ground on telephone poles. Rural areas might not get regular upgrades, but city utilities in America get upgrades.

Silly.

Tesla made 936,222 electric cars in 2021. Say the whole industry made around 2 million cars in 2021? Plausible?

With adequate demand for the industry's product, 87% future growth seems possible (especially with non-tesla cheapies).

Why would we need 30 years to get to 50% electric vehicles?

Might not understand numbers as well as he thinks he does.

At 87% growth it would not take 30 years.

At 87% growth it would not take 20 years.

At 87% growth it would not even take 10 years.

That's because it would take just five years, at 87% annual growth, to go from 2 million to approaching 30 million units.

30 million cars is actually not 50%. It's more like 100%!

In China they are up to 5%. They have less oil and they are smart enough to know that electric vehicles make them much less strategically sensitive to oil politics.

Increasing oil supply is not the optimum answer as in my lifetime I have been through 4 major cycles in oil supply / price.

Oil companies are not asking Biden anything, they have made corporate decisions not to overcommit to increased drilling. You guys repeat Biden being anti oil incessantly but you just can't present any actual facts on the matter. Biden's approval of permits is 35% higher than Trumps. There is 2 million barrels of spare pipeline capacity so it is not a limiting factor. The factors are banks and financiers lost their shirts when the oil price crashed 2 years ago and their is much more caution for lending to drill. Many investors lost their shirts with bankruptcies during the big oil crash and those that remain have been recapitalizing rather than rushing out to speculate by increasing drilling. There is a general labour shortage that none of you recognize because the labour market hasn't grown due to no immigration and a lot of early retirements. I guess Ukrainian refugees can help with the labour market as they are white and no one has a problem with that.

There are definitely supply issues preventing the ramp up of supply of electric vehicle but this is the longer term solution and should be the focus along with increased supply of renewable energy. EV batteries will benefit the grid. I won't repeat myself, scroll down and read my previous comments. The grid issues are peak demand not supply. For at least 17 hrs a day the grid runs at 60-80% capacity. Batteries are replacing peaker plants as they allow higher utilization of generating capacity throughout the day whilst covering peak demand making the grid more efficient. EV batteries can significantly add to that.

EVs need charging once or twice a week. The power cost is minimal. You don't need to plug in each day so the charging infrastructure can be incrementally added and not some huge up front cost as you make out and cars can rotate through them.

Evs will be the future. There will be legacy ICE cars but at some point they will be deemed to be unfit for road use and the fueling and supply infrastructure will be dismantled.

That is just another "Trump was not found guilty of Russian collusion"! Repub misdirection and distraction.

I blame Trump for the Covid Pandemic. It could just as well have been some other deadly virus originating from some other source. The critical factor in whether or not this one or that one develops into a Pandemic is worldwide leadership response to it. And on that count a cowardly, lying, astonishingly stupid and ignorant con man like Trump as the POTUS was made-to-order to accomplish that at the worst possible time.

But it wasn't only his disastrous response to the intel he had gotten about Covid that contributed more than anything else from any other person on the planet to developing it into the Pandemic it became. He had defunded and removed every single one of the Pandemic Prevention and Response team members from the labs and areas in China where these kind of virulent and highly infectious viruses were known to emerge in 2018, against all expert advice not to do something so dangerous and stupid.

It's not like Trump was just an innocent bystander when, darn the luck, this terrible thing happened. He knowingly paved the way and sent out engraved invitations for it to happen.

Now you and I and everyone else knows damn well that if Biden, Obama, Clinton or any other Dem had done what Trump did in 2018, FUX News Channel would remind their viewers of it with every American death due to Trump's Pandemic from the first one in early 2020 to the 900,000+ one today along with every disastrous economic ripple effect of it from the predictable millions of USA jobs wiped out to the consequent supply chain destruction inflation.

The cars and SUVs have what Tesla calls a "Boombox" function that allows drivers to play sounds while the vehicles are moving, according to data on the the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website Thursday. This violates federal safety standards that require pedestrian warning noises for electric cars, which make little noise when in motion, the agency says.

The problem will be repaired with an over-the-air software update that will disable "Boombox," in drive, reverse or neutral, the agency said.

"The Boombox functionality allows a customer to play preset or custom sounds through the PWS (pedestrian warning system) external speaker when the vehicle is parked or in motion," NHTSA says in documents posted on its website. "While Boombox and the pedestrian alert sound are mutually exclusive sounds, sounds emitted using Boombox could be construed to obscure or prevent the PWS from complying" with safety standards, the agency wrote.

In summary, it was as if NHTSA said "No No No, no megaphones for Tesla owners. ". Requiring and regulating what sounds an electric car can emit proves Canada's fear that the e-versions are far more dangerous than gas powered cars. HaHaHaHaHa.

My golf cart needs charged every day so I assume if you drive your car every day that you will need to charge it every day.

Wind and solar are not dependable sources of power yet and won't be for decades. The problem is now. It is difficult to tell the low income that we aren't going to drill more and we are going to have $5 gas for next 25 years while we develop electric cars.

Keystone was just like Nord2 just trying to bypass a different route of delivery.

Biden did not stop drilling at all. He paused the grant of new oil leases on Federal lands. He paused it for 2 months. This land would not be drilled for at least 5 years as it requires exploration, permitting, infrastructure and investment review before going into production. Since that time Biden has allowed bidding on that federal land so it is nonsense to state that this has any impact on current production. In the meantime oil production has recovered dramatically from the Trump disaster years and is forecast to rise to record levels next year even without addition of new pipelines and the imaginary forcefield of regulation you wingers keep raising. Personally I don't mind oil prices being so high if it stops people buying vehicles that are way bigger and inefficient that what is required to suit their egos. We have seen oil shocks before and people adjusted to smaller more efficient vehicles, now there is an alternative that permanently will remove oil demand.

Your golf cart does not have a 90 kW battery.

Wind and solar are dependable but have restrictions imposed by mother nature. Fortunately in the current situation there are options available to manage the grid such that renewables can be accommodated. One of the future options to manage the grid is car batteries as they can be used to smooth the demand and supply of power to the grid.

No one is stopping drilling. Its one of those free market thingys you wingers like to talk about. I am saying that the government should be incentivizing the roll out of EVs and renewable energy so that future generations will not be held to ransom by the politics of despotic oil dictators. No matter what you say oil goes through booms and busts and adds unnecessary risks to the world economic order. I would much prefer to cut military expenditure by $200 b a year and remove forces from the middle east and use that money to provide energy and vehicles that will insulate the country from future shocks. This way the poor people won't be paying any extra.

One of the future options to manage the grid is car batteries as they can be used to smooth the demand and supply of power to the grid..[/QUOTE]15 months after Biden cancelled drilling on federal lands he still has not changed it. These federal lands had already been leased and permitted. Keystone pipeline was cancelled and Biden regulations are making it virtually impossible for any new pipeline. Democrats and republicans both went to Biden last week to try to get more drilling and pipelines started. Biden refuses to budge and goes to our enemies begging for more oil. We can't increase our production without new drilling if we drill we need new pipelines to get it to refineries. Keystone would be operational now and we could be delivering 800,000 more barrels of oil a day from Canada. If he reinstated it keystone could be operating by next May.

There is no one dumb enough to think that EV's are going to reduce our oil dependence significantly for at least 10 to 30 years.

We may as well cut our military with our current president because we don't have a Commander in Chief. We have a puppet trying to sweet talk our enemies. We are a weakened country and in only 15 months have lost the respect of our allies and most of the free world. Yes Biden is liked by several countries but unfortunately these countries are all enemies of USA. We should be ramping up domestic drilling and oil production rather than being hostage to our enemies but Biden priorities are to fund our enemies economies along with funding terrorist countries.

After all, if regulations are the problem, the number of oil rigs would decline, right? Or at least stagnate.

Yet, here are figures from an industry publication (American Oil and Gas Reporter) that shows the number of oil rigs increasing from 378 when President Biden took office to 663 as of 3/11/22.

Your Moscow friends might not have noticed anything different yet. But they sure will eventually and for a very long time. Especially any of them who had a life savings or retirement funds in rubles.

Meanwhile, the USA economy and standing in the world has rarely been stronger, growing faster and with better future prospects (until a Repub slithers back into the WH to fuck up everything he touches again, of course) other than under a couple of other Dems in the past.[/QUOTE]Oil is sold in USA dollars so Putin is benefiting greatly. The Russian people are getting hurt. Not Putin or the Russian government and Russian oil companies. Dictators like Putin and Biden don't care if the poor and low income are hurt with the devaluation of currency or inflation because it does not affect them. People in Russia and people in USA are using their life savings for survival. Biden will blame Putin for Americans suffering and Putin will blame Biden for Russians suffering.

[QUOTE=GDreams;2674852]One year after announcing a halt to any new federal oil and gas leasing, Biden has outpaced Donald Trump in issuing drilling permits on public lands.

Some of these numbskull Repub excuses are hilarious. LOL. Too much, too little, too soon, too late, too many pages. All the usual.

Ah, the luxury of being a member of the Know Nothing and Do Nothing Republican Party. See, if you Do Nothing, the Nothing you Do is difficult to criticize and your typically pro Repub benefactors in Mainstream Media rarely even try.

"Our beloved Repubs who as everyone knows handle the economy better than Dems proposed nothing, did nothing, risked nothing, voted for nothing. Oh, those lovable Do Nothing Repubs! Look, they told us a year ago they would Do Nothing and they kept their promise! So honorable. Let's give them our usual Total Pass and a big hug."

LOL. I have watched typically pro Mainsteam Media excuse and defend the Do Nothing Republican Party in order to help them win elections and therefore provide MSM's much needed "Repub Disaster Strikes Again!" headlines that way for decades.

By contrast, it is blissfully easy to criticize something that gets Done. And the pro Repub MSM are only too happy and eager to do exactly that whenever the Dems earn their paychecks and Do Something to recover us from this or that Great Repub Disaster and produce historically positive results.

"It's too big, too small, too soon, too late, too fast, too slow, too many pages, too few pages, too complicated, too simple, too many things in it I don't like, too many things in it they like" blah blah blah.

I am willing to accept Biden as president. After he was declared the winner, I thought fighting the result was a waste of time. I knew the federal judges were going to be gutless as hell, and they did not disappoint. You see, unlike you Dems, I knew federal judges do not have to hear any cases they do not want to, and they did not want to hear these.

With all the crap we saw with our own eyes, obviously there was cheating. There always is. Yes, Trump had a right to be mad, and a lot of citizens did as well. I did not like BLM or the riots of 1-6 but I got why they happened and in both cases, I thought it was failure of government.

So for this dipshit to echo Dems and say Trump "lost" the election is insulting because every Republican I know has accepted the result but feels cheated. That nobody was deposed says a lot to us.

And the line about McConnell seals it. In the primaries for 2016, we had six McConnell types running, and they all lost. McConnell is a swamp creature. His article may as well has been subtitled "Let's return to the swamp".

It is funny. We cannot stand you Dems and your freedom hating censorship ways. If you are against censorship, you vote for Trump. If you want more, go vote for a McConnell type or Kamala Harris because you are sure to get it.

A great way to get more of the "civility" this dipshit is promoting is censorship.

Donald Trump has spent the last 15 months pretending that he won the 2020 presidential election because he understands that, in the modern era, a nominee who loses an election is a nominee who does not get picked to run again. The Republican Party did not go back to Gerald Ford in 1980, or to George H. W. Bush in 1996, or to Bob Dole in 2000, or to John McCain in 2012, or to Mitt Romney in 2016, and it should not go back to Donald Trump in 2024.

You guys are going to get crushed in 2022 and 2024, and you know it. You have done a great job of convincing yourselves everything with the 2020 election was on the up and up, but you have not convinced most people who voted for Trump of anything. I saw a lot of shady shit and did not see one fucking deposition on the election. Not one.

So while you dummies keep trying to convince us that there was no fraud in 2020, we will see what happens in 2022 and 2024. After the shit I saw in Georgia in 2020, I was certain the Dems would win both Senate races. You can call us stupid all you want to but the reason I am so certain you are going to get your asses kicked in 2022 and 2024 is because the shit you pulled in 2020 is not going to happen again. We'll see who is right or better yet get your excuses ready because you are going to need them.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2675599]Yeah, just because nobody alleged fraud doesn't mean it didn't happen? Really? I thought you guys had lots of proof? Where was it? 'Cause if you had it, it would have been extremely easy to allege it in a lawsuit. The simple facts are that you had no proof. The simple facts are that all of the Orange Fruitcake's bluster and all of his spawn can't put Humpty back together again.

So was there fraud in just about all 50 states? And not just around a half dozen contested states?

[QUOTE=Canada;2674328]The numbers you posted prove Trump created jobs and Biden has not yet gotten people back to work to get back to Trump record numbers.

[URL]https://us.yahoo.com/news/one-most-basic-hotel-amenities-104344685.html.[/URL] Hotel employment levels alone are 1. 8 m below pre Covid levels. Hotels have pretty much stopped doing all but the most basic room services so they can catch up on profits they lost during the pandemic. These jobs just won't return. All this occurred under Trump. Now with the latest employment numbers and taking into account the lost 1. 8 m hotel jobs Biden has matched Trump less than 18 months into his presidency following the massive Covid disruption. Well done Biden.

I saw a lot of shady shit and did not see one fucking deposition on the election. Not one..[/QUOTE]You said: [B]"you have not convinced most people who voted for Trump of anything"[/B]. Of course not. The principle involved is called "psychological rigidity".

There is more to it than the rather simplistic explanation that follows but the explanation is correct. "A fragile ego leads to attempts to distort reality. Some people have such a fragile ego, such brittle self-esteem, such a weak "psychological constitution," that admitting they made a mistake or that they were wrong is fundamentally too threatening for their egos to tolerate. Accepting they were wrong, absorbing that reality, would be so psychologically shattering, their defense mechanisms do something remarkable to avoid doing so — they literally distort their perception of reality to make it (reality) less threatening. Their defense mechanisms protect their fragile ego by changing the very facts in their mind, so they are no longer wrong or culpable. {snip} People who repeatedly exhibit this kind of behavior are, by definition, psychologically fragile. However, that assessment is often difficult for people to accept, because to the outside world, they look as if they're confidently standing their ground and not backing down, things we associate with strength. But psychological rigidity is not a sign of strength, it is an indication of weakness. These people are not choosing to stand their ground; they're compelled to do so in order to protect their fragile egos.

The problem is they got nobody. Mrs. Clinton wants to run, that is why she started raising money, but more than half the country despises her.

But I think Michelle has better things to do and would rather spend her time living the good life than get into a knock down, no holds barred brawl with Trump. I could be wrong, however. Ha Ha.

Meanwhile Biden, I mean the Wizard of Oz, is slipping in the polls, surprise surprise, as the Ukraine War wears on, inflation runs wild, real wages are declining, a recession looms, the border is wide open, and violence surges in Democrat controlled cities. Good times!

The Rasmussen Report's daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 38% of Likely USA Voters approve of President Biden's job performance. Sixty percent (60%) disapprove. The latest figures include 20% who Strongly Approve of the job Biden is doing and 50% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -30.

Nice review.

Z!!

Even Democrats allege that the 1960 election was stolen?

You just can't make this stuff up!

[URL]https://www.newsweek.com/top-five-rigged-us-presidential-elections-511765[/URL]

1960: John F. Kennedy vs. Richard Nixon.

Earl Mazo, a Washington reporter for the New York Herald Tribune, began his investigation after he said Chicago reporters were "chastising" him and other national reporters for missing the real story.

He traveled to Chicago, obtained a list of voters in the suspicious precincts, and began matching names with addresses. Mazo told The Washington Post:

There was a cemetery where the names on the tombstones were registered and voted. I remember a house. It was completely gutted. There was nobody there. But there were 56 votes for Kennedy in that house.

Mazo also found that Chicago Mayor Richard Daley's charge that other counties were doing the same thing in favor of Republicans proved to be true—but nothing on the scale of what happened in Chicago.

In Texas, Mazo found similar circumstances.

The New York Herald Tribune planned a 12-part series on the election fraud. Four of the stories had been published and were republished in newspapers across the country in mid-December.

At Richard Nixon's request, Mazo met him at the vice president's Senate office, where Nixon told him to back off, saying, "Our country cannot afford the agony of a constitutional crisis" in the midst of the Cold War.

Mazo didn't back off, and Nixon called his editors. The newspaper did not run the rest of the series. "I know I was terribly disappointed. I envisioned the Pulitzer Prize," Mazo said.

The entire matter wasn't void of accountability.

Illinois state special prosecutor Morris Wexler, named to investigate charges of election fraud in Chicago, indicted 677 election officials, but couldn't nail down convictions with state Judge John Karns.

It wasn't until 1962, when an election worker confessed to witness tampering in Chicago's 28th Ward, that three precinct workers pleaded guilty and served jail sentences.

Pulitzer-winning journalist Seymour Hersh reported hearing tapes of FBI wiretaps about potential election fraud. Hersh—whose books indicate he is a fan of neither Kennedy nor Nixon—believed Nixon was the rightful winner.

From Newsweek in 2016 now we can add 2020 to the list.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2676326] BTW, Democrats don't want one-party rule.[/QUOTE]When you call all of us stupid, you pretty much show us you do. I do not call Democrats stupid.

That tells me you are a closed minded, one party, fascist dumb ass.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2676326]Healthy debate is fine and, in fact, our Republic functions best with it. What we don't want is for the Republican party to consist of white-supremacists, neo-Nazi's, Q-Anon believers, conspiracy theorists who think that Chinese thermostats changed voting machine votes, that the deep-state is run out of the basement of a basementless pizza parlor in DC and other members of the lunatic fringe.[/QUOTE]What is the difference between Q'Anon / the basement and Russiagate? They were both baseless conspiracy theories. And how many guys went to Epstein Island? And do you believe Epstein hung himself? You have to be out of mind to think that Epstein was the only pedophilia ring.

White supremacist is a Democratic code phrase to allow blacks to be racist towards whites, and it is comical to see the racism in the movies now. I was watching Death on the Nile and not only did the black women not do it (of course not and it was predictable), they were made out to be angels. A mother in the 1930's was checking out her white fuck up of a son being in love with a black woman, and the fact that she was black in the 1930's was totally okay, no revision of history there. And one reason she was such a good woman was she "paid her taxes" and no I am not making that up. I have not watched the Black Widow yet but my son told me that my ex-wife did not like how anti-male it was and the best male character in it was actually a woman in disguise.

In the Batman, which I liked, the phrase "white supremacist" was in the movie. The main bad guy was white, and all the corrupt cops and government officials were white to boot. The blacks were all honest and squeaky clean. And the villains were all white. We have a black Captain America now so I was waiting for a black Batman but they did not go that, but they did make him very, very young. It is the old white men who are the most evil.

What we Republicans call equal treatment of the races you call White Supremacy. Asians and whites do better on the SAT than blacks, so the SAT has to be racist. Blacks do better at music and sports but that is not racist. Blacks just do better at those things. What was funny in Virginia and why Dems lost there in part was because Asians were called white supremacists which is ironic because a lot of my Asian friends have had to deal with real racism themselves.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2676326]The Orange Fruitcake will throw you in a concentration camp faster then you can say "what an idiot" after the first time you criticize him.[/QUOTE]That is ridiculous. Unlike you Dems who want to censor everything, Trump never called for censorship as president.

And Democrats are like, "What swamp are you talking about?" This fucking swamp! The swamp where people in the intelligence community and main stream media are Democrats first and Americans second.

It is funny that Dems make up the fact that Trump was a Russian puppet, say Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation, used Ukraine as their piggy bank, and are stunned why Putin acted as he did.

Hunter Biden's laptop was not because the Bidens were evil; it was because Putin was, and he planted it. Give me a fucking break. How can Putin believe anything you say after that can be in good faith? He already knows Biden and the USA intelligence community are a bunch of fucking liars.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2676116]You Democrats and the swamp did everything humanly possible to get Trump out of office and to take down a duly elected president: Ukrainegate, Russiagate, 1-6 impeachment. There was no evidence in Russiagate. Ukrainegate was a mountain made out of mole hill and kept our eye off the ball with Covid. And you all are so afraid of Trump that you tried to impeach him out of office so he could not run again.

So you and "your no evidence of fraud" can kiss my ass. You Democrats are completely disrespectful not just to Trump but Trump voters and in attacking the voters are disrespectful to Democracy itself. All Trump voters are stupid? WTF is wrong with you?

Nothing would make you Democrats happier than one party rule. Your ideal form of government is China. Why in the hell would you expect us to accept the results of 2020 after you did all you could to void 2016?

Russiagate due to Trump's AG? Stop with your fucking bullshit excuses. You got PVMonger bragging about your failed impeachments. You Dems are PROUD of trying to void the 2016 election results. You have zero presumption of innocence on our part not after how you behaved..[/QUOTE]I didn't really support Biden as a candidate. I would have preferred Bloomberg from those that had a chance, but was disappointed with the field they put up.

The reality is Trump is a criminal. If you cannot see that then you have a real issue. As for the Russia investigation it was fueled by Trumps behaviour. 10 counts of Obstruction of Justice! What was he so desperate to hide?

You have Michael Flynn who seriously proposed a military takeover of the government.

You complain about the Ukraine impeachment when Trump did something that if occurred in 1970 would have had the Republican party showing him the door like they did with Nixon. Now the Republicans are all about power and looking after donors.

You complain about fraud but never mention all the voter suppression and Gerrymandering that goes on with Republicans. How about independent redistricting and independent running of polls? I have no problem with that but would republicans win that way? The best Government is where there are slim majorities so each side needs to work with each other.

Z!

That the first electric vehicle that will sell 100 million units (If you count the predictable knockoffs from Asian countries) was introduced to the public last month at its new factory in Oregon.

I think half a million units could sell in California alone by the end of 2024.

Next year California will have more public charging stations than it has gas stations.

And this new electric vehicle won't need even one of California's (greater than 10,000) public electric charging stations.

Zelenskyy blasts Biden for stonewalling aid to Ukraine. Zelenskyy accuses Biden of making promises to Ukraine and then waiting weeks before anything gets done which allows Putin to continue his onslaught on innocent people. Biden and his incompetent White House staff create unnecessary delays allowing Putin certain victory. Europe is reacting quickly to Ukraine needs but USA is lagging behind. Probably intentionally to allow Putin victory. Three Europe leaders went to Ukraine. Biden will go to Belgium. Biden is a disgrace to the world.

The voted for Cheeto Tweeto against their own best interests. They voted for less healthcare, higher taxes etc. All so they could retain power. " Please highlight the word [B]stupid[/B] in the above quote. Go on, do it and show everybody how ignorant you really are.

War? Why would any dictator go to war with the Orange Buffoon. He was giving them all they wanted. He told Putin that he was going to pull out of NATO if he got re-elected. All Putin had to do was wait. He put tariffs on China and then lied to the American people and said that China was actually paying for the tariffs. How dumb does someone have to be to swallow that malarky?

Economy? Really? How many net jobs were lost under the Mango Mussolini's watch? Don't bring up COVID because he bungled our response to that as well. If you bring up COVID. You'd be like the kid who murdered his parents who then asks the judge for leniency because he is an orphan.

People who voted for the Mango Mussolini might have been anti-war, but many of them were white supremacists. White supremacists want war. At least war on POC. How many white supremacist votes did Biden receive? Many who voted for the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy were homophobic and transphobic. Many people who are transphobic and homophobic would just as soon lynch them as look at them. How many of those votes did Biden receive? The point of all of this is to show you that most who voted for the Orange Buffoon are just lily-livered cowards who hate everyone who isn't just like them. And the Mango Mussolini played into those fears. "Biden will destroy your neighborhood and your American Dream. " That's what he tweeted. Live and let live just isn't in the cards for you. Unless, of course, the folks you are letting live are white and straight and Republicant.

So you want Hollywood to regulate movies? You want government to do what, censor them? Or somehow tell them what lines to include? What drivel. Hollywood makes movies for audiences, as is their right. If you don't want to watch, don't watch. But sure, feel free to criticize a movie because there are too many black actors or because there are too many mixed-race marriages or too many homosexuals or too many transsexuals. You are a snowflake.

Republicants always seem to think censorship is only something Democrats do. Are Democrats banning books that discuss subjects that make white people uncomfortable? Nope, only Republicants are doing that. Are Democrats trying to pass laws that limit what a private business can discuss in terms of race? Nope, again. Only Republicants are doing that. If you post a negative comment about the Orange Buffoon on Pravda Social and get booted, it isn't censorship. But if you post a negative comment about Biden on Facebook and get booted, that's censorship. More drivel.

In fact, your entire post is drivel. Everybody on the board knows it. Well, everybody but wingers.

I notice no winger posted an excerpt of recently discovered winger favorite Bill Maher's show this time around after the question he thought was worth asking, "Why didn't Putin invade Ukraine when his boyfriend Trump was in office"? Got well and surely answered for the umpteenth time by intelligent, well-informed people;.

Because Putin didn't need to.

[QUOTE]MR. MAHER: But I know you were watching our show last week and you heard me say, Why didnt Putin invade Ukraine when his boyfriend, Trump was in office? I mean, Trump stood with him at Helsinki and defended him over our own intelligence agencies. So I was just asking the question. And maybe you do have an answer. Why not? When Trump was in office, it would seem to be the more logical place.
MR. BROOKS: No, he didnt invade because he didnt need to, because you only roll out the tanks when you think youre out of options. And Putin had a grand asymmetric strategy to dismantle NATO from within. And it was working. When the commander in chief of the United States Armed Forces calls NATO obsolete, you are on the road to a fifth column victory, and thats what he was doing. And its a matter of fact we know now in 2018 Trump wanted to pull out of NATO, and it was John Kelly and John Bolton who had to hold him down like a rabid dog to stop him from doing that. And if Trump had won a second term, he would have done it. But Biden being elected caused Putins plan to go up in smoke.[/QUOTE][QUOTE]MAHER: Whats so surprising to me about Putin? We always knew he was evil, but nobody ever called him dumb. And now he looks dumb. He looks dumb and not powerful. You know, I honestly, I was wrong. I thought he was not going to invade. I thought it was just brinksmanship. But now like, this could really go so bad for him. I mean, the Russians have had a revolution before. And when you have the morale of the army, we know is where it is, when you have the economy tanking the way it is.

During the 2020 election, the press overtly rallied around Joe Biden, discrediting the New York Post's reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop. A story that raised important questions regarding Joe Biden and his son and could have changed the outcome of the election.

He is a crook, and his self-serving GOP buttboys refused to call him out. January 6th, 2021 will live in infamy with most Americans, as will the traitors who fueled and perpetrated it. We look forward to the day that the GOP reclaims their party and the conspiracy theory chasing, unAmerican kooks are forced back out of the mainstream.

But I have no idea what lunacy you're blathering about starting at "So Biden invaded Ukraine to weaken NATO" and everything that followed.

Do you?

Now, if you meant to write "Putin" invaded Ukraine in order to weaken NATO, well, that doesn't make any sense either. See, the idea and plan hatched between Putin and Trump was to weaken NATO first and then just pick off one democracy after another around the world and replace them with authoritarian dictatorships, no muss, no fuss, a cake walk.

And Trump did his part of that plan in the USA culminating on January 6, 2021 with state level Repubs continuing the effort by rigging ballot and voting laws to make it almost impossible for anyone but America-hating Repubs to "win" every election.

The Putin / Trump plan was fucked up by the free and fair election of Joe Biden.

Yeah, we know that the Putin / Trump plan to weaken NATO and then pick off democracies around the world back-fired on those two dudes badly and that NATO and the Western Alliance of democracies are stronger than ever before. See, that's why Putin is no longer thought to be smart but now looks like the dumb loser he is.

Say it with me; Thanks, Joe.

Of course, everyone knows Trump was always dumb, a fucking moron and for his boyfriend Putin, a useful idiot and one of the biggest losers of all time. But we might as well thank Joe for making that more abundantly clear than ever too.

We let in close to one million people a year through our legal processes into the United States.

Things would be much better if we let in 3 million people in year 2023.

Say an extra 1 million people from Ukraine and an extra one million people from everywhere else.

There is close to one million people in the process already, we just need to initially steamline it to be much faster than it is now.

Similar to streamlining the vaccination process so it takes months instead of years.

Currently there are many many more job openings than there are serious, unemployed job seekers.

Did TrumpShit lose 9 million jobs, of which only 6 1/2 million jobs have come back in Biden's first year?

Where do we get the warm bodies to fill another 3 to 5 million more jobs that get created in Biden's second year?

The graves of a million TrumpCovid victims are not going to get you the warm bodies that the United States needs.

The 150,000 Haitian immigrants at the Tijuana border could join the over one million people already in process.

In 2019 there were 843,593 naturalizations granted in the United States.

In 2019 there were 707,362 green cards granted.

In 2019 there were 46,508 asylum requests granted.

We don't know the exact number of people who get into he Unite States illegally, but in 2019 there were 531,330 unauthorized immigrants removed or returned.

More than one million additional United States residents died in the United States in 2019 when prior year mortality rates are compared. That's the real death toll resulting from Covid.

Probably less than one million people survived Covid, only to be left with long Covid and are disabled as a result, but their numbers ae in the six figures.

And more one million additional baby boomers, in the post-Covid environment, chose surprisingly to take early retirement and early social security benefits.

At worst, Trump's economic decisions left the world bare ass naked against Preventing and immediately Responding to a likely regional virus endemic in China along with his cowardice and lies being the primary contribution to converting it into the Trump's Pandemic it became that produced the hundreds of thousands of American deaths, the economic devastation, the millions upon millions of job losses, the worldwide supply chain destruction, the crippling of international travel for years and the inevitable inflation during the recovery that followed.

Oh, and America was actively and on the ground at war in a foreign country for every year, every month, every week, every day, every hour, every minute and every second of the Trump so-called presidency from Noon on January 20,2017 until Noon on January 20, 2021. Even after his total and unconditional surrender to the Taliban 100% on their timeline and terms scheduled for months after he lost in a landslide against Joe Biden and would be out of office..[/QUOTE]Talking about Trump doesn't change the fact Biden is totally incompetent. Inflation is still here and gas is still $6 or higher in San Diego. Doesn't matter how many times you mention Trump name or lie about Biden fantasy successes it does not change the facts. We are living the facts of Biden failures. More families in financial trouble in America. Biden rich friends are doing ok in the stock market with it only down 6% this year but the low income families are getting destroyed.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2677474]Yeah, we know that the Putin / Trump plan to weaken NATO and then pick off democracies around the world.[/QUOTE]Ukraine is a democracy? LOL.

And how are Putin and Trump going to pick them off with a BB gun?

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2677474]And NATO and the Western Alliance of democracies are stronger than ever before.

[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2677531]We let in close to one million people a year through our legal processes into the United States.

Things would be much better if we let in 3 million people in year 2023.

Say an extra 1 million people from Ukraine and an extra one million people from everywhere else.

There is close to one million people in the process already, we just need to initially steamline it to be much faster than it is now.

Similar to streamlining the vaccination process so it takes months instead of years.

Currently there are many many more job openings than there are serious, unemployed job seekers.

Did TrumpShit lose 9 million jobs, of which only 6 1/2 million jobs have come back in Biden's first year?

Where do we get the warm bodies to fill another 3 to 5 million more jobs that get created in Biden's second year?

The graves of a million TrumpCovid victims are not going to get you the warm bodies that the United States needs..[/QUOTE]Yes let in more unskilled labor. Let more criminals and terrorists in. This may be the dumbest idea in the history of the USA. Can socialists get any dumber? Do you really think democrats can actually get all these illegals to vote democrat?

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2677474]Yep, you're right that without Trump on hand to help Putin weaken NATO and the Western Alliance in order to overthrow democracies in Ukraine and around the world without mussing himself and as Trump and his fellow Repubs tried to do with American democracy on January 6, 2021 and every day since, Biden offered Putin no option even remotely similar to the one Trump graciously and enthusiastically provided his boyfriend.

But I have no idea what lunacy you're blathering about starting at "So Biden invaded Ukraine to weaken NATO" and everything that followed.

Do you?

Now, if you meant to write "Putin" invaded Ukraine in order to weaken NATO, well, that doesn't make any sense either. See, the idea and plan hatched between Putin and Trump was to weaken NATO first and then just pick off one democracy after another around the world and replace them with authoritarian dictatorships, no muss, no fuss, a cake walk..[/QUOTE]The only thing clear about the Putin puppet Biden is that Biden is blowing Putin consistently. Biden was just kissing Putin ass last year but Putin expects Biden to blow him regularly now.

Sure enough, Biden's Job Ratings with Gallup have been steadily improving on major issues since the beginning of the year when Trump started back on the MAGA sucker fleecing campaign trail, repeating his usual America-hating blather to his devoted cult followers except for one issue: the economy and energy.

Obviously, the typically pro Repub electioneering Mainstream Media has managed to once again bamboozle people into the astonishingly obvious con that "Repubs handle the economy better than Dems" whenever they see the price of a gallon of gas plummet in the midst of still another, another and another Great Repub Crash, Recession and Massive USA Job Destruction. LOL.

[URL]https://www.pollingreport.com/biden_adm.htm[/URL]

As soon as the price of gas declines or Americans begin to realize that, adjusted for inflation, the current average cost of it is no higher than it has been umpteen times since the 1930's including during many presidencies where the president won a second term, Repubs' will see their prayers and dreams of another catastrophically horrific Trump so-called presidency with more record worst results across the board sadly dwindle.

Send the USA Department of the Treasury $8,000 and get yourself on the fast-track to immigration into the United States.

A 55 day approval process, and you are in. Limited to the first 2. 5 million that apply.

It is expected that around 20% of applicants will be denied in the first month of the process, and get their $8,000 fee refunded.

Do you think 2 million highly skilled and lightly skilled people might be interested? I think the world's best and brightest will be.

Players from a visiting team can play without being vaccinated and unvaccinated fans can watch the games but Irving cannot play. The Democratic mayor is (and I am not making this up) "following the science". We now know that when Dems "follow the science" they pay off "scientists" to give the opinions they want. The worst was the fucker Fauci literally saying "If you are opposing me, you are opposing science."

Even now with all the studies showing the enormous harm lockdowns did, the Dems here are still in favor of them. Why? "Following the science" Climate change? "Following the science."

The Democrats wanted to lock down everything, destroy the economy such that Trump would lose. Mission accomplished, but we are going to have the recession on the Dems watch now, and it is going to be 2009 all over again, and that is on them.

And this great war in Ukraine. The Dems are now bragging they got Putin to act whereas Trump appeased him. The prices of sunflower oils and seeds and wheat are going to skyrocket. And nickel is already through the roof.

So you got inflation with no end in sight, the Fed having to raise rates, Covid potentially coming back, interest rates inverted, sky high gasoline prices, and Eih bragging about how great everything is, and every piece of data I see is the economy going off a cliff.

The hard part with going short the market is timing but when you buy ETFs that short the market you do not have to be right on the time. SPXU is a triple short of the S&P 500.

Normally, these would be really risky but with this administration, it is money in the bank.

Trump worked so hard to do his part in helping Putin destroy democracies around the world, especially in America, and replace them with authoritarian dictatorships. But Biden's landslide election victory over Trump screwed up their plans to weaken NATO and the Western Alliance of democracies in order to do that the easy way.

Some would say an American so-called president actively committing Sedition and inciting a violent Insurrection to overthrow American democracy is a symptom of later stage dementia.

And not only for the so-called president himself but even more so for the supposedly American voters who support and defend him, prefer his "leadership" over, well, pretty much anyone else.

If you were terrified of gays or lesbians you would have voted for Cheeto Tweeto. If you were horrified the transsexual people were allowed to live, you would have voted for the Mango Mussolini. If you thought that it was a good thing to die in order to 'own the libs', you voted for the Orange Fruitcake. If you thought that a bunch of uneducated Mexicans were invading the US in order to take your $300 per hour job, you voted for Hair Furor. If you wanted to go back to the 1850's, you would have voted for Cheeto Tweeto. If you thought that COVID was going to disappear with the warm weather, you'd have voted for the Mango Mussolini. If you wanted no healthcare, you would have voted for the Orange Fruitcake. If you thought that "My body, my choice" was Ok to say if you didn't want to wear a mask but horrible to say if you wanted an abortion, you voted for the Orange Menace. See, there are lots of reasons for voting for the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy. And I guarantee that every single one of the people who voted for Cheeto Tweeto identified with at least one of the above.

Am I offensive to Republican voters? Outstanding!

The tip? Never leave a paper trail.

Trump was obviously the worst so-called potus of all time with the worst across the board results, one of the worst "businessmen" of all time losing historic record amounts of other people's money, those foolish enough to invest in his various cons, the worst "salesman" for America and democracy of all time in that nobody made both look worse and the dumbest fucking moron who was ever allowed to walk into the Oval Office in his total ignorance of history and contempt for the USA Constitution.

But as Head of the Trump Crime Family, he sure knew how best to dodge well deserved criminal indictment for the crimes he committed requiring tangible proof of "intent. "

Oh, it wasn't possible for him to erase the overwhelming and repeated evidence of his crimes. They happened.

But if he never allowed written notes, emails or recordings of his directives, he knew it would be very difficult to prove he "intended" to commit all those crimes. That way, other people, his lackies, would take the fall and do the time for him. Just like those suckers who lost serious money on his investment frauds cons and, of course, the American people.

I mean, c'Mon! If somebody is uneducated, the only job they're going to be able to obtain is a low-skill, low-wage job. But Republicans say that every Republican has a good, high-paying job. They don't see the illogicalness of it all but, then again, they don't see the illogicalness of most Republican talking points.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2678066]When she starts weeping like an infant over how much she has loved beer ever since she was sexually assaulting people as a teenager then I'll start worrying about the mental condition of the faction that supports and defends her appointment to the SCOTUS.

When was the last time a nominee was asked such as silly ass irrelevant question? Was she supposed to say, "A wonan has a pussy"? Then what on Earth would that have to do with transgender rights, discrimination or anything else the SCOTUS might some day rule on?

Waiting for the next Repub to accuse her of causing higher gas prices.

On the positive side, it has been suggested this appointee will rally greater support for Biden and other Dems from the critical, decisive black female demographic..[/QUOTE]Republicans politicians are doing a great job of making themselves look like the morons they are while questioning the Supreme Court nominee. Especially by focusing on child-porn sentencing. It is a well-known fact that about 2/3 of child porn sentences are below the sentencing guidelines. Even judges appointed by the great and powerful wizard of lies (the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy) and done it and done it often.

But I won't bother to provide a link to that fact because the wingers on this board will just call it "fake newZ". But, they'll just call this post "fake news" anyway because, well, they're all expurts in federal sentencing guidelines and because winger media tells them what to think.

But their other hero, Sen. Ted Cruz is the one who really takes the cake.

While grilling Jackson on critical race theory Tuesday, Sen. Ted Cruz described a children's book called "Antiracist Baby. " he turned his steely gaze to Jackson and asked the Harvard-educated veteran jurist if she believes "that babies are racist. "

Some viewers wondered why a man who looks like he rubbed honey on his face then rolled on the floor of a barbershop would pose such a question. In fact, the collective eye roll was so intense the Earth briefly tilted off its axis.

But I stood and cheered the bold senator from Texas / Cancun. He was speaking truth to power and addressing an issue few Americans have ever been willing to face: Babies are incredibly racist. I don't mean just a little racist. I'm talking full-on, fontanel-having, seething bundles of hatred and racial animus. Swaddled little monsters is what they are.

I can already hear the cries of the baby apologists.

"Oh, that's ridiculous. They're so cute!

"Not possible, they've only been alive a few months!

Let me ask you this. When is the last time you heard a baby denounce racism? Hmmm?

Never. They're silent on the issue. If babies aren't racist, and if a clearly intelligent and serious USA Senator is out there floating a possible epidemic of infant racism, don't you think babies themselves would stand up, immediately fall down and then assure everyone they don't have a racist bone in their soft and pliable bodies?

That's Crisis Management 101, folks.

No, these suckers are coming out of the womb hating everyone who doesn't look like them.

Think about it. You often find them wrapped in white sheets. (Coo Cluck Klan?) And if you introduce a white baby to a person of color and then that person leaves the room, the baby acts as though that person no longer exists. Same happens if it's a Black baby meeting a white person. Some say: "Well, that's called object permanence, or the idea that people continue to exist when you don't see or hear them. Babies don't develop that until they're around eight months old. "

To which I say: "That's called a lame attempt to use science to excuse blatant baby racism, and you should be ashamed of your adult self. "

The undeniable reality of widespread, virulent racism among recently born humans is why it was so important that Cruz took precious moments of his and our lives and devoted that time – time none of us will ever get back – to ask a brilliant and widely respected judge about a 24-page, brightly colored children's book. The existence of a book called "Antiracist Baby" suggests it's possible for a baby to not be racist. But as I've proved so eloquently here, all babies are definitely racist. So how can we allow someone on the Supreme Court if she doesn't recognize "Antiracist Baby" as insidious baby-washing propaganda?

As this confirmation hearing continues, I hope Cruz and other sharp Republican senators will continue this important line of questioning. Are babies also racist against Whos, and does the book "Horton Hears a Who!" attempt to gloss over hostile infant Who hatred? Is "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" an allegory for the supremacy of one particular race over all others?

Yes on both counts, probably.

It's high time someone in this country had the courage to call out the vile, Machiavellian babies who have transformed our day cares into playpens of hate.

Before Judge Jackson is confirmed, she must meet what I'll call "the Cruz requirement. " She must stand up, face the American people and honestly declare: "Yes! All babies are racist! Thank you for asking such an important question. Did you all arrive in the same clown car or drive separately?

You didn't care that the Mango Mussolini had more indictments in his administration that any other President. Trump — 215; Nixon — 76; Reagan — 26; Obama — 0; Carter — 1; Clinton — 2. Everybody (even Republicans) know and accept the fact that Nixon was a crook. Cheeto Tweeto had him beat 3:1. Of course you don't care.

You don't care that Putin indeed tried to help his blowjob queen win the 2016 election. Mueller outlined dozens of contacts with the Russians. Hell, Hair Furor even said the quiet part out loud in a TV interview prior to the 2020 election. He said that of course he'd accept help from the Russians. He walked it back, of course, because it made him look dumber than his supporters but he did say it. Of course, you idiots prefer Billy Barr's lie-filled interpretation. But Mueller did say (and I paraphrase) that if he could have found Trump not guilty, he would have said so but he declined to do so. Of course you don't care.

The reasons Clinton lost in 2016 are many. Putin played a part. Comey played a part. But Clinton's biggest issue was herself.

You can take your "we don't care" attitude and stick it where the sun don't shine. Assuming, of course, that you can get it past your head. We know you don't care. If you actually cared about the American people, you'd be a Democrat.

And here is more on the objective DDOJ: [URL]https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fbi-scuttles-ketanji-brown-celebration-la-field-office[/URL].

Yawn. And here you are calling Republicans stupid again.

Yes, we have a completely impartial DDOJ: [URL]https://www.justice.gov/usao-ct/pr/fbi-attorney-admits-altering-email-used-fisa-application-during-crossfire-hurricane[/URL].

[URL]https://twitter.com/chuckrossdc/status/1355212447758622723[/URL]

Let's start with what we do know about you Dems and fairness in elections. In 2016 and 2020, Dems were convinced Bernie Sanders could not win in the general elections and screwed him in the primaries. Trump was hated by the Republican powers that be but won in 2016 and 2020 because Republican primaries were fair.

In 2016, you dummies were trying to blame Putin for Trump winning when in fact it was swamp creature and Democrat James Comey who did just what the FBI is doing right now with Ketanji Brown, feigning objectivity. The FBI took a huge hit saying Hillary broke the law and then did not take her to a grand jury. That act by Comey cost Hillary and the Dems the election because she was not as far ahead in the polls as Comey thought. So here we go again, more election manipulation.

Then you have Russiagate which was completely bogus which involved the Steele dossier paid for by Hillary. You had Carter Page, a CIA asset, being investigated as a Russian agent, lying on a FISA warrant ETC.

You had Ukrainegate where Trump asked the Ukrainians to investigate Hunter because the FBI and entire mainstream media not only punted but censored the Hunter Biden story and called his laptop "Russian disinformation". The fact that all this was bullshit means nothing to you Dems. In fact, Trump having to ask the Ukrainians to investigate showed us that we have a DDOJ.

The DDOJ can interfere with the elections but the Ukrainians better not. We do not want foreigners messing with our elections unless you happen to be in California where anyone with a pulse can vote.

After all this, it begs the question, should anyone who votes Republican even be allowed to vote? I think a majority of Democrats would stupidly say no they should not be allowed to vote. Why should we be allowed to vote? We are too stupid to vote.

Because you are Dems, you think 1-6 was just about the 2020 election. You completely discount all the other shit you Dems have pulled in the four years previous. You PVM brag about the bogus impeachments in one breath and then talk about how fair 2020 was not even understanding how stupid you sound for doing it? If Trump wins in 2024, you Dems will impeach him every year just for breathing.

To a Democrat, the definition of a fair election is when a Democrat wins.

You would think the Dems and their media idiots would have some shame in this but of course, the answer is no. Here is a beaut from Matt Taibbi:

I long thought the decision by Facebook and Twitter to block the Post just before an election was a bigger deal than the actual story, which to me was mislabeled "smoking gun" evidence of major corruption because almost none of the information in those emails had been confirmed then. After reading this latest Times piece, which among other things confirms that Joe Biden (if not the Burisma official) was present at the infamous "meeting" referenced in the original Pozharsky email, I'm not sure so sure. At minimum, this looks like it will be a serious political problem for Biden in any future election, especially should events in the Ukraine war take a turn that motivates Ukrainian officials to unload on the first family.

While the bloodshed in Ukraine should and will dominate news for the foreseeable future, reporters who think it's their patriotic duty to throw dirt on the Everest of apparent horrors in the Biden laptop in the meantime are nuts. A subtext of the Hunter-Ukraine mess was always that Ukrainian officials seemed to chafe at taking orders about matters like the Shokhin business even as they feared Russian influence more, tension that's apparent in those leaked Poroshenko-Biden discussions. As evidence grows that the United States and Ukraine may be acting at cross-purposes with regard to the invasion, those tensions become crucial background.

Ryan Grim of the Intercept, David Sanger of the Times, and Niall Ferguson of Bloomberg all hinted at this issue in the last week. Sanger cited senior sources in saying the USA "seeks to help Ukraine lock Russia in a quagmire without inciting a broader conflict," while Ferguson quoted a senior Brit as saying the "No. 1 option" is for "the conflict to be extended and thereby bleed Putin. " Ferguson believes that strategy may explain "the lack of any diplomatic effort by the USA To secure a cease-fire," which Grim pointed out is one of two standing requests Volodymyr Zelensky has made to the USA While one war-stoked reporter after another has hounded Jen Psaki about the first, for weapons and / or a no-fly zone, Grim has been virtually alone in asking the White House about its diplomatic efforts and if Zelensky has been empowered by the United States to negotiate, say, the end of sanctions.

This is a crucial question effectively, the difference between knowing whether Russia is at war with just Ukraine, or with us and no one wants to go near it, because our newshounds suck so badly, they think anything that makes the administration uncomfortable is Russian disinformation. For anything beyond rote propaganda, most take the clownish stance offered by Amanpour above: "We're not going to do your work for you. " Trump has been out of office for years. Are we ever getting the press back?

On that last question, the answer is no.

As for Ukraine, it is as I said before. Putin attacked Ukraine because it was seen as a Democratic strong hold similar to California. Add in a completely dishonest media and laughably bad intelligence community and you have Putin the bear being poked.

The classic Democrat maneuver is to ask how much do you love Putin? Well, I do not love Putin nor this invasion. But you know what I also do not like? All you Democrats lying about Putin night and day and pretending it had no effect on him. I and a lot of Republicans think there may not have been an invasion if not for all your bullshit lies about Putin and Russia.

Back to Taibbi: The fact that none of them are bothering to comment on any of this shows that the line between the intelligence community and commercial media has blurred to the point of meaninglessness.

So we have the DDOJ and now the Democratic Department of Intelligence. And yet we have bird for brain Dems saying, "There is no swamp."

You have to be stupid to vote for Trump. And were we stupid to believe the Bidens were corrupt?

Not to mention Biden's historic reuniting and strengthening of global democratic alliances that Putin and Trump spent years trying to weaken and dismantle.

Why didn't Putin get all that intel out there right before the 2020 election to help his favorite puppet win a second badly needed term on behalf of Russia instead of sitting on it while his most feared adversary since Hillary Clinton took over?

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2678799]Yawn. And here you are calling Republicans stupid again.

Yes, we have a completely impartial DDOJ: [URL]https://www.justice.gov/usao-ct/pr/fbi-attorney-admits-altering-email-used-fisa-application-during-crossfire-hurricane[/URL].

[URL]https://twitter.com/chuckrossdc/status/1355212447758622723[/URL]

Let's start with what we do know about you Dems and fairness in elections. In 2016 and 2020, Dems were convinced Bernie Sanders could not win in the general elections and screwed him in the primaries. Trump was hated by the Republican powers that be but won in 2016 and 2020 because Republican primaries were fair.

In 2016, you dummies were trying to blame Putin for Trump winning when in fact it was swamp creature and Democrat James Comey who did just what the FBI is doing right now with Ketanji Brown, feigning objectivity. The FBI took a huge hit saying Hillary broke the law and then did not take her to a grand jury. That act by Comey cost Hillary and the Dems the election because she was not as far ahead in the polls as Comey thought. So here we go again, more election manipulation.

Then you have Russiagate which was completely bogus which involved the Steele dossier paid for by Hillary. You had Carter Page, a CIA asset, being investigated as a Russian agent, lying on a FISA warrant ETC.

You had Ukrainegate where Trump asked the Ukrainians to investigate Hunter because the FBI and entire mainstream media not only punted but censored the Hunter Biden story and called his laptop "Russian disinformation". The fact that all this was bullshit means nothing to you Dems. In fact, Trump having to ask the Ukrainians to investigate showed us that we have a DDOJ..[/QUOTE]Yep, there I go again, calling Republicans stupid. Why? Because they are.

As you you, you haven't told the truth in so long I doubt you even know what it is anymore.

Let's take the falsehoods above one-by-one, shall we?

First, that Sanders got screwed in 2016. He did not. Just as it's hard to remember what a popular, dominant political force Clinton appeared to be in 2014, it's hard to remember how much more marginal a figure Sanders was. Back then, it was Elizabeth Warren who was thought the champion of the American left, the scourge of the banks, the enemy of the billionaires. Sanders was a gadfly senator with no major legislation to his name who idiosyncratically refused to officially join the Democratic Party. Gallup didn't even include him in its polls. The 2016 Democratic primary wasn't rigged by the DNC, and it certainly wasn't rigged against Sanders. But Democratic elites did try to make Clinton's nomination as inevitable, as preordained, as possible. So, no, the 2016 primaries weren't rigged against Bernie.

Second, "Russiagate" as you call it. The [B]original[/B] Fusion GPS research was oppo research [B]against the Orange Buffoon[/B] paid for by Republican donor Paul Singer. By the spring of 2016, researchers at Fusion GPS had become so alarmed by what they had already learned about Trump that they felt the need to do what they could to keep Trump out of the White House. Yes, the Clinton campaign got ahold of the research. But most of the work was already done. And, as I've pointed out before, the Mueller Report documented dozens of spurious contacts between Russia and the Orange Fruitcake's campaign. Lots of Russians were indicted and several of Hair Furor's campaign people were as well. But your contention is that it is all a nothingburger is, well, a nothingburger.

Third, "Ukrainegate" as you call it. You idiots, and the Mango Mussolini, placed a lot of credence on Hunter Biden's place on Burisma's Board of Directors. Look up the BOD of any major US corporation. How many of the individuals have [B]any experience whatsoever[/B] in the business of that company. Here's P&G's board. Please tell me how many of those folks have any experience in consumer packaged goods. [URL]https://us.pg.com/structure-and-governance/board-of-directors-composition/[/URL] No Republican, least of all the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy had any idea what "quid pro quo" meant before that now-infamous phone call. You still don't know what it means.

Furthermore, does Hunter Biden hold a post as an adviser to the President? Like Ivanka did? Like Kushner did? Has he spoken at political events like Eric did? Like Donnie junior did?

Are Republicans too stupid to vote? Many of them are. How do I know that? Because they have already voted in people like MTG, Boebert, Gates, Hawley and others who, between them, don't have enough IQ points to decorate a domino.

If the Orange Fruitcake wins in 2024 and Dems impeach him, that would mean that Dems control the House, right, because that's where impeachments start. Haven't you been blathering on and on about how Republicans were going to run roughshod over the Dems and take back both the House and the Senate? Have you changed your tune and decided that Republicans aren't going to win the House in 2022 and 2024? Or have you just told so many falsehoods that you can't remember one from the other? Or are you simply clueless as to how US Government works? I suspect that it is all three.

Republican Rep. Jake Hoffman, who sponsored the bill, told the Arizona Daily Independent in February 2022 that the bill is to ensure that only USA Citizens are able to vote in USA Elections.

"Non-citizens should never be allowed to vote in American elections, yet shockingly nearly 12,000 people voted in the 2020 general election for federal office without any proof of USA Citizenship," he said.

By the way, that is not far off from Biden's margin of victory of Arizona.

If Putin really wanted to rig USA elections, he should have paid to get 12,000 Russians fake papers and get them across the border and vote in Arizona. Now with Biden as president, the Russians could just walk across. You do not even need fake papers.

Hell, they should just set up signs of where to vote at the border. The Democratic states touching the Southern border are sure to have record crossings those days.

Do you know what Democrats call this, making sure only Americans can vote? Jim Crow 2.0. Seriously. They do not respect anyone's vote.

How come we are not taking about peace in Ukraine? All the media is in on the escalation rhetoric. In the mean time, the Dems are convinced that Putin would hold off on nukes. I want to ask them, "And you know that how?

It does not matter that when previous dictators were toppled their countries were ruined.

I think the most under reported thing about the Burisma scandal is how the Ukrainian and American elites like Hunter Biden fucked the average Ukrainian citizen. They had to pay more for natural gas and electricity after the USA "loan" package. Ukraine getting nuked would be a small price to pay for the Dems holding Congress in 2022. That is how fucked the Democratic mindset is right now. Seriously.

Iran which is financially backed by Biden attacked oil facilities in Saudi yesterday. Amazing that CNN and MSNBC don't report Biden financing Putin and Iran.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2679181][URL]https://www.zerohedge.com/political/arizona-legislature-passes-bill-requiring-proof-us-citizenship-vote[/URL]

Republican Rep. Jake Hoffman, who sponsored the bill, told the Arizona Daily Independent in February 2022 that the bill is to ensure that only USA Citizens are able to vote in USA Elections.

"Non-citizens should never be allowed to vote in American elections, yet shockingly nearly 12,000 people voted in the 2020 general election for federal office without any proof of USA Citizenship," he said.

By the way, that is not far off from Biden's margin of victory of Arizona.

If Putin really wanted to rig USA elections, he should have paid to get 12,000 Russians fake papers and get them across the border and vote in Arizona. Now with Biden as president, the Russians could just walk across. You do not even need fake papers.

Hell, they should just set up signs of where to vote at the border.

Only likely impeachment will be of Biden in 2022.[/QUOTE]Yeah, it was a banner week for these clowns. We are seriously living out the stupidity in the movie "Do not look up." The Dems think ousting Putin is how they win in 2022 and 2024. They think Americans care about that when in truth they do not give a shit.

This from Glenn Greenwald: The central question for Americans from the start of the war in Ukraine was what role, if any, should the USA Government play in that war? A necessarily related question: if the USA Is going to involve itself in this war, what objectives should drive that involvement?

Prior to the USA 's jumping directly into this war, those questions were never meaningfully considered. Instead, the emotions deliberately stoked by the relentless media attention to the horrors of this war horrors which, contrary to the West's media propaganda, are common to all wars, including its own left little to no space for public discussion of those questions. The only acceptable modes of expression in USA Discourse were to pronounce that the Russian invasion was unjustified, and, using parlance which the 2011 version of Chris Hayes correctly dismissed as adolescent, that Putin is a "bad guy." Those denunciation rituals, no matter how cathartic and applause-inducing, supplied no useful information about what actions the USA Should or should not take when it came to this increasingly dangerous conflict.

That was the purpose of so severely restricting discourse to those simple moral claims: to allow policymakers in Washington free rein to do whatever they wanted in the name of stopping Putin without being questioned. Indeed, as so often happens when war breaks out, anyone questioning USA Political leaders instantly had their patriotism and loyalty impugned (unless one was complaining that the USA Should become more involved in the conflict than it already was, a form of pro-war "dissent" that is always permissible in American discourse).

With these discourse rules firmly implanted, those who attempted to invoke former President Obama's own arguments about a conflict between Russia and Ukraine namely, that "Ukraine is a core Russian interest but not an American one" and therefore the USA Should not risk confrontation with Moscow over it were widely maligned as Kremlin assets if not agents. Others who urged the USA To try to avert war through diplomacy by, for instance, formally vowing that NATO membership would not be offered to Ukraine and that Kyiv would remain neutral in the new Cold War pursued by the West with Moscow faced the same set of accusations about their loyalty and patriotism.

As a result of the media's embracing of moral righteousness in lieu of debating these crucial geopolitical questions, the USA Government has consistently and aggressively escalated its participation in this war with barely any questioning let alone opposition. USA Officials are boastfully leading the effort to collapse the Russian economy. Along with its NATO allies, the USA Has flooded Ukraine with billions of dollars of sophisticated weaponry, with at least some of those arms ending up in the hands of actual neo-Nazi battalions integrated into the Ukrainian government and military. It is providing surveillance technology in the form of drones and its own intelligence to enable Ukrainian targeting of Russian forces. President Biden threatened Russia with a response "in kind" if Russia were to use chemical weapons. Meanwhile, reports The New York Times, "see. I. A. Officers are helping to ensure that crates of weapons are delivered into the hands of vetted Ukrainian military units."

The USA Is, by definition, waging a proxy war against Russia, using Ukrainians as their instrument, with the goal of not ending the war but prolonging it. So obvious is this fact about USA Objectives that even The New York Times last Sunday explicitly reported that the the Biden administration "seeks to help Ukraine lock Russia in a quagmire" (albeit with care not to escalate into a nuclear exchange). Indeed, even "some American officials assert that as a matter of international law, the provision of weaponry and intelligence to the Ukrainian Army has made the United States a cobelligerent," though this is "an argument that some legal experts dispute. " Surveying all this evidence as well as discussions with his own USA And British sources, Niall Ferguson, writing in Bloomberg, proclaimed: "I conclude that the USA Intends to keep this war going. " UK officials similarly told him that "the U. K. 's No. 1 option is for the conflict to be extended and thereby bleed Putin."

That there are few if any risks graver or more reckless than a direct USA / Russia military confrontation should be too obvious to require explanation. Yet that seems to have been completely forgotten in the zeal, arousal, purpose and excitement which war always triggers.

The grave dangers of the world's two largest nuclear-armed powers acting on opposite sides of a hot war extend far beyond any intention by the USA To deliberately engage Russia directly. Such a war, even with the USA Waging it "only" through its proxies, severely escalates tensions, distrust, hostilities, and a climate of paranoia. That is particularly true given that ever since Democrats decided to blame Putin for Hillary's 2016 loss at least half of Americans have been feeding on a non-stop, toxic diet of anti-Russian hatred under the guise of "Russiagate. " As recently as 2018, 2/3 of Democrats believed that Russia hacked into voting machines and altered the 2016 vote count to help Trump win. This cultivation of extreme anti-Russian animus in Washington has been made even more dangerous by the virtual prohibition on dialogue with Russian officials, which during Russiagate was deemed inherently suspect if not criminal.

And all of those preexisting dangers are, in turn, severely exacerbated by an American president who so often is too age-addled to speak clearly or predictably. That condition is inherently dangerous, made all the more so by the fact that it leaves him vulnerable to manipulation by the Democratic Party's national security advisers who will never forget 2016 and seem more intent than ever on finally attaining vengeance against Putin, no matter the risks. Speaking to USA Troops in Poland on Friday, a visibly exhausted and rambling President Biden after extensive travel, time-zone hopping, protracted meetings and speeches appeared to tell USA Troops that they were on their way to see first-hand the resistance of Ukrainians, meaning they were headed into Ukraine:

Whatever else is true, the USA And Russia are now in waters uncharted since the Cuban missile crisis. Even the savage US / USSR proxy wars of the 1980's in Latin America and Afghanistan did not entail these sorts of rapidly escalating threats. A Russian president who, validly or not, feels threatened by NATO expansion in the region and driven by questions of his legacy, on the other side of a USA President with a long record of hawkishness and war fever which is now hobbled by the carelessness and infirmities of old age, is a remarkably volatile combination. As former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis put it on Saturday: "A USA President who, during an atrocious war, does not mean what he says on matters of War and Peace, and must be corrected by his hyperventilating staff, is a clear and present danger to all."

Hovering above all of these grave dangers is the question of why? What interests does the USA Have in Ukraine that are sufficiently vital or substantial to justify trifling with risks of this magnitude? Why did the USA Not do more to try to diplomatically avert this horrific war, instead seemingly opting for the opposite: namely, discouraging Ukrainian President Zelensky from pursuing such talks on the alleged grounds of futility and rewarding Russian aggression, and not even exploring whether a vow of non-NATO-membership for Ukraine would suffice? How does growing USA Involvement in this war benefit the people of the United States, particularly as they were already before this war weighed down by the dual burdens of pandemic-based economic depravations and rapidly escalating inflation?

These are precisely the questions that a healthy nation discusses and examines before jumping head-first into a major war. But these were precisely the questions declared to be unpatriotic, proof of one's status as a traitor or pro-Russia propagandist, as the hallmark of being pro-Putin. These are the standard tactics used to squash dissent or questioning when war breaks out. That neocons, who perfected these smear tactics, are back in the saddle as discourse and policy leaders due to their six-year project of ingratiating themselves back into American liberalism with performative anti-Trump agitprop makes it inevitable that such sleazy attacks will prevail.

As a result, the USA Now finds itself more deeply enmeshed than ever in the most dangerous war it has fought in years if not decades. It may be too late for those questions to be meaningfully examined. But given the stakes, this is as clear a case of better late than never as one will ever encounter.

Glenn Greenwald was spiked from the intercept, a news organization he founded, because he would not capitulate on the Hunter Biden laptop story, a story we now all know was true.

As for why the "madman" Putin attacked Ukraine, we have heard that he was mad about Ukraine joining NATO, mad about Russians being tortured in the predominantly Russian provinces in Ukraine, and now maybe because he was mad about the fact that biolabs were being built in Ukraine that could produce biological weapons. And who facilitated this ludicrous notion? Hunter fucking Biden.

Emails from Hunter Biden's notorious laptop reveal that the first son helped secure millions of dollars for a DoD contractor. Metabiota. Which specializes in researching pandemic-causing diseases that could be used as bioweapons, according to the Daily Mail, which obtained Hunter's emails.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2679480]We are talking about Biden incompetence and gaffs. Admit it. He is incompetent. It doesn't matter if someone else in history previously made a gaff. Biden does it every times he talks. White House has to do damage control every time he talks. Trying to deflect Biden incompetence by changing the subject just shows your lack of intelligence.[/QUOTE]What shows "lack of intelligence" is your constant yapping that Biden is incompetent while failing to acknowledge the thousands of gaffes and the 30,000 false-or-misleading-statements by the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy.

When you acknowledge that you are ignorant because you ignore the Orange Buffoons incompetence, then we can have a discussion.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2679481]Or spell check. But still happy that you agree with me about democrats being lazy.[/QUOTE]Every third grader everywhere is taught to proofread. I guess you didn't pass the third grade, did you, because you use the "I'm too lazy to proofread so I'll use the 'it is spellcheck's fault' excuse".

The only thing that I agree with you on is that you are too lazy to proofread. Oh, and you're ignorant, too.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2679397]Obviously you were not paying attention in his speeches because the Whit House has had to clean up his last three from his incompetent answers. They are scrambling with damage control after every time he talks to explain what he meant to say and not what he said. White House knows he is incompetent. Why don't you?[/QUOTE]You've got nothing. Everyone knew you didn't have even one link to substantiate the nonsense you spouted.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2679608]Only racists on this site are democrats. You proved it with your posts. I have never heard a Republican make the kind of racist comments you made. And are you forgetting they Republicans ended the slavery years ago. Not democrats.[/QUOTE]If Republicans would only learn the history they want to ban, you'd know that back in Lincoln's day, the Republican Party was [B]liberal[/B].

But, due to the fact that most Republican states want to ban the teaching of history, the demon spawn of most Republicans will never know that fact. You obviously don't. Smh.
