Another low IQ dead dem from the Chinese virus.[/QUOTE]He tried to make up for stupidly going along with GW Bush's scam to become a "wartime president" as a means to improve his chances of winning a 2nd term so he could produce even worse results than he produced during his first term by endorsing Barack Obama for POTUS.
That was the right thing to do, of course, and it certainly turned out great for America. But this bit where Repubs suddenly see the light and try to make amends too little too late AFTER they are out of office for producing their typical Repub crap results DURING their time in office is bullshit.
Now karma strikes as Trump's classic Repub incompetence, corruption, cowardice and lies, all of GW Bush's usual Repub attributes but on steroids and this time in perfect sync with Xi, killed him. Yes, RIP.
[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2615547]Thanks for confirming that California has been run by socialists. I guess that is why the democrats in California are upset with the current government. My property taxes are $12,000. Much more expensive than most of the other states adjoining California. There is nothing cheap about living in California.[/QUOTE]Of course.

[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2615647]Fuck.
Read the memo.[/QUOTE]Your major was undoubtedly something like gender studies via interpretative critical race dance theory, if you even went to college (or got your GED) so let me explain.
There is no way to store the huge amounts of electricity required to power a first world country. It's not like food. You can't have 12 hours of great supply and store the excess. Therefore the energy supply needs to be stable and steady 24/7, or have what is called inertia.
The problem with this green hippy enviro-wacko shit is that it is not stable. Sometimes the wind blows, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes the sun shines, sometimes it doesn't. These huge fluctuations can fuck up the entire system and cause it to entirely shut down, which is exactly what happened in Great Britain in August 2019 when half the country went into blackout.
To avoid that, there needs to be a stable power supply (fossil fuel or nuclear) running at all times, in case the hippy shit collapses. So all those solar panels and windmills (all of which cost huge amounts of wealth, energy and pollution to produce, and do not last very long) are basically just for show, as there always needs to be serious power generation behind them.
[QUOTE=JohnClayton;2615649]There seems to be fairly good, objective statistical evidence that the slowdown has been engineered by the ILWU as a political / economic play. There is a closely watched statistic (called something like "berth productivity') which is a measure of the cost of moving one container TEU from a ship out of the port. Port of Long Beach does not rate highly compared to other ports (e.g. , Qingdao, Yokohama, Singapore). Most evidence points to the crane workers who want to limit the number of new cranes that can be installed, as well as the number of cranes that can work at any time. There is also consideralble anecdotal evidence that they are deliberately gumming up the process (loading trucks out of order, slow loading, etc), which I guess is mostly to make more money or maintain power. The ILWU crane operators are already the most highly paid in the world and the port management lives in fear of them. In short, I think it's not the trucks, rather the cranes.[/QUOTE]Correct! Crane operators make up to $250,000 a year and work 5-6 hours a day (they really like their lunches). This is a simple matter of a powerful, greedy, corrupt union flexing its muscles during the national emergency. It's time something was done about it.

Title: Increases in COVID-19 are unrelated to levels of vaccination across 68 countries and 2947 counties in the United States.
"At the country-level, there appears to be no discernable relationship between percentage of population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases in the last 7 days (Fig. 1). In fact, the trend line suggests a marginally positive association such that countries with higher percentage of population fully vaccinated have higher COVID-19 cases per 1 million people. Notably, Israel with over 60% of their population fully vaccinated had the highest COVID-19 cases per 1 million people in the last 7 days. The lack of a meaningful association between percentage population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases is further exemplified, for instance, by comparison of Iceland and Portugal. Both countries have over 75% of their population fully vaccinated and have more COVID-19 cases per 1 million people than countries such as Vietnam and South Africa that have around 10% of their population fully vaccinated."

I could not believe they could even think of something like that. I told the person that the democrats don't care about the 1st because they want to censor and ban everything, they also don't care about the 2nd obviously.
Some of these Democrats I argue with on Quora also think the Democrats are not trying to Ban guns, I mean how could they even think that.
I always call them out on so many things and never get any responses.
The best is the ones where they claim Trump lies all the time, I ask many of them to tell me some of these lies that Trump has made because I'm just not hearing them. The best answer from someone was he lied to people about that covid was not highly contagious to not cause a panic. OK, but geez, Trump did that purposely for a reason and that is the best they can tell me when they claim Trump lies all the time.
The other thing I have argued with so many people is that Trump told raffensperger to make up votes for him. They claim Trump saying "go find me XXX amount of votes means Trump committed a crime. To me it was obvious Trump was talking about finding illegal ballots. Even if Trump said to go find him ballots that is not even illegal. Even pressuring him is not illegal as Trump can pressure someone to go find fraud.
You have to understand that Democrats are Democrats because they lack any rational thinking. They clearly can't think rationally or they would be a democrat. Unless of course they specifically want democrat policies to turn USA into a communist country and like to see all of USA culture destroyed and replaced with 3rd worlders. They don't say this though, they think the Democrats are actually helping the country somehow. To me its clear as day that the democrats are changing the demographics of the USA into a country filled with mostly 3rd world people and this country will turn more third world.
The IQ level will dumb down, crime will rise, violence will increase and especially towards women, scientific achievements will decline, shortages will result, everyone will be poorer. This is what happens when you replace the demographics with dependent 3rd worlders, you turn the country into the country they left.

LOL.[/QUOTE]Wouldn't you expect there to be a greater spread of any virus after more people are vaccinated and therefore drop or relax their previous mitigation efforts, open businesses and schools, begin to meet in crowded conditions again and so on? I would.
But that isn't what these vaccines were expected to prevent since the more virulent variants emerged. They are expected to prevent death or serious illness requiring hospitalization after being exposed to and acquiring the virus.
And they are accomplishing that latter goal quite effectively. Oh, except among the unvaccinated who are also dropping or relaxing the mitigation efforts as much or more than the vaccinated with, well, the predictable results.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson admitted to omitting Colin Powell's health complications after using his death to rail against the effectiveness of coronavirus vaccines. On Monday, Carlson led his show with the news from Powell's family that he died of Covid complications at the age of 84. Carlson honed in on the fact that the former secretary of state died despite being fully vaccinated against Covid, saying "that fact does not make his death any less sad nor is it unusual. Many thousands of vaccinated Americans have died of Covid. "
I wonder if this Fux "News" clown realizes that the former guy's Operation Dork Speed developed useless vaccines. The former guy to his cabinet: "Let's develop vaccines so rapidly that they're useless. My supporters are so dumb that they won't notice."

[QUOTE=Edward5;2616299]I was arguing with this democrat on Quora who had the nerve to say that Republicans don't uphold the constitution but the Democrats do. I could not believe they could even think of something like that. I told the person that the democrats don't care about the 1st because they want to censor and ban everything, they also don't care about the 2nd obviously.
Some of these Democrats I argue with on Quora also think the Democrats are not trying to Ban guns, I mean how could they even think that.
I always call them out on so many things and never get any responses.
The best is the ones where they claim Trump lies all the time, I ask many of them to tell me some of these lies that Trump has made because I'm just not hearing them. The best answer from someone was he lied to people about that covid was not highly contagious to not cause a panic. OK, but geez, Trump did that purposely for a reason and that is the best they can tell me when they claim Trump lies all the time.
The other thing I have argued with so many people is that Trump told raffensperger to make up votes for him. They claim Trump saying "go find me XXX amount of votes means Trump committed a crime. To me it was obvious Trump was talking about finding illegal ballots. Even if Trump said to go find him ballots that is not even illegal. Even pressuring him is not illegal as Trump can pressure someone to go find fraud.[/QUOTE]Excellent post, the last two paragraphs in particular.
We are mostly well-travelled gentlemen on these boards, and we have experienced first hand how the third world works, or rather doesn't. The economic dislocation, the lack of basic services, the corruption, the poverty, the general lack of initiative.
As you correctly say, a society is a function of the human capital within it. It is no coincidence that cities in Haiti are very similar to cities in sub-Saharan Africa because they are populated by people of a similar background and low average IQ.
If we allow ourselves to be demographically overrun. As is deliberately happening right now, with Biden's handlers throwing open the border and preventing ICE from doing its job. We will end up with a similar society.
Of course, the elites, people like Nancy Pelosi, Jeff Bezos, Zuckerberg etc, are happy about this. In every third world country there is a tiny, powerful, super-wealthy group at the top. But there is no middle class, who can challenge and hold that group accountable. All that exists below them is a mass of serfs, too stupid, broke and downtrodden to do anything about the situation.
That is the situation the democrat / corporate / Big Tech / fake media lobby want. Rigged "mail-in" elections and totally fake news along with chickenfeed welfare handouts for the third world serfs, to keep them in power forever. And if the low IQ masses ever get a little unruly, they can tell them white people are to blame, let the mob murder a few (as in southern Africa) and the anger will subside.
Americans need to fight like hell against this outcome while we still can.

It does not produce a magical, invisible, protective bubble around you to prevent a virus from entering your body via the nose, mouth, eyes, ears, urethra, ass or open wound. It also does not "wipe out" all the virus particles circulating in the air and moving from person to person.
No, it works on the premise that the virus WILL someday enter your body via whatever orifice that particular virus prefers (at which point you WILL possibly test positive for it, btw) but that WHEN it does your body will have by then built up an effective immune response to it strong enough to prevent it from overwhelming your bodily functions, making you very, very sick, requiring hospitalization, taking up beds and staff attention that ordinary non virus-related injuries and sicknesses for which there are NO effective vaccines may require or dying from it.
Ya' see, that is why more positive COVID-19 test cases would naturally be expected in the population after more people are vaccinated and are no longer being as careful about wearing masks, social distancing and so on since, lo' and behold, their getting vaccinated has made it so their chances of getting very sick, requiring hospitalization and/or dying WHEN the virus enters their body is very small, even if they are in their 60's, 70's, 80's etc. Unless they have an immunity response weakening condition like Multiple Myeloma as Colin Powell had.
Hey, guess what, the measles virus, chicken pox virus and other viruses still exist! And we are all still exposed to them! Whoever told you they don't exist anymore because they were "wiped out" by vaccines is the one who sold you a bill of goods. However, since I have been vaccinated against measles, chicken pox and so on, I won't get sick, break out in bumps or shingles or experience any other signs of illness WHEN I am exposed to those viruses.
Sorry, there is no magical, invisible, protective bubble around my body keeping those viruses away from me and preventing me from getting sick from them. The vaccines I took as a kid caused my body to accomplish that fantastic response.

It may offer some limited protection from the worst effects for a couple of months, but even that wears off quickly. As opposed to the measles, or yellow fever, or any other actual vaccine, where you take it once and you're fully protected for life.
Seriously, take a step back and look objectively at what you just said: [B]"Wouldn't you expect there to be a greater spread of any virus after more people are vaccinated"[/B].
If there were a greater spread of measles after the measles vaccine was introduced, or a greater spread of yellow fever after the yellow fever virus was introduced, or a great spread of smallpox after the smallpox vaccine was introduced, doncha think someone might just have, um, said something?
But of course those vaccines were developed in the days in which we lived in reality.
Nowadays a man can put on a wig and he's "a woman"; Hunter Biden can take kickbacks from China and Ukraine with "10% for the big guy" and nothing happens; pallots of hundreds of thousands of ballots 98% for Biden can show up in democrat cities at 4 am on election night when he's way behind; Ilhan Omar can marry her brother in an immigration scam and she's a stunning, brave hero.
So it's no surprise that in modern day Emperor's New Clothes clownworld, the fake media and its brainwashed acolytes pretend that a "vaccine" (actually untested gene therapy) "works" when it actually causes a greater spread of the virus it's supposed to be stopping.

But this is a deeper issue than Trump, Biden or any other individual.
This entire covid scam is part of a movement by a tiny but very powerful group of people to reduce the living standards and freedom of the average American to those of the average peasant in some third world shithole.
Millions of small business owners and middle class workers have already had their business, jobs and lives destroyed by the state. While they are pushed into poverty, the business goes to Amazon or big chain restaurants. Now we are seeing millions more under threat of firing because they refuse to be forcibly injected with untested gene therapy that they neither want nor need.
Even if the "vaccine" worked (which it doesn't) it is still a question of free choice. Are homosexual sodomites refused HIV treatment or employment because they voluntarily engaged in unsafe behaviour? Are smokers refused treatment for lung and heart disease because they chose to smoke? Of course not, and it would be illegal for anyone to attempt to do so.
So while the wealth and income of regular middle class Americans is being stripped away and given to the elites, and attempts are being made to disarm us in violation of 2 A, the unnecessary vaccine that doesn't work is being used as an excuse to get everyone onto a control grid.
They want us all on "vaccine passports", whereby they can monitor and control our every movement. Not that we will be able to move much, as most middle class Americans will have lost their jobs, and working class Americans will be undercut by Mexican illegals, so we won't have the funds to go anywhere.
All of this fits in perfectly with the so-called "climate change" scam, whereby it will become harder and harder to fly internationally. For "climate change" and "covid" reasons officially. In reality because they don't want the serfs leaving their land, as was the case 1000 years ago.
For mongers on an international sex tourism board, that should be of primary concern. Forget Trump, Biden, ballots, whatever else. These people want to sentence us to life in sexprison USA, where women hold all the cards and can have you imprisoned for "are-a-p-e" if, ten years after having sex, she decides she didn't like you. They did that to Harvey Weinstein who was defended by the best lawyers in the country; you better believe they can do it you.
I'm reaching out to those across the political divide here. If this democrat-covid-fakenews-climate hoax stuff keeps going much longer, our hobby will be over. That at least should make you all pause.

This entire covid scam is part of a movement by a tiny but very powerful group of people to reduce the living standards and freedom of the average American to those of the average peasant in some third world shithole.
Millions of small business owners and middle class workers have already had their business, jobs and lives destroyed by the state. While they are pushed into poverty, the business goes to Amazon or big chain restaurants. Now we are seeing millions more under threat of firing because they refuse to be forcibly injected with untested gene therapy that they neither want nor need.
Even if the "vaccine" worked (which it doesn't) it is still a question of free choice. Are homosexual sodomites refused HIV treatment or employment because they voluntarily engaged in unsafe behaviour? Are smokers refused treatment for lung and heart disease because they chose to smoke? Of course not, and it would be illegal for anyone to attempt to do so.
So while the wealth and income of regular middle class Americans is being stripped away and given to the elites, and attempts are being made to disarm us in violation of 2 A, the unnecessary vaccine that doesn't work is being used as an excuse to get everyone onto a control grid.
They want us all on "vaccine passports", whereby they can monitor and control our every movement. Not that we will be able to move much, as most middle class Americans will have lost their jobs, and working class Americans will be undercut by Mexican illegals, so we won't have the funds to go anywhere..[/QUOTE]Here it is, folks!

[QUOTE=ChrisP;2617253]Yes, I do. You see, once you've had the measles virus, or the rubella virus, you don't get measles or rubella. See how that works?
None of the acreage of turgid wordsludge you just typed can alter the fact that as I have already shown, the so-called "covid vaccine" doesn't do that.
It may offer some limited protection from the worst effects for a couple of months, but even that wears off quickly. As opposed to the measles, or yellow fever, or any other actual vaccine, where you take it once and you're fully protected for life.

[B]Measles Cases and Outbreaks:
CDC updates this page weekly[/B]
[URL]https://www.cdc.gov/measles/cases-outbreaks.html[/URL]
[QUOTE]Measles cases in 2019
From January 1 to December 31, 2019, 1,282* individual cases of measles were confirmed in 31 states.
This is the greatest number of cases reported in the U.S. since 1992. [b]The majority of cases were among people who were not vaccinated against measles.[/b] Measles is more likely to spread and cause outbreaks in U.S. communities where groups of people are unvaccinated.[/QUOTE]You see the word "[B]majority[/B]", right there? That means "the greater number" (but not "all").
[B]Chickenpox (Varicella) Vaccination[/B]
[URL]https://www.cdc.gov/chickenpox/vaccination.html[/URL]
[QUOTE]Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV). It can cause an itchy, blister-like rash.
Two doses of the chickenpox vaccine is more than 90% effective at preventing chickenpox. When you get vaccinated, you protect yourself and others in your family and community. This protection is especially important for people who cannot get vaccinated, such as those with a weakened immune system (bodys lowered ability to fight germs and sickness), or pregnant women.
[b]Some people who are vaccinated against chickenpox may still get the disease. However, the symptoms are usually milder with fewer or no blisters (they may have just red spots) and mild or no fever. The risk of getting chickenpox after two doses of chickenpox vaccine is lower than after only one dose of chickenpox vaccine.[/b] Talk with your healthcare provider if you have questions about chickenpox vaccine.[/QUOTE]
By golly, we can truthfully say the exact same things about the Trump's Pandemic COVID-19 vaccines that Biden has made easily available for free to every American over the past 9 months, can't we?
[QUOTE=ChrisP;2617253]Seriously, take a step back and look objectively at what you just said: [B]"Wouldn't you expect there to be a greater spread of any virus after more people are vaccinated"[/B].
If there were a greater spread of measles after the measles vaccine was introduced, or a greater spread of yellow fever after the yellow fever virus was introduced, or a great spread of smallpox after the smallpox vaccine was introduced, doncha think someone might just have, um, said something?
But of course those vaccines were developed in the days in which we lived in reality.
Nowadays a man can put on a wig and he's "a woman"; Hunter Biden can take kickbacks from China and Ukraine with "10% for the big guy" and nothing happens; pallots of hundreds of thousands of ballots 98% for Biden can show up in democrat cities at 4 am on election night when he's way behind; Ilhan Omar can marry her brother in an immigration scam and she's a stunning, brave hero.
So it's no surprise that in modern day Emperor's New Clothes clownworld, the fake media and its brainwashed acolytes pretend that a "vaccine" (actually untested gene therapy) "works" when it actually causes a greater spread of the virus it's supposed to be stopping.[/QUOTE]Regarding the earlier measles, chicken pox, etc. vaccines and cases, you're talking about a time pre-Rush Limbaugh, pre-FUX News, pre-Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson, pre-Newsmax, pre-Sarah Palin, pre-Donald Trump and so on.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2617319]Thanks for playing a completely different game.
By the way, how many measles deaths per year occurred in the USA before the vaccine? I'll bet you don't know, do you?
Less than 600 every year out of 3-4 million cases every year. [URL]https://www.cdc.gov/measles/about/history.html[/URL].
But I digress. Were those measles deaths "of measles" or "with measles"?[/QUOTE]A similar number to the number of covid deaths with no comorbidities below the age of 70.
To return to the point, measles has been all but eradicated by the measles vaccine. How many people die or get seriously sick of measles these days? Virtually zero. That is a successful vaccine.
If the number of measles cases and deaths rose after the measles vaccine had become widespread, as has happened after the covid "vaccine", the measles vaccine would not have been considered successful.
Unfortunately, because we live in leftist globohomo clownworld, the fake media and its acolytes such as the dem douches on this board claim that the greater spread of the virus after the vaccine rollout is proof that the vaccine works.

The variants are being accounted for in booster shots, that soon will be widely available to all over 40 in the states, not sure of the timeline in Europe. But you are spreading false information by omission, as is typical from the fake right wingnut media.
As to all those under retirement age turning out fine, that's another lie as per CDC records posted here on many occasions. Though lower in numbers there have been large numbers of deaths of those under 65, especially among those who play machismo at home and wait way too long to seek help. Regeneron is a powerful weapon but it must be started early. Plus there is "long Covid" that effects all ages, so more falsehoods.
As to your mongering, no one really cares about that in this context. There is pussy for sale everywhere, probably within your own city. May cost you little more, so buy a little less or work a little harder, or go to Colombia.
As to Thailand and the Philippines, the former, unlike Colombia which is doing great, has had a very slow vaccine rollout. The Philippines is at around 50%, like us in the states. That isn't good enough.
As to leftists and mongering, such criticisms are ironic coming from family values, "heritage" pro-life God and country conservatives. Lolol It's uncanny how many of these cheat on their wives and dump and run barebacking hookers. This as you openly mock people of color while going to their countries to buy sex from them. Nonethess many left leaning Americans like me believe these choices are up to the women. In the countries I go to, Costa Rica and Colombia, at least 95% of the young women are surviving well enough outside prostitution, thus those who go into the industry typically do so by choice, a choice they should have if they are of age.

I go back 100 years for 2 important reasons; one is going back more than 100 years is not necessary in order to prove a DEFINITE pattern in modern economics between the 2 Parties.
And, two, it was only about 100 years ago that the Federal Reserve was established, up, running and DOING what it has been doing ever since. To compare economic results for any time before that was happening vs after it was happening is apples to oranges.
Considering WWI and the flu pandemic was preventing the newly established Federal Reserve from figuring out what it was doing and how to do it, going back even that far would be dumb.
Maybe that is why focusing on that era and returning to it over and over again appeals to you.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2618755]The 2 "recessions" under Truman and Carter were tiny and insignificant compared to any of the Great Recessions and Serial Recessions under Repubs. Truman's didn't even raise the Unemployment Rate and Carter's was purposely induced by the Fed in order to tackle and tame hyper inflation, which it did. Neither lasted more than 2-3 quarters. In fact, Carter's was over by the middle of the 2nd quarter of negative GDP growth.
...[/QUOTE]Correction; I meant to write the Truman 1948 Recession didn't raise the unemployment rate [i]above 7.9% for a single month[/i], same as Carter's. In both cases it spiked up to that rate for a single month and began to decline immediately afterwards.
That was the interesting similarity between those 2 brief economic downsturns. Which, of course, is nothing compared to the Hoover, Nixon/Ford, Reagan, Bush2 and Trump Recessions that drove the Unemployment Rate to near 9% or 10% and way above that (Hoover, Reagan and Trump) for several months each.
It is very likely that the only reason Bush2's Great Repub Recession didn't log in several months of 10%+ Unemployment Rates like Hoover's, Reagan's and Trump's did instead of just one month at 10% was because Obama-Biden took office soon after it started rather than McCain-Palin.
This is the sort of scum we are dealing with within the "Stop the Steal" movement. It's not a wonder why the vast majority of the domestic terrorism in the US comes from the far right, as has been confirmed by DHS and confirmed here with links time and again. These are gullible, unintelligent people that lack the ability to fact check and think critically.

Why build a fence to keep people out of Biden vacation home but not a fence to have a secure border. 80% of Americans know that the southern border is not secure. There are still some fools that think otherwise.
Every democrat state is defunding police. California and Minnesota don't prosecute shoplifters. Chicago doesn't prosecute gun violence. Democrats have no problem with letting criminals run free.

I go back 100 years for 2 important reasons; one is going back more than 100 years is not necessary in order to prove a DEFINITE pattern in modern economics between the 2 Parties.
And, two, it was only about 100 years ago that the Federal Reserve was established, up, running and DOING what it has been doing ever since. To compare economic results for any time before that was happening vs after it was happening is apples to oranges.
Considering WWI and the flu pandemic was preventing the newly established Federal Reserve from figuring out what it was doing and how to do it, going back even that far would be dumb.
Maybe that is why focusing on that era and returning to it over and over again appeals to you..[/QUOTE]Keep blaming the past presidents and keep ignoring the Biden failures.

Here are some of the ways to determine if a regime is fascist.
1. Opposition to Marxism (Notice how many Republicans call Democrats either "socialists" or "communists".
2. Opposition to parliamentary democracy (Notice how Trump Republicans try to silence anybody who speaks out against them).
3. Opposition to political and cultural liberalism (Duh).
4. Totalitarian ambitions (Duh).
5. Conservative economic programs (Republican tax cuts benefit the wealthy and business).
6. Corporatism ("Trickle-down" economics, anybody?
7. Alleged equality of social status (Republicans pay lip service to equality but try to pass laws curtailing voting rights, etc.)
8. Imperialism (OK, this one doesn't belong).
9. Military values (Trump loves military parades).
10. Volksgemeinschaft (a racially unified and hierarchically organized body in which the interests of individuals would be strictly subordinate to those of the nation. I. e. Don't think for yourself, let Trump or Fux "News", think for you.).
11. Mass mobilization (like rallies).
12. Single leader with absolute power (Gee, ya think?
13. The "new man" (The new man would be physically strong and morally "hard," admiring what was forceful and vigorous and despising everything "weak" and "soft."
14. Glorification of youth (OK, maybe this doesn't belong either).
15. Education as character building (Let's not teach history because we'd rather whitewash it and teach history as we want it to be).
16. Decadence and spirituality (Notice how many Republicans are against everything except God and guns. And abortions. And LGBTQ. And POC.)
17. Violence (Does January 6th ring a bell? Charlottesville? "Get them out of here" at Trump rallies?
18. Extreme nationalism (MAGA and America First).
19. Scapegoating (Blame immigrants and POC and BLM and, frankly, anything other than racism, homophobia, xenophobia and misogyny).
20. Populism (Unlike left-wing populism, this populism doesn't attribute workers' hardships to big business and big landowners and doesn't advocate measures such as progressive taxation, higher pay for industrial and farm workers, protection of unions, and the right to strike. In general it spares the wealth of the upper classes).
21. Revolutionary image (This doesn't belong either).
22. Antiurbanism (Shithole cities, etc.).
23. Sexism and misogyny (Duh, Texas' abortion law?
24. Acceptance of racism (Duh).
25. Identification with Christianity (Duh).
That's 25 characteristics of FASCISM, 22 of which describe the current Republican party. 22 out of 25 is 88% . A solid b+.

Since "it all depends on where you get your news," nobody hold your breath waiting for Beans5 to produce news report links asserting that in the past century Great Recessions didn't begin on the watch of (R)Hoover, (R)Reagan, (R)Bush2 and (R)Trump, that three more Recessions didn't happen on (R)Eisenhower's watch, another one didn't begin on (R)Ford's watch, another one didn't begin on (R)Bush1's watch, still another one on (R)Bush2's watch and so on while the Recession that began under (D)Truman and the one under (D)Carter weren't among the briefest and least damaging Recessions of all.
And THAT is why totally unsupported False Equivalency and Bothsiderism must be called out for the "stealth" pro-Repub bullshit it is whenever possible.

This idea of blaming Trump for a worldwide (supposed) pandemic, which was started in China, and when the USA is 6% of the world's landmass and 4% of its population, is objectively idiotic. I'm just saying this to help you out. Watching you keep saying that is like having a boxing match with a guy who keep punching himself in the face. It's no fun for anyone.
It is not Trump who is pushing this Great Reset. Far from it: it's people like Klaus Schwab, Soros and other globalists.
We are already seeing them try to pivot the covid lockdowns that the leftists have enforced into permanent "climate change" lockdowns.
The globalist left don't want regular middle class western people to be wealthy and able to take regular foreign holidays. They want us an impoverished serf class, as is the model in most countries in the world.
The reason we can go to the third world and bang hot young babes is because everyone in those countries is dirt-poor outside a tiny wealthy elite. There is no middle class.
Newsflash: that is what our elites want for us. They want to be in the same position as the royal families of places like Thailand, and the "Men of Always" in Colombia: owning everything, permanently in control, and never held to account because the entire population are serfs scrabbling round 24/7 trying to have enough to eat.
Hence the endless restrictions, shutting down of businesses, making it harder and harder to travel under the fake justification of "global warming" (that always cracks me up: look on youtube and there is a documentary from 1977 narrated by Leonard Nimoy about how an ice age is on the way. These clowns can't keep their story straight).

[QUOTE=ChrisP;2619277]Complete non-sequitur, which didn't answer any of my points.
This idea of blaming Trump for a worldwide (supposed) pandemic, which was started in China, and when the USA is 6% of the world's landmass and 4% of its population, is objectively idiotic. I'm just saying this to help you out. Watching you keep saying that is like having a boxing match with a guy who keep punching himself in the face. It's no fun for anyone.
It is not Trump who is pushing this Great Reset. Far from it: it's people like Klaus Schwab, Soros and other globalists.
We are already seeing them try to pivot the covid lockdowns that the leftists have enforced into permanent "climate change" lockdowns.

Look, everybody knows that you think the former guy is the second coming.
But you mentioned that the US has 6% of the world's landmass and 4% of its population. Given that, shouldn't the US have about 4% of the world's deaths, too? But they have 15% of the world's deaths. How do you explain that? You can't but you'll give plenty of BS reasons.

But since March 20, 2020, that fundamental right has been largely suspended. Since that date, both migrants seeking a better life in the United States and those seeking to apply for asylum have been turned away and expelled back to Mexico or their home countries. These border expulsions are carried out under a little-known provision of U.S. health law, section 265 of Title 42, which the former Trump administration invoked to achieve its long-desired goal of shutting the border. The Biden administration has continued using this provision, and over 1.2 million expulsions have been carried out since the pandemic began, even though ports of entry remain open with nearly 11 million people crossing the southern border every month and thousands flying into the United States every day.[/QUOTE]Now Now stop acting like you REALLY don't know WTF is going on.

As to leftists and mongering, such criticisms are ironic coming from family values, "heritage" pro-life God and country conservatives. Lolol It's uncanny how many of these cheat on their wives and dump and run barebacking hookers. This as you openly mock people of color while going to their countries to buy sex from them. Nonethess many left leaning Americans like me believe these choices are up to the women. In the countries I go to, Costa Rica and Colombia, at least 95% of the young women are surviving well enough outside prostitution, thus those who go into the industry typically do so by choice, a choice they should have if they are of age.[/QUOTE]A lot of gobbledygook in the first section. Belarus is one of many countries which never locked down and didn't have mass vaccination and guess what, their society hasn't collapsed! (That's even despite a failed CIA campaign to overthrow their leader and install a globohomo puppet).
China has been completely normal for over a year. If it wasn't for hysterical media, nobody would even know this so-called "pandemic" was happening. In normal times a ton of people die every day, particularly the elderly, obese and with other comorbidities.
Tens of thousands die every year from flu (except for last year, when flu deaths were mysteriously almost zero. Hmm, riddle me that batman).
The whole thing is a massive hoax. Nobody was paying attention to the global warming hoax, so they created another one which they are now trying to transition from "covid" to "climate change" into a permanent lockdown / enserfment / destruction of constitutional liberties.
As to the second part, rugged, rightwing adventurers have been travelling the globe and banging its choicest babes for hundreds of years. It is the thumb-sucking leftist soyboys who prefer to stay home and simp for some fat 40 year old feminist in the hope she will throw them a mercyfuck.
Does it not concern you in the slightest that the true leaders of your party, the far-left Marxist "Squad" of AOC, Brother-Marrier Omar, the crazy Palestinian terrorist, and the two angry black women (one with hair and one without, that's the only way I can tell them apart) literally want to imprison you for the crime of patriarchally oppressing the brown bodies of women of color?

[/QUOTE]Again, a non-sequitur. You go from claiming Trump was responsible "for the entire worldwide pandemic" to focusing on numbers in the US. Well which is it? Is Donald Trump responsible for the death of some guy in the Philippines or South Africa who contracted a disease which originated and came direct from China?
LOL, no doubt you will come up with some deranged fake news anti-logic for why he is, which will keep us all entertained.
As to US numbers, in reality they are much less than 15% of the worldwide total.
This is because in the third world, there are very few organized testing or reporting systems. When some serf or peasant in the sticks drops dead, people just shrug, bury / cremate them, and move on.
In the US, there is huge political pressure from Washington globohomo deep state to ramp up the covid numbers as high as possible in order to maintain the hysteria and implement their new world order of serfdom for formerly-free Americans. So they classify every single death with covid as of covid, including notoriously a guy who died in an auto accident.
By contrast, in the third world, in some rural village or shithole slum, a bunch of penniless people die of covid and nobody reports or even notices. So their reported numbers are lower than in reality.
Finally, the two major indicators of covid health problems are obesity and old age. This is universally accepted fact, so no doubt you will deny it in your customary deranged manner. America as a nation is significantly older and fatter than most of the world. Therefore it is to be expected that US numbers would be higher.
When all of the above is factored in, America's rates are little different from anywhere else.

And guess what. Biden's handlers have now banned ICE from chasing them when they fail to show up, meaning that nobody is enforcing immigration law and they get to stay forever, get welfare, undercut Americans, and vote illegally. Which is exactly what the democrats want.

I know it is outrageous to even suggest deadbeat Repubs in Congress actually DO SOMETHING and WORK for a living. Brian Williams and most Mainsteam Media pundits wouldn't dare suggest such a thing.
Apparently, as long as all the deadbeat do-nothing Repubs in Congress start every congressional session by announcing "We're not going to work for our pay this year," they are politely absolved of any responsibility or blame for the failure of bills that are proposed, put on the table for debate and require a majority vote in the House and a 50+1 vote in the Senate to pass.
And Mainstream Media will be right there to make sure "There is nobody to blame but the Democrats" when bills are not passed thanks to zero participation by deadbeat Repubs in either or both Houses of Congress.
So they get a full pass and total absolution from you as well as Brian Williams for that, huh? Interesting. How nice for them.
Btw, both of those Infrastructure bills will create a ton of jobs well into the future, will dramatically improve the quality of life for all Americans and will return more on the investment than they cost. It isn't like either one of them is all huge cost with no meaningful upside. They are bills proposed and submitted by Dems, not Repubs.
In fact, for all the Repubs claiming to be hand-wringing worried about inflation, that 2nd one in particular is anti inflationary.

I remember when Mainstream Media spent 8 years slamming Obama's successful negotiation of a historic Great Dem Recovery from the "Once in 100 Years!" collection of disasters he inherited from Bush2 for only asking for enough to get the job done tremendously fast and then settling for less but still enough to get the job done a bit slower. "He should ask for twice as much and negotiate down from there! Feckless loser!"
Now Mainsteam Media is slamming Biden for playing it exactly that way after inheriting another collection of "Once in 100 Years!" disasters from Trump. "He will only get HALF of the record amount he asked for and is settling for a lower record amount! Feckless loser!" Gotta' admire their consistency.
And it won't stop Repubs from claiming some responsibility for providing all the things their constituents back home will love about it, as they usually do after the Dems shoulder all the heavy lifting and assume all the political risk to get great things done for the country.
Combined with flipping control of the House, the Senate and the Presidency from Repubs to Dems during just one presidential term under Trump, the first time any Party has done that as far as I know, this will be another historic Dem victory on behalf of and to the great benefit of the American people.
Or, as Brian Williams and virtually every other supposedly "pro lib/Dem" Mainstream Media pundit will put it from now on, "A crushing, humiliating defeat and tragically lost opportunity for feckless Joe Biden and his fellow congressional Democratic Party losers and a huge, brilliantly conceived and executed win for those lovably irrepressible congressional Republican Party winners!

Yeah, if 1-2 of the 5 who DID contribute something to getting the job done turn out to be a drag on the process I'll blame them too.
But I sure as hell won't just shrug off the original 5 total deadbeats and ONLY blame the 5 who did all the work simply because the 5 total deadbeats made their grand admission they intend to be deadbeats on day one the way Mainstream Media insists I ought to react and respond to deadbeat Repubs vs working Dems;
"Well, they told me on day one they'll take my money but aren't going to do any work for it, so I guess that's that, can't blame them for whatever goes wrong, I'll just blame and punish the other 5 for it."
uh..no.
Anyone even remotely suggesting I ought to react and respond that way would almost certainly be very much aligned with and in support of those 5 deadbeats and not the 5 workers.
I'm not talking about the one bill where the Dems included a sliver of projects Repub deadbeats were ok to approve because they always approve them when they are put on the table for a vote (deadbeat Repub Moscow Mitch never put them up for a vote when he was Senate majority leader under Trump, but worker Dem Schumer did under Biden). If they don't vote for those things when given the chance their constituents fire them from their cushy job so there is little praise to be handed out for that.
That's like praising the 5 deadbeat contractors in my analogy for using my toilet to take a shit while they're collecting pay for doing nothing rather than unloading in their own lunch bucket.

Those servants / serfs are their model for the American middle and working class. The elites can fly anywhere, guzzle as much meat or carbon as they want, but by god you will live in a pod, eat bugs and never travel. And be thankful / guilty for your "white privilege."

For example, I hear 95% of the people who moved to Texas since the previous census were Mexican-Americans who fled California because they were priced out of its housing market. Yet, somehow, miraculously, the 2 new Texas districts gerrymandered into existance this year are 99.99% white Repub districts without one new predominantly Mexican-American or likely Dem district in sight. LOL.
There is really no way for Repubs to "win" elections in America so they can continue to Crash the economy, wipe out millions of jobs, defund the police, defund the military and so on anymore unless they go to extraordinary measures to rig those elections.
Which is the ONLY thing Repubs have been working on while Biden, Pelosi, Schumer and the Dems have been busy successfully recovering us from the recent historic Trump/Repub disasters on all fronts.

For most Americans, the fake media spell has been broken. If elections were conducted with integrity as in all other democracies, and only Americans voted, the result would be a Reaganesque GOP landslide.
Unfortunately, our enemies are aware of this, which is why we now have neither of those things.
Elections are a rigged scam, with hundreds of millions of ballots spammed out wherever, Republican observers kicked out and windows boarded up in democrat shithole city counting centers, counts halted when democrats are losing and then hundreds of thousands of ballots miraculously materializing at 4 am in those same democrat shithole cities, 98% for the democrat candidate.
And the deliberate swarming of our border by third world illegals, facilitated by Biden's handlers, means that many more of them will vote illegally for more welfare. It's not like we have in-person voting or ID verification to stop them, is it?
Remember, the third world illegals swarming the border are the dregs of their own countries. Most people even in the third world are able to live a satisfactory life. The only ones who will trek dangerously and illegally across cartel-run deserts are those too stupid and useless to make a life for themselves back home, where there is no welfare, and so they need to get to America to suckle on the taxpayer teat.
We are literally getting the 75-IQ dregs from third world shithole countries: the worst human capital on the planet. A permanent democrat-voting welfare underclass.

When redistricting happens, a bunch of politicians of the Minority party go to the state legislature and ask them to keep their districts safe. The Majority party is usually more than happy to makes them an 80/20 district, making it possible to draw 2 flippable districts. I remember looking a while back and Dan Crenshaw has one of the most fucked up looking districts in the country. I think the worst are still in Chicago and Wisconsin.
Independent redistricting commissions and some of the geometric models and such are the best way of keeping the house competitive and returning a sane Government, but that's never going to happen. California has independent redistricting, and something like 10 of their 50 seats are considered battleground districts. Like 8 of them have flipped back and forth between the last 2 congressional elections. You'd never, ever get a scenario where Republicans would implement a system like that in Florida, Texas or Georgia.

Note that the dems tried to rig the election like last year: there were, ahem, "delays" in the count from heavily democrat Fairfax County, and some ballots had to be, ahem, "rescanned". Fortunately the republican wave was so overwhelming that they were unable to steal it this time.
New Jersey also looks good for the GOP but closer, so I expect the democrat machine in shitholes like Newark will be able to rustle up enough pallets of mail-in ballots, 98% for the democrat, to get Murphy over the line (a guy who said that the Constitution was "above his pay grade".

"Huge result for Glenn Youngkin"?
McCauliffe tried valiantly and came damn close to accomplishing something no one has ever done; win a second term for Governor of Virginia as a candidate of the same Party he ran under in his first term. Only 1 person has ever won a second term for Governor of Virginia. And that was a guy who won as a Democrat in 1965 before the Dems passed all those Civil Rights laws then won again in the 1970's as a Republican (not hard to figure out why doing that helped him in 1970s Virginia).
Furthermore, Virginia makes a habit of electing a Governor from the Party that is NOT currently in the White House. I'm not sure if or when there was an exception to that pattern.
So there are two big reasons it was practically a given that a Repub, any Repub, was going to win that election against a Dem this time around and especially a Dem who already served 1 term as Governor of Virginia.
Of course, that didn't stop the typically pro-Repub Mainstream Media, that must always portray their beloved Repubs as "winners" and Dems as "losers", from characterizing an election race that was practically chiseled in stone to go to the Repub as a "defining election for Biden and the Dems."
It cracked me up when perennial pro-Repub False Equivalence and Bothsider host of Meet The Press, Chuck Todd, opened his show on the Virginia gubernatorial election day with some horseshit like, "This will be the most important, telling election for Biden and the Dems since Biden won the presidency!", obviously hoping no one in his audience remembers the truly HUGE recall election in California that happened just a few months ago that carried vastly more important national implications than this Virginia governors race and which "Biden and the Dems" won in a landslide.
So typical.

Murphy wins in Jersey.[/QUOTE]Exactly. There never was any CRT or organized Dem push to defund the police in Virginia or anywhere else.
The outcome in Virginia perfectly fits the way a Virginia gubernatorial election outcome has been since the beginning of the country and the way all but 1-2 post-presidential elections (including midterms) have gone since the end of WWII. Now, the Dem Murphy win did break a usual trend.
Youngkin's particular advantage was the typically pro-Repub Mainstream Media was able to promote lies about the Dems and convince suckers to get riled up to vote against boogie-men that don't exist in a more traditional manner without much interference from Trump, who Youngkin avoided like the plague (but with a wink, as you pointed out)
That is why I disapproved of Trump being banned from Twitter and Facebook. Dems have a much better chance and track record of overcoming the typical pro-Repub campaining and electioneering by Mainstream Media when Trump has a huge platform on which to to tweet tweet tweet his idiotic assertions, addle-brained proposals and America-hating lies far and wide forcing Repubs and Repub candidates everywhere to respond, comment, agree or disagree on a daily if not hourly basis.
I liken the muzzling and banning of Trump on those platforms to still another example of widespread media sources helping Repubs win elections.

So Twitter banned Trump and he started up his own media company. I am sure the numbers have changed some, but 50% of an $8. 2 billon valuation is worth more than $4.1 billion. See the link: [URL]https://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/2021/10/23/trump-billions-meme-stock-spac/119075800/[/URL].

LMAO.[/QUOTE]That's exactly what happened. Fairfax, the biggest and heavily democrat county, did not release its results at the scheduled time due to, ahem, "delays" and the need to, ahem, "rescan" some "faulty" ballots. Sounds familiar.
Fortunately the overwhelming majority for Youngkin made it too difficult for them to steal. Unfortunately, the democrat machine in Jersey, one of the most corrupt places in the country, were able to rig the result there and get the hapless apparatchik Murphy. Who said that the Constitution was "above his pay grade" - back into office.
People need to realize that as great as the Youngkin win was, the democrats / media / Washington deep state remain in control of the country and (via fake and corrupt mail-in voting, no ID verification, and refusal of DoJ to properly investigate and enforce laws) can still rig any election they want.
They are walking the tightrope of attempting to make sure the dems stay in charge while making the cheating subtle enough that normal patriotic Americans believe that they still have a fair shot at getting our country back via the voting booth (protip: we don't). If they had engineered a fraud at the scale it would have taken to defeat Youngkin (as they did last year to install Biden), millions more patriotic Americans would have seen through the system. So they threw us a bone.
It's likely that, given the mood of the nation and the utterly inept, corrupt, worthless, humiliating shambles of Biden-Harris and their handlers, they will be forced to allow the GOP to retake the House and possibly the Senate next year. But believe you me, there is no way the deep state Washington globalists / media / Wall St / democrat machine will allow Trump to win in 2024.
They are making preparations already: all of the millions of illegals that Biden's handlers have been inviting across the open border and then flying to swing states will be voting, probably multiple times each, all of which will be harvested by democrat operatives. The democrat city counting centers will be primed once again to board up the windows, throw out the GOP observers, then at 4 am discover exactly the number of votes, 98% for Harris, that she needs to win.
The fraud will be too obvious. Harris is absolutely detestable, hated even within her own party: she makes Hillary Clinton look like Mary Tyler Moore. The country will be in an even worse state in 2024 than it is now, with 3 more years of wacko climate communism, vaccine mandates, crushing of small business, trillions in welfare debt, and overseas military decline. The idea of Harris defeating Trump will be so ludicrous than when she "wins", 80 million Republicans. Including the core of the military. Will think "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."
That's when things will get interesting.

Like when the Loudon County school superintendent claimed that he knew nothing about the tranny who are a p e the two girls in school bathrooms (the second at a different school after he was moved to try and cover up the first). This goes against the leftist globohomo pro-tranny agenda, so the democrat authorities and fake media tried to cover it up.
Or when they claimed that Virginia schools were not teaching critical race theory (aka anti-white hate) when they admitted they were doing so on their own website. LOL.
Or of course that the non-violent trespass of some unarmed patriots into the Capitol when the police held the doors open for them and stood aside was the same as 3000 dead on 9/11.
Fortunately we still have decent real investigative news sources such as Tucker Carlson, Newsmax, Revolver. News, Breitbart and others, so it was brought to light. That is why the left are attempting to censor and deplatform them all: trying to get Tucker fired, trying to force cable providers to pull Newsmax, trying to get Fakebook and ISP providers to pull opposition news sites.
They rarely attempt to debate because they know their agenda is unpopular and they are full of shit. Instead they try to censor real news and create an echo chamber of one-sided fake news which is so ubiquitous it gaslights people into believing it. Push back wherever you can.

By contrast, the Job Disapproval poll ratings for Trump were hitting on all cylinders at anywhere from 54% to 57% or 59% at or around the November 2020 election. It was higher than that in several polls, into the 60s, before and after election day. Which were much higher than any Disapproval rating Biden has gotten in the dozens of polls calculated on RealClearPolitics. It's difficult to know what the "consensus" was on election day for Trump's Job Disapproval but the consensus for it when he left office was 56.1% Disapprove.

750,000+ Americans have been mass murdered by Donald J. Trump's corruption, incompetence, cowardice and lies about the Pandemic he played a major role in creating and the vaccines for it that he tried for almost a year right up to just weeks before the November 2020 election to convince the world nobody should bother inventing or risk taking.

But they came damn close to winning that one too, within, oh 40,000 votes or so and a shift of about 1.6 percentage points of the vote.
Yet, during all that time none of the Trumpster Repubs remotely "began to get it" about their own party results and candidates.
And now, just 9 months into the new Dem presidency, after already passing other historic positive pro-American economic legislation and more than a month before Trump and the Repubs had at this point passed a Repub partyline waste of +$2.5 Trillion economic "stimulus" bill, their only significant legislation over 4 horrible years, that produced FEWER jobs than before it and did not add 1 more percentage point to Real GDP growth in the following years, the Dem congressional leadership has passed a truly historic bi-partisan Infrastructure Bill that Trump and his larger Repub congressional seat leadership could not negotiate among themselves and accomplish for 4 solid years, despite conman Trump's repeated assurance that one was on the way any minute now, in two weeks, blah, blah, blah.
It will be a great day for America and all Americans when Dem President Brandon signs that bill for final passage.
I know the Dems are a complete failure, incompetent, in total disarray, can't get out of their own way, total losers, are the only ones to blame when America doesn't get everything it wants and needs and so on while the Repubs are smart, clever, perfectly disciplined, well accomplished winners, can't possibly be blamed for any of America's disappointments and, oh have I mentioned "better at handling the economy than Dems," because Brian Williams and most other Mainstream Media pundits repeatedly tell me so during every Great Repub Economic Crash and Recession and every remarkable Great Dem Economic Expansion and Recovery from those consistent Great Repub Crashes and Recessions.
But all those Dem election wins, some historic firsts, and almost zero losers over the past 3-4 years have been fun all the same.

"I did not go through any of the Republican crashes and can't even remember any." How old are you anyway? W's recession began in late 2007. So if you don't remember that one, it means that you were born in 2009 or later, which makes you 12 at most. But W's daddy had a recession in the early 90's so not remembering that one makes you in your late 20's or thereabouts. Maybe you get where this is going. But maybe not. In any case, willful ignorance is not a good look.
The simple facts are that there have been many Republican-run recessions since Reagan. The fact that you claim not to remember any of them speaks more to a refusal to remove your head from the sand than anything else.

Not even if you unfairly factor in and irrationally blame Obama-Biden for the millions of USA jobs Bush2's horrific economic stewardship was continuing to destroy in the first few months of the Obama-Biden administration before the positive effects of their first great economic recovery legislation passed entirely by Dems hit the street.
Which, by the way, USA Mainstream Media loves to do because it aids them in making the Dems' typically historically positive results look worse and the Repubs' typically historically disastrous results look better.
The same as when they unfairly credit the incoming Repub administrations taking over from Dems with the typically positive economic and USA jobs creating trajectory taking place and continuing for the next several months until the Repub administration passes its first disastrous economic legislation.
How much "easier" do you suppose it was for the Millions of Americans (including Californians) whose jobs were wiped out under Bush2 and Trump to buy meat and gas at any price than it was under Obama-Biden and is now under Biden-Harris? Lol. The answer is not at all.
There is zero evidence Repubs even know much less remotely understand how and why Trump's Great Repub Crash and Recession due to his incomparable contribution to producing Trump's Pandemic caused the current Supply-Chain paralysis and consequent inflation issues.
So just imagine the decades long clusterfuck Trump and his fellow lamebrain deadbeat QAnon Repubs would make of supposedly trying to "fix" the historic problem they created. Lol. They wouldn't have the slightest clue how to even put together legislation that addresses it.
Oh, they'd deficit spend Billion$ and Trillion$ for sure. But every precedent virtually guarantees that money would do something between absolutely nothing and produce far worse results.
By stark contrast, Biden and the Dems know what the fuck they're doing, how to do it and, most importantly, they will do it as well as it is humanly possible to do it:

One of New Jersey's most powerful elected Democrats conceded Wednesday that he lost reelection to a Republican political newcomer, a commercial truck driver who spent only a couple thousand dollars on his campaign.
State Sen. President Steve Sweeney's loss to Edward Durr in southern New Jersey shocked state officials and left state Democrats, who control the Legislature, searching for a new leader.
"I of course accept the results. I want to congratulate Mr. Durr and wish him the best of luck," Sweeney said during a speech at the statehouse complex Wednesday.
Sweeney said his loss to Durr, who spent at least $2,300 in the contest, was the result of overwhelming GOP turnout in his suburban Philadelphia, politically split district. He lost by about 2,000 votes.
"It was a red wave," he said.
Sweeney, who spent about $305,000 on his campaign, added that he won't be withdrawing from public life, though he stopped short of saying whether he would seek election to the Senate again or run for governor in 2025. He said that he is going to continue to focus on "the things that are important to the people of this state."
"What the voters said in this election is New Jersey is a state filled with hardworking people who want to provide for their families and as leaders we need to speak directly to the concerns of all voters," he said. "I plan to keep speaking to those concerns."
Durr planned to speak later Wednesday.
His loss unfolded in a politically competitive suburban district that includes parts of Gloucester, Cumberland and Salem counties, which split their votes between Democrats and Republicans in the presidential elections in 2016 and again in 2020.
It also coincided with boosted GOP turnout in an off-year election that saw Republicans win across the state. Durr's victory, which The Associated Press declared Thursday, netted about 3% more votes than Sweeney did in 2017 in unofficial returns.
Sweeney's attention was also focused on tight Senate races elsewhere in the state.
Wednesday's speech was unusually formal for Sweeney, who stood before a lectern with the state seal, speaking in a quiet voice.
He sad he entered politics after his daughter Lauren was born prematurely and had developmental disabilities. He said he stayed with her in the hospital because he had a good benefits at his job, as a union ironworker.
"Twenty years later, I was able to make sure that all New Jersey parents had the same opportunity to be with their loved ones in their time of greatest need when the paid family leave bill I sponsored was signed into law," he said.
Sweeney has served as Senate president since 2010 and was responsible for shepherding Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy's progressive agenda through the Legislature, including a phased-in $15 an hour minimum wage, paid sick leave and recreational marijuana legalization.
He is also known for his high-profile reversal on opposition to same-sex marriage. Sweeney said in 2011 that he made the "biggest mistake of my legislative career" when he voted against marriage equality.
Though Sweeney was a fellow Democrat, he fought Murphy at the start of his administration over raising income taxes on the wealthy and worked closely with Republican Chris Christie during his eight-year term in office ending in 2018.
A deal he worked out with Christie to overhaul public worker pensions put Sweeney at odds with public sector unions, who would go on to become key supporters of Murphy.
Thought he has clashed with Sweeney, Murphy said last week he bemoaned the loss and said he didn't welcome the news.
Sweeney said he wouldn't be seeking a recount, which is not automatic in New Jersey and would have to be financed by the party seeking the tally.

Similar to the general election when the democrats found votes in the middle of the night. Now every honest person would think that the election was over after 100% of the vote was counted but some democrats seem to want to get 110% of the votes counted. Only in the democrat world can you get more votes than voters.

Yes, there is no better Party to "get the country back on track" concerning important, complex economic problems than the Repub Party that apparently hasn't got the slightest clue what causes them, what to do about them, has NEVER solved them but is always there to PRODUCE them at historic high levels by whatever opportunistic, new and unprecedented means necessary, including doing NOTHING when taking action and actually LEGISLATING is required. lol

Funny article starts with this:
"No one doubts the job of president of the United States is stressful and demanding. The chief executive deserves downtime.
But how much is enough, and when is it too much?
These questions came into focus in 2019 after Axios released President Donald Trump's schedule. The hours blocked off for nebulous "executive time" seem, to many critics, disproportionate to the number of scheduled working hours.
While Trump's workdays may ultimately prove to be shorter than those of past presidents, he's not the first to face criticism. For every president praised for his work ethic, there's one disparaged for sleeping on the job. ?
Seems like Caligoof needs a lesson on how to search the internet.

Gee, I had no idea Biden's near utterly irrelevant USA drilling and pipeline policies had such an immediate effect on worldwide inflation. Damn, that Dem Party is obviously the MOST POWERFUL entity on the Planet the way they can overturn American election results leaving zero evidence of it, produce worldwide inflation problems with the wave of a wand and all that. I guess I underestimated the true POWER of that otherwise unknown Dem New Jersey State Senator.
Yes, there is no better Party to "get the country back on track" concerning important, complex economic problems than the Repub Party that apparently hasn't got the slightest clue what causes them, what to do about them, has NEVER solved them but is always there to PRODUCE them at historic high levels by whatever opportunistic, new and unprecedented means necessary, including doing NOTHING when taking action and actually LEGISLATING is required. lol[/QUOTE]Biden failing Americans has nothing to do with other countries. Yes Biden cutting drilling by 50% in the USA has created a shortage of USA crude. Making USA more reliant on Russia oil and OPEC oil. As on the 70's when OPEC saw oil demand in USA increase and USA dependent on their oil they raised crude prices dramatically. We are held hostage to OPEC once again. Biden begging OPEC to produce more oil and lower prices is not going to work. Biden threat to shut another pipeline from Canada to Michigan will reduce our supply by another 540,000 barrels per day which we will have to buy from OPEC at higher prices. Biden is not smart enough to increase domestic supply. He would rather be held hostage by OPEC and oil will go up another 25%. The USA will get back on track once Republicans reclaim the House and Senate. But Americans will have to suffer another year some possibly without heat this winter.

The drillers have more than enough acreage to drill, they are not exposing themselves to the risks like before, They are not getting finance because banks got badly burned in the last crash so they have to self fund which reduces their ability to drill. Pretty simple economics, not politics. Shale drilling is not an economic bonanza for drillers and so even at current prices they are being cautious. Shale production fell off a cliff under Trump. Are you saying he was the cause or lack of demand was the cause?

As for the Democratic douches here, there is no point in discussing with them. These fools still think the Russiagate impeachment was justified and everything in the Steele dossier was real, and they think all the bullshit arrests associated with this bogus investigation were great. Flynn and Stone were pardoned? They lied to the FBI who lied their asses off to the whole country? The horror.
Thing is Trump is going to win in 2024 if he chooses to run because anyone who looks at how the DOJ handled Hillary Clinton, Hunter Biden, and those associated with Russiagate, it is obvious that now the DOJ is a wing of the Democratic party, and the only one who may be able to fix it is Trump. It is critical to have an objective DOJ to have a functioning democracy.
It is amazing to me that after the 2016 Clinton-DOJ Russiagate conspiracy all the douches are like the 2020 election was fair. Why would anyone rational believe that?
But the thing you can count on with douches is not to have one second of regret. They will always counter. Well, yeah, but the Republicans did X. It is pathetic.

[URL]https://www.forbes.com/sites/rrapier/2021/11/06/the-double-irony-of-asking-opec-to-increase-oil-production/?sh=63ba515e45e0[/URL]
If we prematurely discourage investment in fossil fuels and then our dependence doesn't decline as rapidly as the Biden Administration envisions that is a recipe for shortages, higher prices, and greater dependence on foreign nations for our energy.
Like the Obama Administration, the Biden Administration initially adopted a relatively hostile position toward the fossil fuel industry. The revocation of the Keystone XL Pipeline permit and the temporary suspension of new oil and gas leases on federal lands were policies that signaled that the Biden Administration wants to move the country away from oil.
But what happens when Americans aren't ready to move on from oil, and new domestic supplies aren't meeting demand?
That's the position we currently find ourselves in. The Biden Administration could respond in one of two ways.
They could say High oil prices will speed up the transition to renewable energy which is certainly how they feel privately. After all, USA Officials attended the COP26 you. And. Climate Summit in Glasgow this week, where they discussed plans to reduce carbon emissions. They could tell Americans to take their medicine, live with higher gas prices, and then privately hope that hastens the transition to green energy.
But people don't like paying higher gasoline prices. So, the first irony is that the Biden Administration asked OPEC to pump more oil, undermining its COP26 messaging of reducing fossil fuel consumption. At the G-20 meeting in Rome, President Biden complained:
"The idea that Russia and Saudi Arabia and other major producers are not going to pump more oil so people can have gasoline to get to and from work, for example, is not right. "
President Biden pleaded with OPEC this week to pump more oil. Those pleas were rebuffed, and late in the week Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm called on oil-producing nations to immediately increase crude supplies so people won't be hurt by high prices this winter.
The second irony in this situation is that one country that is producing a lot less oil than it was 18 months ago is the USA And policies that are hostile to the oil industry indeed that will ultimately curtail USA Oil production potentially lead us to a place like this.
Secretary Granholm seemed unclear on why USA Producers haven't ramped production back up:
"I don't know why at $80 a barrel those incentives are not there. During Covid, it was down they backed off because demand was not there because people were staying home, we know that. Now that things are back up, the production should be meeting that demand, there has been rigs that have been added but not fully."
Because of the lag between price signals and production changes, the Biden Administration needs to make decisions now to ensure domestic supplies are strong during the rest of his term. One of the most important acts the administration could do is fast-track thousands of drilling permit applications that are waiting to be approved.
The administration slowed down these approvals early in the year. The pace has picked up substantially, but that initial slowdown is being felt right now. And that, in part, is why we have to ask OPEC to pump more oil. It's a bad look for the USA, but a consequence that I warned about in my February article.
The Biden Administration should learn a valuable lesson from this. An agenda to move the USA Away from fossil fuels is a noble one. But, if in the process your policies contribute to a supply shortfall and prices skyrocket, you won't be able to see that agenda through because you will be voted out of office. That is where theory collides with practical reality.
End of link.
But there is good news for power starved Americans.

The share of electricity generation produced by natural gas in the United States averages 36% in 2021 and 35% in 2022 in our forecast, down from 39% in 2020. In 2021, our forecast share for natural gas as a generation fuel declines in response to our expectation of a higher delivered natural gas price. As a result of the higher expected natural gas prices, the forecast share of electricity generation from coal rises from 20% in 2020 to about 23% in 2021 and 22% in 2022.

If we prematurely discourage investment in fossil fuels and then our dependence doesn't decline as rapidly as the Biden Administration envisions that is a recipe for shortages, higher prices, and greater dependence on foreign nations for our energy.
Like the Obama Administration, the Biden Administration initially adopted a relatively hostile position toward the fossil fuel industry. The revocation of the Keystone XL Pipeline permit and the temporary suspension of new oil and gas leases on federal lands were policies that signaled that the Biden Administration wants to move the country away from oil.
But what happens when Americans aren't ready to move on from oil, and new domestic supplies aren't meeting demand?
That's the position we currently find ourselves in.[/QUOTE]Great post! North Dakota has been able to ramp up their production because they have little federal land and plenty of private land to drill on. Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Montana ave been hit hard by Biden cancelling all drilling permits on federal land. Unfortunately most of the oil from North Dakota has to be shipped by truck and rail as there is not enough pipeline capacity to increase production. Biden as created this mess and it is going to get worse. He will not increase drilling in USA and we will e held hostage by OPEC. Expect higher gas prices. OPEC goal is to get crude oil over $100 a barrel and Biden is playing right into their hands. Heating bills will skyrocket also.
[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2626142]Is that what Russiagate was, American behavior? Like I said, you probably still believe Russiagate was real. Your post earns you douche points.

It was discovered, uncovered and admitted to countless times by any number of Team Trump members from the Chairman of the Trump Presidential Campaign to spokesmen for the Campaign to go-betweens for the collusion to Trump's own family members.
However, as was repeated countless times from the very beginning in the Mainstream Media, from Mueler's team, Trump's DOJ that busted, charged and convicted several Team Trump members for their crimes and even on this site, "collusion" with Russia was not a crime and was not something the investigators were even looking for.
True, it should have been a source of embarrassment and shame for Repubs and Trumpsters to know America's adversaries and enemies so dearly wanted their guy to win and work his magic to turn America into a shithole country.

They could say High oil prices will speed up the transition to renewable energy which is certainly how they feel privately. After all, USA Officials attended the COP26 you. And.

Stories have been coming out for some time now hinting Mueller's final report might leave audiences "disappointed," as if a President not being a foreign spy could somehow be bad news.
Openly using such language has, all along, been an indictment. Imagine how tone-deaf you'd have to be to not realize it makes you look bad, when news does not match audience expectations you raised. To be unaware of this is mind-boggling, the journalistic equivalent of walking outside without pants.
There will be people protesting: the Mueller report doesn't prove anything! What about the 37 indictments? The convictions? The Trump tower revelations? The lies! The meeting with Don, Jr? The financial matters! There's an ongoing grand jury investigation, and possible sealed indictments, and the House will still investigate, and.
Stop. Just stop. Any journalist who goes there is making it worse.
For years, every pundit and Democratic pol in Washington hyped every new Russia headline like the Watergate break-in. Now, even Nancy Pelosi has said impeachment is out, unless something "so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan" against Trump is uncovered it would be worth their political trouble to prosecute.
The biggest thing this affair has uncovered so far is Donald Trump paying off a porn star. That's a hell of a long way from what this business was supposedly about at the beginning, and shame on any reporter who tries to pretend this isn't so.
The story hyped from the start was espionage: a secret relationship between the Trump campaign and Russian spooks who'd helped him win the election.
The betrayal narrative was not reported as metaphor. It was not "Trump likes the Russians so much, he might as well be a spy for them. " It was literal spying, treason, and election-fixing crimes so severe, former NSA employee John Schindler told reporters, Trump "will die in jail."
In the early months of this scandal, the New York Times said Trump's campaign had "repeated contacts" with Russian intelligence; the Wall Street Journal told us our spy agencies were withholding intelligence from the new President out of fear he was compromised; news leaked out our spy chiefs had even told other countries like Israel not to share their intel with us, because the Russians might have "leverages of pressure" on Trump.
CNN told us Trump officials had been in "constant contact" with "Russians known to USA Intelligence," and the former director of the CIA, who'd helped kick-start the investigation that led to Mueller's probe, said the President was guilty of "high crimes and misdemeanors," committing acts "nothing short of treasonous."
Hillary Clinton insisted Russians "could not have known how to weaponize" political ads unless they'the been "guided" by Americans. Asked if she meant Trump, she said.
"It's pretty hard not to. " Harry Reid similarly said he had "no doubt" that the Trump campaign was "in on the deal" to help Russians with the leak.
None of this has been walked back. To be clear, if Trump were being blackmailed by Russian agencies like the FSB or the GRU, if he had any kind of relationship with Russian intelligence, that would soar over the "overwhelming and bipartisan" standard, and Nancy Pelosi would be damning torpedoes for impeachment right now.
There was never real gray area here. Either Trump is a compromised foreign agent, or he isn't. If he isn't, news outlets once again swallowed a massive disinformation campaign, only this error is many orders of magnitude more stupid than any in the recent past, WMD included. Honest reporters like ABC's Terry Moran understand: Mueller coming back empty-handed on collusion means a "reckoning for the media."
Of course, there won't be such a reckoning. (There never is). But there should be. We broke every written and unwritten rule in pursuit of this story, starting with the prohibition on reporting things we can't confirm.
End of quote. The irony is Taibbi was wrong. There was a disastrous impeachment.
Eih, seeing as how Trump has killed 750,000 Americans, should he not be allowed to run for office again?
And shouldn't anyone who votes for Trump (or voted for him in the past) be tried as an accessory to murder?
In fact, shouldn't anyone who votes Republican ever again have their votes disallowed because they are agents of Russia like Trump?

You might not know that, but what you do has a definition in psychology. It's called a "red herring," look it up.
1. No, Elvis, I don't think Trump was a Russian spy. He's too unhinged and undisciplined and narcissistic and, to be frank, dumb to be a spy. I do believe he was being groomed to be simply an agent of influence, but then, all of a sudden, there was a real shot at the White House.
2. Impeached? No. He deserves to be criminally prosecuted.
3. Why yes! He absolutely did put Russia's interests before America's.
4. Why yes! Of course, you fellas were duped. You still are.
5. No, you aren't Russian spies from what I know. You were duped (see #4).
6 and 7. No, I don't want any votes to be thrown out. For better or worse, every vote should count in a democracy.

The problem with you is you assume there are two sides, and you are on the right one when you could not be more wrong. Matt Taibbi puts it better than I ever could:
Compared with how often you heard pundits rage about the "insurrection," how regularly did you hear that billionaire wealth has risen 70% or $2.1 trillion since the pandemic began? The economic news at the top hasn't just been good, it's been record-setting good, during a time of severe cultural crisis.
Twenty or thirty years ago, the Big Lie was usually a patriotic fairy tale designed to cast America in a glow of beneficence. Nurtured in think-tanks, stumped by politicians, and amplified by Hollywood producers and media talking heads, these whoppers were everywhere: America would have won in Vietnam if not for the media, poverty didn't exist (or at least, wasn't shown on television), only the Soviets cuddled with dictators or toppled legitimate governments, etc. The concept wasn't hard to understand: leaders were promoting unifying myths to keep the population satiated, dumb, and focused on their primary roles as workers and shoppers.
All sense of noblesse oblige is gone. The logic of our kleptocratic economy has gone beyond even the "Greed is Good" mantra of the fictional Gordon Gekko, who preached that pure self-interest would make America more efficient, better-run, less corrupt. Even on Wall Street, nobody believes that anymore. America is a sinking ship, and its CEO class is trying to salvage the wreck in advance, extracting every last dime before Battlefield Earth breaks out.
It's only in this context that these endless cycles of hyper-divisive propaganda make sense. It's time to start wondering if maybe it's not a coincidence that politicians and pundits alike are pushing us closer and closer to actual civil war at exactly the moment when corporate wealth extraction is reaching its highest-ever levels of efficiency. Keeping the volk at each other's throats instead of pitchforking the aristocrats is an old game, one that's now gone digital and works better than ever. That might be worth remembering after the coming verdict, and ahead of whatever other hyper-publicized panic comes down the pipeline next.
End of quote.
The difference between the Republican retard and Democratic douche is the retard does not show his stupidity publicly while you guys are open about it, fighting to be queen of the douches with your hyperpartisan nonsense.

If he had been a Repub instead of a Dem he would be considered indisputably a "GREAT Repub President", maybe "The Greatest Repub President Ever!" But as a Dem he was mostly better than average.
Lol. I love pointing out Carter's far superior results vs every Repub in defiance of what typically pro Repub Mainstream Media has repeated in total contradiction of the actual data and record of results.
I mean, it's no fun pointing out how much better the FDR, JFK/LBJ, Clinton, Obama and now Biden results were than any Repub's results. By far. That's just too obvious and inarguable.

Better for you to wish the next Repub president doesn't Crash the USA economy into another Great Repub Recession/Depression and isn't puzzled over whether or not to defund the CDC and pull out all of its Pandemic Prevention and Response monitors from those Chinese labs against all expert advice not to do something so dangerous and stupid, lie about the next potential virus Pandemic for personal image reasons and thereby mass murder 750,000+ Americans, wipe out tens of millions more USA jobs and destroy international travel for years afterwards.

[QUOTE] WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump campaign’s interactions with Russian intelligence services during the 2016 presidential election posed a “grave” counterintelligence threat, a Senate panel concluded Tuesday as it detailed how associates of Donald Trump had regular contact with Russians and expected to benefit from the Kremlin’s help.
The nearly 1,000-page report, the fifth and final one from the Republican-led Senate intelligence committee on the Russia investigation, details how Russia launched an aggressive effort to interfere in the election on Trump’s behalf. It says the Trump campaign chairman had regular contact with a Russian intelligence officer and that other Trump associates were eager to exploit the Kremlin’s aid, particularly by maximizing the impact of the disclosure of Democratic emails hacked by Russian intelligence officers.
The report is the culmination of a bipartisan probe that produced what the committee called “the most comprehensive description to date of Russia’s activities and the threat they posed.” The investigation spanned more than three years as the panel’s leaders said they wanted to thoroughly document the unprecedented attack on U.S. elections...[/QUOTE]

I suppose if it really makes the MAGA crowd happier and more comfortable about what they voted for and supported, the world can call it "an unprecedented and alarming number of furtive, repeatedly deflected from and lied about meetings, interactions, contacts and connections between Team Trump and Russian Intelligence Agents and Operatives with the universally known purpose to help Donald Trump win the 2016 presidential election and prevent Hillary Clinton from winning".
But it seems a lot easier, less clumsy and, frankly, less damning for them to simply refer to it as "collusion".

[B]2 Fox News Pundits Quit Over 'Truly Dangerous' Tucker Carlson Special[/B]
Nov. 22, 2021.
[URL]https://news.yahoo.com/2-fox-news-pundits-quit-082720423.html[/URL]
[QUOTE]Two conservative commentators who have appeared on Fox News for more than a decade have resigned from the right-wing network over what they say is a dangerous Tucker Carlson special filled with lies about the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Jonah Goldberg and Stephen Hayes, two co-founders of the conservative website The Dispatch, wrote that Carlsons Patriot Purge special was a collection of incoherent conspiracy-mongering, riddled with factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery, and damning omissions.
They praised some of the reporters at Fox News, but said the voices of the responsible are being drowned out by the irresponsible.
The tension between doing that work well and remaining loyal to Fox has tested us many times over the past few years, Goldberg and Hayes wrote. But with the release of Patriot Purge, we felt we could no longer do right as we see it and remain at Fox News. So we resigned.
Hayes told the New York Times that Carlsons special is truly dangerous in a way that the usual hyperbole that you get on a lot of cable news isnt.
The two had been paid contributors to Fox News since 2009, according to the Times.
Carlsons special for Fox Nation claimed, among other things, that the insurrection may have been a false flag operation secretly orchestrated by the left, and that the left is somehow hunting conservatives and locking them up in Guantanamo-like conditions, complete with waterboarding..[/QUOTE]

"Stone said after his subpoena is served, he'll make a determination on how to proceed after consulting with his attorney.
The committee said Stone was in d. c. On Jan. 5 & 6, spoke at a Jan. 5 rally and was scheduled to speak on Jan. 6. he also sought financial support to pay for his security through a Stop the Steal website, lawmakers said. Stone also made remarks he was planning to "lead a March to the Capitol" from the Ellipse rally, according to the panel.
Before the siege, Stone was a guest at the Willard Hotel, where several prominent Trump allies met in part to plot how to overturn President Biden's election, according to the panel. That hotel meeting and guests are major areas of interest for the committee; Stone joins other subpoenaed guests who were also at the hotel, including former Trump strategist Steve Bannon, attorney John Eastman, ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn and Bernard Kerik, the former New York City police commissioner who was later sent to prison and then pardoned by Donald Trump.

Jan. 6 panel issues new wave of subpoenas for ex-Trump officials.
The panel says its focus on Jones, the controversial Austin, Texas figure, is tied to his help organizing the rally at the Ellipse before the riot on Jan. 6. Jones claimed to facilitate a donation that covered significant funding for the event, and spoke at a Jan. 6 event at Freedom Plaza.
Jones claimed he was told by the Trump White House that he was to lead a March from the Jan. 6th Ellipse rally to the Capitol. Jones was also a key figure in the spread of false election fraud claims.
Monday evening, Jones issued a statement through his website claiming he was "trying to stop" the Capitol riot."

You think it is just a wild coincidence that every major economic downturn of the past 100 years began on a Repub so-called potus' watch? It is different policies all the time. In Trump's case it was defunding the CDC and pulling out every one of their Pandemic Prevention and Response Teams from those Chinese labs in 2018 against all expert advice not to do something so dangerous, foolish and unnecessary. Then when the experts' warnings did indeed come to fruition in late 2019/ early 2020, he lied to the world about his colossal blunder result being a "Democrat Party HOAX! We've got this under control! There will be NO coronavirus in the Fall (of 2020). " Then he spent a year telling the world "It will go away without a vaccine!
Result? The huge economic Crash, massive USA job losses by the millions and, yep, the inevitable inflation due to his cowardice and lies destroying supply chains all around the world for years afterwards.
For Hoover, Eisenhower, Nixon / Ford, Reagan, Bush1 and Bush2, their huge or multiple Recessions were due to other new and unprecedented methods. But more often than not, as it was with Trump's Economic Disaster, it came down to them either doing nothing when the time and the Dems were begging them to do this or that or finally doing the exact wrong thing in response to a normal otherwise manageable economic cycle: as in being consistently mistaken that cutting taxes disproportionately for top income margins at the expense of all the other margins will create some magical Supply-Side / Trickle-Down economic expansion and jobs creation that NEVER has happened in the history of America and instead does exactly what any intelligent person would predict; it makes the super wealthy even wealthier and everyone else poorer.

If it is over $1000 and they are charged they are released immediately under CA bail laws.[/QUOTE]Well, time to stand corrected again. Because your revised claim is still a chicanery.
Proposition 47 did not end prosecution of thefts under $950 in California.
[QUOTE]CLAIM: Under Proposition 47 in California thefts under $950 will not be prosecuted.
AP ASSESSMENT: False. Proposition 47 was passed in California in 2014 and reclassified felony theft offenses as misdemeanors. It did not allow shoplifting and petty theft to go unprosecuted.
THE FACTS: The false claim about the proposition circulated on social media with a video showing two individuals walking out of a T.J. Maxx in Granada Hills, California, with duffle bags filled with merchandise and their arms filled with clothing on hangers. No one attempted to stop the pair as they walked out of the store and through the parking lot.
The scene was captured on video by another person in the store and circulated widely on news media.
Adam Carolla, a comedian who hosts a podcast, posted the video to Facebook along with a false comment about Proposition 47.
Thanks to Prop 47 thefts under $950 will not be prosecuted, Carolla commented on the post. So cops will not bother showing up. Just a reminder that you get what you voted for, California!
But the post is incorrect. The 2014 proposition modified, but did not eliminate, sentencing for many nonviolent property and drug crimes.
According to Alex Bastian, special advisor to Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascn who co-authored Prop 47, most shoplifting was already prosecuted as a misdemeanor anyway.
What Prop 47 did is increase the dollar amount by which theft can be prosecuted as a felony from $400 to $950 to adjust for inflation and cost of living, Bastian said. But most shoplifting cases are under $400 dollars to begin with, so before Prop 47 and after Prop 47, there isnt any difference.
Proposition 47 was enacted to comply with a 2011 California Supreme Court order, which upheld that Californias overcrowded prisons violated incarcerated individuals Eighth Amendment rights against cruel and unusual punishment.
In 2011, our prisons were bursting at the seams, and California was ranked either first or second behind Texas as having the highest per capita incarceration rate of any state in the country, Kubrin said. It was so bad that the Supreme Court stepped in and told us we needed to reduce our prison population by 33,000 individuals.
So the goal of Prop 47 was to limit our prison population, to reduce the number of people that we send to state prisons, said Kubrin. Prop 47 has achieved that goal while not causing crime rates to go up.[/QUOTE]So are you lying are ill-informed? Because it's either one or another, no third choice here.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2632953]Yeah, but the vast majority of USA Covid deaths now are Repubs who bought the con Trump was selling all through 2020 that it was a "Democrat Party HOAX!" and "This will go away without a vaccine!" For everyone else Biden's efforts to save millions of American lives have been a resounding success.
If Repubs are so intent upon committing Suicide By Trump's Pandemic Virus and permanently remove themselves from the voter rolls by refusing to get vaxxed, there is nothing Biden can do to stop them. Unless you are suggesting Biden sign an Executive Order requiring every American to get fully vaccinated or be incarcerated.
Is that what you want Biden to do?[/QUOTE]Biden said that any president that had that many deaths from a virus should resign. Trump had no vaccine until December 2020. No one was vaccinate under Trump presidency and less people died than under Biden. Kind of defeats your theory doesn't it? Biden has had three vaccines for 11 months and has more people die than died under Trump. By his own admission shouldn't he resign?

The World Health Organization declared that label on March 11, meaning Trump was president for a little more than 10 months of the formally declared pandemic. Biden has now passed a little more than 10 months in office as well.
Thus far, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Biden has presided over about 353,000 deaths in a little over 10 months, compared to about 425,000 for Trump in his final 10-plus months. So there have still been fewer deaths under Biden than under Trump, in a similar time period.

You're not going to generate much pity for those Repub FreeDumbshits or resentment for Biden in the rest of us relaxing in our new homes in such an analogous outcome regardless whatever word game you come up with about it.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2632777]When Biden was campaigning he said Trump did not have a clue on how to handle Covid and he had a plan to end Covid.

That means over 15,000 more people have died in 2021 than last year from COVID-19 and there's still more than a month left.
So for the first time, year 2021 Covid deaths exceeded the 2020 total with numbers of around 377,000 deaths in 2020 and 393,000 deaths in 2012.
But Covid-19 was killing, on average in January 2021, over 3,100 souls a day.
TrumpShit served as president for 21 days in January 2021. So when you determine that TrumpShit was in the White House for most of January 2021, let's count around 70,000 to 80,000 of January 2021 deaths as occurring when Shit served.

An examination of COVID-related American death data has again revealed dramatic differences between Republican and Democratic counties, with the reddest tenth of the nation in October chalking up a death rate six times higher than that of the bluest tenth, NPR reported.
That radical divergence for Republican counties has since dropped to a still startling 5.5 times higher, according to Charles Gaba, an independent health care analyst who has been tracking partisanship pandemic trends.
NPR's analysis found that since May, when COVID-19 vaccines became widely available, counties that voted in 2020 for Donald Trump by 60% or more have suffered nearly triple the rate of COVID-related deaths compared to counties that voted for Joe Biden by the same margin.
NPR gleaned the data by examining deaths per 100,000 people in 3,000 counties across the nation.
Though demographics varied widely among the counties, NPR determined that the single biggest factor in the dramatic difference was "misinformation" about COVID-19, which was linked to lower vaccination rates.
That held up even when controlling for age, which is the "primary demographic risk" for COVID-19 mortality, NPR noted.
The study found that the higher the vote share for Trump, the lower the vaccination rate.
Republicans are now the largest single demographic group of the unvaccinated in America, NPR reported. Being unvaccinated dramatically increases the risk of death from COVID-19, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"An unvaccinated person is three times as likely to lean Republican as they are to lean Democrat," said Liz Hamel, vice president of survey research at the Kaiser Family Foundation, a nonpartisan health policy think tank.
Polling by the foundation revealed that Republicans are far more likely to believe false statements about COVID-19 and vaccines. 94% of Republicans believe that one or more false statements about COVID-19 and vaccines might be true, and 46% believed four or more statements might be true.
Only 14% of Democrats tend to believe four or more false statements about the disease.
According to Hamel, underestimating the severity of the disease appears to be a major reason Republicans aren't getting vaccinated.

Seriously, wherever you're getting this Repub talking point from is obviously desperate to find any lunatic spin imaginable to distract attention from the fact that Biden and the Dems are producing the best legislative results across the board of any 1st year presidency ever while the Repubs are doing their usual nothing except scratching their butts and looking for any possible future opportunity to Crash the USA economy again and wipe out millions more USA jobs, the only thing Repubs have done for a living for at least the past century.[/QUOTE]Always a great read.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2634506]You and other RethugliKKKans have said on this board that the vaccines are worthless. So you can't give trump credit for developing the vaccines and, in the same breath, give him a pass for developing worthless vaccines.
Either trump developed worthless vaccines and paid billions for them or he developed great vaccines. Which one is it?[/QUOTE]I never ever said Trump vaccines don't work. I have both my shots and the booster and Trump fast tracking the vaccines saved several lives. Although most of my friends are democrats and vaccinated I have a few friends that are democrats that are not vaccinated and won't get vaccinated because they do not believe in it. It is not just republicans refusing to get vaccinated. In our area they are having trouble getting the blacks vaccinated. I am pretty sure all the blacks in California are not republicans.
Part of the problem is some democrats won't take the vaccine because Trump developed them. I have not seen one Republican on this board say the vaccines are worthless. Can you please show me one post here that says that? Or are you lying again?

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2634624][B]"October COVID Death Rate In Reddest Tenth Of Nation Six Times Higher Than Bluest"[/B]
An examination of COVID-related American death data has again revealed dramatic differences between Republican and Democratic counties, with the reddest tenth of the nation in October chalking up a death rate six times higher than that of the bluest tenth, NPR reported.
That radical divergence for Republican counties has since dropped to a still startling 5.5 times higher, according to Charles Gaba, an independent health care analyst who has been tracking partisanship pandemic trends.
NPR's analysis found that since May, when COVID-19 vaccines became widely available, counties that voted in 2020 for Donald Trump by 60% or more have suffered nearly triple the rate of COVID-related deaths compared to counties that voted for Joe Biden by the same margin.
NPR gleaned the data by examining deaths per 100,000 people in 3,000 counties across the nation.
Though demographics varied widely among the counties, NPR determined that the single biggest factor in the dramatic difference was "misinformation" about COVID-19, which was linked to lower vaccination rates.
That held up even when controlling for age, which is the "primary demographic risk" for COVID-19 mortality, NPR noted.[/QUOTE]In other words:

[QUOTE]So what explains the huge gap between antibody data on the one hand and the official case and death counts on the other? Part of the reason may be that Africa misses many more cases than other parts of the world because it has far less testing capacity. Kenya tests about one in every 10,000 inhabitants daily for active SARS-CoV-2 infections, one-tenth of the rate in Spain or Canada. Nigeria, the continent's most populous nation, tests one out of every 50,000 people per day. Even many people who die from COVID-19 may not get a proper diagnosis.[/QUOTE]Remember when Trump wanted to produce the same kind of misleading African data in America by discouraging testing? Of course, he would have managed to mass murder even more Americans with that "plan" than the nearly 800,000 he mass murdered so far.
Hey, look, everybody! It's another Dem-bashing Repub who doesn't believe the vaccine works and either won't take it himself or condones and encourages other Repub suckers not to bother, exactly the same thing Trump did for most of 2020.

In the end the most probable variables in the matter of Sub-Saharan Africa are associated with much younger populations (median ages around 16, 17), the lack of long term care facilities, and limited testing abilities. South Africa on the other hand has a median age at least 10 years higher with plenty of long term care facilities and testing. The stats there are very different.
[QUOTE=PVMonger;2635252]Nobody knows for sure.[/QUOTE]Yeah, you should stop right there. We actually agree on something. I could ask if the article showing how much better Dems are took into account all those theories. So no one knows why Africa was spared but we know that the only reason Republican counties are having so many more deaths is Republicans are stupidly resistant to getting vaccinated.
It must be that they are stupid right? Well, that could be or it could be they remember stuff like this:
A New England Journal of Medicine editorial headlined "Dying in a Leadership Vacuum" called the Administration "dangerously incompetent" and declared "we should not abet them and enable the deaths of thousands more Americans by allowing them to keep their jobs."
Or maybe they remember this:
Because of the Trump Administration's preparation, the USA Led most of the world in vaccinations this spring. Yet Mr. Biden had no plan to deal with the large numbers of vaccine holdouts, other than to deride them. He missed his goal of getting 70% of adults vaccinated by July 4 but proclaimed victory nonetheless.
Yeah, Biden forced Republicans into giving him a victory or not taking the vaccine it all, and enough Republicans refused the vaccine so Biden could not truly declare victory. How stupid was that?
You echoed the Washington Post when it wrote, "Biden has presided over about 353,000 deaths in a little over 10 months, compared to about 425,000 for Trump in his final 10-plus months."
But you seem to have forgotten this part:
President Biden may not recall what he said during a 2020 campaign debate last fall, but Americans should: "Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America. " At the time the USA Had recorded 220,000 Covid deaths.
And now comes the last bit of red state, Republican lies: The truth last year and this year is that the virus is impossible for any politician to control, much less eliminate. Mr. Biden used the illusion he could vanquish the virus to win election, and he is now paying a political price because he hasn't.
I asked you douches to give me a number for 2022 about the number of deaths and cases, and you wouldn't, but Biden gave us all a number.
So the big question is which slogan are you going to run on "only 353,000 deaths" or "It would have been less than 220,000 if not for those stupid Republicans." I can see you all are going with the latter. Good luck with that.

As for South Africa testing more, that is just made up. Other countries have tested similar amounts and more. That data is readily available on worldometer.
As for age, that does not fit either. The median age in Namibia is five years younger, and it has the same rate of Covid as South Africa. Botswana is three years younger and has double the case load.

People who live in states that voted for Donald Trump are at a 50% higher risk of dying from COVID-19.
That's according to a new CNN analysis of data from Johns Hopkins University, which shows a direct parallel between low vaccination rates and higher death rates in individual states.
Pro-Trump red states had a 52% higher average of COVID-19 deaths per capita than blue states, researchers found.
That mirrors the vaccination rate data, which showed that 4 in 10 republicans remain unvaccinated, compared to just 1 in 10 democrats.
The five states with the highest per capita death rates -- Oklahoma, Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, and West Virginia -- all went for Trump in the 2020 election.
Meanwhile, the death rates in blue states, where vaccination rates are higher, have significantly declined since vaccines were made available.

Gavin Newsom boasted that the Golden State "continues to lead the nation" as the only state to reach the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's yellow "moderate" tier of community virus transmission. But COVID-19 cases aren't falling in California anymore. They have climbed back up to the CDC's blood-red "high" level of virus transmission as the highly contagious Delta variant continues to wreak havoc.
Meanwhile, the virus has gone quiet in Deep South states that abandoned mask orders, opposed vaccine mandates, posted lower vaccination rates and saw larger outbreaks over the summer. California's case rate is now well above Texas' and double Florida's, which along with the rest of the Gulf Coast are down to the CDC's orange "substantial" transmission level."

We've got this under control. There will be NO coronavirus in the Fall (of 2020).

[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2635779]People who live in states that voted for Donald Trump are at a 50% higher risk of dying from COVID-19.
That's according to a new CNN analysis of data from Johns Hopkins University, which shows a direct parallel between low vaccination rates and higher death rates in individual states.
Pro-Trump red states had a 52% higher average of COVID-19 deaths per capita than blue states, researchers found.
That mirrors the vaccination rate data, which showed that 4 in 10 republicans remain unvaccinated, compared to just 1 in 10 democrats.
The five states with the highest per capita death rates -- Oklahoma, Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, and West Virginia -- all went for Trump in the 2020 election.
Meanwhile, the death rates in blue states, where vaccination rates are higher, have significantly declined since vaccines were made available.[/QUOTE]I assume this is another joke when fake news is quoted.

In a country where Biden has made sure every American can easily get fully vaccinated for free, the death rate is the rate that really matters. That's why the vaccines were invented despite Trump spending virtually all of 2020 trying to convince the world not to bother inventing one or taking one.
No vaccine ever invented is capable of preventing a positive test result, otherwise known as a "case". They aren't even invented for that purpose as case numbers will naturally increase as more people are vaccinated and mitigation measures are relaxed. A vaccine is designed on the premise that you will be exposed to the virus and will then test positive.
Vaccines are invented to prevent serious sickness leading to death from the virus.

The southern states tend to get a reprieve this time of year because the extreme heat is off and crowded indoor activities around AC decrease. They spike in the summer. It's seasonal. That was Desantis' excuse for the spike in FL over this summer and he was correct. On the other hand the north sees a spike as cold weather arrives due to increased indoor activities. But what is the big picture? Since the start of the pandemic red states with few exceptions have much higher Covid case rates per 100 K population, which gives us the big picture. See attachments. In fact if you look at the top ten then the bottom ten the former is about a Whos' Who of strong red states, the bottom the same of strong leftist states. The attachments are through 11/26/21. Follow the link and you'll see the maps updated through yesterday.
As to the increase in Covid deaths in 2021 as compared to 2020, first there were also more cases in 2021 to correlate with the deaths. The reasons are two fold, one the pandemic didn't get going strong until late March of 2020 so there is a shorter time frame. Two, there's been far more mobility this year as restrictions have lifted. There has however been considerably fewer deaths this year in relation to cases due to improved treatments and the vaccines that conservatives proportionately reject at a far greater rate than their liberal counterparts. See attachment.
So these "facts" you brought, or perhaps only copied and pasted off a right wingnut blog are actually half-truths that when presented alone represent an untruth.
P.S. Much of the nation including many red states, as well as some of the more northern counties in the South have high transmission rates over the last week, so it's disingenuous to single out Cali. Given what we know about Covid, a disease spread through aerosols, it no doubt would be worse if not for the many that cooperate with safety protocols like masking and social distancing. Comparing Sweden's results, a country that has had loose protocols against their Nordic neighbors who have taken the virus more seriously proves this. Check World O Meter under the individual countries.

Biden has now recovered and produced more jobs, recovered and rescued the economy from the latest Great Repub Economic Crash And Disaster, passed more effective positive legislation including historic bipartisan Infrastructure legislation in his first 10 months in office than vocational golfer Trump never came close to passing in 4 miserable years of empty promises to skip at least one failing Trump golf resort weekend excursion to even consider and saved millions of American lives faster than anyone other than Biden himself thought humanly possible.
To suggest that he would have reacted slower than Trump or anyone else and stalled in the proper response to the intel Trump got about the spread of Covid as early as January 2020 is preposterous on its face and contrary to everything that is easily observable, well known and fully documented about both Biden and Trump.
And that is in addition to the obvious truth that the CDC monitors and Pandemic Prevention and Response teams would not have been defunded and pulled out of those Chinese labs in 2018 against all expert advice not to do something so stupid and dangerous under Biden or any other Dem as happened under Trump. Which means the world very likely would never have been plunged into Trump's Pandemic and all of the subsequent worldwide deaths, massive jobs destruction, supply chain destruction and hyper-inflation that Trump's catastrophic stewardship produced in the first place.

With the Biden train wreck in full force many democrats are in denial. They keep looking to fake news and fake links on the internet that claim everything is better under Biden. Fake news does not see a crisis at the border. Fake news does not see crime out of control in democrat run states. Fake news does not see the looting of stores in California. Fake news does not see fake hate crimes. Fake news does not acknowledge the catastrophe in Afghanistan. Fake news does not see high gas prices and inflation. Fake news does not see Biden as a puppet to China and Russia. Instead fake news is still talking about Trump presidency. Well America sees the real news. They don't have to look at the fake news or the fake posts on the internet to tell them that their business wasn't really looted. They don't need fake news to tell them their kid was stabbed in a NYC subway. They live it every day. 20 per cent of the democrats are seeing it. 80 per cent are still ignoring it or denying it. 10 per cent are still stupid enough to blame Trump for Biden incompetency. Obviously people posting on this site don't live in the same USA as I do.

Here is the link: [URL]https://www.wsj.com/articles/bidens-covid-death-milestone-biden-administration-trump-11637708781[/URL].
President Biden may not recall what he said during a 2020 campaign debate last fall, but Americans should: "Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America. " At the time the USA Had recorded 220,000 Covid deaths.
Covid deaths this year have now surpassed the toll in 2020 with 350,000 since Inauguration Day. It would seem that Mr. Biden has done no better than Donald Trump in defeating Covid despite the benefit of vaccines, better therapies, and more clinical experience. The left politicized Covid by holding Mr. Trump responsible for a disease that was always going to be hard to defeat.
"If the president had done his job, had done his job from the beginning, all the people would still be alive," Mr. Biden said last fall. That was as false as anything Mr. Trump ever said, but most journalists and experts agreed with the basic premise: Mr. Trump had blood on his hands. The world's top medical journals called for Mr. Trump's defeat.
A New England Journal of Medicine editorial headlined "Dying in a Leadership Vacuum" called the Administration "dangerously incompetent" and declared "we should not abet them and enable the deaths of thousands more Americans by allowing them to keep their jobs. " No wonder so many conservatives don't trust these health experts.
Mr. Biden famously promised "to shut down the virus, not the country," and he accused Mr. Trump of having "no plan. " Mr. Trump did downplay the virus in the early part of 2020, and he needlessly put himself in the middle of almost every debate over the disease and possible treatments. Politically, he played into Mr. Biden's hands. But his Administration accelerated the vaccines and therapies that Mr. Biden later took credit for.
Because of the Trump Administration's preparation, the USA Led most of the world in vaccinations this spring. Yet Mr. Biden had no plan to deal with the large numbers of vaccine holdouts, other than to deride them. He missed his goal of getting 70% of adults vaccinated by July 4 but proclaimed victory nonetheless.
Then came the more transmissible Delta variant, which Mr. Biden also had no plan to deal with though it had been spreading around the world for months. He needlessly injected himself into fights in GOP states over mask mandates. By late September, daily deaths exceeded 2,000 more than twice as many as a year earlier.
Mr. Biden blamed GOP governors and unvaccinated conservatives. Yet blacks and young people have also shown reluctance to get vaccinated, and they don't tend to be Republican. See Nicki Minaj and Kyrie Irving. Meantime, Mr. Biden's vaccine mandates have further polarized the country.
Virus cases this fall have plunged in the South but are now rising in the Northeast and Midwest states with relatively high vaccination rates. Vaccines are helpful in preventing severe illness but aren't as effective at preventing infections and transmission as health experts hoped. Booster shots will be needed to keep the virus at bay this winter, especially for seniors and people at high risk. Yet the Administration's messaging on boosters has been inconsistent and often confusing.
We recount all this not to blame Mr. Biden for this year's Covid deaths. The truth last year and this year is that the virus is impossible for any politician to control, much less eliminate. Mr. Biden used the illusion he could vanquish the virus to win election, and he is now paying a political price because he hasn't.

They keep looking to fake news and fake links on the internet that claim everything is better under Biden. Fake news does not see a crisis at the border. Fake news does not see crime out of control in democrat run states. Fake news does not see the looting of stores in California. Fake news does not see fake hate crimes. Fake news does not acknowledge the catastrophe in Afghanistan. Fake news does not see high gas prices and inflation. Fake news does not see Biden as a puppet to China and Russia. Instead fake news is still talking about Trump presidency. Well America sees the real news. They don't have to look at the fake news or the fake posts on the internet to tell them that their business wasn't really looted. They don't need fake news to tell them their kid was stabbed in a NYC subway. They live it every day. 20 per cent of the democrats are seeing it. 80 per cent are still ignoring it or denying it. 10 per cent are still stupid enough to blame Trump for Biden incompetency.

Thing is Rachel Meadow has half the viewership of Sean Hannity, yet any time you watch a show on TV, it is Fox news that gets excoriated. CNN is a total flop.
Still, there is an explosion in the media world that the so called mainstream media is not talking about: The Joe Rogan show, Matt Taibbi and Glenn Greenwald on substack. In fact, Matt Taibbi was on the Joe Rogan show here, [URL]https://open.spotify.com/episode/5UvmcC0jD6WgbxrqwoJylI[/URL].
He predicts why the Democrats are going to get smoked again. He is honest that 90+% of reporters are Democrat and identifies himself that way but he unlike Rachel Meadow and so many others he does not suck the dick of the Democrats in power.
The first two hours are more of why journalism got to what you are complaining about. I enjoyed it but it is from about the 2:20 point that IMO the show hits its high. To me, in the first part what is important are that he and Glenn Greenwald are killing it. They are the part of journalism that are growing, but that was about it. Greenwald is making like $2 million a year, and Taibbi is probably close to that, and the good news is they are clearly not paid off. But it the second part after about 2:20 that the magic happens.
It is funny in that Taibbi totally gets why Trump was elected, and unlike the so called "intellectual" class and the douches here, he does not say people who voted Republican are stupid. He gets the why.

President Biden may not recall what he said during a 2020 campaign debate last fall, but Americans should: "Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America. " At the time the USA Had recorded 220,000 Covid deaths.
Covid deaths this year have now surpassed the toll in 2020 with 350,000 since Inauguration Day. It would seem that Mr. Biden has done no better than Donald Trump in defeating Covid despite the benefit of vaccines, better therapies, and more clinical experience. The left politicized Covid by holding Mr. Trump responsible for a disease that was always going to be hard to defeat.
"If the president had done his job, had done his job from the beginning, all the people would still be alive," Mr. Biden said last fall. That was as false as anything Mr. Trump ever said, but most journalists and experts agreed with the basic premise: Mr. Trump had blood on his hands. The world's top medical journals called for Mr. Trump's defeat.
A New England Journal of Medicine editorial headlined "Dying in a Leadership Vacuum" called the Administration "dangerously incompetent" and declared "we should not abet them and enable the deaths of thousands more Americans by allowing them to keep their jobs. " No wonder so many conservatives don't trust these health experts.
Mr. Biden famously promised "to shut down the virus, not the country," and he accused Mr. Trump of having "no plan. " Mr. Trump did downplay the virus in the early part of 2020, and he needlessly put himself in the middle of almost every debate over the disease and possible treatments. Politically, he played into Mr. Biden's hands. But his Administration accelerated the vaccines and therapies that Mr. Biden later took credit for.
Because of the Trump Administration's preparation, the USA Led most of the world in vaccinations this spring. Yet Mr. Biden had no plan to deal with the large numbers of vaccine holdouts, other than to deride them. He missed his goal of getting 70% of adults vaccinated by July 4 but proclaimed victory nonetheless.[/QUOTE]"Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America."
Thanks for the exact quote. Biden is not responsible for any deaths from Trump's Pandemic Virus. But Trump is responsible for virtually all of them.
Unless you have documented proof of Biden convincing weak minded Trumpsters to refuse to get the vaccines he provided them for free and to commit Suicide By Trump's Pandemic Virus instead.

What in the world does winning an election by hook or by Repub crook have to do with which side produces every major downturn and disaster and none of the great economic expansions (Repubs) while another side produces all of the great economic expansions and none of the major downturns and disasters (Dems)?
Only dictatorial authoritarians and their lemming supplicant followers think gaining power is proof of "righteousness."
Here a historical fact for you and Taibbi; after FDR the Dems passed The New Deal programs, after LBJ and the Dems passed the Great Society programs, after Clinton and the Dems passed the Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 without a single Repub vote and triggered one of the greatest economic recoveries and expansions of all time and after Obama and the Dems passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act without a single Repub vote, triggering another one of the greatest economic recoveries and expansions of all time and the Affordable Care Act, all programs and historic legislation that the American people approve of, want to keep and appreciate today as great improvements in their lives and what makes America great. The Dems got smoked in midterm elections.
And, guess what? That smoking happened with sero BS sucker culture war issues like "wokeism", Critical Race Theory, transgender toilets, gay marriage, mask and vaccine mandates etc anywhere in sight.
Are you shocked? I'll bet Taibbi would be shocked to learn an actual historical fact like that one.
There is no reason to expect anything different to happen next year after Biden and the Dems have already passed historic, economy-recovery, expansion, jobs-creating and infrastructure legislation and programs that have already broken positive records in improving American lives and will without question be among the most appreciated and revered of all time.
Hate to break it to you, but it turns out the American electorate is simply not strong on expressing appreciation for the best things that are done for them in the next 1 or 2 midterm election periods. It takes time for them to realize the benefits of these things and they always subject to fall for the demonizing of them by Dem-bashing liars on the other side and their ever supportive electioneering benefactors in the typically pro-Repub Mainstream Media.

If people can congregate outside (the northern tier states in the summer and the southern tier states in the winter), the likelihood of getting infected is less.
And no vaccine, ever, has had no breakthrough infections. They happen with every vaccine. Any epidemiologist can tell you that some viruses mutate faster than others. And any virus mutates faster of there are hordes of unvaccinated dummies, like there are in the US.
And that is the case with COVID. Republicans by the thousands are refusing to get vaccinated, thus causing the virus to mutate faster.

NBC and CBS both had a lot of coverage. And unusual for them, a lot of their coverage was about Fox news personnel.
They both devoted a lot of their coverage to Liz Cheney that gave great details about January 6th text missives from Fox Folks like Hannity and Laura Ingraham.
NBC and CBS spent a lot of time in their broadcasts showing the stark difference between the reality of Laura Ingam's desperate texts to Mark Meadows asking TrumpShit to call off the scary insurrection, and the laughable broadcast by Laura Ingraham the night of January 6th blaming the capital insurrection on ANTIFA.
It is a pretty easy contrast to see that the news Laura Ingraham was creating and living was nearly the polar opposite of what she repoted at the same time.
Just so we can be clear as to what FAKE NEWS is.
They broadcast more fake news on Fax last night.
Without the details of missives with Mark Meadows (which was all over the real news).

Residents of Trump-Loving Retirement Community Arrested for Allegedly Voting Twice in 2020 Election
[quote]Authorities have arrested and charged three residents of a Florida retirement community for allegedly casting more than one ballot in the 2020 election, multiple outlets reported on Tuesday. Joan Halstead, Jay Ketcik, and John Rider all face a third-degree felony charge for their votes, which could land them in prison for up to five years.
Its unknown which candidate they favored, but Halstead and Ketcik are both registered Republicans, The Orlando Sentinel reported (Rider does not have a register party affiliation). The retirement community where the trio lived, The Villages, is also a well-known MAGA hub, and pro-Trump material has reportedly appeared on Facebook pages appearing to belong to Ketcik, Halstead, and Rider.[/quote]

Biden was not so resistant to encouraging anyone on the planet and especially Americans from taking the life-saving vaccines Trump spent all of 2020 trying to convince the world not to bother inventing or taking but that Biden made free and easily available to every American that he got vaccinated himself in near secrecy earlier this year.

So Pfizer is making $36 billion with a vaccine whose technology was paid for by taxpayers, and they want to keep giving boosters. Gee, I wonder why. It cannot be for money. No, Pfizer would never do that. Do you get the idea the pandemic will be over when Pfizer quits making money?

PVMonger actually shockingly admits Biden made a mistake then blames Biden's failure on Republicans. Why would Biden or any Democrat think Republicans would help him? It seems like there is now a daily fiasco with the vaccines. First, Twitter banned anyone who said the vaccinated could spread Covid. Then youtube banned the doctor on the Joe Rogan shows. The doctor talked about how the vaccines are EUA and it is insanity to talk about any therapy without analyzing risk and benefit. Yeah, that was "controversial" and youtube banned that conversation.
And the variants are due to Republicans? I never knew how many Republicans lived in South Africa where Omicron began. Did you?
That is the thing about Democratic. Time and again, all they talk about is lives and safety, but they are the party of lawyers, and when you really dig down, it really is not safety but money in the pockets of lawyers or Democrats that really matter.
Here is an essay that someone I have great respect for wrote when going to a "science" conference: [URL]https://freemansperspective.com/my-adventures-at-climate-change-central/[/URL]#more-11249.
I will quote the last line: If, tomorrow, new research emerged, proving beyond any shadow of a doubt that global warming was false and if people had the emotional strength to accept it the crowd at these shows would not be ashamed. Rather, they'd stand up, look around at each other, and say, "Well, what should we do next?
It is the same with the vaccine. Censorship and these unending strings of boosters will lead to a non-public admission of failure at some point. The public is tired of this if we just do X, all will be well crap just to find out that there is a why, Z, and now an omicron. At some point, all the fear mongering will be forgotten by most. Remember flatten the curve? The media is doing all it can to have those three words banned too.
He does one on medicine as well: [URL]https://freemansperspective.com/the-weaponization-of-medicine/[/URL]#more-11301.
One quote: At this point, if you don't include "conspiracy theory" research, you're more or less stuck with Orwell's Ministry of Truth. Sad but mostly true.
He is of course right. If you look at the efficacy data on ivermectin versus the vaccine in virus prophylaxis, ivermectin wins in a landslide but you would have to go to censored sources to find that.

Yep, they were just as loony and unsubstantiated as we would have suspected if not more.
Aside from that, can you explain the nature of this Biden failure of which you speak? Biden defined the failure re Covid as in being "responsible" for deaths, right? So how is Biden "responsible" for laying the groundwork for converting a likely manageable endemic viral episode into the full blown Trump's Pandemic it became and still is in all its new and challenging variants? He didn't do that, Trump did.
Or were you referring to the other winger-defined Biden "failure" in getting the life-saving vaccines (the ones Trump spent all of 2020 trying his best as the so-called potus to convince the world, which includes Africa by the way, not to bother inventing a vaccine for that Democrat Party Hoax virus or taking one if some company is foolish enough to waste their time and money inventing one since his Pandemic was already disappearing and will go away without a vaccine anyway) free and easily available to every American?
Or does it also include the winger-defined Biden "failures" that his economic stewardship and legislation have in just his first 10 months recovered and produced triple the number of USA jobs that Trump, Bush2 and Bush1 produced in their entire presidencies combined?
That wages have increased for USA jobs under Biden more than they have in decades?
That child poverty in America has been reduced by almost 50% under Biden?
That annual Real GDP Growth under Biden is on track to hit 6%, greater than it has grown in decades?
That the USA stock market, far from crashing into a Bear Market as Two Bear Market Crashes In Just Four Years Trump incorrectly predicted would happen as soon as Biden whipped his butt in a Trump-defined landslide in a free and fair election, has been at or near its all time record closing high for months in one of the steadiest Bull Market rally climbs ever since Biden took office?
Or do you simply mean the consensus of Biden's job approval poll ratings was for a while almost but not quite as low as Trump's was for his entire first year in office?
I'm also not sure what the "checks" are that you suggest I am getting from Democrats. The only checks I have gotten from the USA government lately were the same Trump's Pandemic and Economic Disaster Emergency Relief Checks most Americans got starting in 2020 under Repub Trump and then in 2021 under Dem Biden.

Trump created the need for 3, 4 or 100 vaccines to prevent serious sickness or death from his Pandemic virus. Thankfully, several manufacturers had already spent years researching and studying coronaviruses so they could swing into action and develop those vaccines in defiance of Trump's year long insistence that nobody bother inventing one, much less take one.
Ted Cruz has been abusing the process (he's an abuser) of senate obstruction towards approval of ambassador nominations.

If Ted Cruz wants to shit over the whole process, he's welcome to spend the next three weeks doing that and missing Christmas.
We need our ambassadors to represent out interests around the world.
Due to obstruction, Joe Biden has only received 15% confirmation of his large number of current nominations.
At the same point in their Presidential terms, TShit had 73% confirmed, Barack Obama had 75% confirmed, and George W. Bush had 90% confirmed.

You agreed with Elvis when he said that Republicans are under no obligation to help Biden and get vaccinated. In other words, you support willful ignorance. Now, you say that Biden is to blame because he can't get Republicans to get vaccinated? If Republicans are too willfully ignorant to get vaccinated, that's their fault, not Biden's. Biden has led them to water. If they won't drink, it isn't Biden's fault byut rather the fault of everybody pushing ludicrous theories sthan only Republicans believe.
Since you believe that all three COVID vaccines are worthless, you are saying that the Mango Mussolini developed three worthless COVID vaccines. That was on trump.
I do not want Joe Biden, or any future federal office holder.
To obstruct or attempt to undermine free and fair elections.
It will be necessary to prosecute those who did.
In order to prevent it from happening in the future.
From all that's come out in the legitimate press this week in December.

Do you remember Aaron Rogers getting blasted by the media for lying about being vaccinated? So he gets Covid and the last few weeks, he has played and never looks better. The media who skewered looks like shit now.
The notion was that Rogers was putting his teammates at risk. Ha! The NFL players were 94% immunized back in September [URL]https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-pushing-closer-to-covid-19-vaccination-goal-all-but-5-teams-have-player-vaccination-rate-of-90-or-above/[/URL].
And now there are three games being postponed this week due to Covid outbreaks. [URL]https://nypost.com/2021/12/17/nfl-postpones-browns-rams-and-washington-games-amid-covid-surge/[/URL].
The only explanation left for the Democratic douches is all NFL players are Republicans and faked their vaccine cards!
So Biden knows the vaccines are shit. His claim that anything over 220,000 deaths per year is a failed presidency is now coming to bite him in the butt. Democratic douches like him publicized Trump's failure to stop a virus, which was a crock because Trump had nothing to do with viral spread, and he only has one card left, double down on blaming Republicans. So now every day it is the same crap in the liberal media: It's all Republicans fault Covid is not gone! He is banking on the fact that no one looks beyond USA borders to see Covid is raging there.
So the Republicans and independents have seen how the Dems have done no better with the virus than Trump did, they just pretend to care more. They have seen Aaron Rogers get crushed for not taking the vaccine but saw how well he played and now how everyone has been mum about how shitty the vaccine is. This is the worst Covid has ever been in the NFL despite the vaccination rate.
They have also seen not just fit players but fat ass coaches test + for Covid and come back in a week or two and look fine.
Then you have soccer in Europe, and the vaccine rates there are not as high as in the USA but this article says 2 in 3 players are vaccinated. [URL]https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-10-19/premier-league-says-majority-of-players-are-fully-vaccinated[/URL].
The American Heart association has published a study showing that Covid vaccines produce heart inflammation and now you have all these soccer players, among the most fit in the world, dropping like flies due to heart issues: [URL]https://summit.news/2021/11/09/german-newspaper-highlights-unusually-large-number-of-soccer-players-who-have-collapsed-recently/[/URL].
So it is known that the vaccines cause heart problems and the soccer players are having heart problems but the official link between the two is not known. But do not worry the FDA will release all the safety data on the vaccines in 75 years.
So people can now see the known Covid sufferers and say "They look fine" and they can see fit soccer players passing out on the field and say "They don't. " and wonder what the fuss is about. In the sports world, it looks like the Covid vaccine is worse than Covid.
And finally you have that the vaccines are for emergency use allowed, and you have to ask WTF is the emergency? Biden being able to blame Republicans for what he defined as failures? And that is when the anger comes in. This is politicians playing with your body and your health when they do not know what they are doing.
The ultimate vaccine cowardice now is in 3rd world countries. In an admission their vaccines are not safe, the vaccine manufacturers are so worried about lawsuits they will not vaccinate refugees, effing refugees!: [URL]https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/refugees-arent-getting-vaccines-because-drugmakers-ngos-fear-lawsuits[/URL].

In light of the latest reports of Trump's politicization of the coronavirus outbreak that worked beautifully to ensure it would become the historic Trump's Pandemic it became and still is, let's recap this from the beginning.
Despite his rushing in too little too late in order to falsely claim some credit for what had been researched and planned for decades and only after the USA Stock market crashed in response to the mounting deaths from the already established Trump's Pandemic to merely "brand" the effort to produce vaccines for it as soon as humanly possible (an idea that Trump supporters here now consider shitty anyway), no world leader did more and worked harder than iconic Republican Party so-called potus Donald J. Trump to pave the runway as smoothly as possible for any roundly warned about and predicted potential deadly virus to spread unabated and develop into a worldwide economy-destroying Pandemic that, among its other horrific results, would in all its inevitable variations predictably cripple the entire point and purpose of this website for years to come if not forever:

One official, then-CDC National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases Director Dr. Nancy Messonnier, told the committee Trump was "angered" after she gave a briefing on February 25, 2020, that warned about the danger of Covid-19. She told the select subcommittee she felt "upset" after she received calls from then-CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield and then-HHS Secretary Alex Azar about it.
...
Another example of weakened guidance in the report is from Birx, who confirmed to the committee that Dr. Scott Atlas, a senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, was involved in changing testing guidance to advise against testing most asymptomatic people even if they were exposed to the virus -- something the report said that is contrary to science-based recommendations. Trump brought on Atlas to the coronavirus task force after seeing him appear on Fox.
CNN has reached out to Atlas for comment.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2639568]Individually TrumpShit was a super spreader.
TShit tested positive for Codid-19 on September 26, 2020 and concealed the results for six days until he announced his infection on October 2nd.
For the six days that TShit lied about having Covid-19, he got steadily sicker and sicker and exposed over 500 people to his viral sliminess.
Including exposing Joe Biden on their first presidential debate show on September 29th.
That vaccine really does a great job. Before the vaccine many would have been goners, like Herman Cain.
Or really think about what you write.[/QUOTE]The biggest super spreaders is the open border illegals. Biden makes every legal person entering the USA to be vaccinated but millions of unvaccinated illegals can bring Covid into USA daily. I guess democrats can't get Covid from illegals but with this Biden policy Covid will never end and new viruses will be entering our country daily. Biden is killing Americans every day with his open border policy. All Biden voters can take credit for bringing Covid in every day and killing Americans.
[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2639547]I agree, and the vaccine worked great for the first 3 months. Then it seems like it did nothing at all. Do you remember Aaron Rogers getting blasted by the media for lying about being vaccinated? So he gets Covid and the last few weeks, he has played and never looks better. The media who skewered looks like shit now.
The notion was that Rogers was putting his teammates at risk. Ha! The NFL players were 94% immunized back in September [URL]https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-pushing-closer-to-covid-19-vaccination-goal-all-but-5-teams-have-player-vaccination-rate-of-90-or-above/[/URL].
And now there are three games being postponed this week due to Covid outbreaks. [URL]https://nypost.com/2021/12/17/nfl-postpones-browns-rams-and-washington-games-amid-covid-surge/[/URL].
The only explanation left for the Democratic douches is all NFL players are Republicans and faked their vaccine cards!
So Biden knows the vaccines are shit. His claim that anything over 220,000 deaths per year is a failed presidency is now coming to bite him in the butt. Democratic douches like him publicized Trump's failure to stop a virus, which was a crock because Trump had nothing to do with viral spread, and he only has one card left, double down on blaming Republicans. So now every day it is the same crap in the liberal media: It's all Republicans fault Covid is not gone! He is banking on the fact that no one looks beyond USA borders to see Covid is raging there..[/QUOTE]Great post. Incompetent presidents have no strategy, do nothing and blame past presidents. The problem is that Biden has no clue. Trump didn't blame Obama for hurting the American way of life. He just changed the policies and regulations and made America great again. The next president will have the same task of fixing America again after Biden.

The best part of my poll and article, is that it has a lot more coverage on death patterns. Yummy.
"the gap in Covid's death toll between "blue" states that vote mostly Democratic and "red" states that vote mostly Republican this fall widened more quickly than at any previous point of the pandemic.
A total of 25 out of every 100,000 residents in counties that voted for Donald Trump died of Covid in October, compared with the 7. 8 per 100,000 in counties that voted heavily for Biden, according to the data analysis from the Times."
We are living in great times. Survival of the fittest!

Nobody in the administration seemed to have an IQ in the double-digits.
"The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis on Friday released a 46-page report confirming what was readily apparent to most reasonable, informed Americans: The Trump administration made "deliberate efforts" to undermine America's response to Covid-19 for political purposes.
Most of the documents cited in the committee's report have already been made public, including ones that show how the administration played down the importance of testing and even prevented public officials from holding briefings to educate the public on the highly contagious disease. New information released Friday, however, further illustrates how public health officials were put in difficult positions by the administration.
In May 2020, for instance, the administration shelved the Centers for Disease Control's mask guidance for churchgoers, reportedly because the White House feared a backlash from Trump's religious supporters. In response, the deputy director for infectious diseases at the CDC wrote in an email that he was "very troubled. That there will be people who will get sick and perhaps die because of what we were forced to do."
Dr. Deborah Birx also lamented the influence of "fringe groups" who peddled the dangerous idea of herd immunity.
"These are people who believe that all the curves are predetermined and mitigation is irrelevant — they are a fringe group without grounding in epidemics, public health or on the ground common sense experience," the administration's Covid-19 response coordinator wrote to Marc Short, then-chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence, in Aug. 2020.
The report also delved into the management of pandemic relief programs, finding some of them were susceptible to fraud. The Farmers-to-Families Food Box Program, it notes, was "used as a partisan tool to secure political advantages" for Trump himself. Under this program, the administration handed out hefty contracts to unqualified distributors with red flags in their applications, partly because USDA personnel didn't even bother to contact the references listed on their applications. In fact, the recipient of one early contract simply wrote: "I don't have any."
The report's key points include how the Trump White House "instructed CDC career scientists to destroy evidence of political interference," "pressured the Food and Drug Administration to authorize ineffective coronavirus treatments," "neglected the pandemic response to focus on the 2020 election and the 'Big Lie, and "used personal email accounts to conduct official business."
All in all, the report concluded, the Trump administration's series of actions during this critical time amounted to "one of the worst failures of leadership in American history."

Greenville, S. C. A tea party Republican who recently helped turn over the party leadership in South Carolina's largest county has died from complications of Covid-19.
Pressley Stutts died Thursday, according to other party leaders and his family. The USA Navy veteran was 64.
Over the summer, Stutts led a group loyal to former President Donald Trump to force the resignation of several Greenville County Republican Party leaders after a failed bid to defeat state party chairman Drew McKissick.

Ironically, it is conservative political, media and religious elites who are causing these deaths by undermining public health directives aimed at protecting people from COVID-19. Science tells us that the best way to combat COVID is through vaccination, mask wearing and social distancing. These practices have been attacked by many conservative leaders, and it is killing Republican voters.

He couldn't have done a better job of conning his cult if he would've tried.
He was told by the scientists (people with real, not Facebook, degrees) that masking was important. He then, by example, told the cult not to wear them. He was aided in this, of course, by the rightwingnut propaganda outlets who, at the same time, were requiring staffers to be masked. Con job!
He was told by those same scientists (the one's with the real degrees not the fake ones) that other measures could help buy time so hospitals could "ramp up". He then told states to open back up. He was aided in this, of course, by the rightwingnut propaganda outlets who, at the same time, told their viewers that the "buying time" thing was bogus. Con job!
He had vaccines developed then ordered the cult not to take them by means of the talking heads at Fux "news" and the rest of the rightwingnut propaganda outlets. Fux "news" even mandates vaccines or daily testing. So while the talking heads are close to 100% vaccinated and boosted, the rank-and-file cultists are only 50% vaccinated and even fewer are boosted. Con job!
And at the cult-and-ego-fest in Dallas, the great con artist was boo'ed when he suggested that his cultists should get vaccinated and boosted like him. He said, in essence, "Get vaccinated so that you can live and vote Republican in the 2022 mid-terms and vote multiple times for me in 2024." When the cultists boo'ed him, were they really saying "Once we own the libs by dying, we'll vote from the grave?"
I am old enough to remember the slogan "Better dead than Red". The wingers have changed the slogan to "Better dead than vaccinated."
Was Forrest Gump talking about wingers when he said "Stupid is as stupid does"?
"Mr. Meadow's testimony will bear on another fundamental question of this committee. And that is whether Donald J. Trump, through action or inaction, corruptly sought to obstruct or impede Congresses official proceedings to count electoral votes. This committee is entitled to Mr. Meadow's testimony and it will inform our legislative judgements. " - Liz Cheneyon December 20,2021.
Other January 6th protesters have already been charged with this same crime.
Only a matter of time until it is TrumpShit's turn.
We all will be watching from legitimate news sources.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2640905]The cultists and rightwingnuts are saying that the vaccines are worthless, not me.[/QUOTE]They are by the FDA's own definition. Considering that the FDA's own expectation is of "at least 50%" efficacy for any approvable vaccine. In terms of the vaccine "working," the FDA has violated its own low standards to fast-track approval for this vaccine and they haven't told us why.
[URL]https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abm0620[/URL]
Only Moderna would be approved today and that was with Delta. With Omicron, none of the vaccines work. Hell, you have organization after organization with 95+% people vaccinated, and everyone hit with Covid.
As for the Democrat-Republican schtick you are doing: the vaccines Trump developed for alpha corona worked great. Delta and Omicron hit and Biden's response was just bullying people into taking the same vaccines that do not even work by the FDA's definition. Obviously, the vaccine has to be reworked, but Brandon the dummy already bought billions of the worthless vaccines.
It is hilarious to see the response with people and omicron. All the reports are that it is not worse than the flu and people are still freaking out.
"You need a third shot. "
"But you said I only needed two. Were you wrong last time?
"Well, yeah, but now you need three. "
"Why should I believe you? Is this going to be the last one?

"Yes but side effects are rare. "
"Well, okay, but if I get hurt and cannot work, I get compensated right?
"Uh, no, you do not get shit. Everyone has immunity. "

Here's what I wrote in Salon in *2010 (:
The primary tactic in this game is Villain Rotation. They always have a handful of Democratic Senators announce that they will be the ones to deviate this time from the ostensible party position and impede success, but the designated Villain constantly shifts, so the Party itself can claim it supports these measures while an always-changing handful of their members invariably prevent it. One minute, it's Jay Rockefeller as the Prime Villain leading the way in protecting Bush surveillance programs and demanding telecom immunity; the next minute, it's Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer joining hands and "breaking with their party" to ensure Michael Mukasey's confirmation as Attorney General; then it's Big Bad Joe Lieberman single-handedly blocking Medicare expansion; then it's Blanche Lincoln and Jim Webb joining with Lindsey Graham to support the de-funding of civilian trials for Terrorists; and now that they can't blame Lieberman or Ben Nelson any longer on health care (since they don't need 60 votes), Jay Rockefeller voluntarily returns to the Villain Role, stepping up to put an end to the pretend-movement among Senate Democrats to enact the public option via reconciliation.

Their hospitals were filled with Covid-19 patients. So filled that both states are cancelling care to other patients, like a temporary ban or slow down on bypass surgeries.
I don't know which Covid variety is filling up Maine and New Hampshire's Hospitals to full capacity.
But I would be willing to bet that the hospitalized sickies are not vaccinated democrats with breakout infection of the Omicron Variant.

Yeah, no way did anyone in the Repub Party want to be responsible for actually dealing with and being blamed for what would have happened in its absence. So McCain saved the day in the nick of time for his Party.
But BBB is different. For one thing it isn't over. If Manchin knows his poorly educated "conservative" constituents as well as most Repubs do, he knows he can make a big show of opposing it now and then come back to vote for a slightly adjusted version of the same thing and his "conservative" constituents will be too stupid to know it even happened.
And, as great as passing BBB would be for America, Biden and the Dems have already passed more positive results legislation this first year, recovered and expanded the USA economy beyond anything multiple Repub presidencies combined ever did or could do. I mean, how many millions more jobs and how much higher wages should we expect from them in just the first year of the historic gains in the Biden presidency?
Aside from that, it is the Repub Party that stands to be most disappointed if BBB is really over.
Assuming the first midterm election in this new presidency turns out the way most do for the party in the WH and especially for the Dems as is known happens after they pass historically positive legislation destined to be the most revered and appreciated by Americans, the Do Nothing Repubs were donning lobster bibs and licking their lips in anticipation for the Dems to pass such an obviously great for America very long term legislation without a single Repub shouldering any of the heavy lifting or assuming the slightest political risk for it. Then they could swoop in to take control of Congress afterwarss and declare totally unearned and undeserved credit for the spectacularly positive results that would surely follow.
Just like the Do Nothing Repubs always try to do. But a failure of some meaningful version of BBB to pass before November 2022 puts a damper on their pattern.

Only Moderna would be approved today and that was with Delta. With Omicron, none of the vaccines work. Hell, you have organization after organization with 95+% people vaccinated, and everyone hit with Covid.
As for the Democrat-Republican schtick you are doing: the vaccines Trump developed for alpha corona worked great. Delta and Omicron hit and Biden's response was just bullying people into taking the same vaccines that do not even work by the FDA's definition. Obviously, the vaccine has to be reworked, but Brandon the dummy already bought billions of the worthless vaccines.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2641326]I think we should all be a bit sad today. Biden's Build Back Better bill has been stalled. I was so looking forward to this fantastic legislation that was opposed by so many because we did not understand like Eihtooms. I was crying in my beer. I so wanted the BBB present for Christmas.
Can you imagine how many out there are preying for Manchin to change his mind or scheming for his undoing?
But it does not matter. The article of the day is here: [URL]https://www.salon.com/2010/02/23/democrats_34/[/URL].
The author of the article is liberal Glenn Greenwald and he followed up this 12 year old story with this tweet: That it's all Joe Manchin's fault, that the Good and Compassionate Democrats would have done such great things for America's poor and working class if not for this sole Bad Senator, is the game they always play. Here's what I wrote in Salon in *2010 (:
The primary tactic in this game is Villain Rotation. They always have a handful of Democratic Senators announce that they will be the ones to deviate this time from the ostensible party position and impede success, but the designated Villain constantly shifts, so the Party itself can claim it supports these measures while an always-changing handful of their members invariably prevent it. One minute, it's Jay Rockefeller as the Prime Villain leading the way in protecting Bush surveillance programs and demanding telecom immunity; the next minute, it's Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer joining hands and "breaking with their party" to ensure Michael Mukasey's confirmation as Attorney General; then it's Big Bad Joe Lieberman single-handedly blocking Medicare expansion; then it's Blanche Lincoln and Jim Webb joining with Lindsey Graham to support the de-funding of civilian trials for Terrorists; and now that they can't blame Lieberman or Ben Nelson any longer on health care (since they don't need 60 votes), Jay Rockefeller voluntarily returns to the Villain Role, stepping up to put an end to the pretend-movement among Senate Democrats to enact the public option via reconciliation.[/QUOTE]Great post but I want to add one thing. I think several democrat senators are secretary grateful for not passing the disaster BBB bill. It would have added to inflation and was an economic disaster. With Manchin killing this horrible bill some democrats may be able to retain their seat next year. For Biden it is just another failure on his list of many this year. Worst president ever already.

In a poll taken by the University of Wyoming that was released in late October 2021.
Liz Cheney was beating her nearest GOP rival, Lynette Grey Bull, by 30 points (58% to 28%) for the single seat that Wyoming has in the House of Representatives.
Wyoming had its primary recently, and she beat Bull 68.7% to 24.6%.

South Carolina House member Jim Clyburn has been doing things right for a long time.
His granddaughter was planning to get married last weekend.
A strict rule to the family was that everybody planning to attend the wedding, needed to get tested for Covid shortly before the planned nuptials.
81 year-old Rep. Jim Clyburn was fully vaccinated, even got his booster shot more than a month ago.
If he would have asked to not bother getting tested, I'm sure the family would have gladly waived him in.
If he decided to not bother getting tested, but just lie and say he did, he could have seen his granddaughter's grand ceremony. Just like how TrumpShit lied so he could lose his debate against Joe Biden on 9/29/20 after testing positive.
Jim Clyburn loves his family, and would do just about anything in his power to care for them.
So he got his 81 year-old ass tested, like all of his other intelligent loving family members did.
They all were surprised when the 81 year old vaccinated and boosted man received a positive result on his covid test. So Jim Clyburn missed his granddaughter's wedding. My guess is they probably zoomed him in or a similar treatment.
From quarantine, representative Clyburn has been telling people he feels fine. No bad symptoms because the vaccinations work.
Reminds me that Herman Caine's Covid message about how he and his leader were dealing with Covid had an ending, just not a happy ending.

It was estimated that there were 9.5 million children living in poverty in 2019 in the United States.

That's right folks. Staffers in the Biden administration started an Internet rumor several weeks ago that the COVID vaccine prevents Critical Race Theory. As a result, red state vaccination rates instantly skyrocketed.

You realize, right, that inflation is worldwide, not just in the US. The US is high, but so is inflation almost everywhere.

As to the "why" of inflation, Fux "news" seems to forget that we have been in the middle of a pandemic for almost two years.

Gee, was Trump's poll rating on how he handled the Obama economy he did nothing but coast on up to this point in his presidency since it was on one of the best economic growth trajectories of all time really better than Biden's after Biden inherited from Trump the worst economic conditions and trajectory in about 100 years and is still suffering from one variant after another of Trump's Pandemic Virus?

Matt Taibbi did a great piece on Loudron County Virginia, the county that gave the Republicans victory in the governor's race. The Democratic douche method of describing critical race theory is that Republicans are so stupid they cannot define what it is. I will. It is racism against whites.
This is a product of CRT, the 8 white identities: [URL]https://nypost.com/2021/02/16/nyc-public-school-asks-parents-to-reflect-on-their-whiteness/[/URL].
What is hilarious about this is that even Bill Maher could not defend it: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pabbzNjZ2s[/URL].
I first learned of this crazy ass shit watching South Park and PC Principal with his talk of check your privilege and microaggressions. I thought it was a fucking gag. My jaw dropped when I learned it actually was being taught in schools.
So Taibbi does a good write up on what is going on and how brain dead the school board has been. It got so bad that clapping yes fucking clapping was banned by the school board at a meeting of adults.
But that does not explain the anger. Fox News made a big deal about a parent who was treated like crap for not being trans sensitive after his kid was sodomized by a trannie, but that could be blown off as one incident.
But you could distill the anger down to one video it would be right here. I cannot believe this was shown in schools: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX_Vzl-r8NY[/URL].
It is the most racist piece of trash I have ever seen, and parents you know should have no say on what their kids are taught at school and the parents who do object should be treated as terrorists.

Name a seriously positive result from legislation proposed and passed by Republicans in the past 100 years. Even if you can conjure up something one can vaguely remember or find in a trivia pursuit search, it couldn't possibly offset the horrific results of The Great Repub Depression, the 3 Eisenhower Recessions, Nixon's Long National Nightmare, Reagan's Great Repub Recession, Bush1's long Recession, Bush2's first Recession and 2nd Great Bush2 Repub Recession, Trump's Pandemic, Great Repub Recession, Supply-Chain Destruction and consequent Record High Inflation.
It has already been shown that Biden has created in just his first 10 months in office three times the number of USA jobs created by the previous three Repub presidents combined! But it is even worse for Repubs than that; I submit the known data shows all of the Repub presidents combined since Abraham Lincoln, the first one, have lost more USA jobs than they have created.
A 164 year old political party cannot possibly rack up that dreadful a record of results without it either being intentional or the product of the absolutely dumbest politicians on the planet.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2643009]The fact that Fux "News" ratings are high just means that Abraham Lincoln was right: You [B]can[/B] fool some of the people all of the time.[/QUOTE]The reason Fox News ratings are high is because people watch Fox News. The reason CNN fake news ratings are in the tank is because no one watches it. CNN thought they could fool the fools forever but they were wrong.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2643069]Only the democrats fabricate lies to try to change history. Continuing this trend of lies defines who you are. A habitual liar. Lies don't replace reality so you gain absolutely nothing with your lies.[/QUOTE]It looks like Cali doesn't know (biiiiig surprise, right?) that the regime that ran Germany 80-some-odd years ago used the German word for "fake news" quite frequently. But he calls me a liar because I have the cojones to point it out.
Of course, he says it is all lies. None of the rightwingnut propaganda sites have ever mentioned that this happened. And, since he views all "fact checks" as "fake news" too, this is understandable. I doubt that the rightwingnut propaganda sites that wingers get their "news" from have ever mentioned that the Holocaust happened either. Have those same sites even mentioned that WWII happened? Probably not. And if they did, they probably posited that the regimes the allies fought weren't fascists.
That's why it is so easy to be a Republican. Truth is a lie, up is down, right is left and front is back and the only facts that are acceptable are alternative ones. They need more tinfoil for their headgear.

BTW, MSNBC competes against its own parent company's regular national broadcast network news program, see above, for ratings.
Does FUX News Channel have a regular national broadcast network news program to compete against its cable news program as well as the other regular national broadcast network news programs for ratings? Nope. But they could have one if they wanted one. You know, try to shift some of those millions and millions of news viewers and much greater ad revenue from NBC, ABS and CBS to their side.
But no. FUX does not have a regular national broadcast network news program. If they had one they could not get away with the horseshit lies they spread on their cable news programs without constantly contradicting their own national broadcast network news program, which would be legally forbidden to spread them.
And FUX News Channel's highest rated programs would then probably drop to well below 500,000 viewers.
Therefore, they don't dare have one.
ABC World News Tonight is not far behind NBC Nightly News with 8.3 million viewers.
Even the lowest rated regular national broadcast network news program, CBC Evening News, whips FUX News Channel's butt handily in the ratings with 5. 3 million viewers. That's almost double FUX's highest rated program and more than double most of their other fake news programs.
So you tell us; FUX News Channel's ratings vs their stated competition and adversary are puny because America is not buying FUX's lies and does not want to be fooled by them, right?

Even though I have not yet researched it, I'm guessing Trump's 2nd presidential year (2018) holiday season retail sales results were not as good as this first one under Biden either since the first of Trump's two Bear Market Crashes was raging in December of that year.
Therefore, it is for sure Sleepy Joe's first holiday season sales results were better than anything Trump touched with his disastrous economic stewardship in at least 3 out of his 4 years of the worst presidency of all time and quite probably beat all 4 of them.

Then you compounded that colossal historic mistake by spending almost a year lying about the airborne risks and deadly nature of the virus that predictably emerged and mocking the known effective mitigation efforts, thereby converting a likely manageable regional endemic into the worldwide Trump's Pandemic it is today in all its current and future variants.
Meanwhile, you tried with all your powers on the world stage to discourage anyone and everyone on the planet from bothering to invent a vaccine for it or taking one if any company was foolish enough to waste their time and money inventing one.

I do not think Biden's statement was as widely reported as it should have been: "There is no federal solution. This needs to be solved at the state level."
[URL]https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/look-there-no-federal-solution-biden-backtracks-vow-shut-down-covid-19[/URL]
Again, you will have the usual nonsense, ZH? That is a right wing nut blog, but Biden said what he said.
Will Eih recant his blathering on the pandemic being Trump's fault? Nah. You can quote numbers all day long and show these brain dead Democrats that who was in office did not matter, but they still won't buy it. To me, even though Biden has thrown in the towel, these same douches still believe that all would be well with the pandemic if not for Republicans.
On the supply chain issues, though, that mess is all political, and all the blame should be directed at the Dems. First off, Obama put into law regulations that were passed like 8 years ago but are just enforced today. One of them is that truck drivers can only work 8 hour shifts, and this is sent from trucks via computer to a regulatory agency. So when you have a supply chain crisis and want to move goods: wouldn't it be smart to change that to 10 or 12 hours (which it used to be)? You would think so right? Nothing on this.
The issue in the ports are the trailers that move around the supply containers. The cranes pick up the containers off the ships, but the trailers are what move them around. Obama put in a law that trailers, even ones that were still good, could not be more than 5 years old. The problem is the pandemic interfered with production of trailers, so a lot would put out to pasture while fewer were coming in. Again, there is a pretty simple solution. Allow the older trailers to be inspected for safety and used right? Again, that is not being done.
Domestic trailer production also plummeted due to the end of Trumps tariff on Chinese trailers. Yeah, Biden just got rid of that Trump tax. It seems like a no-brainer to reinstate that tariff but that is not happening either. China is refusing to produce more trailers, and this is China fucking the USA again, and time after time, our government is unable to pivot away because we are so dependent on them.
What was done was a reshuffling the numbers. Now a ship that is further off the coast is not counted. Keep in mind there are thousands of containers on these ships. With 100 ships at 10,000 containers apiece, you are talking about one million containers at sea. That is a staggering number and it is getting worse. A million containers need to be unloaded and put onto trucks and rail. One million!
I was listing to a podcast about where there are supply issues: tennis balls, tires, and cream cheese. The other surprising one is paper. Eih touched on this and said Trump had problems selling a book because of his creating a paper shortage. Of course, that is not true.
This one is funny too. The USA is a next exporter of lumbar so how come we have a paper shortage. The environmentalist whackos have made paper production so cost prohibitive it was cheaper to move production abroad. So again, the solution is to roll things back to where there were no shortages but again for some reason this cannot be done.

That said I'll play the devil's advocate for a moment. There's a lot of different measurements when it comes to a president's economic report card. For example if you pick just one while ignoring the others, and beat that drum loud enough then voila! You have an argument, or at least a talking point. But even that doesn't tell us the sorts of jobs created under Carter. How do the numbers hash out when it comes to pay? How many part time? And if there was a recession you can just blame it on the previous guy by focusing on the negative bullet points on his economic resume. This is why so many political arguments involve talking past one another.
Also, what about "Lincoln's Civil War?" Arguably he provoked the armed conflict with his refusal to abandon Ft Sumter, even though the north had withdrawn from other southern forts. Readings of the letters home of southern soldiers reveals more of a local mindset, that they were fighting to repell an invasion with little mention of slavery. Only 25% of southern families owned slaves. Though the slavery question was the clear reason for succession as seen in the minutes of a number of state governments, so any claims that the war wasn't over that are absurd.
There were firebrands on both sides leading up to succession, as well as Constitutional questions on the legality thereof, especially considering that not one southern state supported the election of Lincoln. But since your Republican disasters go all the way back to Lincoln, tell us why you think he was responsible for the war. Should the north have just let the south go?
Happy New Year.

Again, you will have the usual nonsense, ZH? That is a right wing nut blog, but Biden said what he said.
Will Eih recant his blathering on the pandemic being Trump's fault? Nah. You can quote numbers all day long and show these brain dead Democrats that who was in office did not matter, but they still won't buy it. To me, even though Biden has thrown in the towel, these same douches still believe that all would be well with the pandemic if not for Republicans.
On the supply chain issues, though, that mess is all political, and all the blame should be directed at the Dems. First off, Obama put into law regulations that were passed like 8 years ago but are just enforced today. One of them is that truck drivers can only work 8 hour shifts, and this is sent from trucks via computer to a regulatory agency. So when you have a supply chain crisis and want to move goods: wouldn't it be smart to change that to 10 or 12 hours (which it used to be)? You would think so right? Nothing on this.
The issue in the ports are the trailers that move around the supply containers. The cranes pick up the containers off the ships, but the trailers are what move them around. Obama put in a law that trailers, even ones that were still good, could not be more than 5 years old. The problem is the pandemic interfered with production of trailers, so a lot would put out to pasture while fewer were coming in. Again, there is a pretty simple solution. Allow the older trailers to be inspected for safety and used right? Again, that is not being done..[/QUOTE]This pretty much sums up the democrats failures with no clue on how to get it back on track.

Domestic trailer production also plummeted due to the end of Trumps tariff on Chinese trailers. Yeah, Biden just got rid of that Trump tax. It seems like a no-brainer to reinstate that tariff but that is not happening either. China is refusing to produce more trailers, and this is China fucking the USA again, and time after time, our government is unable to pivot away because we are so dependent on them.
What was done was a reshuffling the numbers. Now a ship that is further off the coast is not counted. Keep in mind there are thousands of containers on these ships. With 100 ships at 10,000 containers apiece, you are talking about one million containers at sea. That is a staggering number and it is getting worse. A million containers need to be unloaded and put onto trucks and rail. One million![/QUOTE]The unvaccinated idiots (who are mostly Republican) won't get vaccinated, won't wear masks, won't socially distance, are against mandates of any kind other than mandates to [B]not[/B] wear masks, to [B]not[/B] socially distance and to [B]not[/B] get vaccinated.

Hell, I was a lazy Bothsider in those days and voted for Reagan in 1980 on the assumption that, good economy or horrific economy, I guess it's just the luck of the draw, economic cycles, whatever, it really doesn't matter which party is in control and I applied all those nuanced excuses and allowances you mentioned to my unfortunate decision.
I was wrong about that.
And, after all, in pre-Reagan 1980 we only had Great Depression Massive Jobs Destruction Hoover, Three Recessions and Horrible Jobs Creator Eisenhower and Long National Nightmare, Recession and Middling Jobs Creator Nixon and Ford to go on during modern times. The pattern had just begun.
I thought, surely the Repub Party had learned the lesson that their economic stewardship of the past was crap and it was time for serious change and improvement.
I was wrong about that.
But, good lord. By the time Reagan got his way and Crashed us into his Great Reagan / Repub Recession, the worst since the one Hoover and at least 2 Repubs before him produced and presided over, then Bush1 got his way and produced the Long Recession and his horrible jobs creation record, then Bush2 got his way and produced the Great Bush2/ Repub Recession replacing Reagan's as the worst since Hoover's and his massive jobs destruction, then Trump got his way and produced the Great Trump / Repub Recession replacing Bush2's as the worst since Hoover's and his massive jobs destruction, one can no longer cling to some idealistic, "fair and balanced", gee let's consider the nuances here before jumping to conclusions, nonsensical Bothsiderism anymore.
And the fact that no Repub has proposed, passed or presided over legislation that has produced any of the various record high boom times and historic jobs creation of the past 100 years or so further drives home the by now blatantly obvious reality that we are dealing with a 100 years long pattern that defies all possible nuance, benefit of the doubt or Bothsidersim excuses:
When Dems get their way, America wins in terms of, among other positive things, historic economic expansion, growth and record high jobs creation.
By stark contrast, when Repubs get their way, America loses in terms of severe economic downturns, Great Depressions or Great Recessions and massive jobs destruction.
I appreciate the effort to suggest there might be some interesting nuances that we ought to factor in here and there. But I submit there is no one nuance or a thousand that could possibly alter that unchangeable and iron clad above stated pattern in the past, present or future.

Yeah, Trump's cult followers will continue clog up the healthcare system with their easily avoidable hospitalizations often leading to death and thereby cause unnecessary deaths of responsible, vaccinated Americans who die for lack of timely medical attention.

President Biden may not recall what he said during a 2020 campaign debate last fall, but Americans should:
"Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America."
At the time the USA Had recorded 220,000 Covid deaths.
"If the president had done his job, had done his job from the beginning, all the people would still be alive," Mr. Biden said last fall.
So, what happened when Joe-Biden-The-Science-Guy stepped in?
352,000 Americans died of / from COVID in 2020 under Trump (without vaccines available).
474,000 American died of / from COVID in 2021 under Biden (with vaccines available).
As WSJ notes, we recount all this not to blame Mr. Biden for this year's Covid deaths. The truth last year and this year is that the virus is impossible for any politician to control, much less eliminate.
Mr. Biden used the illusion he could vanquish the virus to win election, and he is now paying a political price because he hasn't.
And the claim that the vaccines saved lives looks pretty dubious as well.
Given the douche red-blue comparison, which is all the Democratic douches have left, let me do another. California has 134,000 deaths per million, and Nigeria has 1,000 deaths per million so Nigeria has politicians and health care systems 100 X better than California.
So Brandon do you have an answer for this and how bad California is doing?
"There is no federal solution. This gets solved at a state level."
Don't you mean at an African level? What did Nigeria say about why things are so good there? Uh, Brandon, I mean Biden. Oops, sorry he is asleep.
Oh he woke up. "Mr. President, let's go Brandon."

[B]New Studies Raise Hopes That Vaccines Prevent Severe Disease From Omicron.
In the lab, immune cells put up a strong fight against Omicron, suggesting that vaccines will be able to prevent the worst outcomes of the virus variant.[/B]

Of course, many of FUX News Channel's regular viewers they convinced not to get vaccinated won't be around to enjoy these outcomes anyway. Oh well. The much, much larger viewership of MSNBC, CNBC and NBC Nightly News will be.[/QUOTE]Yes oil production will go up in 2022 thanks to Biden. Biden first executive order tried to kill the oil industry and drilling stopped so oil production went down 1,000,000 barrels a day. Creating a shortage. Biden policies doubled oil prices and now with oil prices double and Biden reversing his executive order on drilling permits the drilling will increase. It will increase back to 12,000,000 barrels per day as it was in Trump presidency. But USA consumers are paying the price with $4-5 gas. Only people not hurt is the ones like us that bought oil stocks when Biden crippled the industry.

My finance guys are getting ready to say we have a hit a top. One said 5% inflation would kill the market, and we are there. There was a belief that the Fed could print up all this money and not cause inflation. Wrong.
Anyway, predicting the market is lower in 2022 is more on the Fed than anything else, but I am 90% sure it will be down in 2022.
So if the market is down in 2022, are you douches going to own that, or you going to blame it on Trump? Like we do not already know.
Brandon's Covid totals are horrible, and I think the WSJ was being charitable in saying it was not Brandon's fault but the fault of the virus but Biden campaigned on it a declining virus total.
If the number of Covid cases was half of what it was in 2020, you would be shouting about how great Biden is. Now that it is markedly higher, it is not the virus nor China nor Biden's fault, somehow all the 2021 deaths were on Trump.
Do you get how stupid that makes you look? Any good number is due to Biden, and bad one is on Trump. I do not know why you guys even post this crap anymore. It makes you look like asses.
So if we give Biden credit the market is up in 2021, and the market goes down in 2022, can we all agree that said market decline is on Biden?
[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2645065]Sigh. Here are the facts.
President Biden may not recall what he said during a 2020 campaign debate last fall, but Americans should:
"Anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America."
At the time the USA Had recorded 220,000 Covid deaths.
"If the president had done his job, had done his job from the beginning, all the people would still be alive," Mr. Biden said last fall.
So, what happened when Joe-Biden-The-Science-Guy stepped in?
352,000 Americans died of / from COVID in 2020 under Trump (without vaccines available).
474,000 American died of / from COVID in 2021 under Biden (with vaccines available).
As WSJ notes, we recount all this not to blame Mr. Biden for this year's Covid deaths. The truth last year and this year is that the virus is impossible for any politician to control, much less eliminate.[/QUOTE]Trump is still responsible for creating Trump's Pandemic in all its past, current and future variants and every death from it going all the way back to when he paved the way for it to happen in 2018 against all expert advice and warnings not to do something so stupid and dangerous and every disastrous decision of his through 2020.
Biden's accurate statement still stands; Trump was and still is "responsible" for all the deaths, Biden is "responsible" for none of them.

It is a rare pleasure when a Winger-leaning Mainstream Media source simply states the obvious and thereby acknowledges not just one but two Democratic Party Presidents' historic superior economic results.
Notice; "going back to Carter."
Biden's Economic Performance Has Proved Unbeatable.
No first-year president going back to Carter comes close to matching the current White House occupants No. 1 or No. 2 ranking in each of 10 key measures.
https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-12-20/president-biden-s-economic-performance-has-proved-unbeatable
[QUOTE]U.S. financial markets are outperforming the world by the biggest margin in the 21st century, and with good reason: Americas economy improved more in Joe Biden's first 12 months than any president during the past 50 years notwithstanding the contrary media narrative contributing to dour public opinion.
...
All of which makes Biden's first year in the White House the standout among the seven previous presidents, based on 10 market and economic indicators given equal weight. According to data compiled by Bloomberg, no one comes close to matching Biden's combination of No. 1 and No. 2 rankings for each of the measures:
Gross domestic product (1)
Profit growth (1)
S&P 500 performance (2)
Consumer credit (1)
Non-farm payrolls (2)
Manufacturing jobs (2)
Business productivity (2)
Dollar appreciation (2)
S&P 500 relative performance (2)
...
GDP growth in every incoming administration during the past four decades never exceeded 2.74% until 2021. Biden is now positioned to surpass Carter (5.01%) as the GDP champion of presidents since 1976.[/QUOTE]Or, as Repubs and fake FUX News anchors would put it, "Biden and the Dems further destroying America"!

Mr. Biden used the illusion he could vanquish the virus to win election, and he is now paying a political price because he hasn't.[/QUOTE]You obviously have forgotten the timeline here.
Who was president when schools were closed, many places of business were closed, etc? The former guy. Therefore, it must be your contention that all of the measures put into place during his administration worked, right? Lockdowns obviously worked, yet I distinctly remember you and the other Republicans on this board saying that lockdowns didn't work.
Which is it? Since there were fewer deaths under the former guy (when we were locked down), lockdowns clearly worked, didn't they?
Biden figured (wrongly, of course) that once vaccines were made available, everybody would take them. Democrats did. Independents did. But hard-core turmpers refused which is why the vast majority of unvaccinated are trumpers.
And since you claim that the vaccines don't work, who was president when the vaccines were developed? Who should shoulder the blame if the vaccines don't work?

Is California still a Republican state? California has had twice as many people die in 2021 than in 2020 without the vaccine. With California voting 70 per cent democrat I would assume more democrats are dying in California than Republicans. Obviously what Biden and Newsome have done it was twice as bad as Trump. One of the headlines on yahoo this morning.
NBC News: Vaccine mistrust, variants and multiple case and death spikes all plagued headlines in 2021. Even though vaccines became widely available for people ages 5 and older, along with booster shots for the 16 and older population, California still saw an increase in COVID-19 cases and deaths this year compared to last year.
As of Thursday, California reported more than 2. 8 million cases and nearly 50,000 deaths in 2021. By Dec. 31,2020, there were more than 2. 2 million cases and 25,000 deaths reported, according to the COVID Tracking Project.
Just this week, California became the first state to surpass 5 million total COVID-19 cases in the United States.

The good news is, despite the sad fact that you have been suckered for decades by Mainstream Media lying about that to help their darling Repubs win elections, as of this day you now know the truth and can never be suckered by them in that way again.

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2645689]Is California still a Republican state? California has had twice as many people die in 2021 than in 2020 without the vaccine. With California voting 70 per cent democrat I would assume more democrats are dying in California than Republicans. Obviously what Biden and Newsome have done it was twice as bad as Trump. One of the headlines on yahoo this morning.
NBC News: Vaccine mistrust, variants and multiple case and death spikes all plagued headlines in 2021. Even though vaccines became widely available for people ages 5 and older, along with booster shots for the 16 and older population, California still saw an increase in COVID-19 cases and deaths this year compared to last year.
As of Thursday, California reported more than 2. 8 million cases and nearly 50,000 deaths in 2021. By Dec. 31,2020, there were more than 2. 2 million cases and 25,000 deaths reported, according to the COVID Tracking Project.
Just this week, California became the first state to surpass 5 million total COVID-19 cases in the United States.[/QUOTE]The G. O. P.

Eleven months into Biden's Presidency, the bottom line is that the Republican war on Biden's legitimacy and the war on Biden's covid policies are now inextricably linked. The consequences of this are so hard to contemplate that we often do not do so: a politics so broken that it is now killing Americans on an industrial scale.
Think about this for a minute. Republicans are so intent on wanting Biden to fail that they are literally killing themselves in the effort. Talk about fools.

I know that the rightwingnuts on this board will try to spin this every which way but correctly, but the proof is in the results. Especially the overall ones as listed below. The average market performance, since Hoover are: Republicans -1.2%, Democrats +14.2%.
But the wingers, of course, will say something else.[/QUOTE]And, bear in mind, the inarguable, verifiable record of results on all important economic metrics would favor Democrats and damn Republicans even more if the consistent pattern wasn't Dems taking over from Repubs in the midst of the latest typical Great Repub Depression / Recession and Massive Jobs Destruction vs Repubs taking over from Dems in the midst of Great Dem Recoveries / Expansions and Historic Jobs Gains.
That consistent near 100 years long pattern ensures that the incoming Dem's overall score will be unfairly and undeservedly lowered by the total downturn crap the Repub just dumped into the system on the way out while the incoming Repub's overall score will be unfairly and undeservedly elevated by the historic gains and positive economic trajectory taking place when he strolled into the White House.
The most notable instances of that pattern negatively effecting the Dem's overall score were Carter, Clinton, Obama and Biden. LOL. Yes, all of the Dems of the past 50 years covered in that Bloomberg overview.
Yet their overall scores still beat the Repubs on the important metrics.
The most notable examples of Repubs coasting on the outgoing Dem's remarkably positive trajectories and then Crashing the economy soon after getting their way over the same 50 years were Reagan, Bush2 and Trump.
The only Repub during that 50 year timeline who could not coast on the outgoing Dem's positive trajectory for a while and unfairly and undeservedly apply those results to his overall score was Bush1. And that's because he didn't take over from a Dem! Consequently, without even that going for him, Bush1's overall scores are near the bottom and among the worst of all time.

Don't accept Social Security.
Don't accept Medicare.
Don't accept Medicaid.
If you are on these programs currently, send back your Social Security checks and cancel Medicare / Medicaid.
If you are one of the few that have gotten vaccinated, write a large check to your local government to pay for the cost of the vaccine and the cost to administer it.
If you have kids that go to public school, disenroll them immediately and start writing checks to a private school.
Avoid all public beaches, parks, recreational areas, libraries, etc since these are all "socialist" programs paid with somebody else's money.
Be sure to write a check to reimburse the government for minimum wage, maximum hour and child labor law enforcement.
Also write a check to pay for farm and energy subsidies.
Drive only on toll roads.
Do not call 911 or use other public services unless you plan to pay for them for services rendered.
If you don't do these, and other things, you are a hypocrite. Just like the former guy. Just like every Republican politician who voted against the infrastructure bill but went home and told their constituents how they "brought home the bacon".

Biden's first year Stock Market return as measured by the industry standard S&P 500 Index was 28.7% (the report on total return including dividends will come later).
That surpasses Trump's first year return of 21.8%.
It surpasses even more Trump's average annual return of 16.8%.
Anybody think Trump's average annual returns were "unfairly" lowered because his disastrous economic decision to lay the groundwork for a deadly viral spread to emerge unmonitored, unprevented and improperly responded to in 2018, lie about its risks, mock the known mitigation measures and discourage any effort to invent or take a vaccine for it from the beginning and thereby create his worldwide economy and market destroying Trump's Pandemic most notably through his final year in office screwed up an otherwise magnificent Stock Market return record, the measure of "economic success" Trump revered most?
Well, you'd be wrong about that.

The people who still cling to this idea that "the polls" were wrong in 2020 are apparently the suckers that Team Trump and the Repubs were targeting to fall for that crap during the brief window between election night and several days later when all the ballots were counted including the record number and percentage of mail-in ballots submitted in the midst of Trump's Pandemic.
LOL. That was the whole purpose in Repubs preventing all those mail-in ballots from being counted prior to election night and in some cases even on election night in all those states with Repub legislatures; to allow for a few days' delay in producing the final true results wherein Trump could work his con magic to sucker his cult followers and rubes into accepting his Big Lie about the election being stolen from him.
And that was the basis for his and Team Trump's plans to overthrow American democracy legally or illegally, by hook or by crook over the next couple of months and, failing that, which they did, to incite a violent Insurrection to prevent the peaceful transfer of power no later than the day those Electoral Votes would be formally recorded on January 6, 2021. Which is exactly why January 6 was definitely not a matter of just a few radical nuts getting out of control. Nope. They were Trumpsters, Repub cult followers, being prepared, primed and controlled by Trump to do exactly what they did on his behalf going back to at least November 3 and technically even earlier than that.

I along with other people who had smart financial advisors and money bought oil stocks that went up 30-85 per cent. Stock market was up 17 per cent but leader was oil stocks. The fools scoffed at the oil industry and the smart made millions on the oil industry last year.

Our firm is one of the 3 biggest in USA and we get research weekly. They are not always right and some advisors don't do the research but we have an incredible record.[/QUOTE]Great report. Pretty much sums up what my financial advisors have told me the last year. I use 2 of the 3 biggest firms in USA with 2/3 in one and 1/3 in the other. Both of them would agree with you totally. I use 2 firms because each firm offers different funds to give me more flexibility. Interesting enough about the market is that until 2007 the markets did a little better under democrat presidency than republican presidents but changed when Obama became president. Markets were stable but stagnant under Obama.
Thanks, Joe, Nancy, Chuck and the Dems.

It does not matter. Your ilk is determined to not have Trump run for president. You all have done all you can to undermine the Democratic process and to prevent him from serving as president and did all you could so he would not serve again.
You guys think January 6 was worse than 9-11 when no one died on 1-6. WTF? To me, this just shows how the media is tied in with the swamp like it was with all the other BS from the CIA and FBI. Russiagate, Ukrainegate, and 1-6 are all the same to me. As Matt Taibbi said, the Hunter Biden laptop story was not that some sleazeball was pedaling influence for dollars and fucking underage women and doing drugs but for the first time ever, the whole incident was banned from the lamestream media.
Your claim of cultist worship miss the fucking point. None of us are in love with Trump, but he is the only one we trust to at least take a whack at the big tech-media-Democrat-swamp alliance. I even have talked to fellow Republicans who have told me they hope Biden hangs on because the one thing they absolutely do not want more than anything is President Kamala Harris. Given how Biden can seemingly never put together a complete sentence IMO the attacks on him have been mild. We all know the guy is not all there.
So Trump will win in 2024 if nothing else due to the fucking censorship you douches have been advocating. WTF is up with that?
Trump should have had more people watching the ballots and he will next time. There was no cheating in 2020 but this time we are going to make sure there is really no cheating in 2022 and 2024 not that cheating had an effect on the election (cough, cough). So my take on things is Trump lost the election because he saw it could be stolen and did not take enough action to prevent that.
I am not the cultist you think I am and maybe in 2028 you guys can come with a candidate with all his facilities present that I might consider voting for. The only presidential vote I regret in my life was for Dole in 1996 over Clinton. I voted for Obama in 2008 and still would. Quite frankly, the country is at its best when you have two leaders who are super intelligent going at each other. This country had the most prosperity then when Clinton was president and Gingrich ruled Congress.
And now we have fossils like Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer. No wonder our economy has gone to shit. So tell me PV, when have you voted for a Republican?

In fact it rarely gives credit for good or bad in the market to any administration. The market increased dramatically in 2017,2018 and 2029 when Trump reversed a lot of Obama regulations especially for energy industry and financial industry. By end of 2019 China virus hit the world and business stopped in USA and the world. After a bleak 2020 and 3 vaccines hitting consumers in late 2020 it was expected that the market would stabilize and return to the gains made from 2017-2019 and it did. Since the new virus is less deadly than the last the market is stable. No credit is given to current administration. With the BBB virtually non existent now and Biden facing an election year our firm is expecting stable market. Most of my clients are 401 k and retirement funds so last 5 years have been extremely good. Once Biden tried destroying the oil industry we saw an increased opportunity for our clients in oil stocks once the administration drove down production and drove up oil and gas prices. Our average return on the energy side for oil was 68 per cent. For the wealthy and middle class who funded their 401 K to the max 2021 was a good year. It is an election year and the democrats are going to try to jam some socialist program or green program through but we do not expect that to happen.

Aside from his historic 2018 CDC defunding disaster and his incomparable contributions to creating Trump's Pandemic in the first place, you do remember that Trump's lamebrained policies slammed the USA Manufacturing and Agro sector, right? Gee, we're all happy that he further subsidized the oil and energy sectors. Those poor dears need all the additional subsidies and corporate welfare they can get.
Meanwhile, thanks to his zero gain trade war against China, Trump had to send more Socialist welfare checks to USA Farmers just to keep them afloat:

1 person was killed (a protestor) but 4 others died, one from an overdose and 3 from natural causes so let's skip over the deaths. You conveniently forgot to mention that 138 police officers were injured.

[QUOTE]From Gallup comes news that its regular polling on party affiliation shows the largest quarterly gap in major party affiliation since 2012, with 49 percent of U.S. adults identifying themselves as either Democrats (30 percent) or as Democratic-leaning independents (19 percent), while 40 percent call themselves Republicans (25 percent) or Republican-leaning independents (15 percent).[/QUOTE]Yes, these reports were about 9 months ago and a lot has happened in the past 9 months. But the underlying reasons for that major shift have only become more stark.
So when you see the polls of the past few months, it is worth noting if the polling service simply surveyed a roughly equal number of self-identified Dems, Repubs and Independents. If they did, then they were probably way over-sampling "Repub-leaning" respondents, which is a significantly smaller percentage of the American public and voters than those who are "Dem-leaning."

Since you know nothing about investing I will try to explain to you that when someone's portfolio is up 68-80 per cent in 4 years of Trump presidencies their is no other side to it. Their net worth has gone up 68-80 percent. There has not been a crash in the last 20 years. Their have been corrections in the market for extraordinary reasons but to someone that has some knowledge they look at those corrections as opportunities. My clients make more money after a correction which is proven over the last 50 years. You stick to your government handout and I will stick to making my clients millions.

Really, you guys should have gone with the Wall Street and financial industry standard for measuring the USA Stock market, the S&P 500 Index, instead of the DOW, which is the darling of typically lazy and far less informed and involved financial media. See, the lazy and far less informed financial media, the ones you guys apparently watch on tv and think that makes you "financial advisors", love the DOW because those 30 stocks provide of a lot of exciting volatility to report on every day. But real financial advisors and those involved daily in the canyons of Wall Street more properly refer to the S&P 500 Index for their measure. Just FYI.[/QUOTE]The Dow publishes their numbers. Go to the Dow sight. Not rocket science. You can find anything on the internet to contradict everything. Slick charts? Are you kidding? Why do you keep trying to deceive everyone?

[URL]https://www.kiplinger.com/investing/602714/best-and-worst-presidents-according-to-the-stock-market[/URL][/QUOTE]You know, I have to comment that Kiplinger being part of financial media, it is not immune from the usual pretzel twisting all Mainstream Media puts itself through to make Repubs look like "winners" in the face of their typical economic and stock market disastrous failures as well as trying to make Dems look like "losers" in the face of their typical economic and stock market great successes.
Case in point is how they spin Trump's stock market performance. The black highlights are mine.
[QUOTE]Donald Trump's presidency was far from calm, and you could say the same for the stock market during his tenure. [b]Equities just barely managed to avoid bear-market territory in Q4 2018[/b], then ended up rallying for more than a year before suffering a dramatic (albeit quick) bear market in 2020.
Even then, Trump still managed to finish his single term as one of the top presidents by market performance, which was fueled in part by his Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. However, that performance also included a wild rally after Election Day 2020.
[b]"The S&P 500 gained 11.8% in price from Election Day on November 3, 2020 through January 15, 2021 in what is now on track to become the best Election-to-Inauguration Day return for a first-term president since WWII," writes Sam Stovall, Chief Investment Strategist for CFRA, referring to Biden's pre-inauguration bump. "John F. Kennedy came in second with an 8.8% price rise, while Eisenhower was third with 6.3%. Conversely, Presidents Obama, Bush-43, and Nixon endured declines of 19.9%, 6.2%, and 1.4%, respectively."[/b][/QUOTE]First of all, the broad USA Stock market did not "manage to avoid bear-market territory in Q4 2018. " I have been pointing out that the broad USA Stock market experienced 2 Bear Market Crashes defined as a decline of 20% or more from a recent high during Trump's 4 year presidency and I am right. Sorry, Kiplinger, but the broadest USA Stock market Index of all, The Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, so named because it represents the "total" USA Stock market and not just the 30 stocks in the DOW or the 500 stocks in the S&P 500 Index, closed at 30,462. 49 on September 20,2018 and then closed at 24,151. 43 on December 24,2018. That is a decline from the recent high of 20.73%, also known as a Bear Market Crash.
And that first of his two Bear Market Crash declines began just 9 months after his god-awful waste of $2.5+ Trillion added to the deficit Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed and passed, something Kiplinger seems to think contributed to his ok stock market results. Oh please.
I would put the URL for the Yahoo! Finance Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index link right here for you to click on "Historical Data, Historical Prices" and put in those dates or a few days before and after them to see for yourselves. But there is some weird glitch going on with this site and when I do that the URL is huge. Like half a page. LOL. So just do a Google Search for that and it is easy to find.
And, second, check out how they try to make it appear as though "the best Election-to-Inauguration Day return for a first-term president since WWII" was some feather to put in Trump's cap! LOL. They are referring to the great rally after Biden won the 2020 election!
Now, I am not a believer in attributing anything that happens in the economy or the stock market to an incoming president starting on election day or inauguration day. Primarily because both of those metrics have never significantly changed the trajectory they were already on for months or years prior to those dates. What happens immediately after election day with a new incoming president has practically nothing to do with the person who won and who has not done anything yet.
OK, so a big decision is about to be made on an election day. Therefore, as usual anytime a big decision is about to be made or an important bit of news is about to be reported like the Jobs Numbers, a Fed Decision, an Election and so on, stock market investors hang back for often significant amounts of time prior to the decision being made or news reported and then once the decision is made they celebrate that the world did not come to an end after all and they simply resume either the buying or selling they were doing prior to the election period but with slightly more enthusiasm, trying to catch up. That is all that happens.
Those two trajectories didn't change notably starting on election day when FDR won, when Reagan won or when Obama won. They sure as hell weren't going to change significantly when Trump won in 2016 and were not likely to go nuts just because Biden won in 2020. Mainstream Media would have been working very hard to prevent that latter event from happening anyway. In the midst of Trump's Pandemic, Biden had to actually start doing something and passing some very important and effective economic stimulus for that to happen. He did and it happened.
And so I am sticking to that opinion and judgement even though it obviously helps Trump's overall record on the stock market to have benefitted from that historic stock market rally that started right after he was soundly defeated in a Trump-defined landslide election win for Joe Biden. Besides, all three of the most recent Dem presidents beat Trump's average annual stock market performance anyway.

The most famous guy there, the one with the weird buffalo hat, who sat on Nancy Pelosi's throne was actively talking with a cop in the room.
The FBI did the Russiagate thing which is something you douches still believe is true. Putin fixed the election! What other reason could there be? Then there was Ukrainegate and now the Capitol thing, and all because Trump had the balls to call out the swamp.
So we have fuckers like Fauci in office, highest paid government worker there is, shilling for vaccine / drug companies, and there is this never ending rotation of people from government into the private sector. That is why Loudon county in Virginia is the richest in America, the selling of political influence. The average voter is completely tuned out.
And you make it out like some fringe faction thinks the election was stolen when 47% of Americans including 30% of Democrats think it was. I knew Georgia was going Dems in the senate race after I saw what happened there in the presidential election. It was a no-brainer.
My take on the whole thing was fighting it was a waste of time. No judge even the gutless Supreme Court was going to take this on. They were bashed just for following the law in Florida for GW Bush. And now if you do not watch the videos of police actively assisting protestors, you are delusional. This was every bit as staged as Russiagate was.
It does not matter. Your ilk is determined to not have Trump run for president. You all have done all you can to undermine the Democratic process and to prevent him from serving as president and did all you could so he would not serve again..[/QUOTE]You asked when have I voted for a Republican. Since my first vote in 1972, I have voted for non-Republicans exactly twice (that means 2 times). The first time (1) was in 1996 when I voted for Ross Perot. The second (2) time was in 2008 when I voted for Obama. I have only not voted once in 2016. So one might say that I am a card-carrying Republican.
But one thing separates me from the current cult. I have a brain. I can see that the current Republican party is a cult. If a legislator doesn't knuckle under and kiss the former guy's butt, they get cancelled. If you don't believe in all of the cockamamie conspiracy theories, you are ostracized. The current Republican party are a bunch of fascists, racists, bullies, dummies and con men (and women).

"Madam Vice President, fellow Americans. To state the obvious, one year ago today, in this sacred place, democracy was attacked. Simply attacked. The will of the people was under assault. The Constitution, our constitution, faced the gravest of threats.
Outnumbered in the face of a brutal attack, Capitol Police, the DC Metropolitan Police Department, the National Guard and other brave law enforcement officials saved the rule of law.
Our democracy held. We the people endured. We the people prevailed.
For the first time in our history, a president had not just lost an election; he tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power as a violent mob breached the Capitol. But they failed. They failed.
And on this day of remembrance we must make sure that such an attack never, ever happens again. I'm speaking to you today from Statuary Hall in the United States Capitol. This is where the House of Representatives met for 50 years in the decades leading up to the Civil War.
It is on this floor where a young congressman from Illinois, Abraham Lincoln, sat at desk 191. Above him above us over that door leading into the rotunda is a sculpture depicting Clio, the muse of history. In her hands, an open book in which she records the events taking place in this chamber below. Clio stood watch over this hall one year ago today, as she has for more than 200 years.
She recorded what took place. The real history. The real facts. The real truth. The facts and the truth that Vice President Harris just shared and that you and I and the whole world saw with our own eyes.
The Bible tells us that 'We shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free. ' We shall know the truth. Well, here is the God's truth about January 6, 2021.
Close your eyes. Go back to that day. What do you see? Rioters rampaging. Waving, for the first time inside this Capitol, the Confederate flag that symbolizes the cause to destroy America. To rip us apart.
Even during the Civil War that never, ever happened. But it happened here in 2021. What else do you see? The mob breaking windows, kicking in doors, breaching the Capitol. American flags on poles being used as weapons, as spears.
Fire extinguishers being thrown at the heads of police officers. A crowd that professes their love for law enforcement assaulted those police officers. Dragged them, sprayed them, stomped on them. Over 140 police officers were injured.
We all heard the police officers who were there that day testify to what happened. One officer called it "a medieval battle" and that he was more afraid that day than he was fighting the war in Iraq. They've repeatedly asked since that day, how dare anyone, anyone, diminish, belittle or deny the hell they were put through? We saw with our own eyes. Rioters menaced these halls, threatening life of the Speaker of the House, literally erecting gallows to hang the Vice President of the United States of America.
But what did we not see? We didn't see a former president who just rallied the mob to attack sitting in the private dining room of the Oval Office in the White House watching it all on television and doing nothing for hours.
Police were assaulted. Lives at risk. The nation's Capitol under siege. This wasn't a group of tourists. This was an armed insurrection. They weren't looking to uphold the will of the people; they were looking to deny the will of the people. They're weren't looking to uphold a free and fair election. They were looking to overturn one. Then weren't looking to save the cause of America. They were looking to subvert the Constitution.
This isn't about being bogged down past. It's about making sure the past isn't buried. That's the only way forward. That's what great nations do. They don't bury the truth; they face up to it. Sounds like hyperbole, but that's your truth. They face up to it.
We are a great nation. My fellow Americans, in life there's truth and tragically there are lies. Lies conceived and spread for profit and power. We must be absolutely clear about what is true and what is a lie. And here's the truth: The former president of the United States of America has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election.
'This is insane': Lawmakers relive Jan. 6 horror alongside fresh trauma of effort to rewrite history.
He's done so because he values power over principle, because he sees his own interest as more important than his country's interest, than America's interest. And because his bruised ego matters more to him than our democracy or our Constitution.
He can't accept he lost even though that's what 93 United States senators, his own attorney general, his own vice president, governors and state officials in every battleground state have all said: he lost.
That's what 81 million of you did as you voted for a new way forward. He's done what no president in American history, in the history of this country, has ever, ever done.
He refused to accept the results of an election and the will of the American people. While some courageous men and women in the Republican Party are standing against it, trying to uphold the principle of that party, too many others are transforming that party into something else. They seem no longer to want to be the party of Lincoln, Eisenhower, Reagan, the Bushes.
Well, whatever my other disagreements are with Republicans who support the rule of law, and not the rule of a single man, I will always seek to work together with them. To find shared solutions where possible. Because when we have a shared belief in democracy, then anything is possible. Anything.
So at this moment, we must decide: What kind of nation are we going to be?
Are we going to be a nation that accepts political violence as a norm? Are we going to be a nation where we allow partisan election officials to overturn the legally expressed will of the people? Are are going to be a nation that lives not by the light of the truth but in the shadow of lies? We cannot allow ourselves to be that kind of nation.
The way forward is to recognize the truth. To live by it. The "Big Lie" being told by the former president, and many Republicans who fear his wrath, is that the insurrection in this country actually took place on Election Day, November 3, 2020. Think about that. Is that what you thought? Is that what you thought when you voted that day? Taking part in an insurrection? Is that what you thought you were doing? Or did you think you were carrying out your highest duty as a citizen and voting?
The former presidents' supporters are trying to rewrite history. They want you to see election day is the day of insurrectionand the riots that took place here on January 6 as a true expression of the will of the people. Can you think of a more twisted way to look at this country, to look at America? I cannot.
Here's the truth. The election of 2020 was the greatest demonstration of democracy in the history of this country. More of you voted in that election than have ever voted in all of American history. Over 150 million Americans went to the polls and voted that day, in a pandemic, some at great risk to their lives. And they should be applauded, not attacked.
Right now, in state after state, new laws are being written not to protect the vote, but to deny it. Not only to suppress the vote, but to subvert it. Not to strengthen and protect our democracy, but because the former president lost instead of looking at the election results in 2020, and saying they need new ideas or better ideas to win more votes. The former president and his supporters have decided the only way for them to win is to suppress your vote and subvert our elections. It's wrong. It's undemocratic. And frankly, it's un-American.
The second "Big Lie" being told by the former president's supporters is that the results of the election of 2020 can't be trusted. The truth is that no election, no election in American history has been more closely scrutinized or more carefully counted.
Every legal challenge questioning the results in every court in this country that could have been made, was made and was rejected. Often rejected by Republican-appointed judges, including judges appointed by the former president himself. From state courts to the United States Supreme Court. Recounts were undertaken in state after state.
Georgia, Georgia counted its results three times, with one recount by hand. Phony partisan audits were undertaken long after the election in several states. None change the results.
In some of them, the irony is the margin of victory actually grew slightly. So let's speak plainly about what happened in 2020.
Even before the first ballot was cast, the former president was preemptively sowing doubt about the election results. He built his lie over months. It wasn't based in the facts. He was just looking for an excuse, a pretext to cover for the truth. He's not just a former president. He's a defeated former president.
Defeated by a margin of over 7 million of your votes. In a full and free and fair election. There is simply zero proof the election results are inaccurate. In fact, in every venue where evidence had to be produced, an oath to tell the truth had to be taken, the former president failed to make his case. Just think about this: The former president and his supporters have never been able to explain how they accept as accurate other election results that took place on November 3rd. Elections for governor, United States Senate, House of Representatives, elections in which they close the gap in the House.
They challenged none of that. The president's name was first. Then we went down the line. Governor, senators, House of Representatives, somehow those results are accurate on the same ballot. But the presidential race was flawed. And on the same ballot, same day, cast by the same voters. The only difference: the former president didn't lose those races. He just the lost the one that was his own.
Finally, the third "Big Lie being" told by a former president and his supporters is that the mob who sought to impose their will through violence are the nation's true patriots. Is that what you thought when you looked at the mob, ransacking the Capitol, destroying property, literally defecating in the hallways, rifling through the desks of senators and representatives, hunting down members of Congress? Patriots? Not in my view. To me, the true patriots are the more than 150 Americans who peacefully expressed their vote at the ballot box, the election workers for protecting the integrity of the vote and the heroes who defended this Capitol. You can't love your country only when you win, you can't obey the law only when it's convenient. You can't be patriotic when you embrace and enable lies.
Those who stormed this Capitol and those who instigated and incited and those who called on them to do so held a dagger at the throat of America and American democracy. They didn't come here out of patriotism or principle. They came here in rage. Not in service of America, rather in service of one man. Those who incited the mob, the real plotters who were desperate to deny the certification of this election, to defy the will of the voters. Their plot was foiled. Congress, Democrats, Republicans stayed. Senators, representatives, staff, they finished their work the Constitution demanded. They honored their oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Look folks, now it's up to all of us, we the people, to stand for the rule of law, to preserve the flame of democracy, to keep the promise of America alive. The promise is at risk, targeted by the forces that value brute strength over the sanctity of democracy, fear over hope, personal gain over public good. Make no mistake about it, we're living at an inflection point in history, both at home and abroad.
We're engaged anew in a struggle between democracy and autocracy, between the aspirations of the many and the greed of the few, between the people's right of self-determination and self-seeking autocrat. From China to Russia and beyond, they're betting that democracy's days are numbered. They actually told me democracy is too slow, too bogged down by division to succeed in today's rapidly changing complicated world. And they're betting, they're betting America will become more like them and less like us. They're betting America's a place for the autocrat, the dictator, the strong man. I do not believe that. That is not who we are. That is not who we have ever been. And that is not who we should ever ever be.
Our founding fathers, as imperfect as they were, set in motion an experiment that changed the world, literally changed the world. Here in America, the people would ruled. Power would be transferred peacefully, never at the tip of the spear or the barrel of a gun. They committed to paper an idea that they couldn't live up to, but an idea that couldn't be constrained.
Yes, in America, all people are created equal, and reject a view that if you succeed, I fail. If you get ahead, I fall behind. If I hold you down, I somehow lift myself up. The former president lies about this election and the mob that attacked this Capitol could not be further away from the core American values. They want to rule or they will ruin, ruin what our country fought for at Lexington and Concord, at Gettysburg and Omaha Beach, Seneca Falls, Selma, Alabama. What were we fighting for? The right to vote, the right to govern ourselves. The right to determine our own destiny. With rights come responsibilities, responsibility to see each other as neighbors. Maybe we disagree with that neighbor but they're not an adversary. The responsibility to accept defeat, then get back in the arena and try again the next time to make your case. Responsibility to see that America is an idea, an idea that requires vigilant stewardship.
As we stand here today, one year since January 6 2021, the lies that drove the anger and madness we saw in this place, they have not abated. So we have to be firm, resolute and unyielding in our defense of the right to vote and to have that vote counted.
Some of us made the ultimate sacrifice in this sacred effort. Jill and I mourned police officers in this Capitol Rotunda not once but twice in the wake of January 6th. Once to honor Officer Brian Sicknick, who lost his life the day after the attack and a second time to honor Officer Billy Evans, who lost his life defending this Capitol as well. Think about the others who lost their lives and everyone living with the trauma of that day. Those defending this Capitol, to members of Congress of both parties and their staffs, to reporters, cafeteria workers, custodial workers and their families. Don't kid yourself, the pain and scars from that day were deep. I've said it many times, and it's no more true or real, when we think about the events of January 6. We are in a battle for the soul of America. A battle, but by the grace of God, the goodness and greatness of this nation, we will win.
Believe me, I know how difficult democracy is, but I'm crystal clear about the threats America faces. I also know that our darkest days can lead to light and hope. From the death and destruction the vice president referenced at Pearl Harbor came the triumph over the forces of fascism. From the brutality of Bloody Sunday, the Edmund Pettus Bridge, came historic voting rights legislation. So now let's step up, write the next chapter in American history. For January 6 marks not the end of democracy but the beginning of a renaissance of liberty and fair play. I did not seek this fight brought to this Capital one year ago today. But I will not shrink from it either. I will stand in this breach. I will defend this nation, and I'll allow no one to place a dagger at the throat of democracy. We will make sure the will of the people is heard, that the ballot prevails, not violence, that authority of this nation will always be peacefully transferred. I believe the power of the presidency and the purpose is to unite this nation. Not divide it, to lift us up, not tear us apart. It's about us, not about me.
Deep in the heart of America burns a flame lit almost 250 years ago of liberty, freedom and equality. This is not a land of kings or dictators or autocrats. We're a nation of laws, of order, not chaos, of peace, not violence. Here in America, the people rule through the ballot, and their will prevails. So let us remember together. We're one nation, under God, indivisible, that today, tomorrow and forever at our best, we are the United States of America.
God bless you all. God protect our troops, and may God bless those who stand watch over democracy. ".

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2647915]Most of my clients have been with me over 20 years. My job is to build wealth for them over a period of time so they can retire comfortably. In the world today to lead a decent lifestyle you need to have at least $2 million in retirement. In 20 years I only had 2 clients that bailed out of the market because of who was elected president. Most of my clients are smart enough. My one client was 62 years old had $2.5 million in the market and panic sold for $2.2 million. If he would not have panic sold he would have close to $4.5 million today after 5 years. His hate of Trump caused him about $3 million. There was never 2 Bear market crashes in last 10 years and you continuing to fabricate lies shows your lack of intelligence. No savvy investor invest for a year. Investors are long term with a 20 year plan or more. Most of my clients portfolios went up 68-84 percent over Trump presidency which is remarkable. Any investor would take that under any president. Savvy investors don't quit investing if there is a republican or democrat in office. They pay our firm to react and advise what to invest in. This year it was oil industry that paid biggest gains. Our firm knew Biden policies would drive up oil prices and we advised our clients to buy oil stocks that went up in 2021 34-84 percent. Just because we have an incompetent president it doesn't keen we can't make money in the market. You don't seem to know much about anything and all you seem capable of is attacking Trump or republicans.[/QUOTE]So you didn't notice the 2 Bear Market Crashes, a 20% decline or more in a broad market Index, in 2018 and 2020 under Trump or the 2 under GW Bush in 2021 and that biggie in 2008?
Were you in a coma during those 4 Bear Markets of the past 20 years? Well, ok GW Bush's first one began 21 years ago. But still. Only someone in a deep deep coma missed the one in 2008 under Bush, the one in 2018 and the one in 2020 under Trump.
And it sounds as if you did not make any effort to advise your 2 intelligent Trump hater clients to buy back into the market at or near the bottom of either of Trump's 2 Bear Market Crashes. Really? Well, I suppose if you never noticed the stock market fell squarely into 2 Bear Markets in just the past 4 years under Trump it's kinda hard to advise anyone what to do about it with their money.
Anyway, if those 2 clients of yours had bought back in at the bottoms of those 2 Trump Bear Market Crashes after getting out of the market in 2017 then they would have done better than just riding both of them down and up like a pointless rollercoaster. Certainly better than the 68% or whatever your other clients squeaked out after 4 or was it 5 years.
Oh, I don't mean they would have gotten the 235% gain Obama produced or the 264% gain Clinton produced for anyone doing nothing more than leaving their money in a no-brainer mutual fund tracking the S&P 500 Index or the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index without paying so much as a dime to someone calling themselves a financial advisor. But better than what your more obedient clients gained.
Hey, if your two intelligent Trump-haters bought back into the market in early November 2020 on Biden's landslide election victory that means they benefitted from one of if not the greatest election-to-inauguration Bull Market Rally in history and on top of that the 28% gain we had in the year after Biden took office! That alone would probably have gotten them gains pretty close to what your other clients got in 4-5 years. Did they? Or have you not noticed yet?
[QUOTE=EihTooms;2621918]Exactly. There never was any CRT or organized Dem push to defund the police in Virginia or anywhere else.
The outcome in Virginia perfectly fits the way a Virginia gubernatorial election outcome has been since the beginning of the country and the way all but 1-2 post-presidential elections (including midterms) have gone since the end of WWII. Now, the Dem Murphy win did break a usual trend.
Youngkin's particular advantage was the typically pro-Repub Mainstream Media was able to promote lies about the Dems and convince suckers to get riled up to vote against boogie-men that don't exist in a more traditional manner without much interference from Trump, who Youngkin avoided like the plague (but with a wink, as you pointed out)
That is why I disapproved of Trump being banned from Twitter and Facebook. Dems have a much better chance and track record of overcoming the typical pro-Repub campaining and electioneering by Mainstream Media when Trump has a huge platform on which to to tweet tweet tweet his idiotic assertions, addle-brained proposals and America-hating lies far and wide forcing Repubs and Repub candidates everywhere to respond, comment, agree or disagree on a daily if not hourly basis.
I liken the muzzling and banning of Trump on those platforms to still another example of widespread media sources helping Repubs win elections.[/QUOTE]Any idea who she is?

Former President Donald Trump fired back at President Joe Biden Thursday morning after Biden blamed him for the events of Jan. 6.
Trump issued his statements through his Save America PAC.
In his first response, Trump said:
Biden, who is destroying our Nation with insane policies of open Borders, corrupt Elections, disastrous energy policies, unconstitutional mandates, and devastating school closures, used my name today to try to further divide America. This political theater is all just a distraction for the fact Biden has completely and totally failed. Our Country no longer has Borders, has totally and completely lost control of Covid (record numbers! Is no longer Energy Independent, Inflation is rampant, our Military is in chaos, and our exit, or surrender, from Afghanistan was perhaps the most embarrassing day in the long and distinguished history of the United States—and so much more. Why is it that the Unselect Committee of totally partisan political hacks, whose judgment has long ago been made, not discussing the rigged Presidential Election of 2020? It's because they don't have the answers or justifications for what happened. They got away with something, and it is leading to our Country's destruction. They want all conversation concerning the Election "Canceled. " Just look at the numbers, they speak for themselves. They are not justifiable, so the complicit media just calls it the Big Lie, when in actuality the Big Lie was the Election itself.
The Democrats want to own this day of January 6th so they can stoke fears and divide America. I say, let them have it because America sees through theirs lies and polarizations.
In a follow-up statement issued later Thursday morning, Trump added:
Biden is working hard to try and deflect the incompetent job he is doing, and has done, on the horrible Afghanistan withdrawal (surrender), the Borders, COVID, Inflation, loss of Energy Independence, and much more. Everything he touches turns to failure. That's what you get when you have a rigged Election.
In another follow-up issued early Thursday afternoon, Trump continued to hammer away on his thee of the "rigged" presidential election, saying:
To watch Biden speaking is very hurtful to many people. They're the ones who tried to stop the peaceful transfer with a rigged election. Just look at the numbers. Does anybody really think that Biden beat Obama with the Black population in select Swing State cities, but nowhere else? That he would lose 18 out of 19 bellwether counties, and 27 out of 27 "toss up" House races, but somehow miraculously receive the most votes in American history with no coattails? That he would lose Florida, Ohio, and Iowa and win, even though it has never been done before?
They spread a "web of lies" about me and Russia for 4 years to try to overturn the 2016 election, and now they lie about how they interfered in the 2020 Election, too. Big Tech was used illegally.
Where did all those votes show up from in Georgia, where it was just revealed they sold ballots for $10 a piece, or in Pennsylvania, and Arizona, and Wisconsin. He acts like he's aggrieved, but we're the ones who were aggrieved and America is suffering because of it with poisonous Borders, record Inflation, a humiliating surrender in Afghanistan, $5 a gallon gas and higher, empty stock shelves, and rampant crime. America is a laughingstock stock of the world, and it's all because of the real insurrection, which took place on November 3rd, but this is an election year and MAGA Republicans should get elected and work with me to fix this horror that Joe Biden and the Democrats have brought us.
Never forget the crime of the 2020 Presidential Election. Never give up!

Biden did not create 6.4 million jobs. 6.4 million returned to their jobs. Biden needs 1.6 million more people to return to their jobs before he can get credit for creating 1 job.

And if you suspect Biden's millions of newly recovered and created jobs at higher wages are just the same millions of jobs wiped out by Trump's horrific economic decisions and stewardship and so it is nothing for him to get credit for as you probably thought was the case for the jobs numbers accredited to FDR, JFK / LBJ, Carter, Clinton and Obama, here's the obvious fix for what ails you:
Stop voting for or allowing Repubs to weasel their Do Nothing, Great Depression / Recession, Massive USA Jobs Destroying asses in the White House or anywhere else where their always favorite economic philosophy and agenda will predictably Crash the USA economy and wipe out millions of jobs, leaving it to the next incoming Dem and only the next incoming Dem to swing into intelligent and effective action and legislation required to rescue the country from the disastrous results of your Repub idols.
Then the next incoming Dem historic economy-expanding, jobs-creating and stock market Bull Run hero won't have anything to rescue, recover and get credit for.
See how that works?

[QUOTE] Illegal immigration across the southwest border is on pace for the worst year since 2007 or the last time the country began a massive wall-building spree according to new Homeland Security numbers.
Four months into the fiscal year the Border Patrol nabbed nearly 201,500 people, compared to about 109,500 at the same point in the previous year.

Then they broke all prior records beginning in Trump's final year in office, before Biden's 2020 landslide election victory and several months before Biden took office. See link below.
So we have to thank Joe and Kamala for doing a terrific job cleaning up Trump's mess on illegal border crossings along with all the other colossal Trump messes.

Yes zero jobs and 1. 6 million more people need to take jobs just to get to Trump pre pandemic jobs numbers. Unfortunately Biden thinks like Obama so job creation is very slow. One year later no new jobs by Biden and December jobs numbers were horrible. Facts are facts even if you don't like them.

I am getting tired of the Marxist propaganda that is regularly posted on this thread by party apparatchiks. See the attached file for the truth.
So why are the American Marxists (the Democratic Party) in favor of an open border? The answer is now clear: up to one million illegal aliens living in New York City will have access to the ballot box after NY Mayor Eric Adams (D) on Sunday approved legislation by the city council to automatically become law.
[QUOTE=MarquisdeSade1;2648342]In another follow-up issued early Thursday afternoon, Trump continued to hammer away on his thee of the "rigged" presidential election, saying:
To watch Biden speaking is very hurtful to many people. They're the ones who tried to stop the peaceful transfer with a rigged election. Just look at the numbers. Does anybody really think that Biden beat Obama with the Black population in select Swing State cities, but nowhere else? That he would lose 18 out of 19 bellwether counties, and 27 out of 27 "toss up" House races, but somehow miraculously receive the most votes in American history with no coattails? That he would lose Florida, Ohio, and Iowa and win, even though it has never been done before?
They spread a "web of lies" about me and Russia for 4 years to try to overturn the 2016 election, and now they lie about how they interfered in the 2020 Election, too. Big Tech was used illegally.[/QUOTE]Yeah, there is no evidence that the election was rigged but there was circumstantial evidence galore. That $10 ballot deal was uncovered by a citizen's group, and it was the same shit we saw in Michigan deleted video / data that should not have been deleted and unmanned ballot boxes. What is amazing to me is how many people were complicit in it. First off, 85% of the video in Georgia was deleted. Still the video that was there showed 242 cars going to the same ballot boxes between midnight and 5 AM and dumping thousands and thousands of ballots off. The Secretary of State in Georgia insisted on a person who would admit to what was going on and they found him. He admitted to delivering 4500 ballots off and collecting $45,000.
So this is the same pattern we have seen before. Russiagate and Ukrainegate were all designed to get Trump out so he could not serve as president even after he won the election. 1-6 gate was so he could not run again. If anybody had ever questioned who was running this country, the president or the swamp, they got their answer.
It would be interesting to see how far up the totem pole this goes, but you can be sure the DDOJ, Democratic department of Justice, will not pursue it. They are too busy going after those parents who want a say in their kid's education, those damned white supremacist terrorists!
I am actually glad Trump lost. He can regroup and get his people in and get rid of some of these swamp rats like Fauci, Francis Collins, and most of the FBI. That fucker Fauci is such an arrogant bastard he said if you disagree with me, you disagree with science.

Russiagate and Ukrainegate were all designed to get Trump out so he could not serve as president even after he won the election. 1-6 gate was so he could not run again. If anybody had ever questioned who was running this country, the president or the swamp, they got their answer.
It would be interesting to see how far up the totem pole this goes, but you can be sure the DDOJ, Democratic department of Justice, will not pursue it. They are too busy going after those parents who want a say in their kid's education, those damned white supremacist terrorists!.[/QUOTE][URL]https://amgreatness.com/2022/01/05/who-are-the-real-insurrectionists/[/URL]
[QUOTE=Canada;2649239]Elections do have consequences and now all the people that voted for Biden are paying the price. No plan to solve previous virus even though he had 3 vaccines and now he has started the Biden virus. Crises at the border. Highest inflation in 4 decades crippling the poor. If only we could go back to 2018 when Trump was president. Biden is making Trump look like the smartest guy in the world and we know he isn't. The only one possibly dumber than Biden is the ones that are actually trying to defend his failing policies.
And what about the stock market that the socialists were bragging about last week. Why is the market down if Biden economy is working? Why have only 6.4 million of the 8 million workers who were let go during pandemic in democrats states who shut down all the small businesses? Why hasn't Biden created even 1 new job? Inflation has only been this high in 5 decades when we had the 2 worst presidents in history Carter and Biden. Why are the fools still blaming Trump for Biden failed policies? Obviously there are a few people on this site who protect Biden policies because they want to see the USA fail.[/QUOTE]The S&P 500 Index is down about 4. 5% from its all time record high under Biden and you see that as a sign that Biden's historic record high USA jobs creating and 5%+ real GDP growth economy is a failure?
Oh, sorry, I forgot you're paying big bucks to a couple of self-described "financial advisors" from big bucks firms who apparently think the "DOW" is the financial industry standard measure for the stock market.
Ok, the DOW is current down about 3.5% from its all time record high under Biden.
Have either of those big bucks firm "financial advisors" ever mentioned that sometimes stock market investors take single digit profits out of the market after it hits all time record highs to, you know, buy stuff?
Don't tell anybody, but that turns out to be good for the economy too.
[QUOTE=EihTooms;2649243]Courts accept circumstantial evidence all the time. In fact, it is often more reliable and can be better corroborated and substantiated than eye witness testimony.

My understanding of what is happening now is that the Republicans are watching the polls like crazy now and if there is any funny business, they go to a judge right then. This way you are not asking a judge to overturn an election result but making a decision to invalidate a ballot or ballots before the results are even known.
Did you notice how the Democratic here were mum on this story of someone illegally harvesting ballots? There is no outrage about that or that 85% of the video was destroyed just that there was no credible circumstantial evidence.
GWB won the 2000 election, but these Democratic douches went on and on about how the Supreme Court handed GWB the election. That and this election showed me that Democratic douches have zero interest in the integrity of elections. All they care about is if their guy wins. It is setting the USA up to be a banana republic.
[QUOTE=Canada;2648898]Obama did not help the creation of jobs as he put hundreds of stupid regulations for small businesses and major corporations. No real jobs were created. Jobs were created when Trump removed these regulations. Only 6. 4 million jobs of the the 8 million jobs that were lost when democrats shut business down in their states have been recovered. Biden has created zero. Yes zero jobs and 1. 6 million more people need to take jobs just to get to Trump pre pandemic jobs numbers. Unfortunately Biden thinks like Obama so job creation is very slow. One year later no new jobs by Biden and December jobs numbers were horrible.

Swing State Trumpers Forged Letters to National Archives in Harebrained Scheme to Overturn Election.
Forrest Gump was correct: "Stupid is as stupid does."
"Many Americans don't fear a potential slide into authoritarianism because they have no basis for doing so. Our oceans and hegemony have coddled us; we take democracy for granted. But democracy and the rule of law are not the normal state of governments, certainly not historically.
Authoritarianism wouldn't happen overnight, but authoritarian regimes have shown us a road map. Here's a picture of what it would look like here.
If Trump and his enablers get their way, how you experience your life would depend on whether you identified — and were identified — as a Trump Republican.
Identified as a Trump Republican by your bumper sticker, you would be more likely to get a warning instead of speeding ticket. You would gain the inside track for government jobs, grants, and needed permits. Decisions about government benefits, like unemployment and disability, would be more likely to go your way. Your children would be more likely to win scholarships and admission to their chosen schools. You would get more favorable loan and mortgage treatment and better access to scarce goods, the best tickets.
Regulations would be interpreted in your favor, or maybe just ignored. You could rely on the criminal justice and judicial systems to go easy on you, if not help you out.
If, instead, you were perceived as a Democrat, or just an insufficiently Trump Republican, you would experience the reverse of what's above. Tax auditors would focus on you. You would be more likely to be hassled by police, even jailed if you were too troublesome. Nasty graffiti might appear on your business or home. You would be accused of being un-American, a traitor. You would learn to keep your head down and be careful about what you said to whom.
Science would be interpreted or even suppressed to suit Trump Republican needs. History would be whitewashed to celebrate the regime and its version of events. School curricula and texts would similarly conform.
LBGTQ folks would closet themselves again. Fewer women would lead in government, business, or society. People who want to marginalize and discriminate against people of color, non-Christians, and immigrants would find cover to do so. Abortion and birth control would be illegal. Public education would wither as religious schools claimed more and more public funding. Air and water quality would suffer. Climate change would go unaddressed. The military could be used to put down dissent.
Again, not all of this would happen instantly, and we can't predict how far the Trump Republicans would go. But this is the path that they are on.
So if you are a Trump Republican, perhaps all this sounds great. Finally, justice for my many grievances. Maybe that's the country in which you want to live.
I hope and pray that the great majority of Americans will reject it.

All indexes were up in the USA market an average of 68 percent during the Trump presidency.

I only own about 200 individual stocks of which about 50 percent of them pay dividends from. 3 to 7 percent. My portfolio went up 70 per cent on stock price increases, dividends and interest in the 4 years Trump was president. This was my biggest gain under any president in the last 40 years. I know you can't relate to this because you do not invest in the market as your posts indicate. It doesn't matter what happened in the past. In retrospect I never had a loss in any 4 years of any presidency in last 40 years but obviously some are better than others. I like many savvy investors made huge returns under Biden when he tried to kill the oil and gas industry, created a shortage and crude and natural gas doubled in price in one year. This is the reason you pay good financial advisors. I do not ever complain paying a 25 percent commission every year for 4 years to make 68 percent. You get what you pay for.
When asked about Jim Jordan's recent announcement that he would not cooperate with the January 6th committee, Representative Adam Schiff said: "I have to say, I'm not hat surprised by it. He said he 'had nothing to hide', and then he decided 'Well, I guess I have a lot to hide'.
Jordan's weaseling days after the January 6th violent insurrection with reporters whether and when he spoke to TrumpShit is pure video comedy.
What is not funny, was his aiding and abetting in his University's coverup of sexual abuse in the wrestling program when he was a coach.

Ok, I'm going to give you the best stock market investment advice anyone has apparently given you in 40 years. And I won't charge you anything for it; open an account at Vanguard. The expense ratios for all of their funds range from 0.10% to 0.60%. Yes, you read that right. Less than 1%! Not 25%. To anyone!
The Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund, VTSAX, will cost you no more than about.
0.40% per year to maintain and service it. You don't need to pay a commission to a broker, a self-described "financial advisor", a priest or anyone else other than that. And you will never get robbed of 25% by any con man or thief.
Had you been in that simple, no-brainer, extremely low cost, low tax, beautifully diversified Index Fund over the past 40 years you would have gained all but about 0.40% of those 235% and 264% Dem presidency gains and kept a hell of a lot more of that middling 68% - 70% under Trump.
You're welcome.
Oh, and before you have the scammers who have been steamrolling you for the past 40 years fired and arrested, let them know that as of today's close the industry standard reference S&P 500 Index is only off about 2.3% from its all time closing high and the amusing but far less useful for that measure DOW is only off about 1.85%.
Not that they are in the business to know or care about such things. Their only challenge is to locate suckers happy and eager to pay 25% commissions for godknowswhat nonsense they're peddling you. I assume they troll those Trump MAGA rallies for their most likely marks.

That Canada dude was robbed, reamed and abandoned by investment sharks worse than anyone I have heard or read about since Bernie Madoff.

What could those 200 stocks they bamboozled him into buying possibly be if 70% was the best return he ever got during a presidency in the past 40 years? Has to be of companies thrown together by their brother-in-law and almost certainly paying those sharks hefty kick-backs for putting their sucker clients into them. Oh well. There are many such stories because there are many such suckers.
A blind-folded chimp throwing 200 darts at a list of stocks in the S&P 500 would have earned better gains on them just during each of the 264% gain Clinton and 235% gain Obama presidencies in the past 29 years.
And that chimp would have done it for a banana, not robbing him of 25% commissions from the apparently relatively paltry gains he made during those historic Dem president Bull Runs!
Investors dumb enough to pay 3-7% commissions when they don't even have to in order to do very well in the market are laughable. But 25%! That isn't even funny. It's criminal.
Yeah, I started with Fidelity in 1986 with the fantastic 401 k offered by the Fortune 500 company I worked for, thanks to Jimmy Carter insisting it be included in his 1978 budget to require companies to offer that amazingly rewarding tax deferred investment tool to every employee and not just to the top management.
Thanks, Jimmy.
And then I rolled it over into an IRA with Vanguard when I retired about 20 years later in my 50's, flush and ready to travel and fuck 4-5 different young Thai girls every week for my second half.

I assume they are also the ones who convinced him he ought to be proud of that 70% gain in those 4 Trump years, how thrilled any investor would be to do so well and all that typical con artist pitch. LOL.
What could those 200 stocks they bamboozled him into buying possibly be if 70% was the best return he ever got during a presidency in the past 40 years? Has to be of companies thrown together by their brother-in-law and almost certainly paying those sharks hefty kick-backs for putting their sucker clients into them. Oh well. There are many such stories because there are many such suckers.
A blind-folded chimp throwing 200 darts at a list of stocks in the S&P 500 would have earned better gains on them just during each of the 264% gain Clinton and 235% gain Obama presidencies in the past 29 years..[/QUOTE]Portfolio gains are always after fees but obviously you didn't know that because your only source of income is government subsistence.

No, my greatest stock market returns per presidency were during those 264% gain Clinton years and 235% gain Obama years while your way overpaid even at 0.25% commission financial advisors were telling you how proud and thrilled you should be to have only gained something significantly less than 70%.
The Carter years were not my best stock market return years because I wasn't in the market during Carter's presidency. But Carter was the one who required companies to offer all of their rank and file employees one of the greatest tax deferred stock market investment and retirement planning instruments of all time, the 401 k, instead of only blessing their top management executives with that offer.
That alone was a greater "tax cut" and pro retirement advantage for the ordinary working American than any Repub ever produced or ever will produce.
Oh, and so many jobs were being created under Carter, I should mention those were the years I could pick and choose companies to work for, salaries to consider, future prospects in each plum company to calculate.
That sure as hell was no longer the case after Reagan took over, got his way and promptly plunged us into his Great Repub Recession with 10%+ unemployment rates for 10 consecutive months beginning in his 2nd year in office and extending into his 3rd year!
BTW, I notice no Wingers have mentioned or linked a report on the lastest inflation number yet. And I know why. LOL. It seems every headline on how high the number is also mentions it is the highest "since 1982". That means it was higher in 1982 or from the year before.
Hmm. I forget. Who was president in 1982 and had been for at least a year by then, just as Biden is today? LOL. Yes, higher inflation than today and crap jobs creation results and skyrocketing unemployment rates and a Great Repub Recession in the works and the start of his tripling of the national debt with absolutely nothing to show for it. That was the reality of the Reagan economy.

Carter wasn't president in 1982. Reagan was and had been for a year, just like Biden now.
And the thing is, the inflation rate was the best factor in the Reagan economy of 1982 because at least it was steadily declining, thanks solely to Carter and the Fed Chairman he appointed in Q4 1979 to do exactly that and nothing whatsoever to do with anything Reagan did.
What had everything to do with Reagan's favorite Repub economic policies in 1982, his 2nd year in office, was the unemployment rate that was I'm steady decline into the 7% range when he took office was just beginning to skyrocket into ten consecutive months of double digits stretching well into his 3rd year in office, his Great Reagan / Repub Recession, then the worst economic downturn since the Great Repub Depression of the late 1920's / early 1930's was just beginning and he was making the usual Repub moves to add massive amounts to the national debt and deficit trying to spend his way out of the mess he made of everything with nothing to show for it.

You're a big believer in polls now. Browse around RealClearPolitics and see what the consensus of polls is showing. Individual polls tell us little. A consensus of polls tells us more.
Bear in mind, the RCP consensus of polls is ok, but they do lean heavily on including Rasmussen multiple times, which always over-samples dimwit Repubs. Oh, and for at least a year the growing number of self-described Independents has tended to lean more pro-Dem and the percentage of people self-identifying as Repubs has dwindled. So any poll that chooses roughly an equal number of Dem, Independent and Repub respondents will be way over-sampling the shrinking number of Repub leaners anyway.

Here's the short hand version if you're too busy to browse:
Biden's Job Approval / Favorability Ratings are the highest of any group or leader of that group at the federal level. Higher than Trump's Favorability Rating now. Back when Trump pretended to have a job in the federal government, Biden's Job Approval Rating is higher than Trump's was for his entire 1st year in office and higher than it was when he got his ass kicked out of the White House.
Biden's are higher than the Repub and Dem leadership in the House and Senate, higher than either house of Congress.
I suppose Ron DeSantis is the next likely Repub candidate for potus after Trump. Last Job Approval Rating I could find for him among Floridians showed his Job Approval Rating sank 14-15 points from mid 2021 to 48% by September. At that rate his current Job Approval Rating might be lower than Biden's as well. Don't know because there has been no polling on him since September.
See, with Trump's Pandemic still raging in all its variants among Trump's base, his supply chain destruction still punishing worldwide economies and crippling international travel for fun, pleasure and business, making life difficult for so many, most poll respondents tend to just hate everyone.
But they hate Joe Biden least of all among the usual suspects.

Actually, as regards the stock market under Clinton, his historic Bull Run began in mid 1994, months after he and the Dems passed the 1993 Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act without a single Repub vote and months before the midterm that flipped control of Congress from Dem to Repub.
So all of the most significant elements for the subsequent economic boomtimes, historic stock market gains and balancing the budget to produce the surpluses GW Bush inherited and totally squandered were already locked in the system solely by Dems before any Repub so much as chaired a committee to spend all their time in the next 6 years sniffing around Clinton's dick and balls trying to find out where they've been.
Clinton won both of the 2 Nude Grinbitch government showdowns and shutdowns that followed so resoundingly it was Nude Grinbitch and not Clinton who was kicked out of office in humiliation no matter how many blowjobs Clinton accepted from consenting adult females the Do Nothing Repubs spent millions invesigating.
[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2651142]Agreed. If you had invested in oil industry and Warren Buffet companies last year it would have been a great year for you. The market outlook doesn't look so good for 2022 though. With Biden's record inflation the feds are going have to make some drastic changes.[/QUOTE]You mean if you had only invested in oil stocks and Buffett companies in your portfolio and nothing else. But nobody here has said that is what they did.
In reality, if you hadn't picked any particular stocks, hadn't assumed any unnecessary individual stock risk and hadn't paid anyone to help you do so and had all of your USA stock market holdings in a no-brainer, broadly diversified, far less risky mutual fund tracking the S&P 500 Index or the Wilshire 5000 Index it would have been a great year for you.
[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2651157]Please explain and supply documents of the supposed jobs Biden created. Please provide which policies he got approved by congress to create this jobs and in which sector these jobs were created. As for actual facts Biden hasn't gotten virtual nothing passe3 d through congress. Maybe I missed it but all reports still show no new jobs created by Biden only people returning to old jobs.
China virus is under control with 3 Trump vaccines. Biden Virus is out of control with no vaccine for it and limited testing kits available in USA. If anyone mishandled the China Virus and Biden virus it was Biden. And his polling numbers prove it.[/QUOTE]Sure, no problem.
The same documented, official source for jobs creation or loss every president has used to accurately claim jobs created or lost on his watch:

You know, the jobs creating legislation Repubs all around the country are taking credit for at ribbon cuttings and job sites even though not one of them voted for it.

You know, the creation from scratch the number one requirement for getting the USA economy and jobs creation started again after Trump created his Pandemic, spent 2020 discouraging anyone from bothering to invent a vaccine for it or taking one and wiped out millions upon millions of jobs.
And here, passed and has already started to produce jobs in preparation for it:

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2651162]LOL. Is that what it said?
"At 42%, the model envisions virtually no chance for Democrats to hold the Senate and predicts a loss of four seats as the most likely outcome. At 42%, the Colorado Senate seat could potentially come into play, assuming that Republicans produced a credible candidate (remember that a relatively unheralded candidate held Sen. Michael Bennet to a six-point margin in 2016)."
Eih, you are great at revisionism. Somehow Carter was a better president than Reagan but let us try the future. Tell me what happens in the midterms this year. Make your prediction.[/QUOTE]Um, you're reading and quoting an opinion piece on that site. The various Jobs Approval and Favorability Ratings are found in the drop down menu.
The logical prediction for the midterms is the same pattern for the 1st midterm of a new presidency combined with the same pattern for what happens to Dems in Congress after they pass and enact historic legislation that Repubs and their typically loyal benefactors in Maistream Media effectively demonize and frighten the American people over early on for their purposes but inevitably turn out to be among the most revered and guarded components that Makes America Great; they lose significant numbers of seats.
It happened after every major Dem improvement on American life from FDR to LBJ to Clinton to Obama. Which means it will probably happen with Biden, too.
None of the "gotcha" demonizing of sucker culture war issues matter in the least to that outcome even though pro Repub pundits will try to claim guru status for recognizing and pointing to them.
They are not needed to produce that likely midterm outcome. That is just the pattern and the way Americans can be swayed and influenced whether it is the 1930's, 1960's, 1990's, 2000's or 2020+.
