Dubya was supposed to be the dumbest president ever. Trump is so much worse, and happened so quickly after W’s term. It’s a bit shocking until you realize who actually wields the levers of power in American government: the rich/corporations. They control it all, including for whom we get to “vote” in the first place. POTUS being a useful idiot is quite beneficial for them.
Republicans, famously opposed to corrupt grifting such as insider trading…
lol
Happy little detour =]
Terrible idea for a jobs program to begin with. Security theatre, always has been. Just do away with the whole thing and go back to regular old metal detectors, it’s proven more effective and far more affordable ($40T debt and rising thanks to no tax only spend repugnantcon policy).
Bibi said no, simple as.
“Option” - lmao, already providing themselves cover to do nothing. Dems are so beyond pathetic.
Dems are turning what should have been a blue tsunami this year into a tepid blue wave with all the left-bashing they’re engaged in, and this is in the face of a pure and unadulterated fascist regime. They’re totally clueless on how to meet this moment.
By the time they’re done doing worse than jack shit over the next 2 years, Repugs will be back to winning elections.
The 2 party system and the delusion of checks and balances have failed this country beyond reason. Those who claim to represent us are torn between doing the bidding of oligarchs, or foreign countries’ governments, while our people are left suffering and robbed of our very dignity.
Well and truly disgustipated.
One does not simply declare bankruptcy 6 times by “learning how to run a business” sweaty
Private equity attempting to capture profits. Much harder to do with renewables.
Just wait until BRICS becomes the new petro dollar. After that, all bets are off.
You know, Congress could change this with a single vote if they weren’t such corrupt sacks of shit.
Get a load of this guy, can’t even make NY housing affordable inside a year!
We look forwards, not backwards.
This is how you doom your country to repeat history, or worse…
lmao how many audits have they just straight up failed to complete? 8 years in a row if I’m not mistaken. This just reeks of Dem-bare-minimum with 0 meaningful results anticipated. So obnoxious.
Agreed. Don’t be fooled - Pete Buttigieg made his career as a McKinsey consultant.
Probably doing work for Israel, Netanyahu is wanted for war crimes by the ICC after all.
Biden was the senator who authored, sponsored, and loudly endorsed the 2005 BAPCPA legislation, which prevents student loan borrowers from declaring bankruptcy over their crushing debt. Hot on the heels of GWB removing the tuition increase caps for state universities. Senator Biden of Delaware was literally “their guy” - meaning the student loan lenders and accompanying financial institutions.
So no, he was doing his job by ensuring the debt forgiveness did not succeed. Or if it did, that 95% of recipients would be means tested out of it. This complements his job as a centrist corporate ghoul - to trick people into believing the democrats would do something to meaningfully improve their lives, if only those pesky republicans would let them.
If it’s still possible for voting to work, we have to get rid of all the establishment corpo-critters, the ones taking money from AIPAC, etc. Many leftist social dems are winning primaries, get them in office this November and maybe we can stem the tide. Maybe.
As was the plan all along for an establishment ghoul
lol yeah dude the shoe throwing incident will forever be hilarious. and you’ve gotta hand it to Dubya, at least he was spry enough to see it coming and duck out of the way in time.
