Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?
 
2021's official inflation numbers are going to come out tomorrow. The consensus opinion is that it'll be 7%, despite the fudging of the numbers, which is gonna have the White House scrambling to shift the blame to someone else. According to Axios, Biden is trying to blame corporations for the inflation but some of the bigshots at the Treasury Department know what this is - a feeble attempt to shift blame - and think this strategy is retarded.

And right on cue for that inflation report tomorrow...

Well done Joe! Keep fucking up as always!

The consumer price index (CPI) in the 12 months to December jumped seven percent, the highest since June 1982, the Labor Department said, with housing, autos and energy among the biggest contributors.

However, month-on-month CPI growth slowed to 0.5 percent from November, indicating the price surge may be nearing a peak.

The world’s largest economy saw a record price increases last year as rising demand and a return to normalcy collided with labor shortages and global supply chain snarls.

While the spike was initially confined to items like used cars and energy, the latest data confirms inflation spread in December beyond those sectors and into consumer staples.

Prices for shelter, including rental properties, were one of the main contributors to the increase, the Labor Department said, rising 4.1 percent in the year, while food rose 6.3 percent.

However, in both cases the monthly increase in the final month of the year was less than in November.

Used car prices jumped 37.3 percent in 2021, the report said, and in December prices accelerated again, rising 3.5 percent from the month prior.

With volatile food and energy prices stripped out, “core” CPI was up 5.5 percent for 2021 — the highest since February 1991, the report said.

Core CPI rose 0.6 percent for the month, faster than analysts anticipated and above its rate of growth in November.

add the meme
Leading British and US scientists thought it was likely that Covid accidentally leaked from a laboratory but were concerned that further debate would harm science in China, emails show.
An email from Sir Jeremy Farrar, director of the Wellcome Trust, on February 2 2020 said that “a likely explanation” was that Covid had rapidly evolved from a Sars-like virus inside human tissue in a low-security lab.
The email, to Dr Anthony Fauci and Dr Francis Collins of the US National Institutes of Health, went on to say that such evolution may have “accidentally created a virus primed for rapid transmission between humans”.
But a leading scientist told Sir Jeremy that “further debate would do unnecessary harm to science in general and science in China in particular”. Dr Collins, the former director of the US National Institutes of Health, warned it could damage “international harmony”.


Viscount Ridley, co-author of Viral: the search for the origin of Covid, said: “These emails show a lamentable lack of openness and transparency among Western scientists who appear to have been more interested in shutting down a hypothesis they thought was very plausible, for political reasons.”
In the emails, Sir Jeremy said that other scientists also believed the virus could not have evolved naturally. One such scientist was Professor Mike Farzan, of Scripps Research, the expert who discovered how the original Sars virus binds to human cells.
Scientists were particularly concerned by a part of Covid-19 called the furin cleavage site, a section of the spike protein which helps it enter cells and makes it so infectious to humans.
Summarising Professor Farzan’s concerns in an email, Sir Jeremy said: “He is bothered by the furin site and has a hard time (to) explain that as an event outside the lab, though there are possible ways in nature but highly unlikely.
“I think this becomes a question of how do you put all this together, whether you believe in this series of coincidences, what you know of the lab in Wuhan, how much could be in nature - accidental release or natural event? I am 70:30 or 60:40.”
Later emails showed that by February 4, Sir Jeremy had revised his estimate of a laboratory leak to 50:50, while Professor Eddie Holmes, of the University of Sydney, gave a 60:40 estimate in favour of an accidental release.
The emails also show that Bob Garry, of the University of Texas, was unconvinced that Covid-19 emerged naturally.
“I just can’t figure out how this gets accomplished in nature,” he said.
Professor Andrew Rambaut, from the University of Edinburgh, also said that furin cleavage site “strikes me as unusual”.
He added: “I think the only people with sufficient information or access to samples to address it would be the teams working in Wuhan.”
The new details came to light after members of the US Republican House Oversight Committee were granted access to the documents, after complaining that their content had been heavily redacted when released under Freedom of Information requests.

The emails were sent in response to a teleconference between 12 scientists including Sir Patrick Vallance, the Government's chief scientific adviser, on February 1.
The emails show that by February 2 2020, scientists were already trying to shut down the debate into the laboratory leak theory.
An email from Dr Ron Fouchier to Sir Jeremy said: “Further debate about such accusations would unnecessarily distract top researchers from their active duties and do unnecessary harm to science in general and science in China in particular.”
Dr Collins, former director of the NIH, replied to Sir Jeremy stating: “I share your view that a swift convening of experts in a confidence-inspiring framework is needed or the voices of conspiracy will quickly dominate, doing great potential harm to science and international harmony.”
Institutions which held the emails have repeatedly resisted efforts to publish their content.
The University of Edinburgh recently turned down an Freedom of Information request from The Telegraph asking to see Prof Rambaut’s replies, claiming “disclosure would be likely to endanger the physical or mental health and safety of individuals”.
James Comer, the Republican congressman who secured the unredacted emails, said it showed that experts like Dr Fauci had taken the Wuhan lab leak theory “much more seriously” than they had let on.
Sir Jeremy has been approached for comment but had not replied at the time of publication.
 
Not sure a better place to put this, but people are apparently shocked again that Trump is in favor of the vaccines he tried to help get made. Seems like he's annoyed that Republican politicians aren't promoting his vaccine. Curious as to what Republican congressmen will do now.

Here is a good example of something the Left honestly just does not understand - nuance.
Right wing voters will still probably rally around Trump despite whatever they view on his pro vax stance, because they can either want him to win or because they can understand he's pro vax because he helped get the vax started, it's "his" vax.
As long as he stays against mandates and that sort of bullshit he should be fine tbh. Conservatives are better at logically saying "well this guy does say some dumb shit or do things I disagree with but he's better on the whole" whereas Dems do it superficially while everyone works to undermine the person they pretend to rally around - in reality since there are so many factions there is no unified standard of Party Purity. If Biden said a gamer word on mic for example that would legit tank him faster than getting 13 troops killed in Afghanistan.

Its kinda fun too because the left seems utterly convinced that no one will vote for trump because he's pushing the vax. They're getting high off their own farts again, essentially, and it'll probably turn out to be a stinker for them.
 
This has always been Trumps stance. He's pro vaccine anti mandate. Is he going to have to say that constantly?
Yes because people are fucking retards who can't be bothered to LISTEN TO THE WORDS THAT ARE BEING SPOKEN.

I don't think it would, I think it would have in the primary but now they are so deep in the sunk cost fallacy that if he were to stand up in the state of the Union and say "Niggers are afraid of being shot by cops." they would give it a complete pass.

On the left, if you are 99% on their side, you are their ENEMY. If you made a bad joke 20 years ago when you were a teenager, you are still a racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobe who deserved to be shunned from society no matter how much you grovel or beg forgiveness. You have to have 100% pure from the time of your birth or else you are literally Hitler. If you attended a debutant ball literally in the last century, you are an evil racist who should have known better when you were 15.
 
"...but feared further debate would harm science."

I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream
I cannot for the life of me find the source, but I am 90% certain at some point one country stopped releasing case numbers, and their literal argument was that they didn't want "anti-vaxxers to use the data against us." A.K.A, why the fuck do we have record highs when the country is 90+% vaccinated?

A guy on Polish Twitter has been trying to get our Ministry of Health to release the numbers of deaths of all Covid-vaccinated people. Not deaths from Covid - all natural deaths.

They responded that they won't give out the data because it could be used to bolster the anti-vax side. But they're plenty happy with releasing deaths from coof.

What's also funny in our neck of the woods is that the form you sign when you get the coof contains the same kind of language you see when taking part in a medical experiment, while "regular" vaccines use different terminology.

Trump sticking to his vax guns is probably the Trump-est thing I've seen him do in a while.
Any rational politician in his position would have started dialing it back and never speak of it again under penalty of torture.

Every time Trump throws data the NPCs aren't expecting, causing them to segfault, requires the Alpha NPCs at MSNPC and the like to send them firmware updates to halt a system crash. It does more damage to the left than it does to his base. So in that regard it makes perfect sense. He's threaded the needle between "get vaxed" and "no the govvernment shouldn't force you" fairly effectively, which at the core of it is what his base supports most of all.

Of course, if the Vax does turn out to cause AIDS like preliminary data is showing, well, this might come back to bite him.

Maybe that was it and I got the example wrong. I know some country said something about not releasing the data because it could bolster the anti-vaxx side.

Thank you.

On top of all that, it shows consistency in an environment where everybody is used to their politicians going with whatever they think people want to hear regardless of whether that directly contradicts the opinion they held the day before.

Buy ammo. Presuming this is as bad as the last time, it's lasting until 2026 at least. (Note: It won't be as bad nice as last time (the 1970s depression) given the M1 and M2 numbers are so bad they are no longer allowing the public to SEE them.)

A lot of non white voters would tolerate Biden using every racial slur in the state of the union since the level of fear of the non urban soy drinking white is at an all time high. A lot of niggers, gooks, spics and pajeets believe going outside the cities means the KKK is running around and that Trump was going to deport and murder a lot of them. Plus some of them are opportunists tribal type lot themselves who seek to enrich themselves while America burns and the Republicans generally are not down for that compared to the Democrats just giving the whole show away like Newsom with wanting to give healthcare to illegals.

Well it is sort of like the post yesterday where some mongoloid on twitter lamented the fact that people against the vaccine were now "accidentally right" about the vaccine not working, so they wanted the numbers to be hidden.

Everything the leftist, stateist, etc. want hidden/silenced is always the truth they dont want revealed. I know this is elementary to everyone here but it has never been so starkly demonstrated as it is now.

What interests me with Trump calling out people that won't admit they got the vaccine is it puts guys like Tucker Carlson on the spot too (I think being at Fox he's required to be vaccinated or at least his staff is). As he has had quite a few interviews with podcasters like Bret Weinstein and whoever else suggesting vaccinations could be dangerous.
