US Joe Biden News Megathread - The Other Biden Derangement Syndrome Thread (with a side order of Fauci Derangement Syndrome)

Not open for further replies.
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?
 
After the mid-terms. If they can't keep control over Congress but ESPECIALLY the House, I would not be shocked if the top people in the DNC don't try and sell Biden and a couple of other high profile scalps to the GOP in exchange for some sort of cease fire/armistice to avoid the shit show that will happen with the GOP controlling the House and basically impeaching Biden multiple times and basically raining hellfire and damnation on the DNC complete with banning all Democrats from committee posts.
I don't think it will help. The GOP has no real control over its electoral base either at this point. Trump has some influence, but look at how his own strongest supporters act whenever vaccines come up. They won't be appeased with performative moves like impeachments and one politician they hate getting replaced with another they hate. They're after the local issues, the things propping up the entire fragile system above it. Tearing out the guts of CRT at the ground floor right in education doesn't give the politicians anything to work with, they just lose. You can't actively backroom politics to stop it because its not one machine politician pitting the base against another, its the base itself out on the warpath, and the base doesn't do backroom dealings. Trying to go after the actual people leads to massive PR boondoggles like trying to flag parents as domestic terrorists. None of their tools or gameplans can deal with this now that the people are actively fighting for the change instead of asking someone else to fight for it for them, or taking a "live and let live" attitude.

The Democrats have awoken the sleeping giant. You can't backroom politics to appease a bear that just started on a rampage, your choices are run, fight, or die. They don't got the resources to fight it, and nobody is particularly interested in dying for the grift, so its gonna be rats scurrying before it.
 
It's January 17th. Either Schumer rams in the "muh Voting Right" legislation, or he's more of a faggot than he already is.

Shit or get off the nation-destroying pot, Chuck.
They already made that play, didn't they? The trick they're doing is the NASA bill.

Specifically, they're scrapping the NASA bill and just replacing it in place with the Voting Rights Bill and pretending that's at all acceptable.

House approved it, Senate Approved a slightly different version, It went back to the House for reconciliation... So the House replaced the Bill with an entirely different Bill in everything but name. Now it goes through reconciliation (I.e., no Filibuster) instead of through the normal process.

"An Unusual Move." What a polite way to say "wow, this is bullshit even for the DNC." They're getting more desperate by the day.

yeah it seems both GOP and Dem have to deal with "GRASSROOTS! RISE UP! . . . NO! NOT LIKE THAT!"
 
There are already people that are looking into other candidates for 2024. The writing is on the wall that he and Harris are done before they even started. Nothing is working in their favor. I just wish something drastic would happen to speed up their decline. It's literally depressing to witness.
The most unfortunate thing is that this is as fast as the train goes. You can't get faster than this, not unless Biden literally has a stroke and becomes comatose. And Biden's had aneurysms before, back when he was far healthier.

With any luck, those were practice aneurysms. Who knows, maybe he'll just go full Scanners on live TV, at this point anythings possible.

Except in a battle of grassroots vs grassroots, the democrats are fucked - The Independents seem mostly agreeable with republican grassroot movements, whereas the grassroot dems are the far left dems demanding to do wild irreversible shit to children.

The one thing Dems can be thankful for is that grassroots activism in their party is nothing like the beast GOP grassroots activism might one day become, if the base manages to stay active and diligent enough. The anti-establishment camps of each party have different dynamics with the opposing establishment camps.

Progressives might dislike the centrists in the DNC but they live in fear of the Republicans enough that they will still vote for the establishment, albeit reluctantly. That's why Bernie and AOC are servile creatures who ultimately bow to leadership. Populists in the GOP meanwhile have a "I'd rather spare my enemy than a traitor" mentality and they act like it. The fate of every Republican representative who voted to impeach Trump is a warning.

You can't take back a childhood of masks.

You can't take back making your child take the vaccine.

You can't take back ruining your child's childhood, especially continuing to after these weaker variants.

You can't take back forcing hormones on your child because you're psychotic and couldn't handle getting the "wrong" chromosomes.

You can't take back letting your child take those hormones when they're getting groomed.

You can't take back not fighting against these indoctrinating schools.

And the list goes on... But one thing is clear: Fauci empowered the femcels.

Did it make that weird Transformers sound?
 
Saw these on imgur.

Not sure why Twitter and MSNBC seem to think they've uncovered some huge conspiracy.

Goldfish memories. The DNC made a massive push in 2016 for delegates to ignore who their states voted for and defect for Hillary. It was necessary to save democracy lol. There's not enough rope in the world for these assholes. Some state republicans filmed themselves doing it while the DNC bought prime time ad time on every major network to achieve the same goal.

Wait no filibuster? The House doesnt even need to reapprove it? But a majority vote is still needed right? How is this even allowed?

Through incredible amounts of jewery only an experienced member of a country's legislature is capable of. Don't worry, it still needs to go to a majority vote, and that's when Sinema and Manchin stonewall it.

It's allowed because despite it not being allowed, it's not actually against the rules, which means if you're a dickhead you can do it and dare everyone else to stop you. Which is what the DNC is doing, and if the GOP gets the House but not the Senate back, the GOP should do right back to the DNC every single bill until they change the rules to prevent it somehow.

The rule is simple. Lefty tactics are ok, until the right uses them, then they become the worst things ever conceived of by humanity. If you want the left to stop being able to use a tactic, use it against them and dial it up to 11.

maga pedes are high on copium
I visited patriots.win after a while, they are sucking never trumper Youngkin for minor stuff and whining about muh doomers hurting the party and winning means losing 90% of the issue at hand bbbbbut we got 10% so its okay.

unlike the retarded but principed lolbertarians, they will stick to the party line so long they can own with facts and logic the other party.

they might get their 5 minutes of rage but will go back to the pod with a smug smile. at least i did my part and wasnt a doomer

It originated from reddit so it's no surprise they think just like liberal redditors who want to own the chuds.
 
Youngkin's only on Day 2 but he's being put to the test already. Schools in some counties, namely Arlington (but also including Fairfax, Alexandria and Henrico) have ignored his executive order and are still requiring masks. A reporter asked him how he would respond, he pointed out that he gave schools a week to react to his order and then said that Arlington isn't listening to parents. Youngkin says he'll use "every resource" to make them drop the mandate.

Twitter and Facebook's gonna need to have the Indians work overtime enforcing that.
Libs are kicking up an absolute shitfit over Youngkin's opt-out order. Here's the rundown of the arguments I've seen.

Virginia has a law in place that says school boards make the decisions when it comes to how to run local schools.
Liberals are arguing hard for this now, but they pushed trans policies on every school board in the state last year. All of them had to take a vote to amend their policies to be in line with the state, and parents turned out in angry droves.

Virginia has a law in place that says schools need to do whatever is practicable to keep schools COVID safe and try to follow CDC recommendations.
This law was passed with a bipartisan vote last year. It guarantees that schools will remain open in person for every child. It has vague "follow the CDC guidelines and do your best" language. However, the bill is set to expire in August, and the CDC has already stated that masks are not effective in reducing transmission. So it's not likely to be something that will stop Youngkin.

Virginia's Constitution includes a section saying that "a parent has the fundamental right to make decisions concerning the upbringing, education, and care of the parent's child."
Youngkin's executive order says that any parent subject to a local mask mandate may opt out of the mandate without providing a doctor's or religious exemption note, or without having to offer any explanation. The EO operates under the logic that the Constitution provides the "check" on any law passed by the Legislature. Therefore, a school board can create their basic guidelines for COVID mitigation, but a parent has the final right of refusal, as noted in the state Constitution.

There is also an on-the-books law that says wearing masks in public is prohibited, which was never overwritten except through executive order from the last governor. So there's that.

So while rogue school boards are stating they will force mask mandates and ignore Youngkin, they have also been restricting Facebook comments on their announcement posts, while teachers promise to put unmasked kids out in the hallway to learn if they're not allowed to force them to mask. On the internet. In plain sight.

And the national Dems can't keep their mouths shut.

Virginia is going to be really interesting for a while.

So, Jen is concerned if there might be unmasked kids in her kids school.
Me wonders if she is also concerned if Biden has unsupervised access to her kids on "bring your kid to work day" ?

The only even vaguely thought-provoking and interesting argument I've seen libs provide is "If Youngkin cares about parents rights so much, he should let parents decide if they want school mandates". All the rest is just drivel.

What I find very interesting is that Loudoun County isn't defying his executive order.
:thinking:

Yeah, I get the logic of the school boards being closest to the people and subject to elections, but also rights are meant to be exercised individually. Hence why Obamacare can mandate all employers pay for birth control while the Little Sisters of the Poor don't have to because it would be a violation of their religious rights. Youngkin is saying "we have these parental rights in the Constitution, and they will be protected., and anyone can make use of them." I think it's at least a very good guidepost for any future lawsuits that get filed. Pretty good argument.

In general, I'm a fan of governors saying "well, you can't go this far" instead of telling people how far they MUST go. Difference between mandating masks and mandating that you can't mandate masks.
