US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[RA-5C Vigilante]

A quick look on twitter shows a lot of people are upset about Rand Paul stopping the 40 Bil.
All of them have Ukie flags in their names. All of them have the same outraged, uninformed opinion.
And all of them 17 years ago would have shrieked about Bush being a war monger for doing less.
I hope we finally collapse, even if I starve, I can spend my last days watching the retards around me suffer.

It's Twitter - I'm not sure you should expect consistency from them.

Also, just wanted to say that I dig the handle and avatar pic - the A-5 is peak cold war jet aesthetics.

Oh god no its another Kamala.

I thought the cutthroat world of politics would weed out the nervous laughers from ever climbing the ranks, now I wonder how much political engagement being corrupted by social media has undermined traditional public speaking skills.
We have an established track record now (not just Kamala, other Dems have this weakness, just look at AOC) of people rising the ranks through their online engagement and then getting hammered, even by an initially friendly press, over the course of their time in public life because of gaffes.

You're rubbing it into their faces, right? It's no fun if you're not telling them "no mean tweets! The economy is in tip top shape! I dunno why you're complaining! Most popular president in history!" right back into their faces when they complain to you.

I've done this and they experienced no regret or just said that biden is better than trump no matter what. I'm in a very blue area and the programming holds strong.

COVID/Trump news coverage from 2015 on has been nothing but demoralization. These people could have Biden kill their families/pets (knowing libs, they would care more about the pets than family) and it would change nothing.

Sometimes I wonder if I want America to go to shit just to see the look on the NPC's faces.

Their faces ain't purdy. But the Honkening is indeed coming. Look, I'm a Boomer and for whatever that's worth, we've seen all the shit happening right now happen before.

They didn't deal with it well the first time. And (IMHO) they're refusing to deal with it at all right now and pointing fingers in ten thousand directions why it's not their fault.

Command and control. Step up to the fucking plate and fucking do something, anything.

They don't have an ounce of that within this administration. Not even a gram let alone an ounce.

No doomer, just an old fucker seeing it for what it is.

FDA claims to be easing the rules for importing baby formula:

WASHINGTON — The White House on Thursday said the Food and Drug Administration will finally start clearing the way for imports of baby formula from overseas to address nationwide shortages — months after it shut the main US manufacturer of the products over a salmonella scare.

But the Biden administration failed to provide any details about what specific changes would take place, an estimate of how long it would take for the crisis to pass or even when President Biden was first briefed about the shortfall.

The shortage has hit some states especially hard and is linked to a large recall by Abbott Nutrition that began in February due to safety concerns at a Michigan factory. Two infant deaths are believed to be linked to bacterial contamination.

“The reason we’re here is because the FDA took a step to ensure that babies were taking safe formula,” press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters, sidestepping the issue of why no governmental authority sought to find alternatives to the plant to stem the looming shortage for months.

“There were babies who died from taking this formula, so they were doing their jobs,” she insisted.

A White House fact sheet said that “the FDA will, in the coming days, announce specific new steps it is taking concerning importing certain infant formula products from abroad,” though a senior administration official said on a White House-organized press call that they could not share additional information on the FDA plans.

A loosening of import restrictions could have a significant impact. Currently, about 98% of US-consumed formula is produced domestically.


The factory in Sturgis, near the Indiana border, has been shut since the February recall. Ultimately, no salmonella was discovered.

Despite Abbott revealing earlier this week that it could resume production within two weeks pending FDA approval, Psaki insisted that “the FDA is not going to approve manufacturing again unless they are certain of the safety” of the facility. Meanwhile, though the crisis has brewed for months, Psaki declined to say when the president was first told about the matter, saying only: “I’m not going to get into internal briefings; he’s been made aware of it through the process.”
As nursing mothers become increasingly desperate in seeking out formula, the press secretary also blamed “hoarding” for fueling the crisis rather than give an answer about when the administration thought it would end.

“What we are seeing, which is an enormous problem, is hoarding — people hoarding because they’re fearful, that is one element of it. And people hoarding because they are trying to profit off of fearful parents,” she said, adding: “More infant formula has been produced in the last four weeks and in the four weeks preceding the recall.”

Biden declined to comment during his only public event Thursday — a brief evening photo op on the White House lawn with visiting leaders of ASEAN nations.

When asked if he had a message on the shortages, Biden replied, “Yes. But not on this occasion. I just spent a couple hours on the phone.”

Biden is urging state officials and the Federal Trade Commission to prevent price gouging and encouraging states to relax rules about the types of formula low-income parents can buy through the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program, the White House said in a release.

An administration official said on the press call that federal authorities have since February been working with states to relax WIC policies on formula purchases.

Also Thursday, Biden held calls with formula sellers Target and Walmart and manufacturers Reckitt and Gerber after Congressional Republicans accused him of an inept response to the crisis.

The presidential calls were closed to reporters, but Psaki said Biden inquired about how the government could help. The calls were not on Biden’s daily schedule and were only announced after House GOPers assembled for a press conference to condemn his response.


Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), the No. 3 House Republican and mother of a baby boy, slammed Biden’s handling of the crisis.

“I cannot think of a more harrowing, panicked crisis for parents to face than desperately trying to find food for their newborn babies,” she said.

Stefanik said her office first contacted the FDA about the issue in February and claimed that “we received no substantive response — Joe Biden simply has no plan.”

“My son Sam is nine months old. He is formula-fed and even in my trips to the grocery store in upstate New York, the shelves have been fairly empty,” she said. “There was an article just today about families having to drive hours.”

Stefanik added that “babies have been put to bed hungry” and argued that the White House “should have had a plan for the shortage months ago. Instead, bare-shelves Biden has continued to pass the buck.”

I've tried to talk to these people before, but it is really impossible. They will believe their phone over you. Even if you show them the quotes from an outlet they deem trustworthy, they will still refuse to change their mind. God help anyone who has family who think this way.

 

[Slappy McGherkin]

God help anyone who has family who think this way.

Agreed. Thank God I'm the patriarch in my family and have raised them with solid values. Never have this issue. They see it for exactly what it is with no commentary from me. But at least they call regularly to commiserate.

Same here.

One thing I learned, really fucking quick, is for all the "WE VALUE OUR HERO HEALTHCARE WORKERS!" when it came right down to it, it was all grey propaganda bullshit.

Dancing Tik-Tok nurses? Heroic.

Nurse who works in the ER? Fuck you, bitch, get back to work!
Medical tech who works with at risk elderly and disabled? Get back in the hole, peasant.

I have a close relative who works for in-home care where you're required to have a medical degree and the work is becoming absolute garbage. Longer hours, more stuff being added to the job, additional clients, and a lot of other bullshit.

They could literally make more working in a factory as the on-staff medic with better insurance, better hours, better pay, closer to home than what they're getting now. I told her flat out to tell the company that runs the State in-home care to go fuck themselves and go to work for the factory.

Looks like freebeacon fact checked the fact checkers regarding the crack pipe kits the Brandon admin denied sending out.

Spoiler: Spoiler

yes of course they contained fucking crack pipesView attachment 3274260

Man, they were oddly helpful handing that out. Especially in Richmond where they went above and beyond...

Well they are already open about the teen blood industry. I guess there must also be a black market for infant blood.

Infant? Na man you need to get younger. Think pre-birth blood.

FYI

The Clinton Foundation is currently sitting on almost $300 million dollars in both liquid cash and investments.

The Bitch isn't even close to broke and I'd say she's waiting for the DNC to get truely desperate before she offers to bail them out for 2024.

With just a small caveat of course...

$300,000,000 is nothing. She personally may be doing fine but that's not enough to finance a single presidential run, let alone bail out the DNC, especially after Buy Large Mansions kept an undisclosed but substantial sum for themselves... big enough the Dems are sending the IRS after them instead of just asking for the money.

I just have flashbacks to my family members screeching at me right before the election that life would be so much better under Biden and they were nasty about it to the point it is hard for us to speak today, but I never loved Trump or anything, I just said he was the lesser evil. That was enough to this day.

Poso really doesn't like Oz

Posobiec has lost his mind when it comes to Oz and the PA Senate primary. I understand shilling Barnette, because she is more MAGA aligned, but shilling McConnell stooge McCormick is laughable and shows he would side with anyone to get his way. He is acting like an emotional child about this and should have fucking ran himself if he hates the leading candidate so much.

Again, the field in PA is complete dogshit. Just write off the Senate candidate and pick either Oz or Barnette and focus on the governor since there are 3 good candidates there (that one should've went into the Senate race). The governor is what we need to unfortify PA completely.

EDIT:
Also, this is my opinion on "Gorilla Mindset" Cernovith that he is buddying up with.

It is god damn Rand Paul.

The man always votes no on anything that involves USA intervening in anything. If anyone shows surprise for this then they need to kill themselves because THEY ARE TOO STUPID TO LIVE.

 

[King Dead]

I'm honestly conflicted here. Obviously the country going down the toilet sucks but there are so many bugmen that called me a Nazi for saying Biden was too demented to be president who are shrieking and screaming bloody murder that thanks to Biden (whom they voted for) that they cannot afford their ultra consoooomerist bugman urban lifestyles.

it's pretty delightful.

Dems decided getting rid of Orange Man was more important than anything. May the collapse happen on their watch.

Let Them Eat Shit.

The 2020 election may end up going down as the greatest Pyrrhic victory in American politics. Sure, they got rid of Trump, but now they're flailing about with absolutely no plan whatsoever, more interested in passing the buck than stepping up to the plate, all while one crisis after another gets dropped on their laps. The president is a demented fool, the VP is a cackling whore, the House and Senate are led by evil old coots, and not a single one of them has anything going on between the ears beyond "how can I make more money off of this?"

I won't get too optimistic just yet, we're still six months out from the midterms, but if this ends up being a bloodbath for the Dems, it will be very well-deserved.

I thought the cutthroat world of politics would weed out the nervous laughers from ever climbing the ranks, now I wonder how much political engagement being corrupted by social media has undermined traditional public speaking skills.
We have an established track record now (not just Kamala, other Dems have this weakness, just look at AOC) of people rising the ranks through their online engagement and then getting hammered, even by an initially friendly press, over the course of their time in public life because of gaffes.

I think we're seeing the result of decades of Democrat leaders sabotaging anyone who might replace them. The last thing they want is for someone who's better looking, smarter, and more charismatic to come along and kick their moldering old asses to the curb, cutting off their easy paycheck and massive pension when they retire. So they make sure to keep them away while promoting those that pose no threat to them instead. Then when they finally do shuffle out of the building for the last time (sometimes off this mortal coil), their replacements do the same thing, one generation after another of incompetents succeeded by even more incompetents.

And now, you see the result: awkward, stupid assholes that are in way over their head.

I don't see any reason for Hillary Clinton to appear at the MET Gala unless shes panhandling for donations from celebs and high rollers again.

FDA claims to be easing the rules for importing baby formula:

So rather than expedite reopening a key manufacturing plant they would rather import from abroad? From countries who have knowingly poisoned their formula supplies through negligence? Full retard doesn't even begin to properly describe this administration.
