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

If the official story was that they got tanked while quail hunting, while practicing a Jackass stunt, that would be more believable than your explanation.

Nah, it is believable.

Dumb Faggots going into wrong spots while group hunting is not uncommon.

Yea I mean hate Cheney but in white trash communities like the one I grew up in that's like the third most common cause of death, it's not rare.

I saw this image and it got me thinking. It's supposed to be a criticism of post-Soviet countries that kept old bums in power, and specifically I saw it with some text alongside it discussing how a generation of people hoarding power for themselves weakens the political system of a nation and leaves it vulnerable after they die. I wonder, how does the US compare to some of these shitholes?

President	Vice Pres.	House Spkr.	Treasury Sec.	Fed Chair	Sec. of State	Sec. of Def.	Average
79	57	82	75	69	60	68	70

We make Russian oligarchs look youthful in comparison. Something to meditate on...

Anyone have further details on what we are seeing here, is this a body double?

A bit off topic but i fully recommend ClearURLS. It strips all that tracking shit from urls.

I have always been amazed at how the world's greatest powers inevitably end up as gerontocracies, be they democratic or authoritarian.

Well, who, generally speaking, has the largest breadth of lived experience and wisdom put into practice, as opposed to learning it from a book or other reference material?

Seems like Mitch the Bitch is doing what he does best. Hopefully this is all show.

Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has instructed Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) to work with Democrats to achieve “bipartisan” gun control legislation.

I hope it's not. Stomp on the accelerator. Once a man turns rebel in his heart, the enemy cannot sway him.

The brandon regime must be pretty happy about all those dead taco children. Now the liberal media is laser focused on the massacre and gun control. Not a word on all the starving babies or record high inflation and gas prices. Sadly though, this story will lose momentum in about a week and they'll have to go right back to taking it in the ass due to all their horrible policies. Distractions can't save them.

This isn't directed at you per se, but I just like to remark how stupid a number of you were when you said this whole thing would magically go away despite knowing full well that the Left never lets a crisis go to waste.

Lucy's teeing up the football again, Charlie McConnell!

There is no benefit to bipartisan compromising on gun control for Republicans. If they do it they piss off their voters, the Democratic idea of bipartisan compromise is we get what we want you get shit, and afterwards Democratic and media demagoguing of Republicans on the issue will not lessen in the slightest.

This time Lucy won't pull the football out! PrOmiSe!

The Democrats will use the Buffalo massacre, this recent massacre, and the possibility of Roe v. Wade being overturn to amp up their campaign season.

Unfortunately for them Roe V Wade being overturned is a nothing burger. Baris talked about polling that showed men are more likely to support abortion than women. Gun control on the other hand will enrage and drive out voters on the republican side.

Isn't the Roe decision due in a week or so? There's always a convenient distraction at hand, don't fool yourself! And no, they'll never see the hypocrisy in whiplashing from "we have to save the children" to "we have to have abortion rights".

Funny you mention that; I've always seemed to notice that most of the "abortion debate" is MEN getting angry at other MEN for opposing abortion. On the flipside, most pro-life rallies I see seem to have mostly women attending.

 

[Scale Smerch]

Nope, the Supreme Court only adheres to its own timeline and that is not known to anyone a this moment. It could be as early as next week or as late as July, we won't know until they announce it (or another leak further reinforces how much circumstances have changed).
