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

 

[Cuckoman]

I think anyone with two braincells knows the whole world is in for a hard time.

China is hiding some massive problems with its internal real estate market that could very well bring down the whole government as something on the order of like 75% of Chinks are heavily invested in it.

Europe is looking at a massive cut down if Russia does indeed shut off the gas lines. Natty Gas is used for far more then just heating some faggots house and without the Russian pipelines estimates of EU reserves are some where between zilch and nadda.

And don't even get me started on the US and Canada. At least Mexico hasn't totally destroyed its internal market, yet.

We've had 15 years of unprecedented growth pushed by the free money being handed out by the governments of the world. But there ain't no such thing as a free lunch so now we gota pay the piper for the easy times with some down right dangerous times.

And we have to rely on Joe "fuck it up" Biden to lead us through these dark days.




And people say God has no sense of humor.

Buy staples like rice and beans. White rice can be stored for 30 years in an aiirtight container with some basic oxygen-absorber pellets.
Buy 100-200 pounds of rice. Buy as much canned veggies/fruits/meat/... you can store.
If for no other reason : this shit will NOT drop in price over the next few years so if you don;t want to think of yourself as a prepper, think of it as an investment. Next year you can sell it off at twice the price.

Also, Rule #1 for a big pantry is you NEVER TALK ABOUT THE PANTRY.
This will be especially important IF SHIT HITS THE FAN. Because when the zombies can not get the stuff at the store they will come to your house and take it instead.

Black Lesbian has this really bad, dismissive laugh for every question before answering that is almost as bad as Psaki's "you're well aware" attempt to appeal to intelligence. The difference is at least Psaki has experience being a slime peddler.

Someone needs to tell black diversity muff diver to stop reading plagiarized talk points because that assignment was due THREE WEEKS AGO.

I knew Hunter was a coomer, but I didn't know he was this fucking much of one.

I now officially wonder what will happen to the Biden family once Joe finally dies from his health problems.

It's cute a lot of you think the Secret Service isn't anymore compromised than the FBI, that it's the lone institution untouched by the swamp.

Point taken, however: they're still protecting Trump. Why haven't they slipped ricin into Trump's diet coke yet?

Those guys are indoctrinated to die and kill for the president's safety. They'd have to be vetted for unquestioning loyalty.

Waiting for the activation phrase.

The reality is simple: Upon joining the secret service, you‘re effectively set for life and can just do your job. No one is gonna expect you to take out a sitting or former President “or else” simply because the idea of that happening to the POTUS means that literally everyone in Congress is next. People in general hate Congress, but half the country loves Trump.

Also, as the incident in South Korea shows, they probably hold their opinion of you as a person in higher regard than orders from the political sphere. Everyone knows Hillary is punishment detail, there were leaks about Biden’s behavior and Obama’s ego. But all Trump leaks came from side staffers, not the Secret Service.

Personally I've always heard that while God has a sense of humor, you can only enjoy it when you're not part of the joke.

I can't imagine anyone would try to pressure a secret service member into assassinating anyone, because while our retarded aristocrats are definitely stupid, I'm pretty sure they'd realize the immediate issue with making a political weapon out of their own security.

The elite are wary of making the Secret Service into the new Praetorian Guard.

I didn't say it, but that's exactly who and what I was thinking of when I made my post.

A side staffer leaked that one of his kids was intimate with an SS agent. That's how far it went.

So what exactly is going to happen soon when the price of gas gets too high for the working class to afford?

 

[Disc]

Have they stopped trying to say that actually they new about everything that's going wrong 6 months in advance?
It seems like that was a strat that was adopted for a while, around the time of Ultra MAGA being coined. "oh, we're not being caught blindsided/bullshitting out our asses, we've been aware of this issue for 6 months!"
It seems like they stopped once they realised that didn't actually make their responses any stronger, and made their lack of responses even worse.

So what exactly is going to happen soon when the price of gas gets too high for the working class to afford?

Transport companies will rapidly increase their shipping fees to cover the shortfall, which will rapidly increase the cost of basic goods, causing extreme inflation.

I feel bad for black lesbians. She's like, really bad for this job. Imagine getting hyped as the "FIRST BIPOC QUEER RETARD IN THIS POSTION" or whatever and having to work with this administration, holy shit, lol.

"Can you explain why the President keeps stating that Russia is responsible for the economic downfall here in America? Can you please give us just one good answer?"
"UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.... Fuck."

don't. much like Psaki, this a future she chose, not a grave.

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/06/01/jamie-dimon-says-brace-yourself-for-an-economic-hurricane-caused-by-the-fed-and-ukraine-war.html

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon says he is preparing the biggest U.S. bank for an economic hurricane on the horizon and advised investors to do the same. “You know, I said there’s storm clouds but I’m going to change it… it’s a hurricane,” Dimon said Wednesday at a financial conference in New York. While conditions seem “fine” at the moment, nobody knows if the hurricane is “a minor one or Superstorm Sandy,” he added. “You better brace yourself,” Dimon told the roomful of analysts and investors. “JPMorgan is bracing ourselves and we’re going to be very conservative with our balance sheet.“

b-b-b-but you said the economy was coming back stronger than ever!!!!!!!

What I said yesterday. The MSM quadrupling down on stupid with articles about employers are looking to hire, but you're too fucking lazy to apply and work! Why your laziness is the reason the economy has now been fully vaporized!

Depending on your state, they will issue something called a "Gas Tax Suspension" like they are doing here in NY (Archive: https://archive.ph/PTJb3 )

Drivers should now be paying less at the pump.

The state, as well as Nassau and Suffolk counties, suspended some of the sales tax for gasoline on Wednesday.

In both Nassau and Suffolk counties, the sales tax on gas amounts over $3 is suspended through the end of the year.
Long Islanders should expect to save more than 20 cents on each gallon.

The average price of a gallon of regular unleaded on Long Island is $4.96. Sixteen cents will be subtracted from the state gas tax and around 4.5 cents from the county tax.

For example, an Exxon on Old Country Road reduced its regular unleaded price from $5.09 a gallon on Tuesday to $4.83 on Wednesday.

"It's a good thing," says Muhammad Ahmad, manager of the Exxon-Bolla Market. "Gas is a necessity for everyone, for job orders, businessmen, any purposes."

Some Long Islanders say they have not yet seen a change in price, which is something that the Nassau County executive admits could take time.

"It's going to take a little while because basically it's just implemented today," says Bruce Blakeman. "It goes into effect pursuant to state and county law. It'll take a few days to get there."

The Suffolk County Department of Labor has made outreach to the Long Island Gasoline Retailers Association and individual stations to alert them of the county's gas tax cap.

The Consumer Affairs division will begin gas price surveys on Thursday.

Anyone who does not notice a discount at gas stations can report it to the New York attorney general or the Nassau and Suffolk departments of consumer affairs.

Yeah you gotta take in to account some touchstones in the later 70s and even into the 80s or 90s. But overall you're talking about an inversion: up to 76 or so there was an embarrassment of riches in music; you've gotta really think to come up with duds. After that, the gold starts to run out and it gets harder and harder to pick out really great albums or singles. By...1995? ish or so music is effectively dead.

Music is a product.

Remember the saying you have a face for radio?

now its not enough to be good or talented you have to look the part etc etc.

I beg to disagree

You don't even need to be good or talent. All you have to do these days is just moan into a microphone and post will just fix it with pounds of autotuning.

Music isn’t dead, you just have to go on a damn spelunking expedition to find the good stuff.

 

[Open Window Maniac]

Outside music, did anything good come out of the 70s?

M*A*S*H

You know shit is getting serious when the government is giving up tax revenue.

At least Mexico hasn't totally destroyed its internal market, yet.

It is hard to destroy an internal market if the Cartels have a gun to your head and will fucking murder your ass if you fuck with their cash.

 

[Scale Smerch]

And that will do absolutely nothing after a few days. For example up here in Leafland a few provinces suspended their gas tax. Price dropped 10 cents or so. A week later price was up 20 cents. It's a feel-good placebo at best.

Imagine 2020's fiery yet peaceful protests, only more fiery and even more peaceful.
