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

 

[WhiskeyJack]

You wanna see cringe, Crenshaw’s fake eyeball has nothing on his political ads:

 

[FunPosting101]

John Kerry, 80, insists he’s not retiring: ‘My age is the new 60′

Any joke I'd make here would likely be a borderline fedpost, so I'll just move along without comment.

You know what? I don't disagree with him on this. Age isn't the problem in and of itself, it's how severe the cognitive decline is. If he just has trouble remembering trivial things occasionally, or the occasional verbal gaffe, then who gives a fuck?

Biden, by contrast, is straight up demented at this point though, that's not so much a matter of age and more that he's had multiple brain aneurysms and even had to have surgery on his brain once. That kinda shit has long-term neurological consequences and that's what I think we're seeing right now with the dementia patient currently occupying the Oval Office.

 

[Gehenna]

Can you be a little more specific for us retards who aren’t well versed in the law?

The whole point of bringing up this massive conflict of interest push was to show how Willis was using it to enrich herself and therefore had tainted the entire process to the point that she had to be removed and the case moved to someone else. The next series of people above her who it would be passed to being Republican's who would drop this poisoned chalice in a heartbeat.

The judge's ruling was to acknowledge and confirm the conflict of interest, but rather than do the smart thing and just throwing her off the case and kicking it upstairs he decided to split the baby and just demand one of them leave the case.

This addressed a symptom of the conflict of interest not the actual cause. Willis and/or Wade -will- continue to try to enrich themselves off the case, meaning with the next instance of them doing so Trump's lawyers will haul it before the judge meaning that the judge will -again- have to bring people up to testify on the nature of the enrichment and make a ruling.... it will just be the exact same thing, again. Same people, same shit, entirely predictable.

From what I have seen logging into the shithole the mainstream is absolutely DESPERATE to push this sound bite the same way they did other lies about Trump but they are meeting a very lukewarm reception from anyone not already fully indocrinated into their bullshit. Doesn't help that so many of the faggots throwing a fit have been caught using the exact same word not even a few days ago to describe things like the firing of RNC RINOs and economic issues.

The whole RINO INFIGHTING BAD by the outside retards did shut the fuck up right quick.

Next cope is apparently church bad therefore child porn in schools good.

Right wing lawtube was blowing the judge up until the moment the decision dropped. It was kind of entertaining watching them flip. I agreed with most of them that he had to be pretty intelligent to be where he is at such a young age, but I think that worked against him. He's younger than me, so there was no way he grew up in a world where he wasn't introduced to social justice in one form or another. I'm starting to think Rittenhouse only got off because his judge was a fossil.

I don't think this is an ideological issue that caused this. He didn't do this for social justice. He did this because he's a coward even by judicial standards.

All judges are cowards, this one is a truly great example though. His decision means he -doesn't- have to sack the black woman and thus get shot at and kiiiinda gives things to Trump too by breaking this up but in the end only ensures this will come back to bite him. In short, he shied away from doing something definitive and only doomed himself in the process. This was 100% cowardice.

Rittenhouse got off because he killed a pedophile, a serial woman beater and blew the bicep off a burglar who pulled an illegal gun on him. Plus all the "victims" were white. REALLY fucking hard to sell that shit show to a jury.

 

[John.Doe]

All judges are cowards, this one is a truly great example though.

Like most myopic, cringing cowards, he thought that he could simply appease his way out the situation. This is exactly the wrong instinct - nobody appreciates weakness. Everyone respects strength. The people that had supported him before will turn from him, seeing that he lacks the courage to do whats right. His enemies will see that he is an easy target, and redouble their attacks.

This is, unfortunately, the majority of so-called 'Republicans' or 'conservatives' these days.

Gaza has Americans captured too? that's a damn shame, anyway...

 

[General Emílio Médici]

The Jan 6th people are being held hostage because they are being given a extremely convoluted process to deal with while in mostly solitary. Hillary out here giving Mike 30 Pieces the Uniparty seal of approval.

Also are there really americans in Gaza? Or are these "americans" double citizenship type americans?

Can't believe I'm saying this but fuck this sanctimonious, ego tripping, Medusa tripping politician.

Oh, like how Chupp was a no-nonsense Republican judge?

God almighty, when will people stop simping for men in black dresses?

This whole "bloodbath" thing is really proving to be an amazing, if not annoying, litmus test. I'm fucking flabbergasted.

It's a much worse, poorly done rehash of the "very fine people on both sides" hoax that they are throwing at the wall desperate to see if it sticks.

A wave of anti-government protests, uprisings, and armed rebellions reminiscent of the 'Arab Spring' in the Middle East more than a decade ago is starting to emerge across the Caribbean region, triggered by the ascent of civil war in Haiti.

This past weekend, the latest uprising unfolded in Santiago, Cuba, about 800 kilometers (500 miles) from Havana. Hundreds of residents took to the streets, decrying hours-long power blackouts and food shortages.

CUBANS HIT STREETS AGAIN: FACING GHOSTS OF 2021’S BRUTAL CRACKDOWN

Protests flare up in Cuba, recalling the grim aftermath of 2021 - over 1,400 detained, torture cases, and silenced artists. As tensions soar, global calls for action against Cuba’s human rights abuses… https://t.co/uAiybzgDYG pic.twitter.com/LMyRsgmujC

According to Reuters, Cuba has plunged into an "unprecedented economic crisis" in recent years, "stoking a record-breaking exodus that has seen upwards of 400,000 people migrate to the United States."

On X, Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel confirmed the social unrest:

"Several people have expressed their dissatisfaction with the situation of electrical service and food distribution.
"The disposition of the authorities of the Party, the State and the Government is to attend to the complaints of our people, listen, dialogue, explain the numerous efforts that are being carried out to improve the situation, always in an atmosphere of tranquility and peace."

Díaz-Canel then blamed anti-government "terrorists" based in the US for causing trouble:

On Facebook, the US Embassy urged the communist government to respect the protests:

"We are aware of reports of peaceful protests in Santiago, Bayamo, Granma and elsewhere in Cuba.
"We urge the Cuban government to respect the human rights of the protesters and attend to the legitimate needs of the Cuban people."

State-run media outlet CubaDebate said police had arrived in Santiago to "control the situation" and "prevent" further violence.

The key question is whether the uprising will spread, especially considering it's unfolding in America's backyard.
