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

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?

How is this brining unity?

unironically, by unifying everyone against Biden.

Forgot to mention that later down the line a lot of the phone communication through the network mentioned above got shuffled through this building in new york. The whole grid has since been labeled as the "long lines" relating to the relative distance each tower was from one another and how they basically just traced lines across the entire US.

Not a whole lot is known about the goings on of this structure during the cold war and before digital communications, but an engineer for the massive mechanical servers and battery banks this thing housed was interviewed a few years ago. Whatever happens in the building now is less known, but it can probably be assured it's a major five eyes surveillance point even now. No windows, high security, those giant holes are purely for ventilation. Referred to as titanpointe these days.

Fucking ominous at night.

[Scale Smerch]

Catching up on the thread's latest tangents late (since rum & cokes never go well with cognitive thought), but regarding the Supreme Court discussion something which came to me is how screwed the Dems are when it comes to actually replacing any of their liberal members.

Breyer for example probably refuses to resign over selfish reasons, but it's also down to the Senate makeup. If either Sinema or Manchin refuses to support the Dem nominee they're dead in the water - and best be sure both will make use of their power to ensure the progressive wing suffers hard. A lot have forgotten that 50 + 1 majority screws hard with any idealistic fantasies given who functions as the keystone in the affair. Couple on the potential of Elder winning the California recall (which is not zero) and the fact we're now in midterm politicking and you start to see how deep the current Dem leadership have dug themselves.

The Biden admin and Dem congress have truly created the perfect storm of disaster and are now reaping the whirlwind. The only question is how Biden and Pelosi intend on compromising with their failures because the upcoming months are only going to get worse for them politically as midterm season begins anew. Rest assured for everything we've seen so far the best has yet to begin.

I never really thought it was a big secret that there were ADA emplacements around DC. It's all under Operation Noble Eagle, which does specify protecting federal agencies as well.

Oh good. I'm going to have look into this more. January 6th keeps making less sense the more you learn.

I still can't believe the entire untied states government dinosaus melted down and sperged this hard just to try and own this man.

It's almost unreal. Imagine ruining your party and damaging it to the point of no return, causing IDpol politics to ruin culture and life for decades and blowing millions on throwing everything you can on this guy. You legit had race riots funded and supported to make this goofy asshole look bad.

Donald Trump didn't drain the swamp, he just made it boil so fucking hard it became a desert. Lol.

The Confederates were no saints either and part of the problem we suffer from the 13 percent. Basically it was the elitist assholes in the North and the elitist pricks in the South tired of each other's shit and decided, why not just settle it once and for all. John Brown was just the perfect person to kick off the party.

They wanted to import more slaves because cheap labor, which screwed over poor whites. They wanted niggers to count towards the electoral college but didn't want them to vote, which is where the 3/5 compromise came from. Its weird that liberals see that compromise as racist when the so called white slave holders they hate, also hated the 3/5 compromise. And when importation of slaves was stopped, the nigger lovers decided to breed more niggers and even fuck a couple of them and then sell the bastards they sired.

It was a feudal society with a small minority planter class at the top running the show, who wanted their cake and eat it too. The didn't even industrialize and wonder why years down the road, the north was able to keep producing guns. These morons even managed to piss off one of the greatest war heros from the South, Andrew Jackson, who threatened to do what Lincoln was forced to do 40 years later. Between Lincoln and Jackson, every president served one term. They helped pass laws like the fugitive slave act and the Dredd Scott decision basically was when the nation said fuck it and broke into two camps. I wonder how black was the South back then as thanks to the Jim Crow era, a great migration of darkies leaving the South happened. Basically gives a good idea of how black the South was.

Looking at how even Southern politics are conducted today, there are not something I am down for. Ask the Louisianians who recently got fucked by the GOP over constitituonal carry. Or the entire states of Georgia and Arizona getting cucked hard over Biden winning both elections. A fucking spic, one fucking beaner rigged the presidential and senate elections for Arizona to have Democrats at the federal level.

TLDR, America was racist, elitist and incompetent since its inception. But we have multiple sides whitewash history to cater to their warped perspective on America. The Civil War being a common thread of such ignorance.

Both of my parents worked at the phone company and seeing this building brings back the nostalgia of visiting them at work in the Oakland phone company building which felt like a more scaled down but nonetheless important communications building. I remember seeing lines and lines of big 70's and 80's computers in long white rooms when being shown around.

Here's One Wilshire of Los Angeles which is one of the most important fiber optic hubs in the Pacific Rim and an endpoint for undersea communcation cables.

Is the level of disobedience unusual, how widespread it is through-out all Governors or typical? It is difficult for me to judge...

We have always had little pops of resistance but it can often be within a state in opposition to a governor. For instance, Oregon counties last year complaining about Portland and creating alliances within sheriff organizations to prosecute rioters. Or in Virginia, counties passed "Second Amendment sanctuary" resolutions that said they were not going to comply with certain gun control laws. They were somewhat toothless but were pretty big symbolic acts of resistance.

And sometimes that's all they need to be to make people back down. If you are not willing to send in soldiers, and you aren't because it would be an optics disaster, then just compromise on the law, and everyone will be happy.

The article is complete trash:

This doesn't work. The people killed that day were innocent. I don't feel any responsibility for the bullshit schemes our governments do without telling us. It all falls on them. I am never going to feel guilty for what they have done. Every time we try to reform them, they scapegoat innocent Americans like this article. I have nothing but contempt for them and nothing but respect for the common people of this country who have been made to suffer for mistakes our rulers will not hold themselves accountable for.

Recognizing this and recognizing that they are absolute enemies does not require you to give up your beliefs, it requires you to not believe in theirs.

and I would argue the one being forced on to us now isn't just unfair, but satanic and evil, in its origins, methods, and destination.

They have a totalizing belief system that operates as a religion, or as you say, an antireligion, with good and evil switched. I think there is already a clear difference between us and them, as it's a stretch for them to say "leaving people alone" is too dramatic an imposition for us to put on them, that that is totalizing. We don't believe in their ideology because it requires force to impose, and they want to impose things not previously agreed upon by the states. It would not be a "purge" to expel all agents of the government who will not agree that the Constitution places limits on their powers, not a minimum of things they can meddle with. They are continuously breaking the contract of federalism, the nature of government, the definition of "inalienable." We can be rigid in those beliefs, which empowers and requires us to not compromise with people who will not sign onto the beliefs that built the country, that 13 colonies could all agree on without fracturing.

DeSantis is a good example of how to do it. Be petty and sly and totally dismissive of the left's policies because you can back up with facts that they are opposed to the Constitution. Lay it out and say you are fighting for something, for the people being screwed over by them. "We are doing this. Try to come up with an argument against it that doesn't twist the Constitution into a mockery." At least make them be honest about who they are before you stomp on their dreams.

Brilliant politics by Trump. He avoids the Cabal of former presidents who got us into Afghanistan and meets directly with the people who risked everything to save people's lives that day. The imagery is that he is proud of them, whereas any memorial ceremonies are somber. They are necessary and good too, but if Trump were to play nice with the former presidents, he would lose his identity as a man of the people, which going to New York City does while still honoring the lives changed there.

When he visited NYPD he also teased another run in 2024 the same way he did on Hannity (I can't say anything because of campaign finance rules but I think you'll be very happy). Does anyone actually know what rule he's referring to?

Basically it affects how much money they can raise and spend. You have to report "quarterly" earnings once you have an official campaign, so you can time it so you get a huge burst of funds and get to report how much money you made as positive free press. Before you announce, you have to keep track of how much money you are raising and spending to "test the waters," but you don't have to report it until it's official. So when he officially says he's running, they get to track all the money coming in from there on, and if it's weaker than expected, that's bad press for him. He wants to give himself a good starting point of his choosing.

I will stay sore forever after reading Gorsuch's book where he talked about how the Supreme Court trying to rewrite legislation is consistently a major cause of future problems, only to watch him make the decision that the 1964 Civil Rights Act totally meant to include gender identity the whole time you guys.

This is a misread of that ruling. It specifically said the act did NOT include gender identity. Instead, the arguments were that not allowing men to cross-dress at work is a form of sex discrimination, because a woman doing the same actions would not be punished. I hate the ruling, but the lawyers built their arguments around the language of the text, which they knew a textualist like Gorsuch would find persuasive. But it does not acknowledge gender identity at all, which is why Dems are still pushing the Equal Rights Act to try to codify it.

 

[Gehenna]

@ Trianon

About Gorsuch, hence my view on it being him testing the waters. He brought his own support down to such technical grounds that he really could have ruled either way. Read to me like him seeing if the left would be mollified by "In your favor, but still along sensible grounds". They were not, and he has been a lot more... Conservative with his rulings since. They rejected the compromise, so he rejects compromise.
