Biggest problem was not figuring out backlash to migrants..

Biden thought we have a ton of YIMBY's.. but we have more NIMBY's than YIMBY's.

Stuff like this definitely did not help where ever the migrants were shipped too from Texas..

YIMBYism is about building housing and infrastructure. It has nothing to do with immigration.

NIMBYism is also almost exclusively a state law issue, it has almost nothing to do with the feds. That’s why there isn’t a federal push to strip NIMBYs of their power to block construction, it’s a state thing.

didn't block it , they ran out of time

If the executive session had gone through, it wasn’t clear that the nominations would have made it through the Senate anyway due to possible opposition from Sens. Joe Manchin (I-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (I-Ariz.), along with Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who is viewed as an ally of Big Tech.


Manchin and Sinema voted against a procedural move last week that would have cleared the way for a Democratic majority on the National Labor Relations Board, a last-minute effort by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.).

No terrorism charge for him though. Just 1st and 2nd degree murder and 1st degree arson. Guess she wasn't a wealthy CEO.

How would this case be even remotely plausibly a terrorism case? That makes no sense to me. What was the political objective?

I think the terrorism charges for that CEO are excessive too but there’s at least some veneer there.

At least in terms of the English language, if not necessarily legal consequences (I'd leave that to the lawyers), "Terrorism" seems absolutely the correct term for that CEO shooting.

Though it should also have been the term used for, for example, all the historic lynchings, and most LGBT hate-crimes. A great deal of violent crime is largely about inspiring terror in a particular demographic group, and has implicitly political aims.

Also the line between terrorism and mental-health problems frequently seems a very fuzzy one to me.

Dang, maybe Trump was right, other countries are emptying their asylums and sending them here.

How else do you explain someone lighting a person on fire and just watching them burn.

Using those veneers against us is the real terrorism.

Have to ask the 70 some odd million that voted for Trump to do that to America.

Question: Now that you know that Kamala loses, if you could, would you rewind time and cancel the Kamala campaign and let Biden have a shot at it?

I mean that's really a stupid question dude. Of course it it's better to try anything than losing.

But Biden is a fucking asshole because he's still ignorant that him deciding to run again is what really fucked the Democrats. His legacy is completely tarnished because of that, that's what he should be regretting.

Or maybe it was inflation, immigration, international unrest and reaction against overemphasis on identity politics/gender issues. Nah, that couldnt be it.

I dont think you can call Biden an a-hole he was the one fading already early in his term... If you the one fading per definition you're not really responsible anymore. His team on the other hand...
