Dang, when I heard the weather report I was hoping for pneumonia.

Obama’s inauguration had the coldest conditions since Reagan’s and he still had a massive crowd. Trump is a pathetic little coward who’s scared to death of a small crowd size and everyone making fun of him by doing that gesture Obama made in his convention speech.

I can’t even figure out what you’re trying to say here.

They did vote for it and they are going to get what they voted for, good and hard.

He stopped giving his base a second thought the moment the election results were in, when it became Trump First. He has zero fucks to give y’all magats any more now that you’ve served your purpose, suckas.

It’s called facing reality and dealing with it, which isn’t nearly as much fun as mindlessly bashing oversimplified interpretations of click-bait headlines. Sure, it’s nice to play the game online where you pick one issue and ignore all the other issues no matter how important they are, but in the real world you have to do the best you can do. The consequences of vetoing the bill would be huge, while one of the articles posted elsewhere in the comments here[1] talks about the number of children who could be affected and that there are very few circumstances where the provision in the bill would have an impact (e.g. it only disallows treatments that would result in sterilization, which doesn’t include puberty blockers, etc.). But you’re obviously not interested in seriously considering the details and practicalities of the real world situation, just enjoying railing against Biden, so have fun with that.

Tell us you have no idea how the government works without telling us you have no idea how the government works.

I wonder what would happen to someone who did a video like that except with a dummy of a CEO? I suspect the reaction would be huge amounts of screaming, condemnation, and an arrest for promoting terrorism. But this video? it’s juuuust fine. Nothing will happen to her, probably not even having her video taken down.

No, not enough time to send it back and the R’s knew exactly what they were doing here.

God when will people stop falling for this crap, this is exactly the culture war repubs are waging. Half of them don’t even give a crap about shitting on LGBTQ+, what they care about is shitting on the Dems so R’s can stay in power. They put the poison pill in a bill that Biden has no choice but to sign, JUST TO GET HEADLINES LIKE THIS, so that progressives will blame Biden and the democrats instead of the magats. And you fall for it every time. Sure, sometimes you also blame the R’s for actually doing the bad things, but you always blame democrats when they aren’t able to stop R’s from doing the bad things. You all might hate the military but we kind of need one and if we just shut it down we’re leaving ourselves vulnerable. What you are doing by blaming Biden for this is like saying yeah what the rapist did was wrong but she didn’t fight him off hard enough, she must have wanted it. smh

dammit

Not sure what age I was, maybe 4. I thought the music on the radio was live, that the musicians went to the radio station to sing and it was broadcast from there.

Look at those shoes she’s wearing. As a woman, I wish women would stop capitulating to society’s/fashion’s demand to wear shoes like this, that are made to cripple your ability to keep a sure footing, let alone run, and absolutely ruin your feet over time. Of course if you don’t do it you’re (gasp) not “fashionable”, but that’s only because these are the options you have to choose from unless you buy your own shoe factory or something.

I could go on a longer rant about it but I’ll stop there. But when you wear shoes like that at 84 it’s only a matter of time. Going down a marble staircase in them? very bad idea.

“Pete Hegseth vows to stay sober this time if you just give him one more chance.”

This is the letter of reference Hegseth presented to Trump to clinch the job.

He authorized Ukraine to use US missiles to strike inside Russia. Waited too long, but at least he did it. UK has followed suit. So remember, just because the media likes to show the things like going to the rainforest because they have video of it, doesn’t mean he’s not still doing stuff.

I’ve read that they’ve been doing a lot since well before the election to protect or shore up what things they can to make it harder for Trump to do some of his dictator stuff. Some things they’ve worked on since he first took office. Unfortunately, there’s not a whole lot that Biden can do on his own that Trump can’t just turn around and undo. But they’re trying to make it as difficult for him as they can bureaucratically.

As far as rallying a resistance, nope, he’s apparently not willing or able to do anything like that. He greeted Trump like everything was normal, which I found pretty irritating. It’s up to the people. I hope we can find someone charismatic to lead a movement. Charisma seems to be the most important or maybe even the only thing that matters these days.

Garland was the biggest mistake Biden made.
