The USA Political Thread

I have no idea, but I would assume so.

People are only talking about it because she is transgender.

How many other times has anyone ever talked about the nomination of an assistant secretary?

Is it a he or she?? Dong or crack??

This is funny, even funnier because the self-important "professional" comedian calling him unfunny I saw perform in Japan for a small group of maybe 18 people from various English speaking countries. We agreed he was the most self-important and humorless guy we had ever seen - and apparently he is popular on US campuses. Even at the $10 or so we paid. At least a drink was included. He started in on on Australian woman in the audience because she "ruined his comedic timing." He belittled the working class and started one attempted joke with "I don't know how many of you have been on an airplane" to a group of expats in Japan. I think he also reaffirmed with us that he was "professional comedian" as well.

I hadn't seen any American stand-up for a while, and was wondering "is it all this bad?" Sure enough, since then I have seen some funny UK, Aussie and even Japanese comedians. Only one funny American, Doug Stanhope. He was sold out at $120 a ticket. Other top comedians praise him. Of course, you will never see him on mainstream American TV. He's too real. And actually funny - a kind of crime these days.

There is chatter the deep state traitors want to do something bad to Biden's hologram once they get Kamala sworn in, then weaponize the public empathy and go for the guns.

Will Steve Bannon be one?

I doubt it...

While Trump was considering preemptive pardons for his children and his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, a source close to the process said those are no longer expected. Bannon, who has been indicted on fraud charges, is also not expected to receive a pardon on Tuesday, the source said.

Trump is also not expected to pardon Edward Snowden or Julian Assange, whose roles in revealing US secrets infuriated official Washington.

I understand your disdain for this particular news source, however instead of auto-debunking, one must read between the lines free of judgement in order to process and decipher the truth. Any pre-emptive pardon may in fact predispose the president and his closest confidants to further scrutiny. On the lawyers' recommendations, he should not pardon himself, his family or any GOP lawmakers in a prospective manner unless he was prepared to list specific crimes as it would potentially make them more vulnerable to reprisals.

This is why I like Conservatives... the majority are always willing to admit they are wrong... unlike the vast majority of Liberals...

You can not even make this shit up...

Trump picked the smartest, most beautiful wife.

Love this woman. Surprised she not blocked by Youtube.
She’s “too positive.” and in danger of being right.

Will be fun to see the tug of war... hope they don't strangle Sleepy Joe...

Losing hope. But Trump absolutely must pardon Assange if he wants to be remembered.

Finish the job Trump, wreck the Party

Trump has talked to associates in recent days about starting a new party after he leaves the White House. He wants to call it the Patriot Party.

Oh boy

Shepard Smith Calls Out Former Fox News Colleagues: 'I Don't Know How Some People Sleep at Night' (Video)


"If you feel like the Fox viewers were getting mis- or dis-information, I was there to make sure that they got it straight," Smith explained. "There were a lot of others in there who I thought were trying to do the same thing. But I thought to just abandon it, and to deprive those viewers of — it wasn't just me, there was an entire team of people getting the news on the air — to deny them that, with the thought that they might replace it with opinion instead, seemed a little selfish. So I stuck with it as long as I could. And at some point, I realized I reached the point of diminishing returns and I left."

Biden won in spite of all the Republican cheating.

News: Senate Democrats just unveiled their first bill of the new Congress—the "For The People Act"—to restore Voting Rights Act, bolster voter protections and election infrastructure, toughen campaign finance rules and disclosures, and impose new executive branch ethics rules.

Mighty Joe and the Dems are going to get in there and get things poppin', kick the Amateur squad out and the let Pros handle things. Probably have to disinfect the whole place first.

No surprise that Melania's speech was not blocked by Youtube. There was no partisanship, nor self-promoting rhetoric as she spoke gratuitously. A voice of reason, I almost forgot that her last name is Trump.

1.) A reasonable public option on healthcare. The current system is not sustainable.
2.) More affordable higher education and vocational training. In general more focus on increasing the quality in public education.
3.) Put net neutrality into law.
4.) Pass HR1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.R._1_(116th_Congress)
5.) Actually acknowledging the data...Climate change exists, and work on reasonable solutions.
