The guards who were supposed to check on him that night were online shopping after receiving large bank deposits days earlier...
If Biden had just investigated this shit when president it likely would have stopped trump. And he might have even been in jail before the last election.
There's just so many different single things he could have done to prevent this, but that geriatric fuck we all held our noses for seemed to intentionally make the least popular decision with Dem voters at every opportunity.
We can't afford to settle for someone like him again, we need someone that will actually fight like we need to.
Biden is why we have Trump.
We could have had Sanders... Arghh
100%. Trump had just launched a violent, deadly Insurrection a couple weeks before the Inauguration. Biden would have been fully legally and Constitutionally justified in stepping off the podium after his swearing in, and ordering the arrests of every MAGA in the Trump Administration as National Security Threats, which they were.
They should have been shipped off to Guantanamo Bay for extensive interrogation, where they would be cut off from the media, their lifeblood. We would have uncovered the False Electors Plot (off to Gitmo for them), and the Stolen Classified Documents Scheme. All of them should have been denied bond, and remained in their dungeons, until they could be tried for their Sedition and Treason.
But Biden decided to appoint The most feckless Republican in history to be his AG, who them dithered and slow-walked the cases, giving Trump a Two year head start in running out the clock.
MAGA survived and stole back the power, entirely because Biden, and the cowardly Democratic legislature, allowed them to.
i'm already apopleptic with righteous fury and agree with you and i wasn't even thinking of this bullfuckingnonsensewhythefucki'mnotgettingonpoliticstodayit'supposedtobeaholidayshit
edit where the damn shit fuck oh balls i'm so mad i tits forgot how to belgium swear
oh right my coffee. where is it. belgium.
Sorry, dude. Didn't mean to harsh yer buzz.
my dude this fucking year. someone just walked into the room, started talking at me (not with me i still have not opened my mouth to them) thought i raised my eyebrow in a saucy manner which may be a half truth it was more (and they will appreciate this more than i will) i was being crabby and i insist on the difference. anyways my eyebrows started a fucking argument i am so tired
Brother, I'd buy you a beer if I could. It's Saturday night. Go watch your favorite comedy movie, seriously, flush your brain.
i'm binging star trek. i had one of my favorite meals last night but like, the year hit back today right?
Star Trek has been my guilty pleasure for decades. Half my TIVO is NG, DS9, and Voyager episodes. I've seen them all a dozen times, but I still like to watch one as the last thing before I go to bed. I'm always hoping I'll stumble across one that I accidentally missed, or at least don't remember, but they're all pretty familiar at this point.
DS9 is probably the best. The final story arc in the last season is some of the most exciting TV I've ever seen.
I will always have a special for Strange New Worlds because it's the one that helped me convince my wife to give it a try. That is powerful hair.
Also, Biden should never have run for a second term. Nobody wanted it.
He had initially promised a single term as well.
Well, he inadvertently kept that promise...
“No ItS tHe LeFIsTs and BeRniE BrOs”
What we should campaign - pronouns. Because that’s what those 90,000 twitter bot accounts said.
Not creating laws or upholding existing ones to prevent fascism. Not arresting powerful elite pedophiles. Not taxing the corporations or the rich. Not education. Not healthcare. Not affordable housing. Not ensuring people have food. Not climate. Not fixing flint Michigan. Not giving billionaires welfare.
Fucking democrats man.
The democrats in power are the ones telling us progressives like Bernie and Mahmdani aren’t electable. But they’ve never had the opportunity. 2020 was a sham primary meant to prevent Bernie from winning.
Obama is why we had Biden.
It’s not Obama’s fault Biden ran for a second term.
