Biden's betrayal of Afghans will live in infamy
"Our abandonment of the Afghans who helped us, counted on us, and staked their lives on us is a final, gratuitous shame that we could have avoided. The Biden administration failed to heed the warnings on Afghanistan, failed to act with urgency - and its failure has left tens of thousands of Afghans to a terrible fate. This betrayal will live in infamy. The burden of shame falls on Joe Biden..."
'Jesus - Biden's approval rating has dropped by 10 points in 1 week'

"Jesus - Biden's approval rating has dropped by 10 points in one week - to 41 per cent, after having been well over 50 since he took office."
First poll of his term done by Suffolk. So hard to drop by 10 from last week. Other polls out today and yesterday show him at 48-50.
"Joe Biden appointed Chevron lawyer Ken Salazar to be ambassador to Mexico, [Zionist] Comcast exec David Cohen to be ambassador to Canada and investment banker/ suppressor-of-police-murder-video Rahm Emanuel to be ambassador to Japan."

You can pretty much tell everything you need to know about a US president by the appointments he makes. Unless, as is customary with Dem fandoms at home and abroad, you stop paying attention to such things as soon as he is successfully elected.
So this explains Biden's drop in the polls.
The Media Was in Love With Joe Biden — Until He Tried to End a War

"In seven decades since the UN was formed in 1945, no other nation has been so often at war than the United States under the guise of various pretexts. Regardless of the hollow self-appointed claims, the fact is that no other nation has violated the UN Charter as habitually or as brazenly as the US. Biden's rosy rhetoric about diplomacy is rendered meaningless by his administration's ramping up of hostility towards China..."
I think Biden's official policy in favour of international diplomacy, multilateralism, and the U.N. is a major improvement in U.S. foreign policy over Trump's erratic America First gambits that destabilized the world.
American presidents are well known liars. Watch if policy accords with practise.

"The election of Donald Trump to the presidency can be directly tied to the policies implemented by Barack Obama and Joe Biden during their 8 years in office. The failure to address the suffering and anger of a betrayed public, even though the electorate gave them in 2008 a clear mandate to ameliorate this suffering, has become economically and politically catastrophic.
As Biden embraces, once again, these corporate-friendly policies, as he too betrays the mass of Americans, he seeds the ground for the return of another demagogue who may be Trump, or may be someone with the organizational skills which Trump lacked, to snuff out what is left of our anemic democracy..."
Trump's policies were much more friendly to corporations and the 1% than Obama's policies were. People who support demagogues like Trump support corporate friendly policies and the interests of the 1%.
And you continue to champion an American party of political syphilis over one of gonorrhea.

"...After adjusting for inflation, this enormous budget is comparable to the peak of Trump's arms build-up in 2020, and is only 10% below the post-WWII record set by Bush II in 2008 under cover of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
It would give Joe Biden the dubious distinction of being the fourth post-Cold War US president to militarily outspend every Cold War president, from Truman to Bush1..."

Welcome to the age of 'auto-eugenics'

U.S. President Joe Biden addressed the nation on Sept. 9 regarding new measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, including vaccination mandates for federal employees and companies that employ more than 100 people.
On the one hand, almost all Republican-controlled states are passing new voter-suppression measures to make voting harder for Democratic supporters, and especially for those who are poor and/or non-white.
It’s bound to have some success, because these are often people who don’t have cars (make the polling stations few and far between), can’t get time off work (no Sunday voting), are suffering from ill health (no mail-in ballots), etc.
On the other hand, a significant proportion of Republican voters are striving to remove themselves from the gene pool by refusing to be vaccinated, and they can’t vote Republican if they are dead. Losing an extra 50,000 guaranteed Republican voters to COVID-19 each month is bound to have an impact in at least some marginal elections next year.
Which trend will shift the needle more strongly remains to be seen, but it is bound to a topic of furious in-house debate among Republican electoral strategists. You can safely assume they have the relevant numbers at their fingertips, but that they are finding it almost impossible to shift the ideology.
It’s generally seen as insensitive to talk about this sort of thing in public, but admit it: wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall when they debate this matter among themselves?
