Of courser Fetterman voted for her. What a joke of a Democrat.
It did seem weird to me that Harris or any of the other democratic candidates campaigned on remote work. Seems like a smart pro-worker position to take that would directly impact a group she was trying to court: college educated professionals who skew male. Plus lower environmental impact, cheaper gas, more opportunities for working parents, etc.
The cynical reason I assume it wasn’t a talking point is because the 1% who directed the media conversation had a vested interest in return to pre-Covid status quo.
To this point- Biden is still the president for 62 more days. Trump has shown what he plans to do with power, and what is Biden doing? The headlines from today were going to the rainforest and awarding CHIPS act money. Not rallying the resistance or doing anything to meaningfully protect us. It’s hard to imagine Biden doing it, but I could see a more energetic and youthful leader actually trying to be a speed bump for Trump. What a shame we’re here.
Fun fact, the US gov already has a government efficiency division and it’s called the Government Accountability Office. But I do enjoy the irony of Trump’s government having two efficiency departments.
Two small points-
- he brought the classified docs case earlier and that case has been dismissed pending appeal, so I don’t think the timing matters there.
- due to the Supreme Court’s interference, we are probably still a year from a verdict. They were going to help him avoid accountability no matter when the charges were brought.
Sounds like something you would do if you were about to remove a very popular feature like old reddit in the coming months.
I agree this is of questionable veracity, but could you imagine if for example fb users had trouble following Trump? There would be a whole news cycle culminating in a congressional hearing. When people talk about the asymmetrical standards that conservatives are held to vs liberals in the media this is a prime example.
I’m in agreement with your comments, but this is basically what Biden ran on and it brought us here. I listened to his recent interview on Pod Save America and he is definitely cut from the same “move past our differences and bring America together” cloth. While I’d vote for that in the general, I’d volunteer for a candidate who promises accountability such as deporting Musk and investigating and impeaching Trump’s cronies who remain in office.
