Official LRC President Joseph R Biden Thread

He "stormed" it? By going thru a broken window?

Bush killed a million people and ran a torture program. No time for him?

Trump was just 'mean tweets' say the 'conservatives.' Morans.

Here, the trumpers muzzled the CDC in the early days of the pandemic, all for political reasons.

Any one of these now forgotten scandals should DQ trump from ever holding office again.

NYT:

It is generally known that morale at the C.D.C. plummeted as Trump administration officials sought to squelch dissent among career scientists who disagreed with the White House’s handling of the pandemic. But few employees have described the despair inside the beleaguered agency as hospitals overflowed with patients and bodies piled up in makeshift morgues.
Interviews with 11 current and former agency employees, including trainees at the E.I.S., as well as a review of text messages and other documents obtained by The New York Times, portray an agency under intense pressure from the country’s political leaders. Some younger staff members wrestled with guilt, anger and a rising sense of powerlessness as administration officials meddled with or simply disregarded important scientific research.

Here is the problem I have with Just Fact study. They use US Bureau of Economic Analysis for the data on US consumers. However, for the rest of the world, they use the World Bank data. I don't think they are capturing the same thing.

For example, Switzerland had 20% higher mean household expenditure than the US in 2010. (The year Bureau of Economic Analysis study is based on.) However, in Just Fact Study, the average consumption per person is higher in the US. Canada has higher average consumption than Austria and Germany in the WB data, but not in Just Fact graphics.

So it could be an apples to oranges comparison. How are the subsidized services measured in the WB data? Is it the same way as Bureau of Economic Analysis?

'Conservatives' are continuing their fight against democracy. They really don't like it. Trump tried to end it, and made tens of millions lose faith in it.

Lee, senator of UT, says democracy really isn't that important.

The Rs have practically made a religion out of preventing people from voting.

And here in the confederacy they are trying to end 1 person, 1 vote.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — On Thursday, March 16, North Carolina Republicans introduced House Bill 376, a bill that would amend the state constitution to end the principle of one person, one vote in the state Senate. Currently, every state senator represents a roughly equal number of North Carolinians in the state Senate — as of 2023, about 208,788. H.B. 376 would instead have each of the state’s 50 senators represent two of North Carolina’s 100 counties regardless of population.
The amendment would drastically reduce the representation of urban and suburban voters in the state Senate

Here’s one of the real crimes. ‘mean tweets’ indeed.

Special counsel Jack Smith presented compelling evidence to a federal court that shows Trump knowingly and deliberately misled his attorneys about classified documents. The judge said there could be indications of criminal violations.

Dude, you have lost your mind...Get a life.

geez black men are shot by the cops while lying on the ground and you think a white guy should not be prosecuted for an attempted coup and all kinds of other federal crimes.

oooookay.

Smoking weed in a senators office while disrupting a government procedure would be worth a few months in prison. Now I wish I was there

Les Suisses sont des gaspilleurs. Ils sont souvent riches.

Ethan Nordean has completely turned on Trump. There is no way Nordean will ever be pardoned after the evidence that was entered in court last week. Nordean was hurling vulgritudes at Trump, blaming him for everything happened on January 6, 2021. You could sense that Nordean is feeling abandoned by Trump.

Huh?

Difference between Rs and Ds

Rs are currently making excuses for their party leader, who used hush money to silence a porn actress after this party leader had an affair with her while he was married, and then broke several laws covering it up. That's the current work of the R party. Smoothing the pathway for that guy.

Meanwhile, Ds reduced the price of insulin across the board, cooperating with private industry to get it done.

I mean choose your party man. I'll take the Ds.

The CDC probably should have listened. They completely botched the response...

Biden has had classified material for DECADES in multiple locations including sitting in his garage...

You have no self awareness whatsoever.

You mean the Democrat wh*re who violated an NDA she willingly signed for political reasons?

NDA's aren't illegal.

Violating an NDA and demanding extortion money to honor the NDA you willingly signed is MUCH more criminal than paying the wh*re her extortion money.

If Trump doesn't run for office the wh*re doesn't violate the NDA. It was literally a campaign expense. If there's no campaign the wh*re has no leverage for her extortion.

Both sides will do it. That's why the GoP position of not giving away government money like candy is the correct one.

Here’s why the main job of the gop is to smooth the road for djt even though most elected conservatives want him gone. Eternal shame to the gop senators who could have banned him from office in the second impeachment and let this nation move on.

instead, one of the least ethical people in the world has a 40% chance of being president.

NYT today:

Monmouth shows Trump continuing to gain in the presidential primary, with Trump up 41-27.
This is longest-long-term trend from a high-quality poll in the race. Since December, Trump has gained 15 points while DeSantis has lost 12 points=

I guess that the "Who to root for?" in this is a little like the Democrats who supported Trumper candidates last Fall (assuming that they would fail). Not exactly, but reminds me of it.

On the one hand, if Trump wins the primary, he's too close to being president again.

On the other hand, if he loses and DeSantis or someone else does well in the general, or wins, what reason would the Rs have to change?

In other words, if Trump gets stomped again - and hopefully worse - in a general, MAYBE a few more dozen Rs see the light ???
