History suggests it will be tough for him to recover. Biden’s 38% approval rating at this stage in the calendar is lower than that of the last three presidents who went on to lose re-election: Trump (48%), George H.W. Bush (39%) and Jimmy Carter (43%), according to Gallup survey data.

CALIFORNIA!! if you’re planning on voting for claudia de la cruz and karina garcia this 2024, they’re going to be running under the peace and freedom party. if you want to vote for them in the primaries, you’ll have to register under the peace and freedom party before february 5. they posted a video about it on their instagram here.

in my state, you can change your party very easily online, as long as you have your address and social security number on hand. not sure if it’s the same case for california, but i would try that first

i was wondering if you had a favorite presidential candidate? more specifically, what are your thoughts on Jasmine and Claudia? I'm trying to compare them and watched the debate and still gathering my thoughts. curious on other's opinions! thank you!

I don't really like PSL, which is who is backing Claudia. She's decent, but they're shady and they additionally deny the Uyghur genocide so I mean...not a giant improvement from Biden's character despite their policies being pretty decent.

I do like Jasmine Sherman tho and the more I see of them and learn, the more I like. At the very least their platform and values are better than all the other options we have and closest aligned to my own. That said, the bar rn is "knows commiting genocide is bad" which isnt super high to reach lol

Deranged, Destitute, and Dishonest Dementia Dummy donnie j. dump Doesn't Get To Be The Republican Presidential Nominee Anymore…Mwahahahahahahahahaa!!! A March 18, 2024 Update For All Political Debate Lovers! Part 7/17

LIDDLE Deranged and Destitute Dishonest Dementia Dummy donnie j. dump refused to debate anyone during the entire Republican primary season, so he's just going to have to wait and see how badly his dementia, senility, extreme poverty, and criminal/constitutional crisis is affecting him for the regular presidential debate schedule.

By the time the first presidential debate comes around on September 16, 2024, LIDDLE Deranged and Destitute Dishonest Dementia Dummy donnie j. dump will be on trial, and will have been on trial, in multiple criminal trials that President Joe Biden can reference during every single debate question.

The second and third presidential debates on October 1 and October 9, 2024 will just be more salt rubbed in the LIDDLE Simpering and Squirming Senile Snake of marred-a-LAME0's fatal wounds.

LIDDLE connie can cry all he wants, but if he'd wanted to debate so badly, he could've done so repeatedly during the Republican primary season! Too bad!

And in Yet Another Installment of "Trash Takes Itself Out": Democrats Warned Republicans They Opened A Pandora's Box of Karmic Payback and that It'd Only Be A Matter of Time… On September 26, 2020, LIDDLE Deranged and Dishonest Dementia Dummy donnie j. dump nominated Barrett to succeed Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court of the United States. Her nomination was controversial because the 2020 presidential election was only 38 days away and Senate Republicans had refused to hold hearings for Merrick Garland during an election year in 2016. The next month, the U.S. Senate voted 52–48 to confirm her nomination, with all Democrats and one Republican in opposition. Barrett was sworn in October 27, 2020. (Wikipedia)

The next time Republicans give themselves a two-week taxpayer-funded vacation during a budget/funding crisis, they need to understand those two weeks are 50% of the time it takes to rush six Real American SCOTUS judge appointments and confirmations through the Senate. Should Republicans choose to force a government shutdown, they need to understand that time could be used to rush six Real American SCOTUS judge appointments and confirmations through the Senate. President Biden put MAGA SCOTUS on notice that Real Americans don't have to put up with their judicial activism, legislating from the bench, and criminal obstruction of justice, illegal constitution modification, and insurrection. Every action and aspect of creation has an equal and opposite within creation; and MAGA SCOTUS will eventually encounter their neutralizing equal; because it's always just a matter of time…

So here's how it's gonna go if it doesn't happen sooner… November 5, 2024: U.S. general and presidential elections.

November 6, 2024, per the Take Care Clause of the U.S. Constitution, President Joe Biden implements the 2024 American Elections Rescue and MAGA Insurrection Prevention Plan to protect the results of the 2024 elections from the six criminal MAGA insurrectionist SCOTUS judges and all of their co-conspirators, enablers, supporters, donors, etc.. On November 6, 2024, just as connie j. chump and his MAGA insurrectionists appointed and confirmed SCOTUS "justice" Barrett in 30 days, so too shall Senate Majority Democrats push through all six MAGA insurrectionist SCOTUS judge replacements and swear them in by December 6, 2024.

The American public will be advised that impeachment proceedings to remove the six criminal MAGA insurrectionist SCOTUS judges will begin immediately on January 3, 2025, but in the meantime, the six Real American Patriot SCOTUS justices will insure that there will be no successful overturning of any popular vote at any county, state, or federal level, no Independent State Legislature nonsense, and no further attempts by the six criminal MAGA insurrectionist SCOTUS judges to overthrow the U.S. government or engage in obstruction of justice, election interference, or any other forms of treason against Real Americans and the U.S. government.

The MAGA cult and MAGA SCOTUS thought they had it all figured out, but MAGA SCOTUS is going to find out real quick that they can and will be prosecuted for obstruction of justice and election tampering and interference just like LIDDLE Cognitively Crippled Crying Cuck connie j. chump.

Democrats prommised the MAGA insurrectionist Republicans the Barrett situation was going to come back around on them; and there's nothing in the U.S. Constitution that limits the number of SCOTUS justices or the amount of SCOTUS justices that can be appointed and confirmed in any presidential term.

And due to the illegal and criminal obstruction of justice, election tampering and interference, illegal constitution modification, and dereliction of duty to uphold and enforce the laws of the United States on ALL people of and in the United States of America, President Joe Biden has no choice but to adhere to and honor his Oath of Office and the Take Care Clause of the U.S. Constitution to counter the corrupted insurrectionist and criminal MAGA SCOTUS poison, disease, and infestation.

The 2024 American Elections Rescue Plan not only saves the United States of America, it also saves Ukraine, Europe and all of America's NATO allies, Africa, South America, Asia, and the the Middle East. And all of that miraculous goodness begins November 6, 2024…

United States Constitution: Clause 5: Caring for the faithful execution of the law (Including enforcing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution on Congressionally-Determined insurrectionist donald. j. trump: whom through an act of Congress was referred to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution for his January 6, 2021 insurrection and election interference)

The president must "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." This clause in the Constitution imposes a duty on the president to enforce the laws of the United States and is called the Take Care Clause, also known as the Faithful Execution Clause or Faithfully Executed Clause. This clause is meant to ensure that a law is faithfully executed by the president even if he disagrees with the purpose of that law. Addressing the North Carolina ratifying convention, William Maclaine declared that the Faithful Execution Clause was "one of the [Constitution's] best provisions." If the president "takes care to see the laws faithfully executed, it will be more than is done in any government on the continent; for I will venture to say that our government, and those of the other states, are, with respect to the execution of the laws, in many respects mere ciphers." President George Washington interpreted this clause as imposing on him a unique duty to ensure the execution of federal law. Discussing a tax rebellion, Washington observed, "it is my duty to see the Laws executed: to permit them to be trampled upon with impunity would be repugnant to [that duty]."

According to former United States Assistant Attorney General Walter E. Dellinger III, the Supreme Court and the Attorneys General have long interpreted the Take Care Clause to mean that the president has no inherent constitutional authority to suspend the enforcement of the laws, particularly of statutes. The Take Care Clause demands that the president obey the law, the Supreme Court said in Humphrey's Executor v. United States, and repudiates any notion that he may dispense with the law's execution. In Printz v. United States, the Supreme Court explained how the president executes the law: "The Constitution does not leave to speculation who is to administer the laws enacted by Congress; the president, it says, "shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed," Art. II, §3, personally and through officers whom he appoints (save for such inferior officers as Congress may authorize to be appointed by the "Courts of Law" or by "the Heads of Departments" with other presidential appointees), Art. II, §2."

The president may not prevent a member of the executive branch from performing a ministerial duty lawfully imposed upon him by Congress. (See Marbury v. Madison (1803); and Kendall v. United States ex rel. Stokes (1838).) Nor may the president take an action not authorized either by the Constitution or by a lawful statute. (See Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer (1952).) Finally, the president may not refuse to enforce a constitutional law, or "cancel" certain appropriations, for that would amount to an extra-constitutional veto or suspension power. (Wikipedia)

[writing-with-olive]

wait what? I'm in virginia and I didnt know voting was up yet. omg i'm an idiot. I voted locally twice which is arguably more important, though.

Ay. don't beat yourself up - there's not anything that can be done about it now, okay? The primaries are past, yes, but there are more elections.

So instead, you're gonna recenter and be proactive about this. Think about what went wrong this time so you can strategize for next time: forgot to check dates well in advance, didn't have a reminder, whatever. Remember you're not judging yourself, you're doing problem analysis. Make sure that you set up whatever that system needs to be for the general election since that's the Big One, and if you can, for the primaries for the midterms in a couple years (just go ahead and save the date for 2026, make whatever calender app you have ping you a week or two in advance and then it's there)

Your other task. once you figure out setting up reminders and whatnot for yourself, figure out a way to help remind other people. Guaranteed there are other people in your life who just didn't realize how quickly voting happens.

And at the end of the day though, you're right. The more local the election, the more important it is to the day-to-day. Like obviously still try to vote in as many elections as you are eligible for, but as a rule of thumb, bigger offices make the policy, the local offices decide how to enact it. What you're gonna be affected by is the enactment.

You're not an idiot. You're a person trying to figure this out, doing what they can, and as long as you take this as a learning moment and choose to do something with it, you're fine.

[wind-on-the-panes]

Anyway. Really. Have USamericans ever heard people attacked by the US, of affected negatively by it, hwo the talk about it?

It's overwhelmingly not "Biden/Trump/Obama/Bush did this."

It's overwhelmingly "The United States did this."

The neocolonial, domineering, and controlling actions of the US is not new, or partisan. It happens regardless of who's in the power, since the 19th century.

Now, let that sink in. The nation of the USA has been invading, slaughtering, and controlling several parts of the globe for over a century, and spreading the naturally of its values through soft power. No matter who's in power, there will always be an invasion, war, or slaughter in the USA's account. The values of the USA, the very embedded morals of the US, lies in those actions.

Now.

What I suggest, in every given election, is not to consider the absolute body count every time. Because the US is always, always influencing the world order, and even with a lower death count directly, it can influence and facilitate a lot bloodier situations. In that court, in that way, Republicans are by far the greatest threat. Under Republicans, overt and galloping far right politics are reinforced.

If you're in doubt, don't trust me, a citizen of a country who directly suffered from that; @jstor is an amazing resource if you add something like "US influence", channels like Wiaecrack has several videos with sources speaking of that. Being open to listen about it and consider not only as your knee-jerk perception of direct violence, but the actual influence in the ripple effect of international politics depending of the US leadership, puts another layer of realization in your thoughts.

Not to mention, and please do not forget, how so many issues the Biden adm. had to deal with came directly from Trump ripping internal policies up. A lot of people voting today were kids or young teens when Trump ruled. Please do not trust your memory of that time; research what happened at that time and talk to people from people who lived that time. You may just not have a good idea of how bad the US fared then.

Considering all those aspects

What are the most effective actions so Trump, widely and overwhelmingly considered the most destructive president in the US since Reagan, does not rise to power again?

USAmericans have a responsibility to the world: to realize how their continued existence as a nation always, always relies on stepping on top of all of us, and encouraging ideas that perpetuate that. And by realizing that, to work out which mechanisms will undo that kind of domination long-term. That's a super heavy burden, and it means making unpleasant decisions. But they are necessary decisions if you really, actually care about the world as a whole and about your own people. If you don’t wise up to the responsibility that your birth certificate gives you, you are part of the problem, not part of the solution.

My friend Stacey Swann just launched a protest campaign for TX House as a Dem in the heavily GOP district of Lampasas. She does not expect to win. She wants to use the campaign to GOTV and keep abortion rights in the political conversation in TX and I think she'll succeed. www.staceyfortexas68.com

For folks who have decided to go straight to despair before our presidential election has really started (yes, the sideshow is large. Yes, everyone loves writing articles about trump supporters).... I'd really encourage you to find a cause/interest/battle and fight.

I could understand if people were like "oh my god that's crazy, Marianne Williamson is an anti-vaxxer, I'm not voting for her are you kidding" and refused to vote or waited for a better candidate but no, instead they're going "oh my god that's crazy, Marianne Williamson is an anti-vaxxer, im not voting for her are you kidding" and then going "anyway #PandemicDenier&Anti-indigenousPig2024"

Especially right now. Like 3 days after his mandates ended and he's declared the pandemic over. And he's done Nothing about the power trip Desantis is having either.

Like are y'all being for fucking real right now. Biden isn't gonna do shit for us.

And maybe I'm just not seeing it but M.W does have more pros than cons compared to Any other candidate right?? And her cons are far LESS harmful than Joe Biden literally trying to fight against Roe v Wade in 1973 or pass the crime act in 1994 so what's the fucking problem. Like actually.

Why are we ACTUALLY not gonna support the candidate who wants to provide healthcare, codify lgbt rights, and provide reparations.

Like what exactly is the catch that has y'all thinking a disconnected geriatric man who probably had a private celebration when Roe v Wade fell is our actual best option? And how are y'all convinced that he is who is best for the majority of Americans? Cuz the math isn't mathing for me babes

I'm convinced y'all are either completely delusional and beyond learning at this point because you've just swallowed too much blue kool aid OR you're fully aware of how awful Biden is and y'all are just determined to keep everyone fucking miserable and voting for him because that's what benefits YOU

So what's up? am I wrong or what the fuck?

Why is a Biden/Harris ticket even on y'all's radar after the last 8 years.

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN

November 15, 2023

HEATHER COX RICHARDSON

NOV 16, 2023

Extremist Republicans today shut down House business by refusing to pass a procedural vote to take up a spending bill, as they had threatened to do in retaliation for the passage yesterday of the continuing resolution to fund the government into the new year. This is the fourth time the extremists have defeated special rules in the House this year, and as deputy chief of staff for Representative Don Beyer (D-VA) Aaron Fritschner pointed out, their doing so is highly unusual. In the previous 20 years the House voted down no such measures at all. 

Although they were in the middle of a 17-vote series, the Republicans then recessed the House until after Thanksgiving. 

Members of the far-right House Freedom Caucus made it clear they are angry that their own demands are not being met. “We’re sending a shot across the bow,” caucus chair Scott Perry (R-PA) told reporters. “[W]e are done with the failure theater here.” 

Representative Chip Roy (R-TX) angrily said to his colleagues: “One thing. I want my Republican colleagues to give me one thing. One. That I can go campaign on and say we did. One! Anybody sitting in the complex, if you want to come down to the floor and come explain to me, one material, meaningful, significant thing the Republican majority has done besides, ‘Well, I guess it’s not as bad as the Democrats.’” 

In contrast, the Democrats with the same slim majority in the last Congress passed a series of sweeping bills that are already changing the country. Today marks the second anniversary of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Act that invested $1.2 trillion—$550 billion of it new spending—in roads, water systems, electrical grids, broadband, bridges, and so on.

So far, that act has seen the start of more than 37,000 projects across the country. Bridges, airports, and supply chain projects are underway, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs. The Democrats today emphasized that they are delivering on the things that make people’s lives easier, and the White House listed a number of Republicans who voted against the measure only to boast of the benefits of the infrastructure investments to their constituents.

 “And,” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said in a video in which he echoed the tagline of the administration: “the great news is, we’re just getting started.” 

The investment in infrastructure is part of what has created a booming U.S. economy. Growth is far better in the U.S. than in Europe or China, where a property bubble and local government debts have led to deflation. 

That economic strength is standing behind President Joe Biden in San Francisco, where he traveled yesterday for a summit of the 21 member economies of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum (APEC groups economies, not nations). APEC economies make up almost half of world trade and about 62% of global gross domestic product. 

Today, Biden met with Chinese president Xi Jinping in a much anticipated second meeting since Biden took office. But even before today’s discussion, the two leaders announced a new climate agreement. The U.S. and China are the world’s two largest climate polluters, accounting for 38% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. 

China did not agree to phase out coal, which is the dirtiest fossil fuel, but both countries agreed to ramp up renewable energy capacity around the world and to reduce emissions in their power sectors overall. This is the first time China has agreed to cut emissions. In two weeks the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference will take place in Dubai. Observers hope the willingness of China and the U.S. to make this announcement, even with its limitations, will jump-start negotiations there. 

Remarks by Biden and Xi before their meeting were cordial but tense. Biden emphasized that their “meetings have always been candid, straightforward, and useful,” telling Xi: “I value our conversation because I think it’s paramount that you and I understand each other clearly, leader to leader, with no misconceptions or miscommunication. We have to ensure that competition does not veer into conflict. And we also have to manage it responsibly—that competition.”

Xi responded that the China-U.S. relationship “is the most important bilateral relationship in the world,” and while it “has never been smooth sailing over the past 50 years and more…, it has kept moving forward amid twists and turns. For two large countries like China and the United States, turning their back on each other is not an option. It is unrealistic for one side to remodel the other, and conflict and confrontation has unbearable consequences for both sides.”   

In their four-hour meeting, the two leaders agreed to recommence military communications more than a year after China broke them off when then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan. The two countries also agreed to strengthen cooperation on stopping the flow of what are known as precursor chemicals—the chemicals needed to make street fentanyl—which are produced in China and shipped to drug operations primarily in Latin America. The U.S. has cracked down hard on that trade; additional Chinese cooperation will be welcome. 

They agreed to continue to work together to address climate change, as well as to address the risks of artificial intelligence. 

On the rest of their discussions, concerning Taiwan, human rights, the Middle East, and Ukraine, the two leaders “exchanged views,” according to the White House readout. Later in the day, meeting with business leaders who have grown nervous about investing in China, Xi assured them that China wants to be friends with the U.S., and “does not seek spheres of influence, and will not fight a cold or hot war with any country.”

In his remarks welcoming APEC leaders this evening, in the city of the famous Golden Gate Bridge, Biden emphasized the power of building bridges to span space and time, the past and the future. He spoke of connecting diverse communities: “All across the traditions, cultures, and languages, we find the common dreams we share for ourselves and for our children.” 

Biden urged his audience to “take full advantage of this summit to make new connections and spark new partnerships, because every step we take to deepen our cooperation, to launch a new venture, to tackle the challenges that impact on all of us is a step toward realization of the enormous potential of our Asian Pacific future…, a future where our economics are strong, vibrant, and sustainable because our workers are empowered and protected; women and girls are full and equal participants in every aspect of our society; young people…can envision for themselves the lives and hope for unlimited possibilities.”

The strongest tools we have to meet this era’s challenges, he said, are “connection, cooperation, collective action, and common purpose. That’s why we’re all here.”  

Late tonight, by a vote of 87 to 11, the Senate passed the continuing resolution to fund the government into the new year. One Democrat and ten Republicans voted no.
