President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Bruce performing at his inaugural concert instead of Scott Baio’s jam band.

 

Crooked GOP operative who was installed at the NSA on Saturday just got bounced.

 

Three takeaways from today:

1. The guy who claimed to be a businessman didn't understand the first rule of business: delegate responsibility to experienced, trained management. The career politican has made more smart "business" moves already in one day than Trump did in four years.

2. Note to Cruz, Hawley, Graham, et al. You lost your right to claim "righteous indignation" over the past four years. Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way. Nobody believes you. Nobody cares. That page of the playbook got torn out and ripped to shreds when Donald Trump stomped all over respect and dignity.

3. Biden played nice in his inaugural speech but I have to believe behind closed doors, his message will be clear and concise to those who wish to undermine his authority for political gain: "I'm all for uniting the country in an orderly and peaceful fashion, but if you bring the fight to my door, be prepared to suffer the consequences."

 

Yeah? Good. I had read it wouldn’t be easy because of civil service protections. I shall go read more.

 

This special is incredibly well-produced.

 

Story is developing. I got a WAPO news alert. The rationale is the way he was installed was probably illegal.

 

Goddamn, if you watch Biden at the Lincoln Memorial and have to ask what he wants to accomplish, it says more about your lack of values than his value.
Yes the bar to surpass Trump is incredibly low. But in 9 hours he has done more to make America great than trump has done in his whole miserable life.

 

Alma already missing Trump.

 

Subject of DoD investigation. Shockingly accused of mishandling classified information.

 

Interesting how they slipped Biden in the back door of the Lincoln Memorial and not unnoticed that he stayed to the side (over by the gift shop and men’s room) instead of coming out into the open on the steps.

 

Picking nits from Day One.

 

Just for giggles someone ought to play the first few bars of Cat Scratch Fever
