President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Hilarity ensues!!!



“If we’re going to keep the bar of accountability this low, perhaps it’s time to exploit that low bar the same way billionaires have successfully done for decades,” Oliver said on Sunday’s episode of HBO’s “Last Week Tonight,” before announcing the offer he had for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas: $1 million per year if he steps down from his post immediately.

Oliver is also throwing in a new $2.4 million motor coach that’s outfitted with a king-size bed, four televisions and a fireplace — a potential deal-sweetener for Thomas, who has come under fire for receiving significant gifts and favors from a network of wealthy friends and patrons.

Clarence Thomas has 30 days to resign if he wants millions from John Oliver

 

We need a “Designated Survivor” episode on about 60 percent of Congress — and 100 percent on these mouth-breathing fucks supporting Trump.

 

I've recently caught a couple of interviews with Fiona Hill. She was a Russia wonk on the National Security Council for three presidents, then she testified to the 1/6 committee about Trump and got on the R's shit list. The woman is ferociously bright. Good stuff. She's got a book out recently and is doing her version of a book tour. Google and there are several hour, hour and a half interviews and chats like these.

 

A bit late isn't it? This is like ruling CB radios illegal in an iPhone world.

Faced with a surge of migrant families at the U.S.-Mexico border in 2018 and 2019, Donald Trump’s White House discussed ways to more aggressively deploy the resources and the might of the U.S. military.

Aides and officials spoke privately about detaining migrants on military bases and flying them out of the country on military planes — ideas that the Pentagon headed off. Throughout his presidency, Trump himself would frequently demand to send troops to the border and catch people crossing.

Ex-Informant Accused of Lying About Bidens Said He Had Russian Contacts

A former F.B.I. informant accused of making false bribery claims about President Biden and his son Hunter — which were widely publicized by Republicans — claimed to have been fed information by Russian intelligence, according to a court filing on Tuesday.

In the memo, prosecutors portrayed the former informant, Alexander Smirnov, 43, as a serial liar incapable of telling the truth about even the most basic details of his own life. But Mr. Smirnov told federal investigators that “officials associated with Russian intelligence were involved in passing a story” about Hunter Biden.

 

So Trump’s GoFundMe is about 1/500th the way there after five days and has 25 days left to reach its goal…

Math is hard. I voted for Trump. My cat’s breath smells like cat food.

 

What’s sad, is that will be a pay cut in all the kick backs he’s already getting.
