From Jeff Stein,  in today's Post... no italics used because they seem to crash my posts now....

The United States could plunge into an immediate recession if Congress fails to raise the debt ceiling and the country defaults on its payment obligations this fall, according to one analysis released Tuesday.

Anybody who doesn't believe that Republicans are going to regain control of Congress next election is using the wish to be the father of the thought.


I know the Dems can fight off the GOP in the midterms if the moderates let Biden pass his agenda.

"Moderates" is Larry's racist code word used to describe white Dems.

 Haters gonna hate.


What set of moderates are fighting the agenda? Clyburn?

Ask yourself why most conservative black people are democrats? Moderate black people are democrats. Progressive black people are democrats.

The only group fucking up the disco are the white moderates.

Reality is a bitch.


You should stop projecting your own racist baggage on me.

I do not hate white people but I sure as hell do not like white people like you.

 

Of course. You dislike anyone who fucks up your cozy narratives with abject reality.

You dislike anyone who exposes your rank hypocritical thinking.

so, it stands to reason you'd dislike me.

But that doesn't change your comments. You attached the race to the moderates in the party a long time ago. Now you double down.

The "reality" is that you are a racist.

Which VAX did you get?

Moderna.   This story was posted and discussed a few days ago.   I had a strong reaction to my second shot,  got sick.   So I'm glad it wasn't for nothing.

BTW, I picked this from SIX posts in a row from you,  which kind of gets at my earlier point that people aren't necessarily "ignoring" a story you posted.  Less is more, IMO.

White moderate Democrats are the bane of small d democracy in this day and age because they give oxygen to the racist motherfuckers in the GOP.

GREAT NEWS!!!

Joe Biden now understands!


At his meeting with the Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, instead of calling him "that fellow from from under" like last week, he warmly greeted him as "Scott".

Reading from notes on his lap...(great idea, not everyone can know or remember every detail about everything)...he basically said he understands about the Indo-Pacific.

Reality is not your thing, clearly. Once again you show you aren't capable of sustaining a POV, let alone proving it.

Meanwhile, the idiots in your wing are giving the GOP another issue to campaign on this fall---they can paint the party as anti-Israel and Pro-Palestinian, thanks to that Iron Dome stunt.

Stupid motherfucking bigots.

The Iron Dome money, which Israel views as critical for its protection from rocket attacks, will be included in the annual defense funding bill instead, according to an Appropriations Committee spokesperson.

Apparently Joe, having not been President before, didn't like anyone Trump liked, and dismissed them.
But now, growing into the office of President he seems to have realised that being 'king' of the free world that is a bad idea.
The President has to, as far as possible, be all things to all people.
US is the largest investor in Australia.
CIA has a base at Pine Gap, Australia.
US drones are guided from the clear skies of outback Australia, reportedly.
US has an annual trade surplus of $28bn with Australia.
Australia has giant telescopes that assist tracking US satellites and space ships to Mars.
etc.
So he can't really just dismiss it and say no to everything.
Big business etc would likely not be pleased.
