Reminder: Congress is in charge of the laws and President just signs or vetos what is sent to him/her. Biden didn't do any of this. In particular, an EO can't legally do anything regarding changing what is already the law. So whenever anyone talks about an EO, you can throw it out the window.
This is just a me thing, but I'd rather a police officer use a rear naked choke, let them pass out for a second, and wake up in handcuffs than the punching, weapons, and... "struggles" they go through to restrain people. I recognize it's a real monkey's paw moment
turning a big dial taht says "Genocide" on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right.
Said this in the other thread, but certainly bears repeating here.
Hiatus on keystone pipeline expansion was a good step.
But then we’re immediately back to business as usual with insane production volumes of oil and gas (only thing America is #1 at in the world these days), continued massive subsidies for fossil fuel industry, and removal of benefits and subsidies for renewables.
THEN, he goes and does an absolute gimme for Manchin by allowing the Mountain Valley Pipeline to get rammed through Appalachia, violating dozens of environmental safety regs. I’d love for anyone to explain to me why Biden felt the need to reward Manchin this way… (yeah I know, Manchin did his job of obstructing the dem majority admirably, and they all love him for being that fall guy).
So really, this is a net negative on fossil fuels.

Not true, America is also #1 in prisoners per capita
And by a WIDE margin in ~~wasting~~ "spending" money on the military and arms.
Still the best of the two choices though isn't he?
No. He is much, much worse than Trump.
hell yeah dude
For a party that claims to care about Democracy its shitty to not even hold a Primary in most states. In my state the only options I get are Genocide Joe and "No Preference". So guess who isn't taking the Democratic ballot?
Yea in the same way between being shot in the head and the stomach getting shot in the head is the better option.
