Joe Biden, President of the United States vol. V in Political Scene ·
hollowmason64 said:But what exactly do you want him to do right this second?
At the end of the day, it’s the Cabinet—the people directly responsible for all of this, who hand-picked the very officials currently pulling these stunts—that should have been out there in front of the cameras within two days, actually addressing it instead of just reciting empty talking points.
I don't recall seeing you pop up in any other thread asking where the Cabinet was while a massive scandal like this was actually breaking.

Robbery ☕

Sugar I guess I should probably mention that...
Honestly, you two are talking absolute nonsense. I mean, this is some of the most nonsensical garbage I've ever heard in my life, but even if I wanted to engage, I wouldn't. I’ll just pretend I have no idea what either of you were even asking, because, frankly, I don't have an answer for you.
You don't even have to answer me; just put the convicted corrupt felons right there in the headline.😉

Same here! I actually wanted to check in on what those crooks were up to, but now they've totally vanished. 😁

The head of the Federal Real Estate Agency doctored her resume just to hide the fact that she doesn't even meet the job requirements.

And at the press conference, every single reporter was just acting all shy and quiet.🤮

Man, we really can be a mess sometimes when even the smallest little thing goes wrong. ☕

Party cards, Verizon perks, and getting hacked
A local Republican woman was bragging on Facebook about all the perks her party membership card gets her. Fast forward a bit: "I've been hacked!"

fadedgull6 said:The Supreme Court actually upheld the county court's decision. It's not like the Republican Party was convicted this week.

True, they didn't.
They just officially rubber-stamped their pride ☕

Alex Moore3 said:You're absolutely right that the Republican Party would have passed that law on a second attempt even without opposition. It might have been harder, and they would have taken the full blame, but since the Democratic Party and the Progressives helped them out, the responsibility is naturally shared.
If anything is being weak here, it's your effort to justify why the Democratic Party and the Progressives aligned themselves with the Republican Party in this instance.
It’s funny how you explain that they criticized the proposal so heavily, only to end up voting for the very thing they opposed. I guess Joe Biden just forced their hand.😁
Another interesting point from the link above is that some parties were extremely critical and warned the law wouldn't work. Their representatives didn't even vote for it.
Wait, so the Democratic Party and the Progressives voted for a disastrous law, but they aren't responsible???
Let me try rephrasing that: The Republican Party, the Democratic Party, and the Progressives are ALL responsible for passing a terrible law that has delayed recovery for over a year and risks us having to return EU funds, all while citizens are stuck waiting through another winter in temporary housing. How does that sound? ☕

During the vote in US Congress, both the Democratic Party and the Progressives made it clear the law was flawed, but they voted for it anyway because they were hoping the Republican Party would finally get off its butt and actually do something a year after the disaster.
They had a ton of amendments that eventually made it into this new version, but back then, only some minor technical stuff got accepted. Of course, the idea was that anything good has to be a Republican proposal, so they preferred forcing through a bad law rather than fixing it by accepting the opposition's amendments before the vote.
The big boss complained that the recovery is lagging because of the opposition, yet the vote was only delayed by a week because the Republican Party couldn't even get enough people in the room.
Now they have a "new and improved" law, but still nothing. We'll see when anything actually happens.

steelfox98 said:Kazo Bačić is finally out of prison, which might just settle the score with Šveb once and for all.
Some guy on TV actually had the nerve to say, "He's returning to where he’s loved." 🤣

What is it with the Bačić family and their obsession with causing drama?
Are they even related? 🤣

Emily Smith6 said:A bribed councilman’s confession: "They can't prove anything against me; everything was just a verbal agreement..."

Quincy:
The director of the Sierra Club, Elizabeth Warren, testified about how her party leader Harvey Pitt (Liberal Party) and Mayor John McCain (Republican Party) were ordering both the bribery of council members and the hiring of political cronies within the company.

So this is the "change" promised by the Republican-Liberal Coalition, I suppose.

Poor thing. 😒

I honestly feel like the Republican Party pulls these stunts on purpose—stealing and lying just to keep their voter base hooked.
There's no other way to look at it.
If an actually honest Republican ever showed up (yeah, I know, good luck with that), nobody from their side would even give them the time of day.
It’s like the bigger the crook, the more respect they get.

Noah Perez5 said:I think we're looking at the inevitable result of decades of eroding standards and systematically crushing any sense of hope.

The recent post from the Belomanastir Republican Party about fixing a single water fountain in the middle of town was almost comical.

People have lost faith that things can actually improve, and I feel like you can really sense that hopelessness settling in across the Midwest now.

We've reached a point where people are actually celebrating a "renovated" fountain; I mean, back in the Middle Ages, maybe that would have been considered an achievement, but is that really supposed to be a competitive advantage over the other party in this day and age?!

As I've mentioned before, any sense of quality has been totally destroyed, and they're selling people absolute nonsense that somehow manages to pass for progress.

It's truly pathetic.

Reminds me of an episode of Hogar and Helga.
Hogar attacked Paris and took a pipe Helga was carrying as loot.
He was totally stunned because the gift wasn't even that great, so he tried to justify it by saying: "but water used to leak out of this thing!" 😁

Our friends from Canada 🤣
They screw us over whenever they get the chance, and we just sit here like obedient little servants 🙏

Canada lifted restrictions for Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and Austria, but not for America

Quincy:
The FBI expanded its investigation today against the head of a small town in rural America, Nediljko bubnjar, following an inquiry launched back in January regarding the misappropriation of at least $140,000 in municipal funds for personal use.

Without naming the defendant directly, the FBI reported that from January 3rd through December 29th, 2019, Bubnjar used municipal debit and credit cards to withdraw at least $3.75 via ATMs or bank branches to cover his own expenses.

Furthermore, he used those same cards to pay for private costs totaling at least $46 at various restaurants, grocery stores, and other retail locations both here in the States and abroad.

"In this manner, he obtained improper financial benefits totaling at least $49, causing losses to the municipality of this small town in rural America," the FBI stated.

The investigation into Bubnjar was originally kicked off in January because he allegedly spent a similar amount using nearly identical methods just one year prior.

Back in June of last year, the FBI filed charges against Bubnjar and his former deputy, Kristina Erlić, over suspicions that they defrauded the small town of nearly $300 through abuse of power and forgery.

In that specific instance, Bubnjar faces allegations of fabricating official business trips to justify per diem payments and travel expenses, while also withdrawing municipal cash for his own personal gain.
And hey, didn't that reporter catch the Attorney General in a secret meeting with the defendant Maček?

damn it 🙂

Check out this guy, such an artist 😵

Quincy:
"I backed Tomasi back when my Anna was up for Secretary of Culture (Stanley just laughed at me, haha)."
Quincy:
Stanley later asked him if it was stupid to support Tomasi just because of his wife.

"It was definitely stupid, but I'd do anything for her," he said.

And then the Secretary acts all smug: "Maybe the problem is just the virus." 😵

urbanrider8 said:Did we really expect anything else?

So, we’re still waiting on the official results from the Department's inspection, but according to what we’ve heard through the grapevine from some high-ranking officials within the agency, the inspectors didn't find a single irregularity or mistake made by the staff at the Senior Center Split. We’re also hearing unofficially that the people handling this case believe everything was done strictly by the book, following all the guidelines set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department for Demography, Family, Youth, and Social Policy regarding the prevention of coronavirus infections, and they fully expect that's exactly what will be stated in the final inspection report.

I honestly had no idea the CDC issued a rule saying centenarians need to run a fever for ten days before they even bother calling a doctor.
Must have missed that bit in the news.☕

Mark Hughes36 said:The little right-wing factions within the Republican Party love to whine about their own leadership... it’s been the same tired routine for thirty years. Meanwhile, the party insiders just keep looting the system, using those same small right-wing groups as a pathetic smoke screen to distract a specific slice of the electorate. 🙏 🤣

And those tiny right-wing circles? They’re nothing more than a cheap way to manufacture outrage. 🤣

I’d say those tiny right-wing groups actually help them steal from and tear apart America while they constantly warn everyone about a Grand Coalition 😁
They're just worried they won't get their cut 🙄

Oh no, a Grand Coalition, how scary!
A Grand Coalition, boohoo!
