Also no mention of court packing, something Biden was dead against but now he is in power is worth looking at.

bks! He promised a bipartisan review of the justice system and this is it!
AIUI the size of SCOTUS doesn't need a new law, and it makes sense to have 1 justice per circuit, as it used to be, which means a few more

It's something I'd be massively in favour of. The democrats need to learn how to be a ruthless as the Reps when they get their hands on the levers of power.

However given the source i reckon I'll be disappointed.

"Overall, we rate En Volve extreme right biased and Questionable based on a complete lack of transparency, promotion of propaganda and conspiracy theories as well as the use of poor sources, failed fact checks, and sensationalized fake news."

PRTVR really is a bit of a case, isn't he?

I agree, time for Joe to kick ass! GOP will never negotiate in good faith, they only have 2 years for certain to do a lot!
The problem also lies with traitorous assholes like Machin and Sinema

Nancy "Good morning, Sunday morning" Pelosi was quite outspoken in her desire to pack the court, I'm sure that's pure coincidence though, Biden would definitely have come up with this scheme all on his own, whilst trying to remember which day it is.

Why not, plenty of other countries are annoyed about, for example, Amazon's (other corporate examples are available) practices of moving profits to low-tax jurisdictions.
If enough countries could agree then it might actually work and could help contribute a little to, say, paying off huge Covid debts.

I think the French have introduced/were trying to introduce a digital tax to target this activity by the likes of Amazon, Facebook, Google but Trump's government threatened them with retaliatory action.
I thought the UK just tried that and Biden threatened sanctions

As an interested observer with no dog in the hunt I'd suggest it's pretty clear to anyone without a bias that Biden is not in a fit state mentally or physically for the job and his decline is sad to watch. With regard to Kamala I'm led to believe she is universally unpopular so perhaps the Democratic party are holding off for as long as absolutely possible so it doesn't look like it was always the plan?

The latest furore over voter ID I find very interesting. Likening the expectation for ID to be provided in order to vote to Jim Crow laws and companies like Coca Cola and the NL jumping in to give their support seems very sinister. Isn't ID an expectation to do almost anything in the US, much of it less important than proving your eligibility to vote for who governs you?
You're a known Trumpette.

Also you're wrong.

Very poor troll 1 out of 10. Would not read again.
Have a look at the admissions made by a CNN director bragging about their propaganda machine during the election. Quite interesting that he says that now people are suffering Covid news "fatigue" they are going to start ramping up Climate change fear.

Yes, he threatened 25% on exports if digital services tax was implemented.

You realise "Director" has a rather specific meaning in TV Broadcasting:

I'm curious why you feel the need to keep embarrassing yourself?

Because 15 year olds often do?

I see from another thread the Dems are offering $9000 in funeral grants to add Covid to your deceased relative's death certificate. That's one way to buy the figures, I suppose.

You know that the relatives of a deceased person aren't the ones who determine the cause of death or complete the death certificate, right? Surely you're not that stupid?

It's a grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to assist with burial costs when burying relatives who died due to Covid. The same approach has been taken by the agency in the past after natural disasters.

re the part I bolded - haven't you read any of Ronald's other posts? The answer to your question is pretty obvious...

That's what I was getting at.
Media bias is baked into the system over there so no one can complain. It's part of the game.

The "source" is actually a CNN director, but please do keep your denial up. I knew the socialist deflector shields would be raised immediately biggrin
