its so funny to watch lib reporters try to be tough on Biden so they can counter the assumed incoming right wing pushback about going soft, but they don't know how to not drool over him.

This a situation where reality has a liberal(or perhaps non-Trump) bias. The previous president tried to steal an election... he never participated in the peaceful transition of power. The powerful people in the GOP went along with it. Trump was a cruel lunatic throughout most of the 4 years... he referred to the free press as the enemy of the people. So reporters not acknowledging the change that has taken place are not reporting accurately.

I've watched every press briefing under Biden so far and reporters have done a decent job. They even float some of the bad faith arguments from the right, which I think is acceptable, because the media needs to be adversarial.

It's not the job of journalists to pretend that both sides have equally valid arguments, or that they behave in the same manner. They aren't referees in between the right and the left.. they are supposed to have standards based on evidence, and the truth. With those standards, the right-wing(and Republicans) will fall short most of the time.

This is mainly the part that I was getting at. Some of the press conference questions have been dumb as shit after the initial burst of real questions, and you can tell its purely to look like they're "going hard" its just amusing is all.

Honestly I don't mind because she should be ready to take down some of the silly right-wing talking points. Her answer on Biden not wearing a mask at the Lincoln memorial was weak.. her people need to pay more attention to the right-wing gutter tbh.

If she has an opportunity to respond to right-wing nonsense with substantive answers, I think it'll be a benefit to the administration.

Agreed. Was a dumb question if you're a even moderately good faith actor, and a dumb answer.
"unlike most of the general populace he and his family have been getting tested 24/7, have had multiple doses of the vaccine"
not
"he was celebrating" ????

Forget drool. They are straight up Jeffrey Toobin-ing themselves live on air.

Quote
Washington (CNN)President Joe Biden will sign an executive order Monday aimed at boosting American manufacturing, setting in motion a process to fulfill his campaign pledge to strengthen the federal government's Buy American rules.

Similar executive orders signed by former President Donald Trump had little effect because his administration waited to formalize changes until his second to last day in office. By contrast, Biden will set a 180-day deadline to deliver on fundamental change to the process, according to an administration official.

"He believes we can rebuild the vitality of American manufacturing and our industrial strength. A big piece of that is centered around the idea that when we use taxpayer money to rebuild America, we buy American and we support American jobs," the official said.


Biden Populist.

I know you thought that was a huuuuuuuuge point but it wasn't. Unions can support a candidate and both agree and disagree with that candidate. People can, too. You can't. You seem to have your mouth sewed onto Trump's asshole for some reason.

That pipeline only provided 35 permanent jobs. The union members lost this job and will go on to pick up another. That's the way the world works.

EndlessSky is honestly a moron guys. Does he think that, because the pipeline is cancelled and 35 jobs are gone that unions suddenly stopped supporting Biden?

Here in Missouri the GOP legislature (tea party GOP, not real Americans) tried to pass Right to work. We voted it down. Then those same GOP tried to force right to work on us. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers came together, went door to door and campaigned to shut that shit down. We did. The people won.

If you see a union that primarily votes Republican then they are either in a state where the GOP are still good, honest Republicans or they're a grift from the Tea Party -> Q Anon -> Trump terrorists

Also, EndlessSky, a mod already confirmed you're the one reporting my posts. You're the biggest baby I've never met. I'm 29 years old man. I've been on the internet since like 1995. I am of the opinion that you are the most pathetic individual I have ever interacted with on the internet. I'd rather talk to the Q Anon goons than you. You are 100% the type of person to kick the ball onto the train tracks so no one else gets to play if you can't play.

Like, dude, every single post you make is either seething with jealousy, pettiness or outright stupidity. I used to respect your opinion even if I didn't agree with you but the last few months you've really put all your eggs in the Trump basket. That was your own fault dude. Everyone here with any sort of education said Trump was a moron. And just because your guy lost you're acting like the game doesn't matter anymore and the world is coming to an end.

You're just a really, really poor loser dude. Most people would rather spend time around someone that's a complete dick than someone that doesn't lose well.
