President Joe Biden - Kamala Harris Administration

Way to go Joe!

Biden predicts gas prices won't go down until 2022

Even Biden knows Biden sucks.

And still caucus with Democrats, so the entire thing is show.

Not really. It would swap Senate leadership back to the GOP.

Well I didn't think about the numbers, but yeah that would shift control back to the turtle. I still don't think Manchin crosses the fence.

I don’t think he will either. He was asked directly if the rumors where true and he described them as bovine excrement I believe.

******** he said. I think a lot of this "Manchin leaves the party" stuff is just palace intrigue. Sausage making ain't ever been pretty.

Thanks Joe you are crushing it yet again.

The shipping crisis in California is now so bad that officials should consider declaring a state of emergency, the head of the California Trucking Association says

Just being cynical but this is so bad I almost wonder if it's setting up the kind of scenario the EL's of the world tried using with other metrics. Use the pandemic low points as the "Thanks Joe!" for any improvements instead of pre-pandemic indicators. Look for whenever this transportation mess is cleaned up at all to be something the administration should be receiving laurels for instead of it being pointed out they just managed to throw some water on the fire they started.

guess we're learning the meaning of the term "transitory"

Fed's Jerome Powell says high inflation likely to last 'well into next year' | Seeking Alpha

• High inflation is "likely to last well into next year; the same is true for pressures on wages," said Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell in a panel discussion hosted by the Bank of International Settlement and the South African Reserve Bank.

You up?

Went to bed right after that - thought it was earlier, but the timestamp doesn't lie.

@Witch_Doctor - add timestamp never lie to your repertoire

Don't you like how the "transitory" part never goes away? Inflation never quite works out to be a bubble like a runaway stock market bubble - it's more like a turn of the ratchet. One end result is that since legislatures don't re-index things like tax rates, there are just more and more ways people are screwed - paying more and getting less. You never really know what's going on in the rest of the world because they've got problems like energy supply and cost to deal with, too, but if our inflation is a mostly isolated event it screws us in any number of ways. The worst is that it further tilts our disadvantage with respect to economic competitiveness. Perhaps another round won by the Chinese and their manipulated economy. I'm still unconvinced that covid was purely accidental, and that we are way to naive to think so.

If costs of all kinds including labor fall back when and if the economy normalizes, then that's one thing. History says it doesn't work that way.

The Biden Administration wants to force employers to financially invest in companies driving their liberal agenda - New Department of Labor Rules designed to try to force Retirement Plans to invest in ESG funds.

Department of Labor proposes rule to add political directives to retirement savings

Did we learn absolutely nothing from the sub-prime disaster?

Overall, the skewing of home purchases to older Americans is a concerning trend, given that homeownership is equated with the American Dream for many.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed. The White Housewants to make the path to ownership smoother and more accessible for first-time homebuyers, and the Biden administration recently announced a series of measures meant to combat major obstacles to homeownership. They plan to increase the housing supply and expand financing opportunities.

Yeah… my reply to my advisor will be written and will state to not include any ESG component in judging a funds potential ROI based solely on ESG merits.

My reply to the idiot in chief and DOL is below.

Biden admin. 'officially recognizing' link between climate change, migration

It’s the tropical weather and warm waters of the Caribbean that’s really driving all those Haitians to the US border.

Surprised there’s no discussion of Fauci lying to Congress and the American people about the NIH funding the wuhan lab

Probably because anyone with any sense already knew Fauci was lying through his teeth.

This is dumb and terrible.

This is dumb and terrible.

Isn't literally everything this admin does dumb and terrible?

[JOEY'S ALL VOL !!!]

Even Biden knows Biden sucks.

As well he should. I seriously doubt he knows the limitations of his suckdom though. He’s setting the bar awfully awfully high in terms of sheer sucktitude for any other future President. I still find it unbelievably shocking that 81million+ individuals could be that completely ignorant. It is mind boggling sad.

 

[JOEY'S ALL VOL !!!]

This is dumb and terrible.

Certainly is, but the question is ... is it surprising? Does this shock you at this point ?

 

[Vol423]

Damn. This almost made me spit out my coffee.

 

[RikidyBones]

She said that with a straight face. Astonishing

 

[JOEY'S ALL VOL !!!]

She said that with a straight face. Astonishing

Should be astonishing, but with this admin, eh ... just par for the course. Absolutely nothing shocks me with this group of twisted imbecilic scum.
