Gotta add racism to genocide, war, and nuclear brinkmanship. Whether it was intentional or not, his personal investment in all that Clinton era "crime" legislation put an entire generation of Black men behind bars.
Of course it was intentional. He advertised his ability to compromise with documented racists like Strom Thurmond and Robert Byrd. And when the extremist Clarence Thomas was nominated for the Supreme Court, he oversaw the unconscionable sliming of Anita Hill, and shut down an investigation into her claims against Thomas.
The fact that Hillary Clinton is teaching at Columbia University is an utter disgrace and it is encouraging that some students are saying so. That war criminals walk the street is deplorable; that they get to teach in Universities is despicable. So where is her PhD and record of academic achievement.
And many more behind bars to come esp. for both black and brown communities - they've been building more private for profit prisons all these last years as well as ICE indefinite detention facilities and training police in military tactics in "COP Cities" with the help of IDF expertise on controlling unwanted populations. And for slave labor.
Granted, 1st amendment takes priority. But Joe's sociological bent underpinned a disdain for writing careful legislation that didn't penalize working class folks -- of all derivations -- from getting trampled on by the legal system, Black men over-represented in the lower economic strata and therefore also in the legal tangles of those shitty laws. Ergo, Joe exhibited his scumbag carelessness as a political mediocrity for his supposed constituency, the Dems back then really thumping the "party of working people" drum. It's not simple, but any way you slice it, Joe's attitude toward people made him ill-qualified to represent them as a senator; to then see the mediocrity become president gave me frickin' tremendous heartburn.
You made your point, and I just told you I'm also a first amendment absolutist -- not much else left to defend in this country. So you do not need to preach to me. Thank you.
Joseph R. Biden will be written up in the history books as a warmongering, genocidal maniac, blithering idiot who plagiarized his papers in college and ran several times unsuccessfully for president only to be finally installed so Bernie Sanders couldn't get the nomination and pull the DNC slightly toward the center rather than to the right. Rest in pieces, Genocide Joe!
Unfortunately, short of the U.S. being over run by a foreign power, it will never happen. Remember they are the ones who write the history and most of Western history so far is complete and utter bullshit. The only way that truth will come into the history books is if this is what happens. The worst part of this is they'd rather have a nuclear holocaust than allow that to happen. If this is the case there will be no one left to write the history.
>>"Joseph R. Biden will be written up in the history books as a warmongering, genocidal maniac"
I only wish this truly happens - though knowing America's habit of revisionist history (and awarding Nobel Peace Prizes to War Criminals), I have my doubts.
It was a good article - until they reached "40,000 Palestinians". No matter who writes or how noble, to limit the deaths in Gaza to the already total 3 months in, after 3x that in long savage genocide is just unbearable. I DON'T CARE that the exact figures are unknown, fucking accurately GUESS. it is well over 200,000, that is for sure.
"The Israelis will be unhappy with us if we say more than 40,000!!".
That is literally what I see when these writers say 40,000, when every single day there has been massacres of hundreds.
It must be well over 300,000 if you factor-in the injured who died in horrible agony, despair and loneliness underneath the rubble and in makeshift hospital tents without medicines and anaesthetics. The horror of that keeps me awake. The ultra apartheid state has killed with pure glee and hatred!
It's no longer hard for me to imagine the British empire alone killed up to 200,000,000 during its global reign of terror - and the "elites" planned the entire thing.
Or that they would do the same to us, normal Western populations, in an eyeblink.
Thanks Gnuneo for highlighting how the terrible death count of the Palestinian people is kept hovering at the 40,000 mark. The Israeli carnage goes on yet the number of murdered human beings remains the same.
Ralph Nader has estimated it as closer to 200,000.
Not only can they - the Western media - not count, wilfully I might add, the world watches on...... the extermination of a people.
Similarly, in Vietnam, USA owned 2 million murders of people who never attacked or threatened it when credible estimates put the numbers at 7 or 8 million. That would put
the USA in league with Netanyhitler's hero and mentor.
Mea culpa. In my defence, this was written before the Lancet report gave a small window into the extent of the horrors in Gaza. I have consistently maintained and writtwn in subsequent articles on my Substack that at least over a quarter million Palestinians have been slaughtered since October 7.
Their crying over Harris losing to Rex Tillerson's 'fucking moron' is down to it being a matter of degree. Biden was unarguably a truly awful failure in so many ways and Harris was all part of the last four years. tRump is simply even more awful and even more dangerous and that's the bottom line. The added distaste we feel for the demented, soulless, vindictive prick is that he'll take an extremely flawed 'democracy' and gradually pull what's left of it apart. His billionaire mates will further prosper and tRump will bask in the glory of their success. The hoi polloi among his voters can whistle Dixie if they think things will improve for them and the fact he wants Netanyahu to 'finish the job' in Gaza apparently bothers them not a jot. A more than somewhat deranged Bobby Kennedy Jr ain't gonna help in a pandemic, or in women's reproductive rights. It's going to be wild ride, all right and he's barely started.
If you've been hoodwinked by John Campbell (the opportunist and bullshit artist and gaslighter galore), then here are some videos that I hope will set you straight (with critical thinking and facts) :
Number 1. - Campbell is not an anti-vaxxer, he is a former, highly respected lecturer of nurses, and you don't become or stay in such a post by being "anti-vaxx". What he IS, is extremely critical of the covid-19 vaccines testing, or lack thereof. You should note, as you're clearly of the "deplatforming" mentality, that he himself HAD the covid-19 vaccinations. Very odd thing to do for what you claim you know as an "anti-vaxxer".
2. I watched the beginning of your vid 2, and frankly she would give Astrologers a bad name. One big difference between him and her is that he gives the links of the medical papers upon which he bases his talks - anyone can go and read them too. Whereas all she does is make bald statements, without backing them up. Of course, when that is confirming what you already have faith on, it's little wonder you don't spot that. Confirmation bias, ouch.
Your video 3 is the same BS from the same woman, I'm not going to waste my time watching.
Ohh, it's 4 as well.
Whatever about RFK, I really don't give a shit. He's not going to have control over here, and frankly the USA could really do with someone cleaning up the produced (toxic) food industry.
You genuinely have no idea about anything about John Campbell, you watch some sneering smug narcissistic sociopath, and think you are clever by repeating their points. It's SAD, is what it is. And I don't mean winter sickness.
You SHOULD watch this - but you won't, because you'll be confused by the title and your disconceptions of him and his message. If you manage to - which I highly doubt - I'd love to hear your then informed opinion of his actual arguments; perhaps you could disprove his thesis, although you may even agree with it - to your great shock. But I know you won't watch it, and I'll know immediately by what you claim he's saying in it - which will be the direct opposite of what he's actually saying. It's a neat test of your honesty.
FWIW, the first time we 'met' on substack, you spouted some absolute immature garbage, with all the force and confidence of an Oxbridge graduate - which I never bothered reading, and told you so. When you have some white hairs on you, get back in touch and we'll demolish your essays together.
Then we had a period of being agreeable, being both liberal sorts.
I knew this would happen again though, because your ears are so wet and you imagine you know everything - like most well educated tweenies do, and far too many older folk.
You literally think someone posting their own opinions confidently, is superior to someone who links to the actual articles of the studies. And you still want me to take you seriously.
Honestly, find someone who doesn't look and talk like Mystic Meg to back up your opinions next time.
Doesn't feel good does it to be made a fool of and conned by your heroes, does it? You have my sympathies. It'll take some time to come to terms with the reality. In the meantime, here are some more videos that EXPOSE the fraud/grifter/spreader-of-misinformation John Campbell. Enjoy.
(1) Campbell IS an anti-vaxxer. The FACT that he has fooled so many with his "dubious" credentials (lecturer of nurses, not virologist or Epidemiologist or even a practicing doctor), british accent, and "lying with statistics" superpowers says much about the critical thinking abilities of normal people. (Watch the vidoes on YouTube debunking John Campbell - but I know you won't since that will create cognitive dissonance in your mind)
(2) >>"She would give astrologers a bad name" -> EXACTLY! Astrology is pseudo-science (there's enough evidence of that)
(3) >>One big difference between him and her is that he gives the links of the medical papers upon which he bases his talks" -> Did you even watch any of the videos on YouTube? Obviously not, since you would have realized the copious amount of links/documentation provided in EACH video.
(4) >>"Confirmation bias, ouch" -> I don't think you know the first thing about confirmation bias. Maybe examine yours? (based on logic, not pre-existing belief systems)
(5) >>"FWIW, the first time we 'met' on substack, you spouted some absolute immature garbage" -> really? what evidence? So what you don't understand is garbage? Try critical thinking for a change. And there you go with ad hominem attacks when your "hero" is attacked and brought down with facts and logic (yes, no one likes the deconstruction of their fake/false heroes).
(6) >>"which I never bothered reading, and told you so" -> it was about Jimmy Dore - and yes, that attitude of "not bothering to read" is a typical defense mechanism from someone that doesn't want to question their belief systems, shys from cognitive dissonance, and is afraid of their "hero" (Jimmy Dore here) being dismantled for the fake persona that he is.
From your comment, it is apparent that the truth (about John Campbell) has irritated you and brought up your defense mechanisms. Hence, instead of using logic, science, and critical thinking, you prefer to use ad-hominem attacks. WATCH THE VIDEOS. Know what you are talking of before you talk (or read/watch before talking).
And again, ALL you have is ad-hominem attacks - a sign that you have already lost the argument in your mind. Don't worry, you are in good company - lots of anti-vaxxers here on Substack.
Caitlin has written Joe Biden's epitaph - a very fitting one.
All US Presidents are war criminals, but he most of all paved the way for a second coming of a Trump. Just imagine he could have redeemed himself somewhat if in his last days at the White House, he stopped arming Israel.
He would never stop arming Israel. He declared himself to be a Zionist many years ago. He and Netanyahu are birds of a feather. The more I learn about him, the more I realize how he has bamboozled the American people and the rest of the "democratic" world. Trump is horrible but at least it is right there and obvious. He doesn't hide behind soft spoken words and a kind old man smile.
And Democrats will continue to pretend that all of this isn't blatantly obvious. They act like the reelection of Trump is shocking when they actually managed to give us a President that made Trump look good by comparison.
The government didn't force anyone to take the vaccine, with the possible exception of military personnel; why do antivaxxers keep saying this?
That being said, I do think Biden handled COVID very poorly, particularly in acting like the vaccine meant the end of the pandemic. While the vaccine was helpful (I got one, but never bothered with a booster since I got COVID anyway), the virus had already mutated to the point of being vaccine resistant. This was a known fact by health officials, but the Biden administration gave misleading information. Also under Biden, the CDC lowered the quarantine time from ten days to five days, not based on any science, but based on a request from Delta Airlines' CEO.
The main things I take issue with the Biden administration over are as follows:
1. Leading up to the invasion of Ukraine, Biden was shipping billions of dollars in weapons to Russia's border, and everyone was saying Biden was going to provoke Russia into doing something ugly. Russia invading Ukraine was exactly what Biden wanted: a proxy war to make Russia look bad and exhaust their resources without commitment of American troops. When Ukraine was willing to start peace talks, Biden talked them out of it. Biden wants war in Ukraine. (He apparently also wants one in Taiwan, as we are shipping weapons there, despite the US not even recognizing Taiwan as an independent nation. This would be like China shipping weapons to Hawaii.)
2. Inflation was out of control these last four years. It wasn't a problem with the economy that Biden created, but was rather price gouging by greedy corporations. Yes, Biden didn't cause it, but he also didn't do anything to fight it.
3. The Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade, and while this was due to Trump stacking the Court, Biden didn't do anything whatsoever to respond to the crisis. Democrats could have killed the filibuster and pushed through a law protecting reproductive rights. Biden could have expanded the Court, as was done before in history. NOTHING was done.
4. Biden, who Democrats keep calling "the most pro-union President ever," broke the railroad workers' strike, which was largely about safety. Shortly after this, a train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, causing one of the worst ecological disasters in history.
5. Israel was attacked by Hamas on October 7th, 2023, and while I do not condone the attack (although as an occupied nation undergoing ethnic cleansing, it was arguably not a war crime), Israel's response has been to murder somewhere in the neighborhood of 200,000 Palestinian civilians. This is absolutely genocide according to the United Nations' definition, and it has been chiefly powered by American weapons. No weapon has gone to Israel that was not approved by Biden.
6. Democrats keep saying the economy is great under Biden, but all I can seem to see is record levels of poverty and homelessness. I don't care how the stock market is while Americans sleep in the street, and the Supreme Court allows making it a crime.
This is just off the top of my head; there's really so much more. And Kamala Harris said if she was in charge, she would have done nothing different. Is it really a surprise that Americans didn't turn out to vote for her?
dx read it correctly. the hope is that donald starts using the horrors the us empire inflicted on the world, at home and that this will at last inspire the tame american populace to rise up against the duopoly (but they're such a primitive, spineless bunch, and their masters had so much practice ...).
i'm not saying trump is good. i don't think he has an 'ethos'. just like biden and kamala he represents corporate interests. your government is, and always has been, of, for, and by a few people (the elite). those who work in your government always were the employees of that elite. the heritage foundation releases a 'project 2025' every election cycle. dems just decided to use it as a bogey-man this time. they themselves have surely implemented policies taken from previous editions.
the hope is not in trump doing anything, the hope is in the american people at last doing something and waking up from their bedtime story that their government has ever been 'of, for and by the people'.
the citizens don't realize they were quadruple tricked since birth, like when they think they've only been propagandized since obama signed it into law. the duopoly's victory is again very real and deeper than before.
I think those who are working to undermine Our self evident unalienable rights, They should be harshly punished for Their treason against the Constitution.
We have all the laws we need to address this issue.
The U.S. needs to be broken up, or turned into a type of loose Confederacy for Socialism to take root in a selected States. The (single) state has to have strong industry and be culturally homogeneous to function properly.
Not necessarily based only on the race, but more on the historic background, work ethics, etc. That's why Scandinavian "socialism" works, or Chinese. Yugoslavia, helped by the outside actors, disintegrated because of petty historical grievances. Even though they were in the majority genetically indistinguishable.
Biden wrote the Patriot Act in 1995 just waiting for a chance to put it in play. He also got the bankruptcy bill passed that made it harder for we the people to declare bankruptcy, but easy for the parasite class. He also made it darn near impossible to discharge student loans.
Biden has always been a racist, arrogant and mean SoB. I’m just glad that when he finally got to play president his mind was so far gone that he made a fool of himself in front of the world!
You can't tell your base that you're fighting to protect democracy and actively commit a genocide. You've taught liberals that jews were victims of the worst mass murder in history and now you see their same ancestors have ZERO problem with genocide being done directly by them to someone who isn't them. That fucks up the liberals’ worldview. It creates a cognitive dissonance that you claim only fascists support. Israel is the Holocaust perpetrator. Israel is the Holocaust denier. How's that for cognitive dissonance, democrats? I'm not going to be gaslighted into supporting genocide and feel sorry for the democrats chickens coming home to roost. If democrats actively commit genocide in Gaza, how will they oppose it if it comes to America?
Biden’s legacy also includes weaponizing the so called justice department against political opposition. Also censoring opinions that he and his admin doesn’t agree with instead of allowing free speech that would allow both sides of an issue to be heard.
Very good, this is one of the best pieces that you have written or more correctly that I have read! I felt every word of that and it delivers the punch that I long felt festering in my pyche.
I thank you for your bravery and honesty . You have voiced the truth as we all know it and for some who don’t want to admit it . I am outraged with some democrats blaming the Muslims who did not vote for Harris. Threats don’t always work . And some were able to see through the jargon. ‘ Deceptive Goodness is more Dangerous ………..’ I believe the young can see through it .
Antonio Gramsci says it beautifully ‘ The Old World is dying , And the New World struggles to be Born - Now is the time for Monsters.
Gaza has taught me to draw my Strength from The All Good, The Compassionate, The All Merciful.
Thank you Caitlin, for this concise, truthful obituary for this horrible man. You could add that he deported more immigrants than Trump did in his first term. One can only hope that Americans will not invent a new (and false) history for Biden as they have done for American history generally (Americans are not alone in doing that).
Viva Palestine!--Hamas and ALL of Palestine! Viva Lebanon and the entire valiant Axis of Resistance opposed to the malevolent designs of Colonial Zionism, the abomination that includes Biden and 95 percent of the entangled US "leadership" in its ranks...as well as, of course, the Colonial/Genocidal platform illegally occupying the once-'holy' land with arrogance and accustomed impunity.
Gotta add racism to genocide, war, and nuclear brinkmanship. Whether it was intentional or not, his personal investment in all that Clinton era "crime" legislation put an entire generation of Black men behind bars.
Of course it was intentional. He advertised his ability to compromise with documented racists like Strom Thurmond and Robert Byrd. And when the extremist Clarence Thomas was nominated for the Supreme Court, he oversaw the unconscionable sliming of Anita Hill, and shut down an investigation into her claims against Thomas.
Thanks. My comment definitely needed supplementation.
I remember that and was truly horrified.
Racism is endemic to US foreign policy.
The fact that Hillary Clinton is teaching at Columbia University is an utter disgrace and it is encouraging that some students are saying so. That war criminals walk the street is deplorable; that they get to teach in Universities is despicable. So where is her PhD and record of academic achievement.
and what does she "teach" ? just curious .
She is teaching international relations.
And many more behind bars to come esp. for both black and brown communities - they've been building more private for profit prisons all these last years as well as ICE indefinite detention facilities and training police in military tactics in "COP Cities" with the help of IDF expertise on controlling unwanted populations. And for slave labor.
I think the USA has the largest Prison system in the world and still had the Death Penalty in some states!
Got to keep those Private Prisons going!
Always the bottom line rules. Always, US politicians comply with that "golden rule".
racism is not always politically evil
It is supported by Freedom of RACIST Speech etc.
Equal protection under the law is another issue
Granted, 1st amendment takes priority. But Joe's sociological bent underpinned a disdain for writing careful legislation that didn't penalize working class folks -- of all derivations -- from getting trampled on by the legal system, Black men over-represented in the lower economic strata and therefore also in the legal tangles of those shitty laws. Ergo, Joe exhibited his scumbag carelessness as a political mediocrity for his supposed constituency, the Dems back then really thumping the "party of working people" drum. It's not simple, but any way you slice it, Joe's attitude toward people made him ill-qualified to represent them as a senator; to then see the mediocrity become president gave me frickin' tremendous heartburn.
"Granted, 1st amendment takes priority."
ALL rights work that way
Including Freedom of RACIST Association
You made your point, and I just told you I'm also a first amendment absolutist -- not much else left to defend in this country. So you do not need to preach to me. Thank you.
The first amendment does not go so far as to grant Freedom of Association
I shall take your word for it. I know SCOTUS has ruled but haven't had time or energy to pay attention.
Joseph R. Biden will be written up in the history books as a warmongering, genocidal maniac, blithering idiot who plagiarized his papers in college and ran several times unsuccessfully for president only to be finally installed so Bernie Sanders couldn't get the nomination and pull the DNC slightly toward the center rather than to the right. Rest in pieces, Genocide Joe!
Unfortunately, short of the U.S. being over run by a foreign power, it will never happen. Remember they are the ones who write the history and most of Western history so far is complete and utter bullshit. The only way that truth will come into the history books is if this is what happens. The worst part of this is they'd rather have a nuclear holocaust than allow that to happen. If this is the case there will be no one left to write the history.
>>"Joseph R. Biden will be written up in the history books as a warmongering, genocidal maniac"
I only wish this truly happens - though knowing America's habit of revisionist history (and awarding Nobel Peace Prizes to War Criminals), I have my doubts.
Me too, but in a hypothetical "perfect world" perhaps? Sigh.

The FACT that he has fooled so many with his "dubious" credentials (lecturer of nurses, not virologist or Epidemiologist or even a practicing doctor), british accent, and "lying with statistics" superpowers says much about the critical thinking abilities of normal people. (Watch the vidoes on YouTube debunking John Campbell - but I know you won't since that will create cognitive dissonance in your mind)
(2) >>"She would give astrologers a bad name" -> EXACTLY! Astrology is pseudo-science (there's enough evidence of that)
(3) >>One big difference between him and her is that he gives the links of the medical papers upon which he bases his talks" -> Did you even watch any of the videos on YouTube? Obviously not, since you would have realized the copious amount of links/documentation provided in EACH video.
(4) >>"Confirmation bias, ouch" -> I don't think you know the first thing about confirmation bias. Maybe examine yours? (based on logic, not pre-existing belief systems)
(5) >>"FWIW, the first time we 'met' on substack, you spouted some absolute immature garbage" -> really? what evidence? So what you don't understand is garbage? Try critical thinking for a change. And there you go with ad hominem attacks when your "hero" is attacked and brought down with facts and logic (yes, no one likes the deconstruction of their fake/false heroes).
(6) >>"which I never bothered reading, and told you so" -> it was about Jimmy Dore - and yes, that attitude of "not bothering to read" is a typical defense mechanism from someone that doesn't want to question their belief systems, shys from cognitive dissonance, and is afraid of their "hero" (Jimmy Dore here) being dismantled for the fake persona that he is.
From your comment, it is apparent that the truth (about John Campbell) has irritated you and brought up your defense mechanisms. Hence, instead of using logic, science, and critical thinking, you prefer to use ad-hominem attacks. WATCH THE VIDEOS. Know what you are talking of before you talk (or read/watch before talking).
And again, ALL you have is ad-hominem attacks - a sign that you have already lost the argument in your mind. Don't worry, you are in good company - lots of anti-vaxxers here on Substack.
Well said David Baird!
Caitlin has written Joe Biden's epitaph - a very fitting one.
All US Presidents are war criminals, but he most of all paved the way for a second coming of a Trump. Just imagine he could have redeemed himself somewhat if in his last days at the White House, he stopped arming Israel.
He would never stop arming Israel. He declared himself to be a Zionist many years ago. He and Netanyahu are birds of a feather. The more I learn about him, the more I realize how he has bamboozled the American people and the rest of the "democratic" world. Trump is horrible but at least it is right there and obvious. He doesn't hide behind soft spoken words and a kind old man smile.
"he has bamboozled the American people" - in the words of Russian poet Pushkin "it's easy to deceive me - I am looking forward to it."
Exactly Susan T! What you see is what you get... but I dearly wish that he wouldn't expose his crudity for the whole world to see.
That would be the sensible thing to do.
Last chance, Brandon. ;)
"he most of all paved the way for a second coming of a Trump" - and that must be his most egregious crime!
Indu - welcome to the TDS manager team. chokaski, ron something, and now you 😉🤣
🙄😬🤢👎🏾
And Democrats will continue to pretend that all of this isn't blatantly obvious. They act like the reelection of Trump is shocking when they actually managed to give us a President that made Trump look good by comparison.
I disagree.
Nothing can make Trump look good.
I have observed Trump for 10 years now.
Thousands of hours.
For anything that he has said or done that is truthful, useful, good, or ethical.
There are tens of thousands of lies, ad hominem attacks, cheap manipulations, all manner of evils.
Trump is a flaming, malignant narcissist.
The worst that I have ever observed.
And that is WITH all the damage control.
Kamala, by comparison:
The Lesser of Two Evils.
By (arguably) several orders of magnitude.
After all, like Trump, she is a Zionist.....
Too bad the voters lack this discernment. :|
I think, over the long haul, we would all be better off via Kamala.
IMHO.
Project 2025 is treason.
As a person, Trump is horrible without compare. However comparing what Trump did in four years as President to what Biden did? Biden was worse.
As for Harris, she was asked what she would have done differently in the last four years, and had no answer. That's why voters didn't show up for her.
Biden's handling of the COVID Scam was negligent. Forced vax, toxic and lethal approved remedies, heavy censorship.
People lost their jobs, homes, lives.
I know 15 people dead.
FROM THE JABS.
One guy dead from the Advertised Contagion.
True,
Biden was, in some ways, very, very bad.
That is what I think.
What do you think Biden did that was worse? :)
The government didn't force anyone to take the vaccine, with the possible exception of military personnel; why do antivaxxers keep saying this?
That being said, I do think Biden handled COVID very poorly, particularly in acting like the vaccine meant the end of the pandemic. While the vaccine was helpful (I got one, but never bothered with a booster since I got COVID anyway), the virus had already mutated to the point of being vaccine resistant. This was a known fact by health officials, but the Biden administration gave misleading information. Also under Biden, the CDC lowered the quarantine time from ten days to five days, not based on any science, but based on a request from Delta Airlines' CEO.
The main things I take issue with the Biden administration over are as follows:
1. Leading up to the invasion of Ukraine, Biden was shipping billions of dollars in weapons to Russia's border, and everyone was saying Biden was going to provoke Russia into doing something ugly. Russia invading Ukraine was exactly what Biden wanted: a proxy war to make Russia look bad and exhaust their resources without commitment of American troops. When Ukraine was willing to start peace talks, Biden talked them out of it. Biden wants war in Ukraine. (He apparently also wants one in Taiwan, as we are shipping weapons there, despite the US not even recognizing Taiwan as an independent nation. This would be like China shipping weapons to Hawaii.)
2. Inflation was out of control these last four years. It wasn't a problem with the economy that Biden created, but was rather price gouging by greedy corporations. Yes, Biden didn't cause it, but he also didn't do anything to fight it.
3. The Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade, and while this was due to Trump stacking the Court, Biden didn't do anything whatsoever to respond to the crisis. Democrats could have killed the filibuster and pushed through a law protecting reproductive rights. Biden could have expanded the Court, as was done before in history. NOTHING was done.
4. Biden, who Democrats keep calling "the most pro-union President ever," broke the railroad workers' strike, which was largely about safety. Shortly after this, a train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, causing one of the worst ecological disasters in history.
5. Israel was attacked by Hamas on October 7th, 2023, and while I do not condone the attack (although as an occupied nation undergoing ethnic cleansing, it was arguably not a war crime), Israel's response has been to murder somewhere in the neighborhood of 200,000 Palestinian civilians. This is absolutely genocide according to the United Nations' definition, and it has been chiefly powered by American weapons. No weapon has gone to Israel that was not approved by Biden.
6. Democrats keep saying the economy is great under Biden, but all I can seem to see is record levels of poverty and homelessness. I don't care how the stock market is while Americans sleep in the street, and the Supreme Court allows making it a crime.
This is just off the top of my head; there's really so much more. And Kamala Harris said if she was in charge, she would have done nothing different. Is it really a surprise that Americans didn't turn out to vote for her?
i really hope he's worse enough to get things moving in the us, but i fear americans are far too tamed.
Trump had 4 years previous to "get things moving".
He spent all that time running his vicious mouth and cheating at golf.
GOTO: YouTube >> MEIDASTOUCH for a thorough and balanced analysis of Trump and his accomplishments.
Also: ADAM MOCKLER.
For some good cheer: CASUAL GEOGRAPHIC. :)
dx read it correctly. the hope is that donald starts using the horrors the us empire inflicted on the world, at home and that this will at last inspire the tame american populace to rise up against the duopoly (but they're such a primitive, spineless bunch, and their masters had so much practice ...).
Trump, and his kind, are not going to tell us bedtime stories about morals and ethics.
You are projecting another's ethos upon Trump.
Our government is Of, For, and By the People.
Those who work in our government are our EMPLOYEES.
An employee upholds the employers ethos:
Constitution.
Bill of Rights.
Golden Rule (original iteration).
This newest hire, Trump, has forthrightly declared himself a dictator.
Released his manifesto:
PROJECT 2025.
Read it for yourself.
i'm not saying trump is good. i don't think he has an 'ethos'. just like biden and kamala he represents corporate interests. your government is, and always has been, of, for, and by a few people (the elite). those who work in your government always were the employees of that elite. the heritage foundation releases a 'project 2025' every election cycle. dems just decided to use it as a bogey-man this time. they themselves have surely implemented policies taken from previous editions.
the hope is not in trump doing anything, the hope is in the american people at last doing something and waking up from their bedtime story that their government has ever been 'of, for and by the people'.
And the citizens are beginning to realize that they were tricked.
Misinformation and disinformation.
Propaganda.
Served up in copious amounts, via MSM, alloyed to their gullibility.
Their abysmal lack of critical thinking skills.
Thanks to Obama signing a law that allows the US govt and MSM to propagandize American citizens.
A perfect storm of ignorance and deceit, which conned many-many voters into voting against their best interests.
Plus the 20 million who failed to vote at all.
The election was there by rigged.
Trump's apparent victory is illusory.
IMHO.
the citizens don't realize they were quadruple tricked since birth, like when they think they've only been propagandized since obama signed it into law. the duopoly's victory is again very real and deeper than before.
They did manage it back in 1776, so you never know! But unless it causes them enough pain personally, most will just carry on as normal I'm afraid.
I read this as hoping to get US people moving in a Revolutionary way, rather than just sitting back and sucking it up.
Wouldn't that be nice.
I, myself, don't want to die for my Freedom.
Can't enjoy it
if I be dead.
I think those who are working to undermine Our self evident unalienable rights, They should be harshly punished for Their treason against the Constitution.
We have all the laws we need to address this issue.
Project 2025
is treason.
IMHO. :)
QED https://substack.com/profile/18934062-martin
Until a socialist party is considered mainstream, the US will remain paralyzed.
The U.S. needs to be broken up, or turned into a type of loose Confederacy for Socialism to take root in a selected States. The (single) state has to have strong industry and be culturally homogeneous to function properly.
>>"...culturally homogeneous..." ?
What exactly do you mean by that? No diversity? All whites or all blacks or all hispanics or all asians or...?
Not necessarily based only on the race, but more on the historic background, work ethics, etc. That's why Scandinavian "socialism" works, or Chinese. Yugoslavia, helped by the outside actors, disintegrated because of petty historical grievances. Even though they were in the majority genetically indistinguishable.
Been my thought for years BUT the people have been brainwashed with regard to Socialism/Communism.
Don't forget about his very vocal support for the Crime Bill, Iraq War, and getting Clarence Thomas on the bench.
And yet fawning pundits during his campaign called his platform 'the most progressive in US history.'
Sickos.
Biden wrote the Patriot Act in 1995 just waiting for a chance to put it in play. He also got the bankruptcy bill passed that made it harder for we the people to declare bankruptcy, but easy for the parasite class. He also made it darn near impossible to discharge student loans.
Biden has always been a racist, arrogant and mean SoB. I’m just glad that when he finally got to play president his mind was so far gone that he made a fool of himself in front of the world!
He helped write that crime bill.
You can't tell your base that you're fighting to protect democracy and actively commit a genocide. You've taught liberals that jews were victims of the worst mass murder in history and now you see their same ancestors have ZERO problem with genocide being done directly by them to someone who isn't them. That fucks up the liberals’ worldview. It creates a cognitive dissonance that you claim only fascists support. Israel is the Holocaust perpetrator. Israel is the Holocaust denier. How's that for cognitive dissonance, democrats? I'm not going to be gaslighted into supporting genocide and feel sorry for the democrats chickens coming home to roost. If democrats actively commit genocide in Gaza, how will they oppose it if it comes to America?
To: MakeTheWorldSafeForDiversity,
Great post. I am with you all the way!
>>"Israel is the Holocaust perpetrator. Israel is the Holocaust denier. How's that for cognitive dissonance, democrats?"
Well said - and thank you for pointing it out - I would love to throw this on EVERY Democrat's (that voted for Harris) face!
Biden’s legacy also includes weaponizing the so called justice department against political opposition. Also censoring opinions that he and his admin doesn’t agree with instead of allowing free speech that would allow both sides of an issue to be heard.
Obama was the sitting president when Russiagate was launched, and I’m not at all sure that he was the first to abuse LE for political ends.
Very good, this is one of the best pieces that you have written or more correctly that I have read! I felt every word of that and it delivers the punch that I long felt festering in my pyche.
Don’t forget the lies he has told like marching with MLK and opposing apartheid in South Africa.
Politicians never lie.... honest....
I thank you for your bravery and honesty . You have voiced the truth as we all know it and for some who don’t want to admit it . I am outraged with some democrats blaming the Muslims who did not vote for Harris. Threats don’t always work . And some were able to see through the jargon. ‘ Deceptive Goodness is more Dangerous ………..’ I believe the young can see through it .
Antonio Gramsci says it beautifully ‘ The Old World is dying , And the New World struggles to be Born - Now is the time for Monsters.
Gaza has taught me to draw my Strength from The All Good, The Compassionate, The All Merciful.
Thank you Caitlin, for this concise, truthful obituary for this horrible man. You could add that he deported more immigrants than Trump did in his first term. One can only hope that Americans will not invent a new (and false) history for Biden as they have done for American history generally (Americans are not alone in doing that).
Good and important pre-obituary. Though, arguably, Biden may already be (brain) dead.
Thanks, Caitlin...you couldn't be more right on.
(Then-Sen. Joe Biden, 2007: "I am a Zionist.")
Viva Palestine!--Hamas and ALL of Palestine! Viva Lebanon and the entire valiant Axis of Resistance opposed to the malevolent designs of Colonial Zionism, the abomination that includes Biden and 95 percent of the entangled US "leadership" in its ranks...as well as, of course, the Colonial/Genocidal platform illegally occupying the once-'holy' land with arrogance and accustomed impunity.
