I noticed they didn’t say anything about us launching air strikes in Syria.

“Wacky” is a function of numerous factors — including perspective of the site owner, the news media to which he (and you) have access, and the reader's own perspective.

It seems you constantly want to give Biden a pass on major screwups. Like minimum wage increases during a time of unrivaled deficits and unemployment, which Trump left in astoundingly good shape given the circumstances. We are now approaching the end of the pandemic (if the most informed doctors have it right) and unemployment is stubbornly high while government is planning the largest spending spree in history, almost 100% pork.

And we are in the early days of a massive move away from human labor.

It is just stupid. The most wrong headed foolish blunder one can imagine. Teachers in DC to be paid 1500 a week more for not working.

Is any of that what the fuck just happened today? I didn’t see it there.

This is a cognitive dissonance overload. I see ostensibly thoughtful people sucked in by plain old liberal idiocy. If I were there I’d be trying to escape.

I think probably early on they could have done, and considered the 25th amendment. There were some sane, qualified people in the cabinet then, Tillerson, Mattis, Kelly etc. The thing with the 25th is, the Vice President has to start the ball rolling, and at that time, I think we'll end up finding out that Pence wouldn't do it.
