I’m glad Biden addressed the nation last night (proof of life and all) but his message amounted to: I will not use the vast power the court just gave me, but Trump will. Good for contrast, horrible in conceding the premise that there are two sets of rules.

The best thing about Biden is his willingness to change his mind. I think in the coming weeks and months, his advisors will start to realize that the current situation requires a lot more gloves off. That will require a lot of pressure. That should be a goal.

"in the weeks and months"? "Doc, you're gonna get shot on Monday!"

Not sure what you're saying. I've stayed away from electoral politics my whole life. I'm allergic to the people who pursue it. That said, sometimes they're persuadable and can move important things. I'm a pipsqueak. Prez has enormous power, I'd like him to do stuff. I think it's worth trying. 🤷🏼

Ahh just me doing a weird back to the future iii reference because if it takes them months to respond to this the election is going to be upon us and they'll probably have done even more horrible things in the meantime. Drastic action is needed fast.

I totally agree with you! It doesn't seem like he/his staff will come around tomorrow. It's a bad and unnecessary state of events. He could turn this around if he uses his power appropriately. I don't think there is a worse thing they could do than what just happened. Not in Congress.

Release anything and everything about Trump that he can release within his executive power remit, starting with releasing Trump’s tax returns and forcing the IRS to complete an audit of his tax returns in the next 60 days.

Anything that hasn’t been released that connects Trump to Russia, both covert and overt

biden could declare an emergency involving the breach of nuclear secrets by a former president and freeze trump's assets, and since trump isn't afraid of being prosecuted anymore he'd probably just drop out of the race
