Some reduce the 2024 campaign to a contest between two old men, but it's a choice of two slates of federal appointees who'll impact your life in a million ways.
Biden has staffed executive agencies with excellent choices who are doing good work. Trump will empower an army of Stephen Millers.
The current Commissioner of Social Security is great and is focused on doing his very best to implement as many positive regulatory changes as he can between now and January. Would be great if he could have years more to do work after that.
Department of Ed too. Every bit of student loan forgiveness that's happened is because Carson either 1) undid DeVos policy of refusing all forgiveness applications or 2) reinterpreted existing law to benefit borrowers
Carcetti has made some verbal gaffs and his RTO policy is poorly planned and unpopular with many staffers. This admin can do better.
The alternative will assuredly be worse
The policies of the fictional mayor of Baltimore are unpopular with staffers? Shouldn't we be putting the blame for any verbal gaffes he's made on the writers of The Wire?
Last Week Tonight touched on this Sunday and how if Trump wins they'll circumvent the protection civil servants have for their jobs and replace anyone who doesn't bend the knee. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX8x...
And all of them will regret it, when the new admin cancels ACA, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, & other part of the safety net, including Unemployment Insurance!
But once they capture power, it’ll be too late to do anything about it!
Good luck! 👎
I’m not sure why people don’t understand this, including people who are concerned about executive authority. Maybe you don’t like the guy personally, but what is the quality of his advisers and selections? Trump’s first term was an illustration of Hayek’s “why the worst get on top”
Exactly. Federal district judge Kacsmaryk in TX is doing the dirty work for the Federalist Society. Cannon in FL blatantly asking for a reason to dismiss the documents case. Both TFG appointees.Federal judges matter. Ideological purists own this mess as much as MAGA idiots
One can agree that genocide is awful and unacceptable and still agree that trump is the worse choice
Agree to change the things you can’t accept, rather than accepting the things you cannot change
Hard to argue with someone who doesn’t read responses…
CHANGE THE THINGS YOU CANNOT ACCEPT
Call your elected officials every day and demand that they don’t make arms deals with Israel
You don't have to accept Biden's war policy to realize that he's the only acceptable choice this Nov. If you don't get that, you have a sickening level of privilege.
We're getting New Deal-era pro-union trustbusting under Biden that Bernie supporters like me have been wanting for decades.
lol "people who don't support genocide have a sickening level of privilege" this is close to other really good tries like "forming a union with your coworkers is a form of privilege"
Then why is your immediate choice to help the side who want to make it worse? Do you really not believe that Trump would make it worse? Trump's peace plan was literally to give Palestine nothing, take away most of their rights, and give Israel land and more control.
We don’t accept Genocide; don’t assign labels
The USA has long refused to acknowledge genocide - in Rwanda and everywhere else; when you acknowledge it, you must do something about it
one president will let you protest the war. the other will gleefully call on every redneck dumb fuck to run you over in the street while you do. have fun with that.
My understanding of the situation with the genocide and tthe politics in America is that Trump is not likely to make any changes to the situation at all.
im trying to change these things by directly threatening not to vote for Joe Biden unless he steps down and the Dems put forward an anti-genocide candidate
the implied point is that people care more about genocide than about superior bureaucrats, and they should. "I'm tired of them bringing it up" is ridiculous
