Sickophants

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

... So why hasn't Biden removed him? Is there a inviolable rule like the claim backing the man trying to destroy the post office?
A lot of commenters are asking the same thing. It's a big failure of the article to not address the question.
It will be hard for me to even consider voting for Biden. I'll probably write-in vote for Nader before I waste another vote on Biden. He's been mostly a failure to do anything to stop trump, or the other trump-like from further damaging our former attempt at democracy.
As a fellow radical I'm also frustrated that there hasn't been more along those lines, including high level prosecutions The biggest push was for a new Voting Rights Act, but Majority Leader Manchin and Majority Whip Sinema prevented that. Otherwise, Joltin' Joe has accomplished a lot, including stopping Trumpettes with a historic midterm performance. Supposedly, with the House now GQP Joe will dedicate these next 2 years to implementation of the legislative wins.

I'm hoping Joe doesn't run, but he's in a bind - withdrawing early gives the Dems the best chance for someone decent to emerge and win, but being a lame duck severely hampers Joe's agenda. I'd also be inclined to vote for a primary opponent. However, I'm with GoCubsGo - if Joe's the nominee and NC is still projected purple, I'll vote for him.
A DeSantis presidency could be the light at the end of the tunnel resulting in a backlash against these assholes.
Ugh, I'm unsatisfied with the backlash against TRE45QN and he did a lot of damage in 4 years. You just want Fascist DerSantis out of Florida. ;)

Of course I don't want DeSantis. I'm just trying to find a silver lining to the inevitability to Joe losing.
My state is no longer purple. We've gone bright red in just the last 4 years, so I'll vote against Joe in the Primary and 3rd party liberal in the General.

Steve Bannon Ran Up Huge Legal Bills and Stiffed His Lawyers

Steve Bannon—the nativist American media personality who’s backed by a Chinese billionaire—hasn’t paid the lawyers who spent years defending him against an onslaught of criminal charges ...
Surprise surprise.
With massive legal bills still outstanding, Bannon is now scrambling to find new attorneys, as he faces a looming trial over the way he scammed the MAGA crowd with a dubious plan to build a privately funded U.S.-Mexico border wall.
Go NY AG Go

Why does the MAGA crowd still worship him? :headscratch: :crazy:
Bannon’s refusal to fully pay his bills has stunned some of his close advisers who’ve stuck around for years.

“I don’t have any reason to believe he doesn’t have money,” one associate said.

After all, Bannon is a former Goldman Sachs investment banker, co-founded the rightwing news website Breitbart, made tens of millions off the iconic sitcom Seinfeld, and hangs out with Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui....
I didn't know that, Wiki elaboration:
Pivot in career into media and investing

... Bannon negotiated a sale of Castle Rock to Turner Broadcasting System, which was owned by Ted Turner at the time. Instead of a full adviser's fee, Bannon & Co. accepted a financial stake in five television shows, including Seinfeld, which was in its third season. Bannon still receives cash residuals each time Seinfeld is aired....
:puke-left: I'll never watch a rerun again. I wonder if Larry David or Jerry Seinfeld ever opined on what Bannon became.

More of an all of the above, but they're MAGA. It's like explaining Klingons. We'll never understand, it just is.

Numbnuts is ecstatic, further proof that George is doing the right thing.

Staying together for the kids or religion or whatever is such a lose lose situation.


Congratulations to Kellyanne Conway on her DIVORCE from her wacko husband, Mr. Kellyanne Conway. Free at last, she has finally gotten rid of the disgusting albatross around her neck. She is a great person, and will now be free to lead the kind of life that she deserves…and it will be a great life without the extremely unattractive loser by her side!

Maybe he needs a fully automatic weapon. He can't seem to hit all the cases of beer from 50 feet.
(Does he have a permit?)

Seems like poor shot Kid Rock overcompensates in reaction to trans. Hmmm.
