I guess when you make excuses like that you can justify any sort of genocide you want... we can literally just flatten all the hospitals (most of which they already did). Guess what, when your the good guys you are expected to play by different rules, when you dont, you arent the good guys.

If it isn’t available via #RSS in any “regular” podcasting app, it isn’t a Podcast, it’s an audio recording.
YouTube podcast? Nope. Spotify podcast? Not a thing.
I have some bad news for you, the virus will just keep going forever no matter what policies we make.
Do you still keep scented flowers in you pocket to word off the black death? A few people still die from it every year, it has been with us since 1346.Small pox is the only virus ever to have been eradicated.

find interesting to note that after 20 years of "west exporting democracy" to Afghanistan, now the issue seems like "west importing talebanate state models" into the us and Israel ...
bibi and 45 a l' orange should tell us something about it ...
The difference between birtherism and Biden's age is that his age is mostly a concern to Left leaning independents and democrats. MAGA folks wouldn't vote for Biden no matter his age. Democrats and independents never bought into the birth certificate crap, but 73% of Democrats think Biden is too old to serve second term.

@Wileymiller @GottaLaff @bufalo1973 @DrGeraintLLannfrancheta
Set aside Biden for a moment.
What should have happened with Feinstein?
What are we doing to make sure Feinstein doesn't happen again?
This is an absolutely valid conversation to be having, and the party that had a sitting senator who needed babysitting to make sure she didn't wander around and say god knows what... definitely has some explaining to do, which they are refusing to do.
This is not a nothingburger.
@GottaLaff @bufalo1973@xarxa.cloud @DrGeraintLLannfrancheta most on-the-nose thing Stewart said was in reference to all Bidens close advisors saying how sharp he is. "Is there film?" Thus hole thing goes away if Biden just gets in front of the camera and acts as sharp as everyone sais he is.
@OkayKay@ottawa.place @Lana If Biden makes it to January 6, 2025 and gets confirmed as the winner of the 2024 election, then I don't care if if lives a day longer. In fact I think it would be great if Harris would bring some of the fire she had in the Senate to the White House. However, if he dies before the election is certified it is a near certainty that Trump will be sworn in on Jan 20 and that is what scares the be-jesus out of me.
Correct Answer
@brokenix the answer is in the first line of the documentation, "Pointful version of Language.Haskell.Meta.QQ.Idiom."
Jon Stewart sums up every though and feeling I have about the upcoming election: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpBPm0b9deQ
@danwentzel if Biden makes it to Jan 6, 2025, I will shut up about his age. Until then, if he has a health emergency or the worst happens, we likely end up not with a black woman but an orange shit gibbon, and there might not be another election after that.

Is it just me or has the level of engagement gone down on #Mastodon? Not hugely, but noticeable.
Looking like another nail in the light duty (i.e. passenger cars) #FCEV market. Shell is pulling out. https://insideevs.com/news/708156/shell-closes-california-hydrogen-stations/
@iuculano I I were Biden, I would make sure to be on TV doing interviews about the economic successes of the Inflation Reduction Act, and stable Foreign Policy virtually every day for the next 2 weeks. This is an easy win. All he has to do is show up and talk about what he's accomplished. Maybe jab at the GOP for the border thing a little. Basically look and sound coherent in public. Easy right?
I bet in reality the White House drops the ball again and lets this story keep spiraling out of control and we don't see or here from the president outside of carefully scripted events until the convention.
@KimPerales I agree with the former Obama adviser who wrote that Biden needs to get out in front of this. He should be calling up every sympathetic journalist he knows and offering interviews. The president should be talking candidly to the the American people about what he has done and what he will do if reelected, and in this moment he needs to be doing it live and unscripted.

What a way to start the year!

@DopeGhoti And if my party was the Republican Party? Is your advice to me the same?
