Well…read an article yesterday that seems to me to be a pretty big deal but no one is talking about it…just the other day, the Biden administration put new restrictions on chip sales to China, restricting those for AI and high performance computing and the machinery to make these chips…curbs to the machinery necessary to make logic and memory chips and restrictions on US people supporting the development or manufacture of those chips…and bans exports of American designs to China and and stops them from buying tech…and the reason is the well known tactic that China uses to steal US technology and then use that tech to try to monopolize chip production by undercutting prices of other manufacturers and tryin to put them out of business so you have to go to China…and the folly of depending on China is exactly what happened during the pandemic….shortages of chips and huge negative effects on the US economy. It appears to me that this is all part of insulating the US economy from supply chain problems by not relying on China for chips necessary for damn near everything, starting with the auto industry, and is part of the announcements of 50 billion dollars in chipmaking capacity that has been happening almost daily since Biden took over…this is what happens when you elect an intelligent, experienced person to be president and who surrounds himself with knowledgeable, competent people who can understand global commerce and the dangers that parts of it poses….every day, I’m glad that Biden and his team are in charge…the US is moving forward because of it….

A big difference…
Well…I sure hope the media compares the disaster response from Joe Biden to the idiot trump over the next few days…with the huge hurricane that is coming ashore right now plans have been in place for over a week from the Biden administration and it didn’t matter that Florida is a red state or that DeSantis is an asshole who attacks Biden almost every day, Biden did what a president is supposed to do…take care of all Americans, not just those who voted for him…and he has every department of the government already on the ground there and Biden hasn’t said on thing about the constant quid pro quo’s that trump thrived on…and he hasn’t thrown paper towels at Floridians or tried to steer the relief aid to his unqualified cronies like trump did in Puerto Rico….that is the difference between dems and repubs…we believe that government is there to help the people of the country and that government, when done competently like Biden does it, is really a force for good that can help alleviate suffering of Americans everywhere….just watch and see the repubs try to take credit for Joe’s work just like the have been with all of the bills they have voted against that will fix the roads and bridges in this country…cynical bastards, all of them…..geez…
Boy, the facists are upset today…
Well…after one of the best speeches that Joe Biden has done, calling out the repubs for the fascists they are…the repubs are really, really upset that Joe told the truth of how dangerous and terrible the maga crowd is….and how they are trying to destroy our democracy by violence, voter suppression, and rigging elections…all perfectly fascist activities and they just can’t stand that finally, they are being called out for it…I mean when you have a sitting senator, Lindsey Graham, calling for “blood in the streets” if the idiot trump is indicted you are a fascist plain and simple. I really hope Joe keeps this up but then supports this new pugnaciousness with flooding the airwaves with comparisons between what the dems stand for, and I’ll give you a hint…democracy and the rule of law, and then cut it with January 6th footage of the maga crowd attacking our government to try to overturn an election…oh, and by the way, that’s another fascist tactic that is only supported by the repubs…and I really think that the repubs are so upset today because of the light Joe shined on the cockroaches that the repubs are…keep it up, Joe…
I like this new Joe…
Well…with Joe Biden going on the attack and finally realizing that you can’t compromise with any repub these days, it appears that the US is feeling the same as I am, that they like this new Joe Biden…and that is shown by his approval ratings gaining 7 points in just one month to higher than any president in the past 50 years in his second year of presidency….and I just loved the way he turned Greene’s criticism against student debt relief around and showed how ridiculous she is by highlighting she took a 200K PPP loan during the pandemic that was forgiven and she didn’t have to pay that back….and iced that with dismissing her by not even saying her name…pretty damn good, Joe….now let’s keep this winning going right into the mid terms and maybe, just maybe we will still control all of the government in November and can get a lot more things done…even though you’ve already done more in the first two years than any president in history…and not tax cuts for the rich but legislation that helps the rest of us…and that is something to applaud…Go Joe….
The gloves come off…
Well..this is pretty funny…as you know, yesterday I highlighted the hypocrisy of the repubs who are bitching about student loan forgiveness when most of them got loans forgiven from the PPP act of a hell of a lot more money than is being forgiven those with student loans…and now the WH is taking the gloves off and doing the same thing I did, and guess what? All of the repub bleaters who were all over the media yesterday have gone silent after they were personally called out for their hypocrisy…and now that we see all of these grifters who took out loans, there is a call for them to be investigated for fraud since the PPP money was supposed to go for continuing the paychecks of employees during the pandemic and not spent on cars, boats, and other expenses that these repubs had…and that they spent the money on that they didn’t pay back. So it looks like these morons should have kept their mouths shut instead of trying to score cheap political points against Biden…but the one thing we know is that none of them are very bright…and some of them are going to pay for it…good!
Any other president…
Well…with the astonishing jobs numbers that came out today, any other president would be carried around on people’s shoulders with parades thrown in his honor…but with Biden? Nothing…and his approval ratings are still in the tank…so what’s the deal? Look, the economy was predicted to add about 25k jobs with the fed trying to slow down the economy to tame inflation but employers added 528K and the unemployment rate is down to 3.5%…so where’s the recession? Jobs should be dropping if we are in a recession as employers look out a ways and see the slowdown…and it still may happen in a few months but not now. It appears that another huge bill is going to pass, too, to go along with infrastructure, gun control, and all of the others that Biden has gotten done and yet no one gives him any credit for it…again, if any other president had gotten all of this done in his first two years…including getting the #1 of al queada just this week, his numbers would be in the 70′s and I still think part of it is the media still both siding everything and the lack of the dems getting the message out…most people still don’t think Biden has gotten anything done and that has to change…and we only have 3 months to do it before the mid terms…got on it dems…geez…
An unequal fight….
Well…I’ve really tried to figure out why Joe Biden’s approval ratings are down so far and I think I can distill it down to a few things…first, he needs to fight with the repubs more and directly attack the obstructionism, lies, and bullshit that comes out of the entire right wing machine….the people are behind our ideas and he needs to make sure everyone knows there is only one reason why we are heading in the wrong direction…and that is the repubs…they have blocked all of the popular proposals on abortion, gun control, and gas prices and he needs to hammer that home every time he talks to anyone…it needs to be flooded to the media so they have no choice but to print it…and the second thing is to stop the helplessness….stop whining about not being able to get anything done because of the repubs…figure out a way to get things done…use executive orders and other administrative parts of the government to give the people what they want…I know that looks like a contradiction but he needs to hit them hard and then preach about what is getting done…and contrast, contrast, contrast…break the media habit of both siderism and make sure voters know there is a difference…that the repubs will make your life worse if you vote for them…and pound that all damn day…get out there and fight, Joe….the people like it when you do….
Nice to have a normal president…
Well…after watching a bit of the white house correspondent’s dinner and Joe Biden’s performance, the thought came into my head that is just damn nice to have a normal human being as president…and his writers had a quite a few funny zingers that he delivered perfectly…and some of them were aimed at fox news and the recent revelations that hannity was essentially working for trump during the 2020 election…and this is in direct contrast to the thin skinned idiot trump who skipped these dinners since he just has no sense of humor and can’t take even the mild ribbing that comes with it…could you imagine idiot boy even trying to deliver any joke that was not a mean spirited attack on his “enemies”? Nope, me neither…but the best part of the night was the closing where Trevor Noah laid a two by four upside the head of the reporters and news execs for their bullshit bothsiderism and for not doing their jobs of protecting this country from people like trump…and that last few minutes should be shown in every damn newsroom and to every reporter and media exec who are driving the dereliction of their duty….maybe some of it will sink in and we will have some real reporting for a change…we can hope anyway…geez…
I still don’t get it….
Well…with the latest great jobs report that was released today where it was reported that almost 700K jobs were added in Feb and the unemployment rate dropped to 3.8%, I still don’t understand the polls that show that almost 70% of the country thinks Biden is doing a bad job on employment. I mean, what the hell else does he have to do? Go door to door asking people if they need a job? I still don’t get how there is such a big disconnect between reality and perception…is it a feeling or are there reports saying he is doing a crappy job? I know that it is a daily feature of fox news that Biden is a failure at everything, but that is only watched by about 30% of the country so what is causing this disconnect when more people are working than ever before and pay is up almost across the board? I still think it is the bias in the media that is doing most of it…can you imagine if the idiot trump was still in office? The NYT and Washington Post would have 4 inch screaming headlines every damn day how much of a genius the moron was…but with Biden? Nothing, not a damn thing that connects his efforts to the Biden jobs boom…and I am getting tired of it…this is a country in the midst of a shared delusion that nothing good is happening…and I don’t know how to fix that…geez…
Forgot to talk about the SOTU…
Well…I have been digesting the SOTU that Biden gave Tuesday night and I was not surprised at all…the right wing propaganda that has been pushing the lie that Joe is too old and senile to even walk was exploded as he delivered a Joe speech…lots of truth and empathy and guess what you didn’t see…yep, attacking his “enemies” and bragging that he was able to put his shoes on that morning that you got from TFG…and that was a refreshing thing to hear…policy that will help the country and getting his agenda out on the floor so he can point to it as he succeeds getting some of it passed…now, I’m enough or a realist to know that the repub attacks and obstructionism will continue, but to paint Joe with being naive is just wrong, he still wants to try to find some reasonable people on the other side of the isle but I know he is experienced enough to know that is probably not going to happen…but being a good guy, he has to try…overall, I would rate it a great speech but that is not a surprise anymore…Joe has shown that he is up to it and his passion for what he does always comes through…good job….
