President Joe Biden - Kamala Harris Administration

[hog88]

Yeah, something tells me the DOE was not involved in any discussions about the strain on the electrical grid that comes from all these electric vehicles.

They were probably consulted but of course they would never disagree with the people running the WH.

 

[KB5252]

It's not really cleaner.

It has the potential to be, but there is a lot that needs to be improved upon for that to be true. It doesn't make sense at this time, I won't argue that.

 

[KB5252]

it's not cleaner when you consider the production of the batteries, minerals required for production, disposal of batteries that are expired, and that the electricity that is required to charge these things is mostly produced by coal

And those are the other issues I stated that need worked out. It doesn't make sense at this time.

 

[GroverCleveland]

Biden really only ever had one expectation, and that was to beat Trump. He passed that one with an A+.

So a better analogy would be that Biden executed the squeeze bunt that scored the winning run.

No, Luther, it is not. While I agree with you is he was nominated to beat Trump because none of the other numskulls running were expected to be able to do so; it was felt Biden could win simply because he did not carry the baggage the others did. Biden did not win because of skill, smarts or any other desirable trait: he won because he was relatively inoffensive and not Trump. Again, he acts like he hit a triple when the other side played like defense like the Keystone Kops.

Biden has no idea what a squeeze bunt is. At this point, the odds may not be in his favor to give a coherent explanation of baseball.

Frankly, not sure it would matter. The inmates are in charge of the asylum and there is not one iota of rational thought in this administration. They make up whatever fantasy tale suits them.

Biden nominated an “Environmental Law Expert” to run the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The NHTSA’s stated goal is to reduce accidents on the nation’s highways.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Oh no, not the "American hating communist" tag. Whatever could you be reflecting?

Nice try. But you fail.

Sure Grover, it is. Biden simply did what he was asked to do; granted, what he was asked to do was of critical importance.

‘Complete Transformation’: New Biden Rule Would Force Automakers to Ditch Gas, Sell Electric Vehicles

"The rule would also prompt layoffs for autoworkers in states such as Michigan and Ohio, experts say, because electric cars take considerably fewer workers to build than gas-powered cars."

"We've dealt with the loss of jobs before through technology," United Auto Workers leader Mike DePaoli told the Times, "but when you talk about the speed of this, it's hard to fathom that we won't lose jobs."

Job Killer Joe.

The first question is where is congress, and the second is who will bring this issue to the Supreme Court? The last time I looked we aren't a dictatorship, and the EPA is a bunch of nameless and unelected bureaucrats who do answer to the president. However, if one president can't decide to put up a border fence then how can another basically legislate life as we know it out of existence. Time these idiots were mulched and used as fertilizer. This kind of decision at the least should fall on congress - it's not an executive decision and not one to be made by unelected partisans.

 

[GroverCleveland]

Sure Grover, it is. Biden simply did what he was asked to do; granted, what he was asked to do was of critical importance.

My first thought was ”Dang, Luther doesn’t even get baseball analogies.” Then I remembered he also believes it possible for men to have babies. Silly me.

See, I don’t get that.. we give aid to Islamic countries and many do not let women vote, drive, testify in court, drink alcohol, own property, go to school, etc.. (in our eyes probably serious women’s rights violations)…but we don’t care about that …girls in Afghanistan can no longer even go to school.. but hey, everyone must cut dingdongs off…We really need to keep out of other countries’ business though.. either give them the aid or don’t, (I think we give too much anyway)..blatant manipulation isn’t cute and probably very dangerous.. as sensitive and uncomfortable as this gender reassignment stuff is here, I guarantee you it is a hundred fold more problematic abroad (except maybe some Asian countries where that’s always been the culture, and have zero Judeo-Christian or Islamic roots)

I'm constantly amazed that we view Islamic states as anything other than religious dictatorships complete with the attendant human rights violations. One might claim women's rights as something that a religion can impose; I don't see it that way. If a woman can't be a minister, priest, hold any (every) church office, or is treated in any way different from men, that is discriminatory. As long as there are no requirements to belong to such religion, then perhaps you can choose to ignore the discrimination; I personally don't. When the state is run by a religion or the state adopts a religion's requirements as mandatory for all inhabitants, then religious discrimination cannot be ignored; and that country is then guilty of human rights violations. To argue any other way makes no sense. Such states don't become enemies, but they should receive no support or official recognition from us.

 

[AM64]

You sound like Chicken Little. Just because you continually scream that the sky is falling, doesn't really make it so.
Biden is better than Trump. (period) Had Trump won re-election, things would be far worse.
You can believe that is not true while I can just as easily believe that it is.
You and your chosen sources can continue to portray things in the worst possible way, but I will continue to celebrate that Trump is not POTUS and be grateful that things are as good as they are.

If we could trust that this reign of stupidity will be replaced by one that would remove all things biden and obama, there might be some light at the end of the tunnel providing the fools haven't collapsed the tunnel before somebody can begin to undo the damage.

 

[dovervolz]

I get the need/want to transition to electric but the timing is terrible. We have neither the infrastructure, nor the self sufficiency or access to materials needed for this transition without being completely dependant on China, which we have just entered into full blown cold war with.

It's either incompetence or intentional.

That's what this bast### wants. For the US to be dependant on china. Since he is owned by China, he thinks everyone in the US should be too.

 

[AM64]

There is Trump bad, then their is Xiden bad. We don't know who's running the country. We didn't under Trump because the deep state were secretly undermining him. This entire current administration is corrupt, and devoid of character beyond measure. This country is worse in race relations than two years ago, leftists are doing copy cat mass murder suicide, the foreign policy is a disaster.

It doesn't matter though as long as you're getting tax dollars as salary, and when you take a jog your neighborhood looks normal as it always has.

The inmates are running the asylum in DC. Trump was like the substitute teacher who came in and tried to get the place under control after the full time teachers let it run wild; one facing thousands (probably in excess of a million overall) is never going to fix the mess. Biden is simply another crazed inmate in the DC looney bin, and it's dem party time - no sanity - no control.

The thing that irritates me the most about the Left is that they always see themselves as the savior of whatever group is most oppressed at the moment, (in their infinite wisdom)..and Palestine has always been one of the darlings for some unfathomable reason.. things are rarely very simple like that, and it’s almost like a child-like way of looking at things.. for example, you can be poor, or black, or trans or whatever and be evil at the same time lol.. In a nutshell, being oppressed does not necessarily make one virtuous

That is such a ridiculous characterization of Trump. Come on, let's at least be honest about him. He hired them all and made them blush with his spending habits

You bring up a good point. Why liberals give so much slack to Palestine. Did it occur to them what the Palestinians think of women, gays and trans folks...not to mention things like voting and personal freedoms?

Probably wishful thinking, so much damage has been done. At best we will be playing second fiddle to China going forward.

Trump hired several people who were unfit for the job ... but not as many as biden. Face it though, the political appointees who come in with an administration are infinitesimal when compared to the swamp ... and largely blots to be ignored by the swamp. Forget the appointed director; the decisions start with the Deputy Director who actually runs things; the former is the guy who is tolerated until the next one comes along; the "deputy" is the guy who knows were bodies are buried and how to make things work ... if and when he chooses. You can't just fire bureaucrats, and they aren't easily exterminated either.

Both of them hired people for jobs that shouldn’t be jobs. Eliminate some of these Departments and we can just cut out worrying about them hiring morons.

He hired lobbyists that wanted in the swamp. He didn't bust it up he just ruined their careers.

Biden isn't the bar. Comparing him only to Biden is useless. Trump made no real effort to change anything and honestly did things that most in the gop usually claim to be against. We must do better than trump or Biden is this country is ever to recover

We need to get rid of over at least half of the federal bureaucracies/agencies. I'd start with the EPA and move down the line with worthless agencies like the DHS, DOE, DEA, BATF and many more that exist that fly under the radar. Our government is sucking up more money than we can produce.

 

[AM64]

I wouldn't fault Biden here, the western states water demand vs the supply isn't sustainable........ And it's been known for at least a decade.

You'd think by now that people would have some clue that population depends on resources ... that at some point growth has to be limited/controlled. CA has had decades to recognize their resource problem. Maybe instead of stealing water from other states they should have been turning either to desalinization or limiting growth. As I recall, left coast states instead chose to do things like destroy dams holding fresh water, so fish could roam free.
