Some of Donald Trump’s allies are assembling proposals to curtail the Justice Department’s independence and turn the nation’s top law enforcement body into an attack dog for conservative causes, nine people involved in the effort told Reuters.

Ahh… another, “You better vote for Genocide Joe. If you don’t, Genocide Donald is gonna eat ya!” article.
First: flood the Justice Department with stalwart conservatives unlikely to say “no” to controversial orders from the White House. Second: restructure the department so key decisions are concentrated in the hands of administration loyalists rather than career bureaucrats.
So basically do what any President already does.
Overhauling the Justice Department would allow the Trump administration to pursue conservative policy initiatives such as dismantling hiring programs meant to boost diversity in the workplace and ending federal oversight of police departments accused of racist practices.
So… the only change would be that the employee base would disappear if they were standing in front of a white wall. Its not like there’s much the DoJ seems to be able to do to keep the police in check with their “oversight”.
The general counsel provides legal advice to FBI employees regarding ongoing probes and other matters. Closing it would force the bureau to receive legal guidance from people closer to Trump’s attorney general in the chain-of-command and limit the FBI’s ability to conduct investigations without close political oversight, according to several Trump supporters and legal professionals with knowledge of the department’s workings.
Or the FBI agents will just decide they don’t have to ask anybody permission and act freely.
So when the republican christofascist dictatorship comes, at least you will have a clean conscience, knowing you didn’t vote for preserving satus quo, shitty as it may be. Good for you!
I hope, if you can’t find it in yourself to put a ballot in the urn for the lesser evil, that you can put a bullet in the head of the greater.
The christofascist dictatorship is here, you’re the one enabling it by describing it as “status quo”.
Name one thing Biden meaningfully did to oppose any of trumps shitty policies. Why would it be any different next time around.
Name one thing he did that was worse than what the republicans have done? Voting for Biden this fall doesn’t means you have to agree with him. You simply have to agree that having Trump win would be worse. This is like the trolley problem - you’re fucked either way but you can decide how fucked you prefer being.
Biden ended pandemic protections while there’s still a pandemic.
Biden gave more money to police than trump.
Biden has gotten us involved in a genocide and a proxy war, and is handling them both just about as poorly as you can.
Biden is building more border wall than trump, and the kids are still in cages.
Biden is cracking down on protests.
Everything costs.more due to bad economic policy and his mishandling of the pandemic when he got.elected.
I could.go on, but I’m sure this will all be dismissed, and I will be assured Biden is just a smol bean who can’t do anything, but here’s a list of all the reasons he’s somehow the most effective president…
Or let me guess. Trump is worse
Everything costs.more due to bad economic policy and his mishandling of the pandemic when he got.elected
I won’t disagree with anything as it obviously happened other than this. The economic downturn was much more complicated than just Biden. The world is suffering in a very similar way.
The main reason people hate Biden is because people like you keep insisting how great he is, and then when people list their very real complaints you have annexcuse for FUCKING EVERYTHING.
And it happened last time too.
Biden puts out campaign adds showing a signed $2000 check and runs on it as a stimulus check, gets elected, sends everybody $1400 and then lectures everybody who correctly says “Hey what the fuck” by telling them he never said that, you’re an idiot if you thought he did, and you should be really grateful to him.
Take that exact approach, lying, lecturing, and co descending and apply it to literally every issue.
That’s why hisnpoll numbers are shot, nobody believes a word he says because they’re they’re exact same fuxking lies he told 4 years ago, we voted for him, nothing got better and a lot of stuff got worse and the people advocating for him still simultaneously lecture you for saying he isn’t doing anything and have a long winded excuse for why he can’t do anything.
The reason people hate Biden is because I recognize nuance is required to understand complex things like the economy? How does that even make sense?
Hate him for the things you listed. The reason people hate people like you is because you make things personal when there’s no reason to or any logic behind it.
I didn’t make an excuse for everything I barely even excused one thing let alone espoused how “great” he is, because he isn’t.
