Just about to post this… 
What if you freed people and no one left?
As far as bold acts of mass clemency go, it won’t lead to many people getting out of prison. In fact, it will lead to none. According to the White House and a report this week from the U.S. Sentencing Commission (USSC) there is no one currently in federal custody for simple possession of marijuana.
Tell me they didn’t know this.
Recession is the goal anyways. US is trying to significantly shut down consumer demand on Chinese made goods. US is also convincing Allies to do the same. Economic warfare from all angles against China. This is a retaliation for China’s artificial supply and labor shortages wreaking havoc on global supply chains and driving up prices as well as continuing manufacturing interruptions due to Zero Covid policy —- of which Zero Covid policy is Chinas retaliation for the Trade War/Tariffs.
It’s a game of limbo at this point to see who will break first under their own artificial strain.
…and, “oopsies, sorry about your pensions. We played with your money and the house won. Blame China!”.
Well the Allies are going to need to manifest all the psychological incentive they can get in order to get the population to prepare for (via draft) and deter a war, or worst case fight a war on 2 fronts. Take peoples money away and they will get riled up to fight, especially if they think it’s China’s fault.
Guess they ain’t black.
And this, the new horse shit. Democracy is not at all under threat. It just needs some Prozac.
This election isn’t about inflation or abortion. It’s about whether democracy can survive
This
ain’t saving shit.
Just submitted the application for student loan forgiveness. Super easy application.
Thanks Biden!
I trust these people with power less than Trump at this point.
Uh oh, you said its name.
Don’t forget to thank the American taxpayer…
Is this OK if you’re NOT Joe Biden’s kin?

Last Friday, October 14, 2022, Drew Willison, Chief of Staff for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) from 2015-17 and US Senate Sergeant-at-Arms from 2014-15, registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) to disclose his lobbying for Hikvision USA:
In the letter, Willison stated he would establish a “quiet, targeted approach to the [Biden] Administration” where he would contact career US officials at the Treasury, Commerce, and State departments rather than political appointees who he considers to be “far more scared on China issues”:
“Political appointees” are US officials who do not work their way up from within the system (“career” officials) but those who are appointed/handpicked by new presidential administrations. This means Willison considers political appointees harder to influence, presumably as they are more concerned about Biden being perceived as soft on China.
In March 2022, IPVM estimated that Hikvision had spent $17 million since 2018 on lobbying fees, double that of Huawei and much more than corporations with far larger revenue such as Samsung and Motorola.
The initial capital injection to my business was also from the stimulus checks 
Thanks Trump and Biden!
Better that than the crypt-hole-currencies like everyone else?
Uhm no, honey. Sit back down.
Nope. Not even close, Joe Joe.
tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies…
The new hawks.
In a Newsweek article this week titled, American Troops Prepared to Engage in War with Russia, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, who was aboard the aircraft carrier, said the operation in the Adriatic “demonstrates our ability to rapidly reinforce our allies and project power across the alliance.” Since last February, the United States deployed thousands of troops to Europe, bringing the total [number to 100,000](FACT SHEET - U.S. Defense Contributions to Europe > U.S. Department of Defense > Release), many of which have been forward deployed to Eastern European NATO states.
What no one in Washington or Brussels has bothered to explain to the American people, however, is: why?
What is the threat to American national security that would necessitate the deployment of 100,000 U.S. troops, forward-deploy a combat division that hasn’t been in Europe since World War II, and send aircraft carrier battle groups up to the Ukraine border, all of which are expressly and publicly intended to prepare for war with Russia?
Thus far, the non-thinking answer has been to constantly repeat that Russia launched “an unprovoked” war against Ukraine, with the implication being, that if not checked now, Putin may soon launch further attacks into eastern Europe and conquer more territory. So many of America’s current leaders were raised in the heart of the Cold War and learned from their youth to fear and even hate the Russian-dominated USSR. But Putin’s Russia of today is not a fraction of the genuine combat power once wielded by the Kremlin.
It is ironic that many experts claim Russia is a serious threat to attack NATO territory, while others claim the Russian military will not be able to defeat even Ukraine. It can’t simultaneously be that Russia is a regional menace that is a threat to roll through NATO countries, yet also so weak that Ukraine is going to defeat them. The reality is evident for anyone willing to see it: the Russian military did not have the capacity to successfully capture even neighboring NATO states (prior to this war, it was widely assumed NATO would be powerless to prevent a Russian victory over the Baltics) and owing to the tremendous equipment losses over the past eight months, it would take decades of time to rebuild even to their pre-war level.
