Yeah, this poo poo is what she’s been pulling all along. Good lead up questions by Harris, though. Puts it in perspective how ridiculous her answers have been. Barrett is legit terrifying. In comparison to Judge Beer, she’s cool, calm, collected, and totally non-committal on any of the most concerning issues. She’ll get confirmed, and then she gets to make her Gilead-level opinions heard on the Supreme Court for decades.

Youth Decay posted:She really needs to be pressed harder to give yes/no answers here. If they're going to ram her through anyway we at least need to get her whackadoo opinions on the record before she goes into SCOTUS judge hiding. I was watching while eating lunch a little earlier and Blumenthal was hammering that exact point. He straight up asked her for a yes or no answer a few times and she just rephrased her previous non-committal answers. Not much you can do about that but call her out on it and move on, since they’ve got limited time.

Arkage posted:While the NYPost story about Hunter stuff is unconfirmed, it does seems pretty drat likely that the info is from his harddrive. I mean there was literally a video of him smoking crack and having sex, along with a bunch of selfies. Can't really fake that stuff. Here’s why nobody other than the NY Post and Maggie Haberman (which, you know, says a lot) are boosting the story: Nobody cares if it’s real. There’s nothing really incriminating there, and the vast majority of folks in this country know at least one person who has dealt with addiction in one form or another.

Sir Lemming posted:The problem with Trump trying to throw Joe Biden off his game is that as soon as Biden stutters or has a moment of hesitation, Trump will start yelling stuff again before the moment can really sink in and result in anything. He has no clue how to play this. I don’t know if it’s as much about not having any clue as it is not having any ability to control his internal monologue. The guy can barely control himself during friendly interviews, and when he somehow manages to do so, his body language and facial expressions just make him look unhinged.

Didn’t the Trump Administration take a bunch of artwork from an embassy recently? Edit: Ambassador to France’s residence. quote:Now, yet another tidbit has emerged about the trip: Instead of visiting the grave site, Trump spent the day admiring and summarily snatching art from the ambassador’s home, the Hôtel de Pontalba, loading up Air Force One with works he wanted to put on display at the White House.

Antifa Turkeesian posted:Are presidents typically responsible for their own beds and mattresses, or do they at least get new ones installed before their first night in office? Looks like they’re allotted $100k for general spending (at least as of 2009). I would imagine mattresses would fall in that category. Let’s not forget toilet seats. Every time I’ve moved into a new rental, those get switched out first thing. quote:At a time when people are having trouble holding on to their houses, Barack and Michelle Obama have sensibly decided not to use taxpayers’ money to renovate theirs. New presidents are allotted $100,000 to overhaul the White House residence and the Oval Office, and the Obamas hired Hollywood decorator Michael S. Smith (known, per his site, for mixing “Old World classicism with very contemporary settings”).

Space Gopher posted:The funny part was that they were replicas of art in the Smithsonian. One of the perks of being president is that you can decorate the White House with anything in the Smithsonian. So, the originals were a phone call away, but Trump chose to take the cheap copies as some kind of bullshit power move instead. It’s pretty on-brand for Donald, honestly. Donald Trump’s Fake Renoir: The Untold Story quote:Years ago, while reporting a book about a real-estate developer and reality-TV star named Donald Trump, Tim O’Brien accompanied his subject on a private jet ride to Los Angeles. The plane, as you can imagine, was overly ornate; hanging on one wall, for instance, was a painting of two young girls—one in an orange hat, the other wearing a floral bonnet—in the impressionistic style of Renoir.

I realize doom-posting about 2022 and 2024 is perfectly rational, but I think one scenario that deserves consideration is whether or not Republicans can turn out first time or highly motivated voters at the same rate as Donald. There are arguments for a more competent fascist having greater success, but the celebrity factor Donald has had is going to be difficult to replicate. I don’t know if there’s anyone in the Republican field right now that has that kind of appeal. Crenshaw or Cotton don’t exude that kind of anti-charisma.

Jaxyon posted:They will pay Trump piles of money to campaign for them until he dies. Stickman posted:You don't think Trump will run in 2024? I don’t think it’s likely. Backing a loser only gets you so far. Just using recent examples, Bush (after Clinton beat him) and Son of Bush (after McCain’s defeat) were both relegated to the back of the bus. The right-wing media will probably transition to resistance mode pretty quickly, like they were with Obama, should Biden come out ahead this week. Plus, Donald’s gonna be older, and with the way he’s getting more and more unhinged, I don’t think he’s gonna be Nazi-presentable in three years. The Republicans may try and recreate that piss-wizard magic they had in Donald, but I don’t see it happening as a sure thing.

Astro7x posted:I don't know how you can rile up the democratic base in the same way that the republicans get riled up. Republicans are just so susceptible to all the bullshit facebook memes and fake news that the right puts out to scare them into voting. I don’t pretend to know the answer here, but I do have reason to think some of Donald’s cult are probably gonna go back to just not voting or whatever the gently caress they were doing before if (Inshallah) he loses. Those folks also will probably buy into his bullshit about everything being rigged against him and may just decide “eh, gently caress it, my vote’s not gonna matter if SOROS!! is just gonna steal it anyway.”

Part of her bargain to be speaker in 2018 was that she’d step down by 2022. If she runs for speaker in 2020, she’s still have the opportunity to step down in that timeline.

I think Jeffries would be a solid replacement honestly, even though he's bought and paid for. Absolutely, it’s been a shitshow, just pointing out those two statements aren’t contradictory. Jeffries probably makes the most sense, but I’m not really sure how much better he is than Pelosi. Here’s hoping it’s AOC or Pressley or Omar in a cycle or two.

Wicked Them Beats posted:My understanding is that the Agency Review Teams and the Biden Transition Team are separate entities (the former is overseen by the latter). You won't find Ted Kaufman's name on the ART list either but he's in charge of the whole thing. Apologies, I wasn’t doubting the story itself, the AP article just seems like it’s regurgitating older news. One example here (The Hill, I know, but it’s not the only one from back in September). quote:Immigration advocates are livid over the Biden transition team's addition of Cecilia Muñoz, a former Obama administration official who was the public face of that administration's immigration policy. So, to close my train of thought, since I didn’t see Muñoz on the team page, it was possible they’re not actually including her in the actual transition, now that Biden’s president-elect. I guess it would be nice to get a confirmation from the campaign itself.

I don't know if that's a crack in the stonewalling of Biden on transition , but it seems like it is to me. I think Trump is going to drag this out one more week possibly before conceding , but I also acknowledge that its a long shot for him to ever concede. This is a good sign though that Biden is receiving this briefing. Trump & Co are still stonewalling. Those national security experts aren’t government officials. quote:WASHINGTON — President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris are set to receive a national security briefing Tuesday, though it won't be done by government officials because the Trump administration still hasn't formally approved the transition.
