Is it too late to charge Dr. Jill with elder abuse?

 

I don't suppose there's anything that can be done legally about the
media lies about Biden being sharp as a tack but that probably doesn't
matter. We know now that they are shameless liars and their credibility
has suffered a well-earned decline. They are surely aware of that as
their ratings/sales fall ever further.

 

I don't see much of an effort to clean up their acts either: they still
seem determined to gaslight the public with yet more of the same
hysteria that they greeted every word and action uttered by Trump and
his people in his first term. They only calm down when a Democrat is in
the White House and they can go into full-time fluffer mode.

 

It's fine though. They are destroying themselves so here's hoping
they're completely irrelevant in the near future.

 
You might have noticed that America works poorly with two irrelevant
national political parties.
 
You're not going to learn anything about the book from those talking
heads. They're the target of the book. I listened to radio interviews
with the authors. It was quite disturbing. David Plouffe spoke on record;
no one else did. Most recently, he managed Kamala's campaign.
 
The "original sin" of the title was not letting Biden have his choice
for running mate -- Gretchen Whitmer -- after the death of George Floyd.
No one in his administration wanted to work with Kamala and no one
thought she was ready to be president nor win an election.

And yet it looks like the powers-that-be are maneuvering her to be the next
governor of California. If that happens, Illinois can just give up. It'll
never catch California in the race to the bottom.
