My favourite Q bull squirt was when they said JFK jr. was coming out of hiding and going to endorse trump.

Biden came out with a repeat of Obama’s “Buy American” order yesterday. I wonder if that buffoon leading the NDP will cheer this one on as well as the KXL cancelation.

I mean, if they were, you'd think they'd find something with even higher standards, not lower. It seems more likely Q followers were looking for something that validated their preconceived ideas and biases.

If Biden goes down the Obama path of bailouts after a crisis and monopolies, the US is in for more hurt.

I know she deserves as little benefit of the doubt as anyone, but for some reason I am betting on hacks. In the story you linked, they noted that Claudia stated she believes this on reflection.

Anyway, can't wait for this family to leave the spotlight

What pathway forward do you think is available to prevent the pain in the US?

Claudia should sue her mom for 1.3 billion

Tax breaks for corporations and let the job creators pass those savings along to their employees and the public

Corporations shouldn't have to pay taxes. People should pay taxes to corporations. We need to go back to the start of the 20th century where corporations can pay their employees in company script and only let them spend it in their stores. Hell, make corporations the government and then we all work for their script and pay directly to them! We're just about there right now!

Based on my... less than limited knowledge on economics, I think I would like to see a proposal discussed that reduces corporate tax rates (or maintain current low levels) and higher minimum wages and employee burdens (i.e. paid time off, employer CPP matching beyond 1:1, etc).

Force the tax savings from the employer to the employee. Reduces the desire to move taxes offshore. However, has a potential unfair negative impact on pre-revenue companies and companies not profitable.

If Biden goes down the Obama path of bailouts? Can we compare bailouts between Presidents? Wasn't Obama's bailout was a result of Bush's failed bailout, which went to Wall Street and corporations? Didn't Trump give $2 TRILLION in tax cuts to corporations and the top .1%, then gave them all a COVID bailout? Wasn't it raining money for the rich under Trump? But we have to be worried about Obama's bailouts and following suit there, because THAT'S going to ruin the economy?

Just asking questions.

I got one too. In some ways, it was nice to get a break from ads for Raid Shadow Legends and that shirtless dude who knows just how to help me lose weight. But what the hell did I watch that got me targeted with that bull####?

This is a good start

An executive order directing Biden's attorney general to not renew DOJ contracts with privately operated criminal detention facilities;
A presidential memorandum directing the Department of Housing and Urban Development to examine the effects of the Trump administration's regulatory actions that "undermined fair housing policies and laws." Based on that analysis, the memo also directs HUD to take steps to fully implement the requirements of the Fair Housing Act.
An executive order pushing federal agencies to regularly and meaningfully engage with Tribal governments;
And an executive memorandum directing the Health and Human Services Department and Biden's Covid health equity task force to consider issuing best practices for advancing "cultural competency" and sensitivity toward Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders as part of its Covid response efforts. The memo also directs the DOJ to partner with those communities to prevent hate crimes and harassment against them.

Next abolish ICE.

President Joe Biden ordered his Department of Justice not to renew its contracts with private prisons, one of multiple new planks of Biden’s broad-focused racial justice agenda

I didn't think I would see this change so quickly, way to go Biden!

I think when you look at the reasons given and the events from last spring, the BLM folk can put a feather in their hat- I have no doubt their actions had no small part in this being part of Biden's plans.
