Nearly two-thirds of Democrats want Biden to withdraw, new AP-NORC poll finds
  • No they don't.

    They wanted Joe to not run again in the first place, and for the DNC to nominate someone else.

    Don't get me wrong, biden's administration has done amazing work. We are just so focused on the stupid horse race that we're not actually picking a leader.

    The main difference between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is then Biden isn't a raging narcissist. He has surrounded himself with competent people who are quietly doing a great job of running the government.

  • Jails banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls as part of a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with prison phone companies
  • You're describing an alternate reality where heavily armed people are able to recognize corruption and rally against it. The most hate-filled, firearm fanatics I know of have Trump 2024 signs in their yard. And they're waiting with bated breath for an excuse to murder any person who says they should have the right to health Care.

    The people with the most guns are the ones with the least brains.

  • Not really about an endorsement of the two-party system. When you go to the gas pump and see a picture of biden's face with an I did that sticker, it's a pretty safe bet that the person who put that up is a Republican.

    Likewise, when you see someone criticizing the Biden administration for things that county jails are doing, safe bet it's a Republican.

    But apparently your definition of enlightened centerists includes people who know what the executive branch actually controls.

    Biden doesn't have a gas price dial on his desk, and doesn't set visitation policies for county jails.

  • The article mentions a lot of county jails, but are federal prisons doing this? I'm pretty sure the executive branch isn't in charge of county jails.

    I think the supreme Court could probably decide that this is cruel and unusual punishment. Or that Congress could pass a federal law setting regulations for local jails.

    I'm not a jail expert, but this sounds like something Biden has no control over.
