Americans being whoppers is still news?
Election 2024: The Fate of Democracy

More rational balanced news:
To be honest Fox are probably as bad, truth be told. But this is why legacy media needs to die and people are now turning away in their droves

Trump must be prosecuted for holding classified documents in his possession (taken whilst he was President and he claims to exonerate him for when the US declares war on Iran - who knows?).
Biden has classified documents in his possession from when he was Vice-President, but shouldn’t face prosecution because he’s a senile old man who won’t remember - whilst running to be President again for the next term: https://news.sky.com/story/joe-biden-wilfully-disclosed-classified-materials-but-president-not-charged-after-portraying-himself-as-elderly-man-special-counsel-says-13067069
The whole thing is nothing but theatre. Whilst Trump is all over the front pages for his court case with hush money for Stormy Daniels, Congrss pass another bill for $61b of US taxpayers’ money to Ukraine (the last big payment passed during the Superbowl ginal - lol)
The kickback of which eventually comes back to the likes of Blackrock & Vanguard, who are now essentially thr owners of Ukrainian infrastructure.
The whole system is rotten to the core and for all his faults, you can see why people want to vote for someone who calls a lot of the shit out - he’s not the right person in my opinion, but I can see why he’s appealing to people
Us taxpayer pays for it all to end up in private hands.
In summay, I’ll leave the final word the the current POTUS:
Obummer making Joe relevant sucks so much.

Make no mistake, Donald Trump becoming Resident of the USA is beyond parody. You have to ask yourself how and why it happened in the first place - an electorate fed up by the same old shit on offer, being told how lucky they are to have it so good, whilst realising their quality of life is on a downward trajectory.
Banks get bailed out and the same regulators - completely complicit with the meltdown in the first place, are reappointed, whilst the taxpayer gets left to pick up the pieces. Public debts, private profits

Meanwhile in the UK: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68839793
100 MPs standing down at the next election? That’s 1 in every 6.5 MPs.
It’s almost like they know there’s a massive shit storm coming their way.

How many in the US think Obama is the first gay president and married to a trans bloke, Zack?
Hursty married to a trans bloke Zack?
Big Mike?
NPR polling has Biden +3 among registered voters, +7 among likely voters. If this is true/holds then Joe walks into his second term. Don’s campaign is spending all of its money on his legal bills, so it’s not a stretch to think that he will massively fumble the bag.
zackster Obama doing nothing, out side of passing a Republican healthcare reform bill, with his super majority
He ran on hope and change, was given the power, and did absolutely nothing with it. That was the moment for me that cemented how futile it is to expect anyone in politics to do better. The revolution won’t be televised because it isn’t going to happen until people are actually starving.
And our right wing provincial government is actively taking steps toward the privatization of healthcare. There’s a total misalignment between individual political incentives and societal goals. It’s clear that unless people start holding our decision makers accountable, there’s no other mechanism that will.
LOL @ Juror #2!
