Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Not something the President can do.

Also the CHIPS Act
Economies worldwide have taken a shit and the US is doing better than pretty much any other nation. So maybe it isn't great but comparatively it's pretty good.

Are you talking about the one that ArDOT was supposed to be inspecting but didn't?
Sorry your grandfather had to go through that but where does he live and what was his problem? There can't be a VA hospital on every corner and unless his problem is service related he should be to a regular hospital anyway.

Once again, the president does not introduce legislation.
All anti-LGBTQI+ legislation is at the state level.
Once again... not something that can be done by EO. Abortion rights were stripped because the Republican party slow rolled Supreme Court nominations under Obama giving Trump three seats whose nominees lied to the Senate about their position.
I'm still paying my student loan debt as well but he has gotten $136 billion for 3.7 million people forgiven.
The proposal to reschedule marijuana from a class 1 to a 3 is with the DEA after the HHS recommended the change.
You got me here mostly because it's pushing midnight and I can't think of anything of the top of my head. I can't imagine that, at a minimum) Harris (a black woman) hasn't done with work towards this.

Without nationalized healthcare I don't know what Biden is supposed to do about that. Also depending on where you live, state policies are driving doctors out of the state. Idaho has lost 1/4 of their OB/GYN doctors in the last year because of their policies.
BLAB: Biden isn't perfect but he's a lot better than you're giving him credit for and you're blaming him for things he can't control. In the end his general election opponent will likely be Trump and things are 100 times better under Biden.

those expectations were set by Biden and was replying to the earlier comment using the whitehouse.gov site as his accomplishments
not blaming him but rather saying he has not lived up to the goals and expectations he himself advertised and set for him and Harris during the last campaign and this one current
