I really don't like that the sources on this article are missing.
Sure, that’s a lot of money for the wealthy who control 93% of stock, but it’s also tens of millions of Americans who will have a more comfortable and secure retirement. In fact, the number of Americans who have over $1 million in their retirement accounts grew by 20% in the last quarter of 2023.
Fine and dandy, except that half of Americans don't have a retirement account. Or 47% of Americans.
So while retirement indexes are up, 1:2 people are not going to see that.
Inflation eased slightly in April — the first time this year that has happened. Overall inflation edged down to 3.4% and slipped to 3.6% when you exclude food and energy costs. (food expected to rise by an additional 2.2%)
Good to see the brakes are working. But just remember that not everyone goes out to by a car or house on a twice-a-week basis. But everyone does with the grocery store. Which in Biden's defense, he has started trying to pull back.
Though effort =/= job done.
What is their obsession with this dude?
According to the Fox report, House Ways and Means Committee chair Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) says Biden "mischaracterized" his role working for his own firm, Rosemont Seneca. Biden said that he didn't "control" the bank accounts for the company and they were not "affiliated with him."
Really? ? Wake me up when republican's find evidence. Otherwise, this is just the same circus with the same clowns.
Sigh.... I am so tired of this gaslighting.
Just because people criticize Biden does not mean they are a follower of the MAGA cult.
Biden can do so much better then this. People want a reason to support him.
Instead we are being blamed for Biden's failures, because Biden chooses not to listen. While every time we try to change course we are being told we are anti-democratic. That we are trying to get Trump elected.
Like the average voter has more power then the president.
At this point, I am on no-body's side, because no one is anti-genocide.
The jury haven't even made a ruling yet.... All they've done is listen.....
"You are going into a kangaroo court. There's nothing more. Nothing less. There'd be absolutely no reason, no justification to do that whatsoever." - Donald Trump Jr.
Not even an excuse? , if the jury only has one side of the story that is what they are going with.
If you aren't even going to put your fists up and spend all your time arguing with the referee, you can't complain when you get KO'ed
What is Biden's definition of a genocide then? I am seriously curious.
Because many people that are leaving his cabinet, they seem to think it is a genocide.
Students seem to think it's a genocide.
The public thinks it's a genocide.
The Jewish and Israeli population think it is a genocide.
So... everyone else is wrong then?
If you go back in history more then Oct 7. You'll find a lot of questions.... like....
That 4 billion we sent to Israel.... that was supposed to go to defense from attacks such as this...... where did it go?
Why were the guards not even in armor before Hamas descended on them, even though there was an early warning?
How did a government that was warned of the attack a month before it happened decide to do nothing about it?
Why is Israel's tactics not reflecting a hostage situation and more of a scorched-earth policy?
Why did Israel shoot their own hostages that were waving White flags?
It's not Israel's pursuit of justice that disgusts people, it's Israel's deplorable tactics that is embarrassing both the US and Israel. Only Israel.... doesn't seemed to ashamed of them..... While the US is burning global goodwill by the megaton.
So yes, both sides.
I don't think you'll find many people that don't look at our current healthcare system as a wreck. People are paying $150-$300 a month for a coupon that takes 70% off their next hospital bill of $200,000.
A better message would be that Trump is coming for our Democracy.
But this current message lacks any perspective on our current healthcare system.
here is no equivalence - none - between Israel and Hamas.
A week ago he is saying that Israel may have used bombs to commit human rights violations, suddenly that evidence doesn't exist?
Is the dementia hitting Biden that hard?
