i would rather have him sit in the background and do his job than be out front grandstanding, tweeting, and gaslighting 18 hours per day.
He also did not feel the need to put his name on the stimulus checks.
Jeez Trump's awfulness really set a low bar for Joe when not tweeting about ratings and not putting his name on stimulus checks is considered noteworthy. But to Joe's credit, he's been clearing the low bar so that's good.

Oh dear! Then how will we ever know that it's a good check? Will the bank refuse it?
Because he will fly all over the country reminding you he sent you a check. These guys in cases like this aren’t that different. They are all politicians in some ways.
I read a decent thread the other day about why it's good that Biden hasn't been speaking much.
One of the noted points was how polarized our country is right now, and how polarizing a figure he himself is at this moment. The fact that he isn't in front of the cameras giving sound bites on a regular basis isn't a bad thing.
I LOVE the fact that he is relatively boring and not in our faces every hour of every day. Such a refreshing change of pace.
That's part of it too.
People aren't hearing from the guy 24/7 so they think there's something wrong.
Maybe if he'd do his job and rage-tweet 10 hours a day, vilify domestic enemies, and spend more time being the victim, we'd feel better about. Come on, Sleepy Joe!

Haaland OK'd at Interior, 1st Native American Cabinet head
By MATTHEW DALY
13 mins ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate on Monday confirmed New Mexico Rep. Deb Haaland as interior secretary, making her the first Native American to lead a Cabinet department and the first to lead the federal agency that has wielded influence over the nation’s tribes for nearly two centuries.
Haaland was confirmed by a 51-40 vote.
Democrats and tribal groups hailed Haaland’s confirmation as historic, saying her selection means that Indigenous people — who lived in North America before the United States was created — will for the first time see a Native American lead the powerful department where decisions on relations with the nearly 600 federally recognized tribes are made. Interior also oversees a host of other issues, including energy development on public lands and waters, national parks and endangered species.
“Rep. Haaland's confirmation represents a gigantic step forward in creating a government that represents the full richness and diversity of this country,'' said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
“Native Americans for far too long have been neglected at the Cabinet level and in so many other places,'' Schumer said.
Haaland's nomination has been closely watched by tribal communities across the country, with some virtual parties drawing hundreds of people to watch her two-day confirmation hearing last month.
Supporters projected a photo of Haaland, a two-term congresswoman who represents greater Albuquerque, on the side of the Interior building in downtown Washington with text that read “Our Ancestors’ Dreams Come True.”
Many Native Americans see Haaland, 60, as someone who will elevate their voices and protect the environment and tribes’ rights. Her selection break a two-century pattern of non-Native officials, mostly male, serving as the top federal official over American Indian affairs. The federal government often worked to dispossess tribes of their land and, until recently, to assimilate them into white culture.
“It is long past time that an American Indian serve as the secretary of the Interior," said Fawn Sharp, president of the National Congress of American Indians, the nation's oldest and largest tribal organization.
“The nation needs her leadership and vision to help lead our response to climate change, to steward our lands and cultural resources and to ensure that across the federal government, the United States lives up to its trust and treaty obligations to tribal nations and our citizens,'' Sharp said.
Jonathan Nez, president of the Navajo Nation in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah, called Haaland’s confirmation “an unprecedented and monumental day for all first people of this country. Words cannot express how overjoyed and proud we are to see one of our own confirmed to serve in this high-level position.″
Haaland’s confirmation “sets us on a better path to righting the wrongs of the past with the federal government and inspires hope in our people, especially our young people,'' Nez added.
Not everyone was celebrating. Some Republican senators have criticized Haaland's views on oil drilling and other energy development as “radical” and extreme, citing her opposition to the Keystone XL oil pipeline and her support for the Green New Deal, a sweeping, if mostly aspirational, policy to address climate change and income inequality.
Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, the top Republican on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, said Haaland's “extreme views" and support of “catastrophic legislation” such as the Green New Deal would make her confirmation as interior secretary disastrous, harming America's energy supply and economy.
“American jobs are being sacrificed in the name of the Biden agenda, and Rep. Haaland couldn’t defend it,'' Barrasso said, referring to decisions by President Joe Biden to reject the Keystone XL pipeline and impose a moratorium on new oil and gas leases on federal lands.
Barrasso also faulted Haaland's support for continued protection for grizzly bears in the Yellowstone region of the Rocky Mountains, despite a recommendation by the Fish and Wildlife Service that about 700 bears in parts of Montana, Wyoming and Idaho no longer need protections.
“Rep. Haaland has chosen to ignore the science and the scientists of the very department that she is now nominated to lead,'' Barrasso said, calling on Interior to remove protections for the grizzly under the Endangered Species Act.
Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., said she appreciates Haaland's leadership in the House on a range of issues, adding that Haaland's status as a Native American “will give us an extra advantage on (tribal) issues that are so important to Indian Country overall.''
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, said she had “some real misgivings” about Haaland because of her views on oil drilling and other energy issues, but said Native Alaskans, an important constituency in her rural state, had urged her to back Haaland.
“Quite honestly, we need (Haaland) to be a success,″ Murkowski said.
Sen. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., said he was disappointed at the rhetoric used by Barrasso and other Republicans. Heinrich, who lives in Haaland’s district, said she “always has an open door and an open mind” to a range of views.

-13000 kids detained without parents so far (in the same facilities as before, which were called cages -Some facilities at 729% capacity beyond the legal limit -Biden admin has put a formal “gag order” on all border patrol personnel. It includes not speaking to reporters, no press photos, no press “ride alongs.”
Can you just imagine this place and the left in general if Trump had issued a gag order?! “What is he hiding?” “He’s killing them!” “He’s selling their parts to conservative medical clinics!” Lmao, it would be kristilnacht. Ya’ll would be burning down Taco Bell’s and looting small black owned businesses.
How are those indictments coming along? Enquiring clown shoes want to know.
How about actually answering the question about the problems at the border? Instead of still talking about indictments. Fucking Trump really lowered the bar of what we should expect from a president. Move on from him. Everyone needs to.

Please.. RoleModels pops in here, posts a bunch of BS, gets challenged, and then flees for a week. Then he shows back up with some other right wing metric that doesn't pass the rationality test and then flees again.

It be easier to discuss if those making the claims would have been so vociferous in their opposition when it was twice as bad, and worse, under the previous administration and yet remained silent or cheered the policy on. BOO! And if the poster didn’t believe in an alternate universe of the Deep State and the soon to be indictments.
What are your suggestions/solutions for the border seeing how you seem so concerned with my answering the question?
Funny, you brought up POOTWH. I never mentioned him.
And remind me what the repub solution is to the immigration issue is again? It’s only been since 1986 since the last immigration bill was passed. Obama had the DREAM Act, what’d the repubs offer? A wall. Anything else?

I am concerned with your answer. I’d like to hear your take. When you’re not busy posting nonsense, you’re actually very capable of making valid points. I just know you have a better answer then “how are those indictments coming along”

Roles’ post didn’t deserve a serious, well thought out response nor my time.
How can you be concerned with my answer when I haven’t provided one? If you care to know, there is or was an immigration thread kicking around that I believe my views, backed with links to studies and data dispel a lot of what the right wing anger machine would have you believe. Feel free to review, get a sense of my views as they relate to immigration and come back with a question. I’m not up for re-litigating an issue that the other side thinks can be solved with a wall. Sorry.
