My uncle is a whack righty and is also a racist who slings the big Mike conspiracy. Anyone who believes that or shares it deserves to have karma kick them in the ass. Deplorable indeed.
Every single person who believes this whackjob conspiracy theory and every single person who laughs in agreement are ignorant racists.
Legal experts slammed President Biden's announcement declaring the 28th Amendment law as "cynical and irrelevant."
Biden on Friday released a statement saying the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) should be considered ratified and a new addition to the U.S. Constitution.
"It is long past time to recognize the will of the American people. In keeping with my oath and duty to the Constitution and country, I affirm what I believe and what three-fourths of the states have ratified: the 28th Amendment is the law of the land, guaranteeing all Americans equal rights and protections under the law regardless of their sex," he said.
"Biden’s announcement is both cynical and irrelevant," said former Assistant U.S. attorney and Fox News contributor Andrew McCarthy. "If he believed what he is saying, he would’ve said it when his administration started, not when he is on his way out the door as a failed, one-term president.
"More importantly, the president has no constitutional role in the amendment process, so his view carries no weight."
"President Biden seems intent on moving his administration from the odious to the absurd," Jonathan Turley, Fox News contributor and the Shapiro Professor of Public Interest Law at George Washington University, told Fox News Digital. "This was an embarrassingly pandering moment to the most extreme elements in his party. It is a position based on a long-rejected and frankly ridiculous foundation."
When asked about the timing of the announcement by reporters, Biden said Friday, "Because I had to get all of the facts and I contacted every constitutional scholar in the world to make sure it was the right decision."
The ERA would prohibit discrimination based on gender. It was sent to the states for ratification in 1972, with Congress setting a 1979 deadline for three-quarters of state legislatures to ratify the amendment. The deadline was later extended to 1982.
Virginia became the last state to pass the amendment in 2020, pushing the final number of states who had passed the amendment to a total of 38. McCarthy noted that the ERA "was not ratified by the states within the statutorily allotted timeframe."
"The only way to get it into the Constitution would be to start all over again," McCarthy said. "Everybody knows this, including Biden. That is why the national archivist has not published it, nor has Biden had the temerity to try to order that that be done."
Turley also said: "Biden notably stopped short of giving the left what it wanted most: an actual executive order on the ratification. He simply made a declaration and presumably left the matter up to the archivist."
The national archivist is responsible for making constitutional amendments official. The archivist had previously declined to certify the amendment, citing a 2020 opinion from the Office of Legal Counsel of the DOJ (OLC) that "affirmed that the ratification deadline established by Congress for the ERA is valid and enforceable."
"The OLC concluded that extending or removing the deadline requires new action by Congress or the courts. Court decisions at both the District and Circuit levels have affirmed that the ratification deadlines established by Congress for the ERA are valid," the National Archives said in a statement in December. "Therefore, the Archivist of the United States cannot legally publish the Equal Rights Amendment. As the leaders of the National Archives, we will abide by these legal precedents and support the constitutional framework in which we operate."
"This is just pandering," McCarthy said. "It will have no lasting significance."

this is respectable, whether you agree with what he did or not. He's not going to whine and cry about being attacked. He says what he feels and deals with the slung mud.
Thanks for posting this. Been waiting for the tapper book. Democrats have become everything we complained about Trump eight years ago. Gaslighting and rampant dishonesty.
The yahoos on the left claiming the election was lost due to the price of bread, or the yahoos thinking a WI special election absolves the Democratic Party from lying to us, and the absolute loss of trust, need to read this book. This was a nightmare train wreck, and someone on the left needs to apologize to the country for the bullsht they pulled.

“And it’s all Biden,” Plouffe said. By deciding to run for reëlection and then waiting more than three weeks after the debate to bow out, Plouffe added, “He totally fvcked us.”
The real issue wasn’t his age, per se. It was the clear limitations of his abilities, which got worse throughout his Presidency. What the public saw of his functioning was concerning. What was going on in private was worse. While Biden on a day-in, day-out basis could certainly make decisions and assert wisdom and act as President, there were several significant issues that complicated his Presidency: a limit to the hours in which he could reliably function and an increasing number of moments when he seemed to freeze up, lose his train of thought, forget the names of top aides, or momentarily not remember friends he’d known for decades. Not to mention impairments to his ability to communicate—ones unrelated to his lifelong stutter.
It wasn’t a straight line of decline; he had good days and bad. But, until the last day of his Presidency, Biden and those closest to him refused to admit the reality that his energy, cognitive skills, and communication capacity had faltered considerably. Even worse, through various means, they tried to hide it. And then came the June 27th debate against Trump, when Biden’s decline was laid bare before the world. As a result, Democrats stumbled into the fall of 2024 with an untested nominee and growing public mistrust of a White House that had been gaslighting the American people.

This begs the question why is mental decline a significant issue for a dem president, but not for a republican one?

You are so tiresome. Who is defending Biden staying in the election? Who is defending Biden's team from being transparent? No one. You can be all mad about what happened in 2024 or you can get a fucking life and move forward. It's your call, but don't come at me with your passive aggressive bullshit.
"Someone on the left needs to apologize...".
Okay @Halifax2TheMax , can you PLEASE apologize to LERX (and the country) already so we can move on and we don't have to read the constant stream of whining that makes these pages intolerable so often? If I had known he just wanted someone on the left to apologize, then we could have made this stop a long time ago.

agreed....always the victim and the attacker is nowhere to be found.
How long have most of us been saying that Biden should have bowed out early? I don't recall anyone defending the decision.
I still think Biden would be a better president even if he is in a wheelchair and only working three hours a day.

I would but seeing how thoughts and prayers worked for school shootings, I might have to cancel my membership after tonight’s show when Eddie blesses the ICE agents. If he doesn’t, you can pay me tomorrow for an apology on Tuesday.
I’d take Brandon on life support and his “shadow” government over the current authoritarian clown car running things into the ground.
Pray for me if you must but please don’t preach the gospel to me.
This has to be the most shortsighted political comment of all time, congratulations. If you think it’s over… … who made the decision that he stay in the race? It obviously wasn’t Joe Biden.
…Who made the decision to trot him out onto that debate stage?
… Who made the critical decision that they do nothing for three weeks after the most horrendous debate performance of all time?
… Who made the decision that the nomination was gonna be handed to Kamala?
…. Who made the decision that there would be no voting for the Democratic nominee, and therefore handed the freedom and democracy argument straight to the Republicans?
The problem with these nonsensical comments on this page is there needs to be accountability.
Without accountability the same people will be making the decisions next time. I can’t believe the insanity on this forum.

It’s all a deflection from blaming the true culprits, the Republican Party, those who didn’t vote and those who voted for COOTWH. They all bear responsibility and own what we have now. Them and them alone. Some on here want to hold the Dems to a much higher standard and level of accountability rather than face the reality of the repubs being the party of white, Christian nationalists and authoritarians. Based on some posts, some posters relish what we’ve become. Some even believe their white male privilege will spare them.
What do you call a far right authoritarian lifting sanctions on a country ruled by a former member of ISIS? But we’re supposed to be worried about the Dems lying to us about Brandon.

It’s that Dems expect this standard from the other side, but expect nothing when the political crime of the century is committed on behalf of their own nominee. So the same political operative culprits will be around making important decisions next time. I posted important questions, but democrats are too tired and culting to want answers.

A false comparison. Nothing the dems have done rises to the level of the current fascist administration. Nothing.

I’d take Brandon on life support and his “shadow” government over the current authoritarian clown car running things into the ground.
Pray for me if you must but please don’t preach the gospel to me.

… who made the decision that he stay in the race? It obviously wasn’t Joe Biden.
… Who made the critical decision that they do nothing for three weeks after the most horrendous debate performance of all time?
… Who made the decision that the nomination was gonna be handed to Kamala?
…. Who made the decision that there would be no voting for the Democratic nominee, and therefore handed the freedom and democracy argument straight to the Republicans?
The problem with these nonsensical comments on this page is there needs to be accountability.
Without accountability the same people will be making the decisions next time. I can’t believe the insanity on this forum.

What do you call a far right authoritarian lifting sanctions on a country ruled by a former member of ISIS? But we’re supposed to be worried about the Dems lying to us about Brandon.
