Biden refuses to apologise for working with racist senators


California Senator Kamala Harris, who is black, lambasted Mr Biden for "coddling" segregationists.

She said he did not seem to understand "the dark history of our country".

New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, who is also black, said it was "so insulting" that Mr Biden had called on him to apologise.

"He knows better," Mr Booker told CNN. "And at a time when Donald Trump never apologises for anything, I know Joe Biden. He's better than this."

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted his criticism, along with a photo of his inter-racial family.


Oh shit, Biden was just another old white guy, but he's now a racist too!

The left eating itself is a beautiful thing to watch. Guess you had better throw up Harris or Booker, I'm sure they'd do so well against Trump. Harris 2020!!

Analysis: For Trump, ‘judgment time is coming’ on how to respond to Iran

“In some ways, President Trump is on a collision course with himself,” said Robert Malley, “He says he’s in favor of maximum pressure and he’s against military confrontation when it comes to Iran but both of those things can’t be true because one of those things can lead to the other.”

Even if Mr. Trump ultimately does not resort to force in response to the drone attack, the decision on how far he is willing to go in terms of Iran may not be far-off. The episode was only the latest in a series of relatively modest provocations, but Tehran has said it is about to turn its nuclear program back on in a way that will go beyond the limits of the agreement Mr. Trump abandoned.

Nothing short of a direct attack on US soil will draw Trump into a war with Iran despite the war-mongers that are advising him. Pompeo, Bolton, the rest of the neo-cons and the military-industrial complex might be gagging for conflict, but Trump makes the decisions and he knows that a war will tank his chances for reelection in 2020.

Ah yes, we are all very aware that for good or ill Trump will not make any move or let anything interfere with his grab for four more years and even beyond the eight year term limit.

Yep, just like every other politician on Earth in the entire history of the democratic process. And how exactly is Trump not wanting to go to war a bad thing? And the 'Trump wanting to extend the term limit' thing is a lie, based on a joke. You do remember 'jokes' don't you? People used to make them often before the leftist outrage/media machine took control of their thoughts.

Trump has whined for years that Democrats have stolen two years from his pretender in chief reign and where in the fuck did I say not wanting to go to war is a bad thing.

In future I would really appreciate that you don't twist my words from assumptions you make. Thank You.
 
So you think that Mayor Lozano didn't say what's being reported? He did. I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. It was a factual report not a NYT opinion piece.

It's just so funny that you always post from shady sites. Literally every time, but cry about fake news and media manipulation like nonstop. It makes me laugh. And that entertains me. Sorry if that went over your head.

I also love that comment about the "war mongers" that he himself picked for those positions. Or the fact that trump withdrew us from the JCPOA, overriding the national security team in the first place so, ya know, whatev.

This shit is what’s going to ensure Trump being re-elected. Yes, let’s make a giant deal about everything Biden has ever done slightly wrong. That won’t fuck us in the end.
 
Trump had sex with porn stars, paid them off and then LIED for a year straight. Who cares?! Fucking prudes, hadn't you ever cheated on your wife right after she gave birth and didn't use protection with a woman who's prob slept with 100s of dudes? Stay in your lane.

Biden farted in an elevator once, FUCKING BURN HIS ASS AT THE STAKE.

And this is what is SOOOOOOOO ludicrous about trump supporters. He does the most stupid, foul shit and that's ok, but let anyone else do anything ever so slight and they turn into judgy mcjudgepants

It's not Republicans judging Biden. It's Democrats. Primarily Booker, Harris, Warren.... You know, the ones who think this will help them gain ground in the race for the nomination.

Well, they did their very best didn't they, with their "RUSSIA!!!" lies? Which is exactly what it was. A lie orchestrated by the DNC. But hypocrites don't seem to care in spite of the fact the only verifiable collusion with Russia was paid for by Democrats. So yeah, they tried to steal back an election that they lost, then attempted to undermine the POTUS for over two years.

Can you honestly tell me that if you swapped 'Democrats' with 'Republicans' in that whole affair that you would not be outraged?

And I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make assumptions. So are you saying that Trump did the right thing, but he's still (orange man) bad for doing the right thing?

I'm glad that you find me entertaining. I've had that effect on older women since I was in my late teens. As for the war-mongers, they are what they are. I'll call out people on my preferred side if I think it's appropriate. Something that I've yet to see you do. It's a good thing that advisers don't make decisions.

And the Iran deal was pathetic bullshit attempt by Obama to buy Iran off for the duration of his Presidency, not a viable plan to prevent an evil regime from building nuclear weapons. Trump was right on that one, funneling hundreds of billions of dollars to a radical Islamist state is something only an ignorant radical leftist could support.

And if you can't tell me why a factual news article (not an editorial) is wrong, then you are just proving your own ignorance and bias.

President Trump criticized the media on Saturday for reporting that he halted plans for a military strike on Iran, tweeting that he had merely ordered the strike to not go forward "at this time."

In a tweet Saturday evening, the president appeared to indicate that a military strike on Iran could be possible in the coming days unless tensions between the two countries eased.

"I never called the strike against Iran "BACK," as people are incorrectly reporting, I just stopped it from going forward at this time!" Trump tweeted.

… hmmm

Kushner's economic plan for Mideast peace faces broad Arab rejection

RIYADH/AMMAN/CAIRO, June 23 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's economic vision as part of the wider plan to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was met with contempt, repudiation and exasperation in the Arab world, even as some in the Gulf called for it to be given a chance.

The $50 billion "peace to prosperity" plan, set to be presented by Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner at a conference in Bahrain next week, envisions a global investment fund to lift the Palestinian and neighboring Arab state economies.

But the lack of a political solution, which Washington has said would be unveiled later, prompted rejection not only from Palestinians but also in Arab countries that Israel would seek normal relations with.

From Sudan to Kuwait, prominent commentators and ordinary citizens denounced Kushner's proposals in strikingly similar terms: "colossal waste of time," "non-starter," "dead on arrival."

"Homelands cannot be sold, even for all the money in the world," Egyptian analyst Gamal Fahmy said. "This plan is the brainchild of real estate brokers, not politicians. Even Arab states that are described as moderate are not able to openly express support for it."

Kushner … pffft!

Aww... You're a sweetheart. No worries. I probably did deserve a little snark... At least you didn't call me a racist....

I'll say it one more time, read slowly. It's funny to me that you are constantly whining, incessantly really, about media manipulation but you seem to only follow bullshit sites that are known for their bias and ignorance. Is it just coincidence that every link you post is from some far right crackpot site? Or do you scour them until you find an article based in a bit of fact? I give not a single fuck. It's just funny to me. I am sorry if that is a concept that falls short for you.
 
Oversight panel demands White House official testify on Trump-Putin docs

The House Oversight and Reform Committee is demanding that the White House’s records chief testify about President Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to conceal documents detailing his private conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

In a letter to Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) said the White House has ignored his previous requests for information about Trump’s compliance with the Presidential Records Act, which mandates that such documents be preserved.

“These actions do not serve the interests of the American people, and they obstruct and frustrate the committee’s review,” Cummings wrote in his letter, which comes just a few days before Trump is scheduled to meet with Putin at the G-20 summit in Japan.

Democrats have long been suspicious about Trump’s private conversations with Putin — most notably, after his meeting with the Russian president in Helsinki last year, when Trump bucked his own intelligence agencies by saying he had no reason to believe that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election.

Earlier this year, the White House rejected a joint request from Cummings, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) for documents related to those discussions, which took place at various points throughout Trump’s first two years in office.

Michiganders say manufacturing renaissance my broke ass!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump Promised a Manufacturing Renaissance. What Happens in 2020 in Places That Lost Those Jobs?

DIMONDALE, Mich. — In August 2016, Donald J. Trump was full of promises when he spoke to a packed crowd at the Summit Sports and Ice Complex here. Predicting that he would carry Michigan, a state that had not voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 1988, Mr. Trump said his would be “a victory for the wage-earner, the factory worker, a victory for the everyday citizen.”

That pledge and his promise to bring back the industrial jobs were major reasons Mr. Trump carried Dimondale and the rest of Eaton County, an area heavily dependent on the automotive industry that voted for Barack Obama in 2012, and went on to carry Michigan in an upset crucial to his election.

But nothing has reversed the decline of the county’s manufacturing base. From January 2017 to December 2018, it lost nearly 9 percent of its manufacturing jobs, and 17 other counties in Michigan that Mr. Trump carried have experienced similar losses, according to a newly updated analysis of employment data by the Brookings Institution.

“To the extent that economic realities have the power to alter voting behavior, the trends are pointing in one direction in Michigan in a lot of these counties,” said Mark Muro, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who directed the analysis.

And that makes it most likely that Michigan, which the president won by only 10,704 votes, could be a place where his expansive promises will come back to haunt him in 2020.

More troubling for Mr. Trump, some of the same forces are at work in the two other states that were critical to his Electoral College victory — Wisconsin, where 10 counties that he won in 2016 lost manufacturing jobs, and Pennsylvania, where eight counties that he carried faced manufacturing job losses.

“Michigan is likely a forerunner,” Mr. Muro said. “I could imagine Pennsylvania and Wisconsin turning negative or losing growth momentum the rest of the year.” While Michigan’s economy is more dependent on the big automakers, all three states have economies with roots in factory work, particularly in smaller towns and rural areas that have been steadily losing ground because of automation and globalization.
