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!

MODERATORS
There is nothing that forces Biden to waive federal laws. Biden had a choice, he just decided to make this one for whatever reason. Republicans can obstruct all they want, but apparently democrats are incapable of even inaction to stop or slow down dumb republican shit like the border wall. Tell me how this makes any sense.
Biden slapping his name onto the economy by calling it "bidenomics" is a risky bet when the market is so fickle and people can feel wildly different depending on their individual circumstances. Broad numbers can hide very real problems that aren't being addressed.
It's not "for whatever reason".
Why delay the inevitable? Do it, gain some political points, move on. It's gonna happen anyway, and he needed he points he got from moderates more than he needed the points from people like you.
So you admit that he had a choice in the matter, but now you claim it was needed to score points with the supposed "moderates" that love republican policy. If "moderates" want a wall, they will simply vote republican. This dumb stunt does not change that at all. I am curious what you mean by "people like you".
I meant "far leftists who make irrational demands of Democrats"
He had no choice in stopping the wall from being built.
He could claim points for not delaying it.
Both of these are true.
And do you really believe moderate Democrats don't exist?
Ah, okay, sorry for making the irrational request of a president with a spine. I should just be happy with the slide into fascism as democrats bend over backwards for supposed "moderates" while republicans go mask-off fascist and democrats insist that we need a strong republican party and that we can work with them (meanwhile republicans are free to pull every dirty trick in the book).
Let me know when your temper tantrum is finished and you actually want to advance policy that helps people.
I already let you know but you just acted like an arrogant know-it-all, which is stereotypical democrat. You embody the worst aspects of the party.
Still waiting
