All Things Biden: Is It Over Yet?

[Tero]

I learned something about libertarians I did not know before. The things they say about domestic matters also apply to the world. they think no international guidance is needed. IMF, WTO etc. All we need is capitalism!

It came up on twitter trying to explain how donating vaccines abroad helps us.

Who knew? President meeting foreigners:
LONDON — For the first time in nearly two years, the leaders of seven of the world's wealthiest democracies will meet to try to tackle some of the biggest global problems, including the post-pandemic recovery, climate change and the challenge of China. The three-day meeting of the Group of 7, hosted by the United Kingdom, will open on Friday in Carbis Bay, a seaside resort in Cornwall in southwest England.

I wonder if it's wise to always refer to China as a problem.

I wonder if it's wise to always refer to China as a problem.

Too general, in itself. But one can say that China as a nation (or more accurately its current authoritarian government) are a problem to Uighars, to countries bordering the South China seas, and in a variety of other ways...

Can't we just bomb the cunts?

There are rumours that the US is killing cities, decentralizing workforces as quickly as possible, without creating a panic, because someone in the CCP may be considering the same question.

More joy from the Biden Department of fucking Justice. Up the Christofascists!

'Justice Department says it can defend religious schools' exemption from anti-LGBTQ discrimination laws'

The Justice Department in a new court filing said it can “vigorously” defend a religious exemption from federal civil rights law that allows federally funded religious schools to discriminate against LGBTQ students. The filing relates to a pending lawsuit in which dozens of such students accuse conservative religious universities and colleges of discrimination and harm.

Some LGBTQ advocates were disturbed by the filing, which came Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Oregon, saying its wording went further than necessary, further than just an obligation to defend an existing law. They want the administration to agree with them that it’s unconstitutional for federally funded schools to discriminate against LGBTQ people, and that the exemption isn’t defensible.

While on the other hand, a tentative-sounding move in the other direction --

'Justice Department Scrutinizing Voting Laws to Determine if They Discriminate Against Voters of Color'

At a news conference Friday, Garland pledged to double the size of the agency's Civil Rights Division within the next 30 days. He stated that the agency will use all available provisions in the Voting Rights Act and other legislation to "ensure that we protect every qualified American seeking to participate in our democracy."

"The Civil Rights Division is going to need more lawyers," Garland said.

He added, "We are scrutinizing new laws that seek to curb voter access, and where we see violations, we will not hesitate to act. We are also scrutinizing current laws and practices in order to determine whether they discriminate against Black voters and other voters of color."

Garland said it was "particularly concerning" to see studies showing that in some jurisdictions, non-white voters must wait in line at the polls substantially longer than white voters.

His remarks come amid a Republican-led effort to reform election procedures and limit voter access in the wake of the 2020 election.

The Brennan Center for Justice, a bipartisan law and public policy institute at New York University Law School, found at least 14 states enacted 22 new laws that restrict access to the vote between January 1 and May 14, 2021.

They should have ID confirmed for voting that is treated as important. Just like the check they do to sell a gun.

Of course. Our thoughts and prayers are with those that died from mass balloting.
