That's the problem tho, the media made it a big deal about trump like it was some sort of presidential scale espionage, they were literally blowing every minutiae up to epic scales, it's not surprise why trump was afraid? to admit having documents.

So now something that was common for every president/vp to do is now a big deal, for Biden supporters to now pull a 180 and go "it's no biggie" is comical

The only reason Biden's group are coming out and turning in the documents they have is bcuz the Republicans have some power now and say they're going to investigate

This is what makes us politics entertaining for me, not just how all politicians are drama Queens, but how their supporters are crazed lemmings who flip flop from issues they claim are important af then next describing it as "eh no big deal"

Again, both of them (Trump and Biden) should NOT run for re-election ... the Alzheimer is kicking in.

This is actually what ruined politics for me. Can barely have intellectually stimulating discussions anymore. I've just accepted that both sides are filth and that life shouldn't focus on 'left or right' but rather 'up or down'.

Corral the herds and feed them only what you tell them is good for them.

Hunter Biden, renowned for his laptop security and responsible lifestyle, a resident of the Fort Knox Corvette garage. Other documents at the Chinese-funded thinktank office. A 3rd location now being reported and who knows who had access to that one. Apparently all discovered and withheld until after the mid-terms, much like the Hunter Biden Laptop story of the 2020 election.

C'mon I really don't want to see a Kamala Harris presidency.

I did like 2 minutes of google image searches, and I was able to find at least 5 different versions of Hunter Biden’s driver license…. And they all have different addresses on them depending what angle/agenda the person who posted it is trying to push.

Might want to check the facts of the stuff you’re looking at and reading/believing.

Bouncing, give me a break man, you're posting photoshopped crap as news?

This whole document thing is a total false equivalency.

In one scenario (Trump's) he hid documents and purposely obstructed, refused, and attempted to destroy classified documents.

In the other scenario (Biden's) his lawyers found some mistakenly kept documents, they immediately contacted the National Archives to inform them of such:

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/wha...ne-2023-01-12/

It's an apples or oranges comparison. One is I saw your wallet on your desk and took it, the other is I found your wallet in the bathroom and returned it to you.

Either way, I'm not fan of Hunter Biden, nepotism is a real issue in government, such corruption should be addressed regardless of party affiliation.

This will be investigated, and we'll see the outcome.

This also details the nuance between the two cases here:

It's most definitely not an apples to apples comparison.

Clearly, Biden should claim that Obama declassified these documents with his mind.

If Biden did indeed commit a crime, then he should be held accountable. However the republicans foaming at the mouth right now, were foaming at the mouth a few years ago for exactly the opposite thing.

Republicans, then: "We cannot prosecute a sitting president!!! That's unconstitutional!!!"
Republicans, now: "The sitting president must be prosecuted!!! Nobody is above the constitution!!!"

Give me a break.

^ you nailed it. It goes both ways though ... Dems say that to Repubs. Repubs say that to Dems ... depending on who occupies the oval office and who controls the House. So this is the BEST example of democracy that the world has to offer ... ??!!

Thanx Biden.

Drugs giant Eli Lilly caps monthly insulin costs in US at $35

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-64814505

Quote:
More than eight million Americans use insulin to control their diabetes, the American Diabetes Association says.

Last year, the US passed a law capping monthly costs at $35 for people with certain government health insurance.

But for many people with private insurance the costs remain much higher.

Eli Lilly said it would institute the cap on out-of-pocket costs for Lilly insulin users immediately as it prepares to cut the list price of two of its most commonly prescribed insulins, Humalog and Humalin, by 70% by the end of the year.

It is also dropping the list price of its non-branded insulin, Lispro, to $25 a vial, effective 1 May.

Credit??? They are pissed. The US is now one step closer to becoming a communist country. A company should be able to charge what ever they want for a product and then take some of that profit and put it in the pockets of politicians.

This is of course all over the news now, and coming purely from a "I don't wanna see a senior fall down" point of view, I hope he is OK.

The GOP is definitely gonna have a field day with this one though, using this as an example of why Biden is unsuitable for the POTUS job.

He's old for sure but fuck man, the funny thing with these "gotcha" moments is that people are hypocrites.

As a president you pretty much have cameras on you 24/7 when you're in the public eye, imagine if a camera followed you around throughout your normal day to day.

Think of how many times you'd look stupid tripping on stuff, or whatever else.

They'd catch me farting and picking my nose constantly.

I don't know why America can't come up with any decent candidates that aren't ancient. I don't love Trudeau but I'm sure he doesn't need a reminder to put his pants on every morning.
