Analysis: Job growth will slow during a Biden presidency: The easy gains are almost gone https://t.co/0kmNstMlol

— The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) November 11, 2020

Just in case you’re keeping track:

The Obama economy was Bush’s fault.

The Trump economy was Obama’s doing.

The future suck-ass Biden economy, which will be a copy of the Obama economy, will be Trump’s fault.

It’s good to know that before Biden is even sworn in that the next four years will have little growth, your 401(k) will yield shit, and you are going to live a life of financial uneasiness with no raises or promotions as your costs go up.

With all the bad news lately, I did find a bit of solace here.

You may have noticed the little underlined passage on that screen capture. It is important because it does not show in their Facebook page and it is also misleading as that newsroom no longer exists. I pointed this out.

That they are gone and no longer in the building is not a state secret. Hell, they even published it back in  June of this year in a very similar-looking article. They even sold the printing building and subcontract the job of a paper edition to another shop in Broward County.

So, like a lot of people today, the Journos of the Herald are working from home.

We know that the office space of today is not what the office space will be for tomorrow as it relates to social distancing and keeping our employees safe. For that reason, Miami Herald and el Nuevo Herald employees will continue to work remotely through the end of the year. After the New Year, once the commercial real estate industry has sorted itself out with regard to new standards and approaches, we will find a new, centralized home.

So what are they after? They either looking for more money to try and rent some abandoned strip mall space and re-open a physical business or they are in such a bad place, they can barely deal with the expenses of their people working from home.

So the Herald has two options: Find themselves a foreign pimp/sugar daddy like the New York Times did or simply close down its doors and save some trees and innocent memory space in the Internet.

Well folks, this is to announce we will be opening the forum come next Monday. We have the Mods, AWA and yours truly running around getting used to this new design and getting ready to welcome all of those who want to participate.

The main rule of the forum will be  (drum roll please) Don’t be a dick.

There is a set of short rules and another one that is long as heck, please read both and then get your feet wet and start to post and mess around.

That is all for now.

I saw several news articles on possible cabinet picks for the Biden administration.

Holy shit.  It is a list of all the worst people, including some old Obama stooges, to ever work in the DC swamp.

From the New York Times:

Who Are Contenders for Biden’s Cabinet?

Amy Klobuchar: Ag Secretary or Attorney General.

Tammy Duckworth: possible Sec Def.  She continued to push the lie about Russian bounties on US troops after it was repeatedly debunked, in order to get Trump.

Michele Flournoy: deputy assistant secretary of defense, she serves on the board of the defense contractor Booz Allen Hamilton, which means more war for profit.

Lily Eskelen-Garcia: possible Education Secretary.  Former president of the National Education Association, she cares more about the teacher’s union than the students.

Randi Weingarten: other Education Secretary candidate.  President of the American Federation of Teachers, a labor union that hates children and holds them hostage for money.

Jay Inslee: possible Energy Secretary.  Famous for his plan to close U.S. coal plants by 2030 and reach net-zero emissions by 2045.  He will cause your power bill to exceed your mortgage, gas to go to $10 per gallon, and rolling blackouts across the United States.  He will be the death of the American economy.

Ernest Moniz: possible Energy Secretary.  He played a critical role in negotiating technical details of the Iran nuclear deal.  He facilitated Iran to develop a nuclear weapon.

Vivek Murthy: possible Surgeon General or Secretary of Health and Human Services.  He was Obama’s surgeon general.  He was totally unqualified, having done no medical research, taught at no medical schools, managed no hospitals, and had barely practiced medicine.  He was selected to be Surgeon General because he founded a PAC, Doctors for Obama, and was rewarded for his politicking in a lab coat.  He is also an advocate for using the term “health crisis” to push gun control.

Val Demings: possible DHS Secretary.  Congresswoman and former Orlando Police Chief.  Top Cop of the murder capital of Florida.  I’m sure Orlando elected her to Congress so that she could fail upward and they could put someone less awful in as police chief.

Xavier Becerra: possible AG.  We all know who this anti-gun fuck-nut is.

Doug Jones: possible high ranking DOJ official but not AG.  We just kicked his ass out of Alabama.  Kimber, Remington, and Styer all in Alabama and he pushed gun control and wanting to eliminate the PLCAA.  Fuck this guy.

Sally Yates: possible high ranking DOJ official.  She led the malicious attack on General Flynn using entirely fictitious evidence.  She is a corrupt political agent.

Susan Rice: high ranking official in the State Department.  We know what she did, blamed the Benghazi attack on a video and unmasked people for speaking up against Obama.  A real piece of shit.

Eric Garcetti: head of DOT.  Former Mayor of LA, home to the worst traffic in the United States.  But don’t worry, while you are going nowhere slowly on mandatory public transportation, your bus will run on clean, renewable energy.

Elizabeth Warren: possible Treasury Secretary.  She will figure out how to reach into your savings and 401(k) to get at all that money you selfishly put away and are hoarding from the government.

Pete Buttigieg: possible head of the VA or UN Ambassador.  McKinsey & Co. stooge, who despite being as privileged as a human being can be, managed to elevate himself to the status of an oppressed victim because he’s gay.

Also from the New York Times:

Progressives’ Wish List for Biden Starts With Warren and Sanders

Two prominent progressive groups, the Sunrise Movement and Justice Democrats, on Wednesday urged President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. to name left-leaning allies including Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders to top government posts, firing an opening salvo in the left’s campaign to exert influence over Mr. Biden’s agenda.

The public appeals from the Sunrise Movement, a group of young climate organizers, and Justice Democrats, a grass-roots organization that has helped elect people like Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, signal the beginning of the left’s intense efforts to pressure Mr. Biden over the makeup of his executive branch and his administration’s immediate priorities.

She Guevera is trying to broker herself into being the power behind the throne.

Ms. Warren and Mr. Sanders are both said to be interested in the jobs. But appointing them to top government posts would be complicated by the fact that the states they represent, Massachusetts and Vermont, are led by Republican governors, and Democrats would want to make sure that any replacements would caucus with them to keep the balance of the Senate intact.

Also on the groups’ list are:

• • • Representative Barbara Lee of California for secretary of state
    • Keith Ellison, the attorney general of Minnesota, for attorney general
    • Representative Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, one of the four congresswomen known as the Squad, for secretary of housing and urban development
    • Representative Pramila Jayapal of Washington, a co-chairwoman of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, for secretary of health and human services

That’s bad, very bad.  But it gets worse.

The Radical Left is telling Biden that he owes them for getting out the youth vote.  They have his old, wrinkly balls in a vice.  The Squad and their allies are going to try and muscle Biden into filling his cabinet with people they want.

From the New York Daily News:

AOC asks Twitter to help pick a ‘dream cabinet’ for President-elect Joe Biden. Here’s what she got.

“Put Ilhan Omar in charge of Homeland Security, if that has to exist,” wrote Twitter user K.C. Sinclair. “She will keep those babies safe and focus on the real threat of white supremacy.”

That user also wanted to see fellow “Squad” members Rashida Tlaib and Ayana Pressley in AOC’s hypothetical “Dream Cabinet.”

The Department of Homeland Security was created post 9/11 to put intelligence and law enforcement all under one roof so that disparate bits of information wouldn’t be overlooked again to prevent another 9/11.

It would be the zenith in Progressive actions to then make the DHS Secretary a radical Islamist and 9/11 apologist.

Sinclair recommended Tlaib (D-Mich.) to head the Department of Justice, while Pressley (D-Mass.) would handle Health and Human Services in her best-case scenario.

Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren’s name came up several times and for a handful of positions.

“Elizabeth Warren and several Elizabeth Warren clones,” comedian Ashley Nicole Black suggested to fill Biden’s cabinet.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who one Twitter user wanted to see as the next Secretary of Defense. Others saw Sanders taking on an economics role.

Projections and demands put some of the most maliciously corrupt and aggressively Progressive swam monsters to ever serve in DC into the Biden Cabinet.

At the very best, it will be business as usual under the Obama Administration.  It will most likely be much worse than that.

From CBS News:

Palestinians hope for “destructive policies of Trump to totally stop

Jordan’s King Abdullah II was quick to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden after the race was called by CBS News and other major media outlets on Saturday.

“I look forward to working with you on further advancing the solid historic partnership between Jordan and the United States,” he said in a Tweet.

That “historic partnership” has been strained in recent years. Jordan opposed the Middle East peace plan offered by the Trump administration, as well as its decision to freeze U.S. contributions to UNRWA, the United Nations agency that helps Palestinian refugees, of whom Jordan hosts about 2 million — more than any other nation.

Muasher said he believes, however, that while the Middle East may rank low on the new administration’s priority list, “a Biden administration is better for Jordan.”

“What we will see immediately is the ditching of the Trump plan and probably the restoration of aid to UNRWA and restarting contacts with the Palestinians.

So Biden is going to restore the Palestinian Authority Martyr’s Fund, which pays money to the families of terrorists who die attacking Israel.  This is why Trump cut aid to them in the first place.

Trump scored major peace deals between Israel and other states in the region.

Biden is going to go back to the anti-Semitic view of Middle East peace that “all problems stem from the way the Israelis bully the poor oppressed Palestinians.”  That was Obama’s guiding thesis and all we saw was war and violence.

If Biden is sworn in, he’s going to coddle terrorists, bully Israel, and set the Middle East on fire again.

Rule of thumb, the guy that the Palestinians want to be President should be the furthest guy from the office.  The guy that the Palesitains hate is the guy that should be in charge.

From CNBC:

Biden Covid advisor says U.S. lockdown of 4 to 6 weeks could control pandemic and revive economy

Shutting down businesses and paying people for lost wages for four to six weeks could help keep the coronavirus pandemic in check and get the economy on track until a vaccine is approved and distributed, said Dr. Michael Osterholm, a coronavirus advisor to President-elect Joe Biden.

Osterholm, who serves as director of the Center of Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, said earlier this week that the country is headed toward “Covid hell.” Cases are rising as more people grow tired of wearing masks and social distancing, suffering from so-called “pandemic fatigue,” he said Wednesday. Colder weather is also driving people indoors where the virus can spread more easily.

A nationwide lockdown would drive the number of new cases and hospitalizations down to manageable levels while the world awaits a vaccine, he told Yahoo Finance on Wednesday.

What the fuck is this guy talking about.

We saw COVID hell, it was NYC at the beginning of this year.  The disease is far more manageable now and the death rate is much lower than it was in March.

On top of this, Pfizer announced that it had a vaccine that was 90% effective and is being fast-tracked for approval.

What will a four to six-week lockdown do right as a vaccine is supposed to start rolling out?

Kill off the last of the small businesses that survived the first lockdown and all the ham-fisted fuckery since then.

Biden and his advisors are pushing LOCKDOWN! despite evidence that a lockdown is unnecessary and does more damage in the long run.

Small business owners, especially restaurants and brick-and-mortar shops have resisted the lockdowns from the beginning.  Trump has not been the lockdown dictator that the Left wants him to be, and more recently he has been a voice for opening the economy back up.

Biden wants to punish the lockdown resisters and force them to lock down with the heavy boot of federal government.

This isn’t a matter of science, this is a matter of subjugating the Kulaks.
