Biden wasn't telling those graduates that they had to work ten times harder. His actual line was "What is democracy if you have to be 10 times better than anyone else to get a fair shot?"

[...]

"Instead of forcing you to prove you’re 10 times better, we’re breaking down doors so you have 100 times more opportunities: good-paying jobs you can raise a family on in your neighborhood — (applause); capital to start small business and loans to buy homes; health insurance, prescriptions drugs, housing that’s more affordable and accessible."

No matter how bad the guy was, there's no harm in showing some respect for a dead Iranian president. The US Navy even gave Osama Bin Laden a respectful burial at sea.

And when Trump dies, he'll undoubtedly get the customary honors of an ex-president. They won't bury him on a golf course--unless he makes that arrangement with his family.

"Drill baby drill" won't make America independent of the oil market; that's not how it works. Oil is sold on an international market, so no matter how much the US drills and sells, the price of oil is still whatever the market will bear, and the US oil companies will never give up their rights to sell to the highest bidders.

If you want energy independence, (and we already have it on most levels) we'll have to expand the use of wind, solar, hydro, nuclear and everything else where appropriate.

Don't know how you missed it. Trump's crimes were real, and his defense is stupid. His lawyers in NYC just rested their case after their star witness reversed himself and then got aggressive with the judge. The defense's witness! The prosecution painstakingly laid out all the ways Trump broke the law in those 34 counts and all Trump could do was cry about it each afternoon and then refuse to testify after promising he would. That's not corruption from the D.A.

Also, Biden isn't doing anything nefarious to the country. Upholding law and order, respecting public servants and law enforcement, supporting allies and not supporting Russia's land grab are all good things. Go ahead and embrace Trump if you like, but repeating his lies here doesn't make you look smart.

With any luck, Trump will see at least a little jail time for his criminality, and if justice is served, he'll spend the rest of his life in jail after paying $billions in damages.

Good profile. A better photo would zoom in on your face and eyes, but you did a good job describing what you're about.

Maybe you could upload a "headshot" photo to better show your face and eyes for people viewing on the website or on smaller screens. Also, it's good that you added to the headline, but could be shortened to be better. You have "Hi...i'm seeking to come together with a bubbly woman someone who really wants to enjoy life." To keep from hiding the extra text, you could shorten it to "Seeking a bubbly woman to enjoy life together"

Anyway, the women viewing on the app will easily see that you're a good-looking guy, and your intentions are good, so you should do alright. But for the missing headshot and lengthy headline, I rate it 8/10.

Good luck!

It's a good profile. The photo is well-lighted and you did a pretty good job of describing yourself, but you didn't describe "the right man." If you know what kind of man you want, you could share that.

A better photo would be one that clearly shows your face and eyes. Your photo has good lighting and shows your body shape, which is also good, but maybe upload another photo more of your head and shoulders for people viewing on the web site, and see your face in the tiny thumbnail photos. Maybe take a selfie with the camera around eye level where you don't look so bored.

Also, you could fill in the headline with something more descriptive. It shows up in search results, to help you say more, quickly.

Overall, it's a good profile, and it's clear you're an attractive young woman. You should do alright, but for the default headline and the blurb and photo that could be better, I rate it 8/10.

Good luck!

So the profile's just a couple photos and you selected some interests. Seems lacking.

Maybe fill in the biographical information. I don't know the lesbian perspective, but I imagine people still want to read about what you're about, but you just selected a few boxes and uploaded some photos.

At least you dressed neatly and you seem well-groomed and attractive. And lots of people don't even read the profiles, so you will probably do alright. But for a profile that's almost empty, I can only rate it 5/10.

Good luck!

The photos look a bit dark & depressing, with the 2nd & 3rd pics giving psychotic vibes. I guess it's a style thing or an artistic choice that I missed, but for a dating site profile, you could do better with brighter, sharper images where you look at least a little cheerful and more approachable. Although, it might work for those women looking for a guy to cheer up.

Also, the headline is a bit too long and mirrors what's said in the blurb. Maybe cut that down a bit.

Otherwise, you seem like a good-looking guy and you did a really good job describing yourself and whom you seek. Good luck!

Maybe you missed it, but Comey's report didn't say 110 emails had classification markings. Only that 110 emails were found to have classified information. Probably mentioned sensitive information. Also, the US government has a completely separate system for sending classified information, not even connected to the Internet, so it's weird that any emails would have a classification mark, unless someone decided to type "SECRET" or whatever into the email, which isn't how document classification works. Maybe that's another reasons why Comey didn't recommend charges.

If the economy is so terrible, then why is Trump trying to take credit for it?

https://thehill.com/homenews/4435862-trump-claims-credit-record-stock-market-biden/

But of course, you're going to get it wrong if you listen to what Trump says.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/14/politics/fact-check-trump-claims-about-biden-economy/index.html

You can read Comey's report on Hillary's email investigation. A couple pages long and easy to read.

https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/statement-by-fbi-director-james-b-comey-on-the-investigation-of-secretary-hillary-clinton2019s-use-of-a-personal-e-mail-system

There were no charges for Hillary or anybody else because the facts didn't support charges. And Comey never said that others could and would be charged. He left it to DOJ to make those decisions and they declined, too. Not two-tiered justice. At worst Comey said that things were discussed that should've been known to be inappropriate to discuss in an unsecured system. He didn't even say whether Clinton wrote the classified information, so she could have simply been replying to someone else's message that also included some classified topic. Either way, the relevant laws require intention or gross negligence resulting in exposing classified information. Didn't happen.

Not bound by Trump? Maybe try to tell that to all the attorney generals Trump fired.

Clinton's emails are not government property. She was only Secretary of State and not President, so when she wrote, sent, received or deleted emails, it's not subject to the Presidential Records Act, and until subpoenaed, there was no legal requirement to even keep them. She got the idea of a personal email server from Colin Powell, who advised her it would be easier to use than the government system, and as a veteran, myself, I can confirm that the government email system totally, royally sucked in those years. But if you can point to a law on the books that said otherwise, at that time, then I would be happy to be proven wrong, especially since nobody can even correctly point to a law that Hillary broke with regard to her emails.

Good luck.

Sorry, did you even watch the video?

Biden is just stuck between the USA's commitments to our allies and Israel's awful handling of their war with Hamas. Despite their war crimes and attempted genocide, the US still needs to support them, so this administration is trying to work out a solution to help Gaza and Israel, but Netanyahu isn't making it easy. He's a real jerk. It's not like The Donald could fix that mess, but at least Joe is trying.

Seems stupid to blow up the national debt even more than Trump did. And abortion is a major issue for suburban women whom Trump needs more than ever before.

https://www.brookings.edu/articles/abortion-and-the-2024-election-there-is-no-easy-way-out-for-republicans/

With the Trump tax cuts, there was probably little Biden could do to stop inflation from shooting up. Record corporate profits and lowest taxes ever for shipping jobs overseas. Even with Congress doing nothing about it, the Administration as brought inflation back down to around 3%. And it's not like Trump has a plan to deal with inflation. And while the national debt is soaring, all Republicans have is tax cuts. Mostly for corporations and the top 1%. What's going to really kick Republican butts is their stance on abortion and abiding Trump's crimes.

That's funny, because Hillary's email server was not a government asset. It was a private server she kept in her home, so even if she had taken an axe to the server, there would've been no destruction of government property. I suspect you got your information from some unhinged radical bloggers. And as for Clinton & Biden not getting charged because their position, I'd refer you to the fact that they were investigated by House Republicans and Trump's DOJ. No friends there. What's your excuse for that?

Lastly, I haven't seen anything to indicate that Senator Menendez or Rep Cuellar will get extra help from Democrats on their legal problems.

It's easier to fake a YouTube video than government statistics.

Again, France's Macron never said he would deploy French troops to Ukraine, but simply said he would not "take it off the table."

Russia's decision to conduct nuclear drills (not nuclear tests--a whole other thing) has no bearing on Macron's clarification that France is not at war with Russia. But consider the source of the above video. Indian news channels are over sensational with their headlines to get attention. To believe them you'd have to think China is about to invade India and Russia.

While the 1994 crime bill had severe problems, it was drafted with input from the African American community and good intentions. Gang and drug crime at the time was a huge concern, as was prison overcrowding. Generally the Democrats wanted more crime prevention programs and Republicans wanted harsher penalties.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/fact-check-why-are-trump-democrats-talking-about-1994-crime-n1010691

Trump's "First Step" Act was a product of the decades of learning since the 1994 crime law, so sure, but it's not like Trump wrote that bill, and if it was such a success, why isn't he talking about it?

Michelle Obama is not going to run for President. She may be popular among Democrats, but she's said whenever asked that she's not running and not interested. Given she has no committees or agents working the process, and already makes $millions selling books and speeches, she's clearly not going to run. Gavin Newsom, however, has obviously been into being president since forever, and is just plotting his course.
