Biden can pardon Democrat Czeropski’s having anal sex
in a Senate hearing room and watch his numbers soar.
YIKES!
“Biden can pardon Democrat Czeropski’s having anal sex

So, will Bidon’s pardon happen on Christmas Day or Eve?
Betcha Biden rues the day he posed for that pic.
LOL.....good question.
Writer has it wrong. The voters who will vote for Biden are addicted to Mommy Government and that’s what he represents. Nothing Joe does or doesn’t do matters to them as long as he promises a few more goodies are coming, and more important, that no goodies will be taken away.
It’s not just the low-IQ types. Hang around Harvard (my sister-in-law still lives in Cambridge. I left 45 years ago), and you will hear the same pro-Biden BS in the mouths of multi-PhD professors. Even SIL spouts this stuff, because she’s “in the bubble”. Ex-BU-prof herself, never reads anything, listens to NPR, watches PBS, gets her opinions at Starbucks.
Yes, it’s on both sides, left and right.
Difference is if you’re on the right you cannot, without extreme measures, escape the left viewpoint.
If you’re on the left there are so many echo chambers and they all are very effective demonizing to keep their true believers from ever hearing the right.
A few years ago there was some kind of mockumentry (because surely they could not have been serious) that stated that people did not eat breakfast before the 1900s when "Big Ag" began to advertise and they only did that to increase their profits by getting people to eat more.
Please ignore, the books written before then that mention breakfast, that breakfast is eaten around the world, that we have cook books from before that time with recipes that are for breakfast, that we have newspaper articles talking about people who attended "Breakfast" and what they ate and the menus and rule books for workhouses and other charities and prisons that all tell you what you should serve for breakfast.
It is not only a little bit of evidence that they are wrong, there is a crap ton (that is a scientific term for a whole lot) of evidence.
But people who saw the show will look you right in the face and say, "But they showed it on TV so it must have been right".
People are not that bright.
How many people can read for comprehension, think critically, write well, can practice the skill of discernment, etc?
How many people read books, articles, etc that -challenge- their worldview or positions?
I suspect the answer to the questions above is - not as many as we think.
And that results in people just not reading about differing or conflicting viewpoints, or depending on the issue people resorting to name-calling (e.g. "$hot $hills" re: COVID-19). I suppose that's the sign of a lazy or even weak intellect.
I want to read books and listen to speakers that challenge me. The used book section at Barnes & Noble is great for buying books that can help accomplish this. Often the books are unread or read once.
An example of being able to read differing viewpoints and come away with useful insights is AJ Thomas is his Dissent in Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644. He cited a book (What Comes Naturally: Miscegenation Law and the Making of Race in America 19 (2009) by Peggy Pascoe, who was a strong advocate of critical race and gender theory.
AJ Thomas is not an advocate of race or gender theory, but does practice the art of discernment, when he used Pascoe's book to bolster his writing when he started to make the point "The suggestion of petitioners and their amici that antimiscegenation laws are akin to laws defining marriage as between one man and one woman is both offensive and inaccurate..."
