If Bill Maher says Biden will lose, then Biden will definitely win.
Also, bring back the old Bill Maher please.
He would hate this one like only Bill Maher can.
Plus, if the big negative thing is that you are too old while you are breaking records at the same time? Shrug.
@Acyn I cant believe the system is set up where one Senator can cause this kind of log jam with no work around, like 2/3rds of Senators overriding his obstruction.
Why President Biden in 2024? @RonaldKlain said it best:
"The president has delivered the largest economic recovery plan since Roosevelt, the largest infrastructure plan since Eisenhower, the most judges confirmed since Kennedy, the second-largest healthcare bill since Johnson, and the largest climate change bill in history.”
Put simply, President Biden has had the best first term of any president in modern history.
Character matters. Experience matters. Results matter. That's why we support @POTUS@JoeBiden. It's just that simple. 🇺🇸
Here is George Clooney response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite."
"Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years.
So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable.
People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of “coastal elites” living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble?
He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesn’t run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people!
When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction.
He’s never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say “Hollywood elite.” Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!"

@bluezharp What a BEAST!
Such a loss .. i’m so very thankful I had the chance to witness his mastery live a few times in his last years.
Also kicking myself for not buying those tickets on his last tour, the one with Johnny Depp. But JD was a deal breaker for me. 🤦🏼♂️

Notice how essentially nobody in Washington asks “if we can afford” an $886 billion defense budget?
No, we only hear that when we need health care, or student debt relief, or climate action, or paid family leave, or universal pre-K, or child-poverty relief.

Pale Blue Dot is a photo of Earth that was taken by the Voyager 1 space probe in 1990 from a distance of about 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) as it was leaving our solar system. This is what Carl Sagan said about the photo:
"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor, and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”
Singer Etta James (January 25, 1938–January 20, 2012) performing her song "I'd Rather Go Blind" at the Montreux Jazz Festival on July 11, 1975. Sadly, in the mid-1960s to early 1970s, addiction, severe physical abuse, and incarceration affected her personal and professional lives, but despite adversity, she continued to make music. At 37, Etta James made a musical comeback; the Montreux Jazz Festival was her first appearance.
