Looks like many of your former 'supporters' are already taking appropriate action of their own, Joe.

To what is Shotgun Joe referring?? The low-life phukktard that slapped the 15-year old for wearing a MAGA hat??

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil...

Joe keeps rolling on

Biden Accuses Sanders Of Not Being Enough Of A Gun Grabber

Things are getting testy out in Nevada as we crash headlong toward caucus day. And with Joe Biden seeing his previous lead in the polls slipping away to Bernie Sanders, he has to find a way to draw a distinction and deflate some of the Democratic Socialist’s momentum. That means breaking out the oppo folder and finding some of Bernie’s old votes to throw in his face. This weekend Uncle Joe reached all the way back to 2005 when Sanders was still in the House of Representatives, bringing up his vote in favor of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA). That’s the law that protects firearms manufacturers from frivolous lawsuits.

Biden talked about “carnage in our streets” and pledged to help overturn the law so manufacturers can be sued out of business. And then, without mentioning the Vermont Senator by name, he reminded the audience that “some… people” running for the nomination helped pass the bill

“When I’m the president, we’ll take them on, remove the immunity and allow those parents who are trying now to sue for the pain and mayhem they have caused,” Biden said on stage at the Tropicana casino-resort. The resort sits adjacent to the grounds where a gunman in 2017 unleashed a torrent of gunfire on a country music festival—an incident that only Biden referred to Saturday night.

Biden, after decrying “carnage in our streets” and the anguish of families whose loved ones were killed in gun violence, said he “will not rest until they’re able to sue the gun manufacturers and get a ban on assault weapons.”

Biden didn’t cite Sanders by name when referring to a 2005 federal law that shields gun makers from liability in most crimes, but said, “some of the people running for office voted for that exemption.”

It’s true that Sanders voted in favor of the PLCAA (in a rare moment of common sense) and Biden voted against it in the Senate. But keep in mind that this isn’t really a gun control issue unless you believe that making guns less available by bankrupting the companies who make them falls into that category. Of course, it also makes guns less available to lawful gun owners who are able to pass background checks. What happened to Joe’s famous respect for the law-abiding?

Somehow I don’t think a promise to repeal the PLCAA is going to go over as well as Biden seems to believe, even in the Democratic primary

Of 12,278 murders committed in the United States in 2018, 235 were committed using rifles

And that rifles of all types, not just the scary looking ones.

By contrast, 1,545 were killed by someone using “knives or cutting instruments.”

Another 431 were murdered through the use of “blunt objects” including baseball bats and hammers. Both of these categories accounted for far more “carnage in our streets” the rifles.

This is a fruitless line of attack and Sanders has long since retracted his support for the PLCAA. And Joe Biden is probably going after the wrong competitor anyway. He and Sanders fish from different pools of voters in the primary. If he’s losing ground to Bernie Sanders it’s because some of his most likely supporters are being drawn away by Buttigieg and Klobuchar. And more recently, you can add Bloomberg to that list. If Joe wants to get his momentum back and start challenging Sanders he should probably be trying to consolidate the more moderate voters under his flag and leave the socialist vote to Bernie.

And, for that, Sanders had earned a degree of respect from me. He even continued his support for the law partway into the 2016 Democrat Presidential primary. Then he flipped on it.

Can't be a good leftist if you support the right of the people you claim to represent defending themselves, dontjaknow.

This election is unlike any election I can remember. DEMs are totally basing their arguments on painting Donald Trump as a racial bigot.

They ignore the benefits that have come to All Americans because of the Trump administration.

Where the fuck are all these white supremacists? I have a pretty diverse set of friends and deal with lots of different people, however I’ve never seen or heard of these white supremacists. There’s gotta be like 14 in the whole country and they act like half the population is neo nazis and the other half are trannies.

FBI Raids Business Tied To James Biden Influence-Peddling

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...n-influence-peddling

The FBI raided the home of a CEO of a bankrupt hospital chain last month along with one of its Pennsylvania hospitals central to influence-peddling accusations against Joe Biden's brother, James, according to RealClearInvestigations.

The CEO, Grant White, was accused in a Kentucky bankruptcy court filing by the trustee of having "grossly mismanaged" Florida-based Americore holdings, which acquires and manages rural hospitals. According to the filing, White "has not operated the hospitals in a manner that is consistent with public safety," and "improperly siphoned money from the Debtors for his personal benefit."

In December, the firm declared bankruptcy. On January 29, the FBI raided White's home, and one of Americore's hospitals - Ellwood City Medical Center, the next day. One week later, the Kentucky court granted a motion to remove White as CEO.

The Biden connection

Last Summer, White and James Biden were accused of fraud in a lawsuit, along with Biden's partner, hedge fund manager Michael Lewitt.

The lawsuit, filed by Tennessee businessman Michael Frey and his partner Dr. Mohannad Azzam, owners of Diverse Medical Management, also named Amer Rustom, another investor in Americore along with Biden and Lewitt.

The lawsuit alleges that James Biden had a prominent role in the company. One exhibit filed in the lawsuit is a photograph of an Americore business card that Biden reportedly handed out listing him as a “principal” in the company.

Frey alleges that when Diverse Medical Management and Americore were in talks to merge, Jim Biden promised to exploit his brother’s political influence as vice president to attract international investors and make the venture successful. -RCI

"Jim [Biden] told me. Don’t worry every time someone threatens to sue you you’re with us now nobody is gonna touch you," Lewitt allegedly bragged over a text message to Frey, who says he was worried about legal liability to his firm over an acquisition.

"It was Frey’s understanding that Lewitt was implying that DMM [Diverse Medical Management] was 'protected' because of Jim Biden’s connections."

The lawsuit also alleges that after failing to deliver on several promises made to Frey and Azzam, Biden took control of their dealings with Americore. “Biden instructed that Plaintiffs should no longer speak with Americore and White, but instead should deal exclusively with the Investor Defendants and their respective agents going forward, who would ensure that Plaintiffs’ model would find its way into hospitals and thrive,” the lawsuit says. -RCI

Biden and the other defendants are accused of pushing Frey and Azzam to take out loans for the purchase of failing rural hospitals they wanted to revive - based on assurances that they would be paid back when Biden helped secure investments from one of Turkey's largest conglomerates, Dogan Holding.

According to the lawsuit, Biden inadvertently texted Frey and revealed his plans to take over Diverse Medical Management and cut out Frey and Azzam.

"We can wrap [Americore] into Frey’s entity further diluting them both in the process? After we take control of both. Just a thought. We must have complete control, too many moving pieces. Jim," the text reportedly read.

Prior to filing their lawsuit, Diverse Medical Management says it was unable to make payroll.

A Biden spokesman disputed the claims last August, saying "It is nothing more than a cynical attempt to manipulate the press by taking advantage of Jim Biden’s public profile as the brother of a presidential candidate."



The raids were not the first time the FBI has investigated matters related to Americore. It got involved last August when, soon after the lawsuit was filed, Frey received an envelope at his home containing a thinly veiled threat. “Inside the envelope was what appeared to be blood-stained currency from a Middle Eastern country commonly known as a haven for terror groups and a 'torture ticket' — a voucher for the infliction of torture,” according to Knox News, which reviewed the contents of the envelope. -RCI

James was a frequent guest at the White House when Joe was Vice President and scored invites to important state functions which often "dovetailed with his overseas business dealings," such as the case of construction management firm subsidiary HillStone International, according to journalist Peter Schweizer.

On November 4, 2010, according to White House visitors’ logs, Justice visited the White House and met with Biden adviser Michele Smith in the Office of the Vice President.

Less than three weeks later, HillStone announced that James Biden would be joining the firm as an executive vice president. James appeared to have little or no background in housing construction, but that did not seem to matter to HillStone. -Peter Schweizer, via NY Post

According to Fox Business's Charlie Gasparino in 2012, HillStone's Iraq project was expected to "generate $1.5 billion in revenues over the next three years," more than tripling their revenue.

We can only imagine how disappointed James and the rest of the Biden brothers are at Joe's sagging poll numbers.

I keep opening this thread wondering whether the new post is another astounding gaffe or Biden finally suspending his campaign. I suspect the latter isn’t far off, but in the meantime, he truly is the gift that keeps giving.

Biden promised to expand immigration to the U.S. if elected president.

“We should be able to increase, to three million people, the people who could come for family reunification. Period, period, period, period.”

He called the idea that the U.S. could not “reunite” more families “absolutely bizarre.”

You'd think that Biden would know enough by now to stay away from hard numbers. Three million is not nearly enough for half of the voters, and three million too many for the rest.

Uhmmm, is she saying that Biden won't have to learn on the job, or did she miss a question mark in the course of saying that everyone has to learn on the job? Somehow I don't recall O giving Biden all that much responsibility.
