"And this popped into my hands. And I was frustrated, like all of America watching that Biden story: the laptop story being buried, continually buried — except for people like [host Jesse Watters] that brought it forward. So when it came into my hands, I was like Peter Finch in ‘Network’ — I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore, as the American people are."
Davi said the film, like many other projects from the Irish-American documentarians behind it, was funded through crowd-sourcing.

So obviously the story they wanna tell is that the scandalous laptop “ruins everything” and that Joe loses as a result, which obviously didn’t happen, so they’re gonna have to lean into the whole voter fraud angle and I’m legitimately curious how hard they’re gonna do it

As a proud pro-labor President, I am reluctant to override the ratification procedures and the views of those who voted against the agreement. BUT!
I share workers’ concern about the inability to take leave to recover from illness or care for a sick family member. No one should have to choose between their job and their health – or the health of their children. I have pressed legislation and proposals to advance the cause of paid leave in my two years in office, and will continue to do so. Every other developed country in the world has such protections for its workers. BUT!

Did Biden have relative freedom (or the benefit of the doubt) in his appointments and executive actions, and did he use that power well? Was he influenced (via his inner circle appointments) by his experience as VP? Or does it say more about his character?
