xp1337 05/24/21 10:31:45 PM #445:	But he has done things? Reversed Trump's ban on transgender members in the military. Has made major progress on the children held by ICE/DHS at the border. (Again, once the gears of bureaucracy got moving the number went down 75% in a month. It's not done until that number is zero but he has unquestionably got things moving in the right direction.) Ordered that DOJ not renew any contracts with private prisons on the federal level Lowkey he also formed that commission to look into SCOTUS reform (but we all know any action on that is beyond dead on arrival in the Senate) Since the Senate failed to muster the courage to do anything with the filibuster and Manchin and Sinema don't believe in it - Biden did all he could do and ordered that any company that contracts with the federal government have a $15 minimum wage and in the future indexed to CPI. Like, no doubt he hasn't gotten around to everything obviously. And he surely will abandon some of them I'm sure. Just as others will fail to materialize because they require the Senate to actually do something and Manchin or Sinema will fuck it up (in much the same way that, had Sanders won, M4A would be a "lie" because the Senate would fuck it up too) but Biden has 100% done things he has promised and/or done what is in his power to the extent he can when Congress has fucked its end up. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:954265882] in Politics C...
