It should be in order starting with Obama's press secretary Jen Psaki. There have been a lot over the ten years and I forget some of them and have forgotten the order. It might also be helpful to point out what their actions were and how it failed. Most of the failures are just not following through. I used to post these on reddit to defuse libs hope for the daddy of the week who was "definitely gonna stop drumf this time" but kept getting not-listening and assurance that this time is different. Maybe people will take a good hard look at the list of a decade of failure at a moment where confidence in the system is at an all time low and it will change some minds finally. Libs love a good Gish Gallop. Too bad so many people had to get hurt in the process.

Here are a few off the top of my head:

Jen Psaki "rang the alarm bells about the incoming admin" (nobody did anything to put up guard rails)

The Epstein stuff (part 1) self explanatory.

Rachael Maddow: swore she had Trump's taxes finally, as if he just had a line item that said "crimes". Huge flop. Lots of people tuned in and it was nothing.

Robert Mueller: Russiagate investigation (flopped, basically exonerated trump in the court of Republican opinion)

Stormy Daniels: told scandalous details of Trump's private life and sued him

Lev Parnas: still really don't know what that was all about. Was he a snitch on his way to jail? Resulted in nothing

Jack Smith: attempted to prosecute Trump for... Stuff. Mishandling documents? (Failed to get anywhere, ran the clock out and was fired. Plus, Biden was caught doing the same shit)

Fauci: tried to point out how the pandemic was handled poorly. Handled it poorly himself

Joseph Robinette Biden: beat trump in an election only to hold the door for him to come back. No guard rails wee installed, and no prosecution of anyone from the previous admin. Carried on Trump's policies and even made some worse. Was a bit corrupt himself so it gave trump people ammo to be like "everyone does it". So much more, but that would be it's own post.

Merrick Garland: slow walked prosecution and ran the clock out. Libs were pissed! There were sure this was it™

Alnur Mussayev: started the "agent Krasnov" stuff with no evidence. Fizzled out.

The Epstein stuff (again)

Pelosi ripping up the speech

Liz Warren taking color coordinated notes during the first impeachment trial

The entire first impeachment trial lol

Makes me think of Nancy pelosi saying they "have plenty of arrows in their quiver" to stop Trump's supreme court pick(s) and being asked if they would remove any of those metaphorical arrows, and she hit us with " good-morning Sunday morning"

The first impeachment trial is laughable looking back, because Trump threatened to withhold aid funds to Ukraine in order to get their help in his 2020 re-election campaign and that's bad. But Biden (under Obama) threatened to withhold aid funds to Ukraine in order to get a prosecutor investigating a Ukrainian company, that his son Hunter was on the board of, fired, and that's a-ok.

dunking on trash nato-pedia articleLmao, reading the wiki page on the "Biden-Ukraine Conspiracy Theory" is like a crash course in double-speak. The first paragraph opens "The Biden–Ukraine conspiracy theory is a series of false allegations that Joe Biden, while he was vice president of the United States, improperly withheld a loan guarantee and took a bribe to pressure Ukraine into firing prosecutor general Viktor Shokin to prevent a corruption investigation of Ukrainian gas company Burisma and to protect his son Hunter Biden, who was on the Burisma board."
Then the second paragraph starts "Joe Biden followed State Department intentions when he withheld the loan guarantee to pressure Ukraine into removing the prosecutor, who was seen as corrupt and failing to clean up Ukrainian corruption, in accordance with the official and bipartisan policy of the United States, the European Union, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund."
So the coercion is cool and good when all the schoolyard bullies agree with it, but when you're uncouth about it, then you deserve to be impeached. Obviously Trump deserved it and much worse, but this is some real "don't believe your lying eyes" shit.

Chronic venous insufficiency might be the liberal hero that finally finishes him.

*inb4 they put him on the Golden Throne so he can rot eternally

[–] OldSoulHippie@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He's going to assume the lotus position and become one of those mummies that have legends about them being still alive in there.

Fuck the JFK eternal flame. It's the Eternal President.

Side note, I'm surprised Trump hasn't ended funding the gas bill for the eternal flame. That would be pretty funny honestly

[–] Carl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It would be very funny but Trump knows that most of the country likes JFK so without a personal reason to make him go against the grain he probably won't do it.

He could do it if RFKjr gets out of pocket like the time he made him eat McDonald's

"Systemic inability to distribute resources from the core to the periphery" really is the liberal's greatest hero

Kamala Harris losing what should have been a slam dunk election because she couldn't distance herself from the unpopular administration she was second in command of
