What we really need is President Biden. This is all happening thanks to him. There’s some hope that Harris would continue his policies if elected, but there are strong rumours that some donors are supporting her with the agreement that if she wins she gets rid of Lina Khan.

No on both counts. Don’t give him credit for other people’s work.
He might have been the final one to sign off on them, but cabinet appointments are decided by committee and I guarantee you that the former Senator of the most corporation-friendly state of them all wasn’t the one who suggested Lina Khan OR Lauren McFerran at the NLRB.
his policies
Again, it’s not HIS policies. Stop giving the old man with 900 years of conservative policies the credit for the stellar work of young women many times as progressive and in touch with the realities of regular people as him.
Biden was a moderate conservative democrat in congress.
Fixed it for you
As president, he’s been far more progressive than Obama
First of all: very low bar. Second of all no, he’s been even more conservative than Obama, like he’s always been.
Probably the most progressive on workers rights since FDR.
With all due respect, which is very little at this point, FUCK OFF with that bullshit!
The progress on worker’s rights have been achieved by young progressives appointed IN SPITE OF Biden being a conservative mentally stuck in the early 90s, at the latest.
To mention Biden in the same sentence as FDR is an affront to every worker in the world.
he chose them.
No. Other people chose them and had to convince him to sign off on them
Joe Biden always has been, is, and always will be on the side of corporations against workers.
Atleast read up about his presidency before making stuff up.
I’ve been keeping up enough to know more than what little is on Wikipedia, but thanks for the extra helping of unearned condescension, I guess 🙄
I considered blocking you the other day when you were defending the Venezeulan dictator
I did no such thing. Questioning the motives and sincerity of US dealings with regards to ANY South American country is just common sense and at no point while doing so did I express any support for the likely election fraud and government overreach of the demagogue Maduro.
given you just told me to fuck off, I think I will now.
Aww, was I being too rough on your delicate sensibilities as you were spreading unoriginal disinformation straight from the party glossary? I’m SOOO sorry! 😫
This is yet another reason we need President Harris.
Trump will let Google get away with it.

This is not going to be over by November. That’s why we need Harris.

You can make up all the arguments you want.

Cabinet choices matter, and he chose them.
Nah, you’re doing plenty of that for both of us.

Good riddance.
It’s not like she’s doing these things behind his back.
The progressive wing of the party might have pushed him into accepting her appointment, but he still appointed her and she’s kicking ass.
Nope, but he IS doing it without his help, so he’s not due any of the credit.
Yes, SHE is kicking ass based on HER work and HER policy and enforcement choices, not his.
Absent pressure from the progressive wing og the party, he would have chosen someone older and more palatable to his owner donors.
He does NOT deserve credit for her work just because he relented to the pressure from people more pro worker than himself.
He’s her boss and he appointed her, he does deserve credit for selecting her and sticking with her.
And he’s her boss, so he deserves credit for hiring her and backing her.
Other people selected her in spite of him and he relented and he’s refrained from firing someone without cause.
Neither of those are achievements and just because he’s the boss doesn’t mean that he gets to take credit for HER work.
Nope, see above.
Do you have any source on him actively backing her, beyond just not firing her without cause?
Yes, she’s his subordinate
That’s not actively backing her. You have a very distorted view of the relationship between a boss and an employee.
Hiring her for a job she’s qualified for on the advice of others and then not firing her is a passive lack of opposition at best, NOT active support.
