Walk not run

Don't not look back lest you sprint in terror to the present

CNBC: What are you hearing will happen if dockworkers strike and it goes longer than a week? Harris-Biden Commerce Sec. Gina Raimondo: "I have not been very focused on that." What is she focused on? That is her job.

And the President?

REPORTER: "Any comment on the strikes in Yemen, Mr. President!?"

BIDEN (or whatever's left of him): "I've spoken to both sides. They gotta settle the strike. I'm supporting the collective bargaining effort. I think they'll settle the strike." Co-President Jill walks away. https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1840575813986423293?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1840575813986423293%7Ctwgr%5Ea497a5ddd150735af194f9dfb3d621d40439c409%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zerohedge.com%2Fmarkets%2Ftime-running-out-us-port-strike-could-begin-tuesday-goldman-finds-highly-exposed-retailers

Reporter: Do you have a few words for the victims of the devastation?

Joe Biden: Yes. As a matter of fact, we’re trying to get the exact number. My FEMA advisors on the ground in Florida right now. There’s a distinction between the numbers that FEMA’s used and the ones that are used by the locals. So it really is amazing. You saw the photographs. It’s stunning. It’s unbelievable. It really is. It really is. So many…

Reporter: It’s such a wide area. (The Southeastern United States was plunged into devastation after Category 4 Hurricane Helene, the strongest hurricane to ever strike Florida’s Big Bend region, unleashed catastrophic destruction across six states.)

Joe Biden: We’ve given them all… Everything that we have, we’re on the ground ahead of time. So we’re working hard.

Female reporter: Are there any more resources the federal government could be giving them?

Joe Biden: No, we’ve given them… We have pre-planned a significant amount of it, even though they didn’t ask for it yet. They hadn’t asked for it yet.

The U.S. Congress has appropriated approximately $174.2 billion in supplemental funding for the U.S. response to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine since February 2022. This includes security, direct budget, development, and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine; security assistance for NATO allies and other partner nations; funding to support enhanced U.S. military presence and activity in Europe; and replenishment of U.S. military stocks transferred to the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF). This funding was enacted through five supplemental appropriations acts.

“Bourgeois are by nature people who hate and destroy heavens. When they see a beautiful site, they have no more pressing dream than to cut the trees, dry up the springs, build streets, shops and urinals. They call this ceasing a business opportunity.”
