Comments: Also the whole "This week is Infrastructure Week" became a running joke. I said that before as far as economy, initiatives and job creation, the Biden admin was being compared to FDR
Comments: Happy Birthday Farzad! I tried to google that last accomplishment you listed. This is lol. trump "Initiative to Combat Veteran Homelessness" (2019) - Google Search Shahin, that Steve Rattner guy always has the best charts on Morning Joe. I have to say that what I admire the most about Kamala Harris is that here is a very capable person who has obviously held back for 3.5 years and not sought the limelight and done her job. That shows a lot of character and no wonder the party was so quick to line up behind her.
Comments: Happy BD Farzad! And good to see Ali P.

Comments: Hi folks, hope everyone is doing well! I visited the site a couple of times during the Olympics to check for results and/or videos of athletes, and was surprised to see political discussions! Glad to see that politics are now allowed on this site! With all the censorship that we've had to endure since covid, this was refreshing to see. Keep up the discussions as political awakening is the most important aspect of our lives today. Cheers! :-)
Comments: Thanks bud... love you
Comments: Farzad: You are blaming Harris for the way inflation rate is being calculated? It is been done the same way during republican or democratic admin. The infliation started going up from the covid time (Trump/ Biden). I am just reporting the numbers. Trump spent his entire time talking about immigration and the famous wall and he will force Mexico to pay for it. Result after 4 years: Zilch Trump promised to bring back jobs to USA. Results: Zilch Trump talked about stock market: Results: Average for couple years, and poor the rest. Trump promised to get rid of affordable act. Result: Zilch Trump promised to fight with China. By fighting, he meant placing heavy tarrfis on China's product, which only made those product more expensive. In response, China boycotted American agriculture products, which forced US government to compensate the farmers. One of the most stupid decisions by any US governments in memory. Biden/ Harris ruled for 4 years starting with Covid and during couple of deadly wars, but still managed to keep the economy steady, while advancing on health care/drugs. It made a historical chip acts which will see its benefits in short term. US is leading the world in every industry you can name it. What else did you expect to achieve during this challenging time? Can you name me one thing that Trump did during his 4 years?
Comments: Farzad: Happy birthday my friend
Comments: I always thought US aid was a lot more that Euro
Comments: Yes saeed I heard all of that same BS in 2016 and nothing happened. The only Thing happened was the Ukraine war paused, capital moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, Abraham accord which no one could believe happened. So you don't need to tell me. I saw it. Vote for what you think is right. I do the same. Inflation 2%? So your expenses up is only 2% since last admin? Great. My insurances are up 50%, car insurance in California up almost 100%. Gas prices up 50%. Grocery pricing up 30% and my expenses are up an average of 35%. Good for you. Up only 2% for you. That is great . That's unbelievable. 👍 Again vote for what's to your benefit.
