the average performance in the first year of a Democratic president since their swearing until the end of first year is a gain of +14.2% on average,
compared with
a -1.2%*LOSS* for the GOP.
That, I did not know. Had a general feel for it but didn't know those numbers were so far apart.
Well Baish, it stands as a modern day historical FACT. Disputed only my morons.
Personally, looking forward, I am hoping the GOP can reverse their negative points significantly when they are in office, as that would mean America would benefit greatly.

Biden administration will make free high-quality face masks available to all Americans
Washington (CNN) President Joe Biden on Thursday announced his administration would make "high-quality masks" available to Americans for free, as the US struggles to contain the new surge of the Omicron variant and hospitalizations from Covid-19 reach new highs.
"I know we all wish could finally be done with wearing masks, I get it, but they are a really important tool to stop the spread, especially of the highly transmissible Omicron variant," Biden said in remarks from the White House.
How the WH will distribute free masks will be announced next week.

I have been asked about this for weeks. A select forum council from among non-troll, forum members who ideologically are NOT vocal supporters of anti-science/anti-Fauci/anti-Democracy/pro-fascism/pro-bigotry/pro-"conspiracy theories" -- have made a decision based on the facts presented over the course of 2021. Last time, the coveted "2020 Post of the Year" honor went to fellow veteran, Midnight1....and deservedly so.....for his heartfelt post about an encounter with a young worker in a parking lot. For 2021, our decision was tough, so we will include a "runner-up" post. And no surprise, Midnight1 deserves the honors once again (with notable Honorable mention to Thirdperson for his tireless efforts in support of truth and facts on a daily basis)
2021 Runner-up....a self-explanatory, poignant reflection not just about our nation's political culture the past 3 years, but specifically how that in turn affects this forum. Speaking for myself, and I know at least 4 others, we agree with Midnight1's last sentence 100% - which has been our modus operandi for all of 2021 when the issue became crystal clear...
Dec. 10, posted by Midnight1:
"It's unbelievable. When did we become a country that can't/won't agree on facts? I do remember Kellyanne first mentioning "alternative facts." A fact is truth like 2+2 = 4. A fact is not an "interpretation."
It's really not worth the time [here] to converse with those not willing to accept the truth."
The first place "Post of the Year" honor also goes to Midnight1 for his epic post last spring. This will be replayed soon...

Thanks to elite US military force, one of the world's most wanted terrorists has been killed in a Syria raid according to Associated press. President Biden says he ordered the raid on the leader of Islamic state group to protect Americans and allies to make the world a safer place.
Great news!
Trump also deserves credit for getting a terrorist general in Iraq 3 years ago (which I have noted multiple times) and of course Obama/Biden team deserves credit for getting the worst of them all: OsamaBinLaden

Four decades ago, we didn't have a woman on the Supreme Court.
Now, we are about to have 4!
Funny how back in 1981 when President Reagan promised to nominate the first WOMAN to SCOTUS, there was no outcry by the republicans.
And literally hours after Ruth Bader Ginsberg's passing in 2020, Donald Trump *VOWED* to nominate a WOMAN to SCOTUS, and there was no outcry by republicans over that either.
But when Joe Biden announces he will nominate the first BLACK WOMAN to SCOTUS, OMG!!! - suddenly, the republican outcry over "identity politics!" "Mount your horses! Draw your swords!" The nerve of those scumbag Democrats! They are just playing "identity politics!"
They don't even know who has been nominated yet. They don't even know how immensely qualified she will be. But they are outraged!!
WHY?!
Can't be because the nominee will be female -- since the republicans did that themselves TWICE already! But while this nominee will be at least as qualified as Amy Barrett, if not more, there's one OBVIOUS difference ...
