CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I find that VERY HARD to believe per Biden's behavior.
No cognitive decline? That's like saying there is no evidence the sky isn't blue.
More lies from the liberal media

Thank God the Biden family is finally irrelevant. I doubt ANY of the future Biden's will have a career in politics. Joe deserves a nice, peaceful, retirement!

You do you. I don't believe in the liberal media, so that makes everything I say not believable. If you say so.
I can think for myself, thank you very much.
I do my own research.
Be blessed!

You do realize the only person making this claim is you, right?
The reasons other people might think your posts are not believable is well documented by what they actually wrote.

Which people are you asserting have said that the reason your posts are not believable is because you don't "believe in the liberal media", whatever that means? Please be specific.

It's like you were writing today's headlines yesterday!
Trump probably 'violated the law' when he fired independent watchdogs, judge says
“There's not any real dispute that that just violated the law, right, government?” Judge Reyes asked.“What I would say is we don't dispute that the president did not comply with the sentence in the statute calling for congressional notice,” said DOJ attorney Jeremy Newman

It's the reason why Trump fired all those IGs from all those varying agencies on darn near day one.
Once out they're way, no other resistance to the Musk firings but the courts.

and then some more. But fortunately, Trump put Elon Musk on the case to root out $2 trillion waste. Of course, that $2T got trimmed down as time went on.
A new report shows how the government handles inefficiency better than Elon Musk
Senate Democrats have released a report showing how inspectors general most likely outperform Elon Musk when it comes to saving money.The Senate Democrats' report crunched the numbers and found that the 19 fired IGs had identified and recommended $175 billion in potential savings through audits, investigations and efficiency proposals. That’s $5 billion more than Musk’s estimate after months of chaotic hacking away at the administrative state. (While the offices of inspectors general still exist, the firings of the IGs had a demoralizing and chilling effect on the offices, according to the report, and the main duties of rooting out waste, fraud and corruption appear to have been given to Musk.)
Granted, the report’s calculation of the IGs’ potential savings wouldn’t necessarily end up hitting its topline number. But the source of its estimates for cost-cutting is far more reliable than Musk’s estimates.
[IGs] have a track record of rooting out waste — in fiscal year 2024, all IGs in the federal government had "over $71 billion in combined monetary impact" through their efficiency initiatives, audits and investigations, according to the Democrats’ report. These efforts include things like questioning unnecessary spending, finding and cracking down on illegal federal contracts, sniffing out public officials inappropriately using money and tracking down actors trying to defraud the government through illicit procurement schemes.

Noem-led dept 'spending like drunken sailors' as report says Trump agency is $1 billion over budget
Although President Donald Trump’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency is deporting people at a slower pace than President Joe Biden did last year, ICE, under the direction of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, is reportedly $1 billion over budget—even as Trump on Sunday issued a new order directing the agency to carry out “the largest Mass Deportation Program in History.”Even before that order, Trump’s “immigration crackdown” has been “burning through cash so quickly that the agency charged with arresting, detaining and removing unauthorized immigrants could run out of money next month,” Axios reported on Monday. ICE “is already $1 billion over budget by one estimate, with more than three months left in the fiscal year.”
Over budget, and still in third place to Obama and Biden.
