  1. Psaki is really good at dealing with gotcha questions and taunts. She stays calm, reasonable and focused and don't allow her feelings to derail the press conference. And the best: With this she reflects the question back to the reporter and it makes him or her silly and shameful for even asking it in the first place.

  2. Imagine that before body cams. Before cameras on mobile phones. Before Social Media and the Internet. It's probably just a tiny little piece of a rather large and dark iceberg.

  3. This is precisely what the we need. Being able to look further and having a wider perspective ... and a lot of empathy and heart. Bring back Decency. Bring back Integrity. Bring back Honesty. Bring back Empathy. All this is required to bring back Trust the very foundation of all societies.

  4.  @luchi.el.zorrito  You apprently never watch the full Psaki-Hour. You know usually those takes place 4 times a week in the last weeks. She answers a lot and straight out or help out the reporter to find informations for them. One video is not defining the hundreds of hours she already done.

  5.  @darrellwilliams1714  Good example. And why: Well because not all the facts were teached. And some fact may even have been false.

  6. Wow. The Trolls are really triggered on this one. Now that someone finally say what's going on.

  7. Could have started 25 years earlier. There is soooo much unused space in the United States. Hardly trees, mostly grass plains to desert. Perfect for wind-energy and solar-farms.

  8. Thanks for clearing that up. It was sickening how comments are poisoned with Anti-Biden misinformation.

  9. Nice response to avoid saying "yes". Do you mind me using it? I might need this a lot this year. EDIT: Intresting idea: You cannot say "liar" to someone in the House of Commons in the UK. I wonder if you can say "you are not a Truther" without repercussions. Too bad this word doesn't translate well into german.

  10.  @karenwillexposeyou2542  "Democrats are communists" is a contradiction in terms. Read at least a little bit on Wikipedia before making such moronic statements.

  11. The US should seriously think about why the 2nd ammendment was there 200 years ago and consider that the reason is no longer valid and somewhat out-of-date. And that this particular "right" creates more problems then it solves ... much more. In 200 years it was not even once necessary for the purpose it was put there.

  12.  @luchi.el.zorrito  I called it like this affectionatly because it's really her hour every day when she glances with her personality, her professionalism and knowledge. And it's shorter than "White House Press Conference".

  13. Let's you hope for the following generations. Thank you.

  14. It was inhumane to seperate families in the first place. Only Facistic countries done and do that.

  15. The Boomers who are making the most issues are currently dying out, every year a little more. My advice is fight for your homecountry: Go vote, no matter how hard they make it for you. And ensure upfront that all is in order so they have no way of invalidating your vote. And don't let them tell you your vote is worth nothing or making you think voting changes nothing. IT DOES! Why else do they try so hard now to rig elections upfront in their favor.

  16. Decency, Integrity, Honesty and Empathy are the only things that really matter in politics. And most Republicans seem to have exchanged all of them for greed and power. And these here are some of the victims of this.

  17. You contradicting yourself. Trump is the villain here.

  18. China ≠ All of Asia And people who grew up in the United States have even less to do with all of it.

  19.  @brickzandstickz2749  1400$ stimulus checks. Help for Child Poverty. Help for small bussiness to help out on Corona? 100 mio Corona shots? And Biden is just 7 weeks in office. And done an impeachment as well and he of course needed to create his cabinett. Other presidents needed 7 weeks just for that.

  20.  @bltvd  At a price of 115.000 lifes every year. At what point is this "right" too costly for a society?

  21. And your wage was large enough to not only buy the house, pay the morgage but you could feed your kids and your wife staying at home to care for them all of them same income. And today one job is not enough for yourself.

  23. Biden offered reasonable Republicans to work with him but they only block and delay. Even on topics which the public widly supports by Republican and Democrat voters alike. For example Corona-Stimulus: No Republican voted for it and they tried to stop it, 15$ minimum wage. And I doubt Republican Lawmakers will help on Infrastructure either. They only want to stop it because Biden will make companies and people above 400.000$ per year pay for it.

  26. The 1400$ checks were a good start was it. And your Corona-shots? And Biden is just 7 weeks in office.

  27. In Germany everyone has a national-ID from the age of 15 no exceptions. With that you are Auto-Registered for Voting. You get a reminder 6 weeks before the election with an option to request mail-in ballots if you want or need to. You don't need proof from a doctor, you don't have to met any conditions you just need to send the request-form back and get the papers shortly after. And it's not new. It works like that for more than half a century.

  28. It's simple and suggested 20 years ago. Taxing all financial transactions.

  29. I'm sure they know that. But they can sell it as "We tried" and get a political point.

  30. Another 72,499,999 souls having the same feelings and maybe the country has a chance to fix everything wrong from the last 40 years and really making America Great Again because this ... this is it not.

  31. Amen.

  32. Perfect meme for UK-EU relations.

  33. I actually found it funny to read the comments. The issues regarding "teaching history" are the same which "providing news" has: Report the facts, but not any opinion on it. And most people can't see the difference between them anymore and make one mistake after another because of it. And people wondering what is going wrong in the media and with Social Media.

  34. Financial Transactions should be taxed. Suggested 20 years ago.

  35. He will most likely need a new home and job after this. And psychological support for years. So he will need the money.

  36.  @funfact445  And how many of those people only have guns because others have guns?!

  37. Shows how little you actually know. Despite the fact that you need better spelling.

  38. Democracy has nothing to do with the Democrats. And the Republic has nothing to do with the Republican Party. The United States of America is a Federal Republic and a [Constitutional] Democracy.

  39. Britain is also not telling all the facts about it's own slavery. And now they even try to hide even more because people start to ask.

  40. A word of warning. Hitler also pushed the "normalos" out of the Conservative Party at his time. The remaining party was a party of collaborators and they all just hope to get a job and good income in the new Dictatorship.

  41.  @lovefortruth3414  Sorry you not really making sense. To be able to vote you must register. To be able to register you must be citizen and have ID. You can only vote by mail when you are registered. Illegals are no citizens. People waiting for citizenships are no citizens. Both cannot register, let alone register for mail-in ballot. What's the problem?
    2
  42.  @lovefortruth3414  But if you are not a citizen the authorities don't send out any mail-in ballots. They have their own list to look if you are citizen or not.

  43. Everything counts. The more is reduced the better it is. Methan is unfortunatly several times more potent to store heat on the atmosphere that's why it's particular effective to reduce. However cars, burning coal and oil is much more widely used and widespread.

  44. NOT ONE Republican voted the 1400$ checks, the help for small bussinesses, for schools to protect people from covid so they can stay open, for kids in poverty. NONE. Tell you everything what their priorities are.

  45. Mrs. Ocasio-Cortez don't fall for her taunts! You are classes above her. Green is a sorry excuse for a human being and not worth any recognition. Accepting anything will only elevate her that's why she wants this. She tries to use your popularity for herself, don't fall for this. People like her only stop and disappear when people lose interest.

  46. Common Sense only works when you are told the truth and have enough critical thinking skills. Both are rare and underdeveloped nowadays.

  48. You can thank Trump for that. He gone too far and now everyone was politically awakened and finally watching what the Republicans are doing ... or not doing. The Senate is now constantly under scrutiny by normal people and all the urglyness coming from the Republicans is dragged into broad daylight for everyone to see ... and people have enough of it. For 50 years Republicans strangled society it needs to end.

  49. Explanation: Someone pressed the button (Brexit), traffic stopped (trade slowed), than they play with the controls (politics and renegotiations) and now it's stuck in the upright position.

  50. Perfect music for this. It has no serious consequences at all. Due to the EU you hardly notice the change between countries anymore. The only ones now crying out loud are the media because of the good story and the nationalists who are against the EU in the first place in hopes the full border will be erected again some day. But thanks for the smile.
