real :ever-given: hours
In fairness, what power does the Department of Transportation actually have at this point beyond smashing down rail and air traffic controller unions? The levers of power he'd have been able to pull in the past got ripped out for their copper wiring 20 years ago.
Yea, anyone picked by Biden would probably do exactly the same thing.
He's Obama but solely the positive, empty platitudes, and completely void of all cunning
I dunno, the Iowa caucus fiasco must have taken a bit of cunning.
Him being connected to the developers of the app involved in that shitshow is evidence of it. Same with his preemptive "victory" speech, but it's not proof he was behind all of it.

That's a different, defunct company that folded in 2013. The Evergreen responsible for the container boat crash is based in Taipei.
Can't wait for McKinsey to get a $50 million contract to investigate the cause of the failure
