    I’m not sure you do. You just referenced a document where you didn’t know half of what was going on under Biden.

      Would you like to provide any examples of Biden doing the things I mentioned?

        Sure, heres a few of them. For future reference, there are these things called “Search engines” that let you find stuff that you don’t know about. You should try them out. But something tells me that you won’t do any research, and you likely won’t even look into these.

          This is horrible. You could rightfully argue this does not properly count as court. Although this doesn’t disprove any individual claim I made; the article mentions nothing about citizens being treated in this way, for example. Still wrong to do it of course.

          This was a measure taken to increase oversight into database access, not reduce it. Agents have more access than they should, but this is a far cry from unsupervised write access to multiple agency’s databases by people with no security clearance or oversight. If the point being made is about surveillance rather than unsupervised DB access: Yeah, I know the Biden admin did it too, that’s why I didn’t pretend it was something unique to the Trump admin.

          Looks like regulations on federal land were proposed to increase, not be removed. Continuing to lease land could plausibly count as allowing nature to be destroyed though.

          This was not Biden? It was a state level trial. But yes, keeping him in jail for that long is highly suspect, even if he did waive his right to a speedy trial.

          Not sure which point this is supposed to disprove.

          Same with these three. I don’t think I made any claims about Israel or Gaza at all? Correct me if I’m wrong, it’s been several days.

          Overall: You did provide several articles that, while not technically disproving any individual claim I made, make good points that the Biden admin is not entirely innocent on some of the topics related to the points I mentioned. Still, as I’ve probably said before, the difference in scale is important.

            …while not technically disproving any individual claim I made…

            I love how libs constantly move the goalposts when presented with data.

            Yeah, it is important. While Trump is a 9/10 monster, Biden is only an 8/10 monster, who supports Trump, and helps him out with his projects.

              Literally how is that moving the goalposts? I said that while Biden did bad things, it was not on the scale of what Trump did during his admin, and presented a list of specific claims I said Trump did above and beyond what other admins such as Biden’s did. You disagreed, so I asked for proof of Biden doing any of the specific things I claimed. You provided evidence of Biden doing many horrible things, like previous admins did, but did not provide evidence of him doing anything I listed. I’ve been perfectly consistent. Can you describe how you perceived the goal as moving?

              (Also, I’m not a liberal.)

              Yeah, it is important. While Trump is a 9/10 monster, Biden is only an 8/10 monster, who supports Trump, and helps him out with his projects.

              You are free to view it that way, but it would be unreasonable to claim that is the only way to view it in light of the many differences I pointed out.

                I literally posted articles explaining how he did the things you listed. I’m not sure how to make that any more clear.

                (Also, I’m not a liberal.)

                Then why are you supporting them, and fighting against people who are accurately pointing out that they are monsters?

                You are free to view it that way, but it would be unreasonable to claim that is the only way to view it in light of the many differences I pointed out.

                Yes, I am able to view it correctly. But it is not unreasonable, considering that you didn’t really highlight differences. You highlighted things that Biden also very much did, as evidenced above. From what I can see, the “many differences” means “he killed, tortured, raped, stole and genocided slightly less than Trump”.
