It's not the first time it's extended beyond "business as usual". And you conveniently ignored the fact that it's even worse now. Boring is a spectrum.

So did every president since Israel existed. The non-boring president didn't stop that genocide, he blocked a lot of aid we were sending Ukraine, and unblocked a lot of aid we weren't sending Israel. At least Biden wasn't trying to turn Gaza into his own resort. This is objectively worse than boring Biden.

Biden was boring. It was a welcome reprieve from daily scandals and, at minimum, monthly constitutional crises. Now we're moving to weekly constitutional crises. Functional government is boring. It's mostly bureaucratic regulatory bookkeeping.

It's certainly possible to not be boring in a positive way, for instance if a politician is loudly advocating for radical positive change. But statistically speaking, boring is less harmful than the alternative.

As in cervical vertebrae? Displaying them does tend to make an impression

Good thing we taught the Dems a lesson. Both sides amirite?

That article says that a House Republican-led subcommittee came to that conclusion based on shakey evidence at best, made several other unfounded claims unrelated to the origin, and was criticized heavily by House Democrats. Their main piece of evidence was the Wuhan lab experimenting with distantly related COVID variants.

I would not call that "confirmed".

He actually came to the US on asylum from M-13, who were threatening him and his family. El Salvador is the one country on Earth he can't legally be sent to.

This song from Les Miserables, presumably.

People will seek out alternatives and there will be enough that aren't disillusioned with electoralism that go for that option.

A baseless claim unsupported by anything but your own wishful thinking. I'd love for that to happen, but I'm not fool enough to gamble on it.
