    Biden to make rare trip to red state for infrastructure pitch in Louisiana

    With congressional Republicans largely united against his plans, Biden is reaching beyond them to voters for backing.

    He’s scheduled to visit Lake Charles

    as well as New Orleans to talk about federal investments in water projects —

    a potentially popular idea in a coastal state increasingly threatened with inundation spurred by climate change.

    The president plans to tour one of the city’s aging, troubled facilities that houses water purification equipment and turbines for drainage pumps.

    Administration officials estimate that fixing Louisiana’s water infrastructure would cost $7 billion over two decades.

    BigOil owns the totality of LA and LA's politicians. BigOil has degraded and poisoned LA, eg, "cancer alley"

    Joe Biden Faces GOP Governor Revolt After Worse Than Expected Jobs Report

    GOP governors of Montana and South Carolina had already announced plans to no longer participate in the federal program that gives a $300 weekly boost to jobless benefits.

    last month saw the slowest improvement since January 2021 when only 49,000 jobs were added.

    "Incentives matter," Gianforte said in a statement on Tuesday, "and the vast expansion of federal unemployment benefits is now doing more harm than good."

    Although federally funded, states have to opt in and administer the program which runs until the end of September, and as such, have the legal right to opt out.

    executive vice president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, expressed concern that

    one in four recipients got more in unemployment than they did working, ty jobs

    and said that aid payments were "dampening what should be a stronger jobs market." for ty jobs

    Kansas ...by the end of the month

    Biden's lifeline for red-state cities

    El Paso is being squeezed.
    In 2019, the Texas state legislature passed SB2 which limits property tax increases to 3.5 percent per year.

    Meanwhile, most of the city's budget is based on largely unfunded state mandates.

    And where the state in 2008 funded 45 percent of local education costs, that's been reduced to just 39 percent today.

    a blue triangle at the far end of a sea of red in West Texas — and Stout thinks politics plays a big role in the increasing limits on local spending:

    "The state legislature wants to stop local progressive policies from being put in place."

    The $350 billion for state and local governments in the American Rescue Plan,

    on the other hand, is being distributed in a formula

    putting far more dollars directly in the hands of local cities of all sizes.

    The amounts go beyond immediate gaps in budgets and will help fund a wide range of new local projects through 2024.


    it is also a critical way to help local government officials, particularly the

    the restoration of earmarks in Congress ... increasingly progressive leaders in cities in red states that are under attack by Republican politicians in those states.

    Bypassing the hostility of Republican state leaders

    Far more than a red state-blue state divide, national politics are increasingly a red state-blue city divide. Many state governments do everything possible to politically disenfranchise city voters while also stripping their local governments of power,

    (red)states preempting their (cities) legal right to pass local legislation like the minimum wage or mask mandates.

    It's no coincidence that state government gutting of local power and funding has happened

    as Black and Latino leaders began to be voted into office

    over the last few decades in cities across the nation,

    89 mayors across the country found that

    mayors in Republican states were much more likely to describe

    the financial support from their states as "less" or "much less" than the average city compared to their peers in Democratic states,

    and that the perceived hostility was accelerating year-to-year.

    the old rules don't apply

    since the oligarchy's ATM, aka the Fed, is vacuuming up nearly all the Fed printed money,

    so almost none goes To The People where it might push demand into inflation.

    Looming inflation right now is due to post-pandemic pent up demand clobbered by pandemic-disruption of supply in industrial sectors, like ICs (eg, Ford cutting production for lack of ICs), lumber, congested container freight, NOT by Fed printing money.

    The ups and downs of post pandemic recovery will exist regardless the admin. The admin can worsen or soften it, but it will exist.

    In the fourth month of his presidency, Biden’s overall approval rating sits at 63%. When it comes to the new Democratic president’s handling of the pandemic, 71% of Americans approve, including 47% of Republicans.

    The AP-NORC poll also shows an uptick in Americans’ overall optimism about the state of the country. Fifty-four percent say the country is on the right track, higher than at any point in AP-NORC polls conducted since 2017; 44% think the nation is on the wrong track.

    I hate to break it to you but those ratings you posted for State of the Union a few days ago are based largely on polls.

    The guy who frequently posts runs of tweets by people with 15 combined followers has a problem with gleaning national opinion from a small sample size.

    I don't totally disagree, but when it's Rasmussen, poll smack is apparently ok. Just playing by their rules, tbh
