Led the White House Blueprint for Addressing the Maternal Health Crisis

Some “putting forth a non-binding resolution to form an exploratory committee to suggest a list of suggestions” energy there.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 38 points 5 months ago (1 children)

visit to a reproductive clinic is even more pitiful

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 28 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, like what the fuck? Really grasping at straws theredata-laughing

Sometimes a girl boss needs plan B

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 18 points 5 months ago (1 children)

in other words she did nothing lol. this is like how people act as tho obama did universal healthcare just because he SAID something about how he supposedly wanted to do it. as if saying something is the same as doing it.

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I feel like that was more overselling how expansive Obamacare coverage was

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

no i’ve actually seen people literally give him credit for “giving us universal healthcare” lol. i assume people who are from wealthy families and have healthcare so they don’t really know what’s going on

new record for most tie-breaking votes

Yeah in favor of the Republicans lmao

Office of Gun Violence Prevention

Motherfucker, Ronald Reagan literally banned automatic weapons in 1986 with Clinton implementing further gun bans in 1994.

visit a reproductive health clinic

Oh neat. Remind me, what happened to Roe v. Wade while she was on her little visit?

Addressing the Maternal Health Crisis

Gee I wonder what could be causing new mothers health problems? Is it school shootings, abortion bans, no mental healthcare, no regular healthcare, or multiple pandemics? Who knows? Good thing this addressing found fuck all.

I fucking hate liberals.

new record for most tie-breaking votes

shame about the national labor relations board oh well that's ok, I hear she's winning with or without the unions

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 42 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Four years and that's the best list you can come up with for what she's done in that time?

Literally just sitting in the job and doing absolutely fucking nothing.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 27 points 5 months ago

Could she have visited reproductive clinic while sitting? huh?

3 pinnochios

[–] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 38 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Biggest L to a gameshow host since Hillary Clinton

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 33 points 5 months ago

Even bigger L than Hillary, because Hillary at least won the popular vote.

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 32 points 5 months ago

First vice president to start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities as a Pell Grant recipient.

[–] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 31 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This is four years work? Any of us would be fired for this kind of output

[–] Biggay@hexbear.net 16 points 5 months ago

I could do this all in a day.

[–] FortifiedAttack@hexbear.net 29 points 5 months ago (1 children)

They should make me vice president, I'm gonna be the first VP to shit in a urinal on camera.

It's gonna be historic!

[–] quarrk@hexbear.net 28 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Casting tie-breaking votes says nothing about the Vice President.

[–] Taster_Of_Treats@hexbear.net 19 points 5 months ago

She showed up to work, somebody throw her a parade.

[–] volcel_olive_oil@hexbear.net 25 points 5 months ago

historic, absolutely breathtaking list of accomplishments, losing my balance trying to fathom the immeasurable skills required to show up twice a week to do nothing

[–] AntifaSuperWombat@hexbear.net 24 points 5 months ago

First Vice President to..... blah, blah, blah..... Just one participation trophy after another.

Are they really expecting anyone to be impressed by that? asa-brow

[–] adultswim_antifa@hexbear.net 24 points 5 months ago

Breaking ties in votes must be an incredible feeling for a democrat. One must imagine Kamala Harris happy.

[–] micnd90@hexbear.net 23 points 5 months ago

You forgor:

Losing to cheeto fascist and getting piledriver'd through the glass cliff

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 22 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Did nothing

Did nothing

Did something that had no real material effect but I guess I'm still surprised she was first

Did nothing

[–] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 5 points 5 months ago

Lets not forget the anti-abortion Democrats, so #3 is cancelled out my DNC strategy.

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago

someone should let the demoncrats know that being "first" in politics is fucking irrelevant if you cant maintain anything

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 19 points 5 months ago

I do more materially meaningful things in a week

[–] FuckyWucky@hexbear.net 18 points 5 months ago

so mid all of these she might as well say she did nothing

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

All the replies are MAGA blue checks lmao is this what Twitter is like now

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 11 points 5 months ago

For any dem statements - it has been that way for a long time

[–] dkr567@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

So she was another useless loser. I mean "led the first-ever white house office of gun violence prevention" doesn't really work when there were dozens of school shootings for one.

[–] dustcommie@hexbear.net 12 points 5 months ago

That would make an acceptable first day in office while getting your bearings, what happened the other 1459 days?
