I thought so too.
I thought so too.
I enjoy correcting all the whiny bastards that are complaining of wasted taxes for this. A privately funded citizen did 95% of the work over a 15 year period, culminating in a unified MN senate pushing it to the final level. Proud to know many of the team pushing this through for Joe to finalise it.
The eagle has always been sacred to Native Americans. Thank you President Biden!
This makes it even better. Apparently, the bald eagle is an excellent judge of character, too; it always seeks out rats and other predators:
trump will change it to a vulture.
I did too!
Wonderful!
Eagles are vultures with really good PR.
Waiting to see how FOX spins this into some irremediably evil subterfuge.
Frankly, the turkey would have been a lot more appropriate. The Idiocracy doesn't deserve such a noble and majestic bird as its symbol.
Of course 145 gets in. He’s gonna say he’s the one that made it official! he always takes credit for other peoples work!
I'm pretty sure WE ALL believed that. It's what they told us in school.
Same.
Me too.
The eagle 🦅 knows.
Everyone thought it already was too! The congresspersons who introduced the bill had to have the National Archives research it for verification.
They really are majestic birds we have quite a lot of Eagles around us.
Trump wants it shot
Just remembering the eagle that did not like Donald Trump. Tee Hee. Biden is subtle. m.youtube.com/watch?v=L32b...
Very intuitive bird …
45/47 is scared shitless of birds lol! youtu.be/GGxwn_N9DtE?...
Tell conservatives that Biden made the eagle our official state bird, they'll start demanding we change it to the Kakapo.
The bald eagle got my vote during Trump’s first term
Maybe Biden will give the orange turd an eagle at his inauguration... 😄 Watch the little man run, run, run away.. 🏃
I thought it was too.
I thought so to...I sure will miss Biden...getting up the courage of what's to come...stay safe, be good, spread kindness. 😍☮️
That is nice but I would much rather see that he has had the Equal Rights Amendment published. I'm hoping that he is going to get this done.
A presidential order would be unlawful & futile. Federal courts since 1982 have rejected claims ERA remains viable. Federal Judge Contreras (Obama appointee) in 2021, and on appeal a unanimous panel of the D.C. Circuit (Obama, Biden, Trump) in 2023, both rejected claims the ERA has been ratified.
This is all interesting information. It appears that the amendment is truly dead. If this is true, I am disappointed in people who were supporting the publishing the amendment when it seems they should have known better. That being said, every democrat should be demanding a new one as a priority.
Many endorsing the "one signature away" campaign DO "know better," as to the courts. But they find it politically expedient to whip up grassroots on this. In many cases, their endorsements required them to contradict positions they'd taken in past on deadlines/rescissions on constitutional measures.
Did you know that in every movie you’ve ever seen the blood curdling screech of the Majestic Bald Eagle is actually the dubbed in sound of an equally incredible raptor called the Red Tailed Hawk.
Watch trump undo it because President Biden did this.
Trump is a fascist and this is an ultra lame skeet.
That’s what I thought. Trump will probably override this in favor of the buzzar
Ben Franklin wanted to make the turkey the national bird.
Eagles know
😂😂
bsky.app/profile/xmen...
This eagle right here!!
Otherwise DonOLD would have given buzzards the title. We will need many after he’s done shredding the USA.
Same!!
I remember when that eagle was hostile to tfg.
Trump will probably replace it on day one with the vulture.
God's Creatures, no matter the Species, KNOW Good from EVIL! I've witnessed 1st hand a couple times (BAD choices in men)!!!!!
We love you President Biden 🇺🇸❤️🤍
It's hard to be happy about the eagle when we are forced to deal with the loon.
The turkey shouldn’t concede. The contest was rigged.
They know.
I hope TFG doesn't overturn it, just because....AND....
I hate to tell you Americans this but I’m from the Pacific Coast and bald eagles are just scavengers. I guess the choice is fitting.
Seems like this is a time of finding out that all we thought of as codes and laws were simply norms waiting to be violated. The Eagle just now being adopted as our symbolic bird is itself a symbol of the thin veil we are only seeing through these past ten years.
He wanted to make sure that Treasonous25 didn't make it a vulture a month from now.
I thought it was too! For more than 50 years of my life. Where the heck did I get that idea!?! 🤔🤯☺️
If Donald had known the eagle was not already our national bird, he'd have opened hunting season.
They're actually terribly violent and are referred to as the "sky pig" because they snort. I helped build aviaries for them years ago.
Yep..priorities
I thought the Bald Eagle was our national bird too. I'm glad he commuted those death sentences first because this example of symbology doesn't help anybody.
Biden remains the most popular President ever in terms of having received more votes than any other candidate ever. If anyone has a mandate, it is Biden/Harris who still hold office.
Unlike Garland, the eagle knows a traitor.
I couldn’t agree more 💙
The American Bald Eagle The bald eagle has been the national bird of the United States since 1782, when it was placed with outspread wings on the Great Seal of our country. It appears in many government institutions and on official documents, making it the most pictured bird in all of America.
I always thought it our national bird 2, however it has been our EMBLEM....now it is our Official National Bird. It will no doubt 'rub' Trump that he can't take credit for it ha ha ha I LOVE IT!!!
I thought so also!
A buzzard would be more honest especially with the new administration of billionaires.
When I drive the Thruway between Syracuse and Rochester, it passes through the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, which is in part, a bald eagle sanctuary. Every once in a while you can catch one or two flying overhead. It's so very cool when it happens.
Ben Franklin wanted the wild turkey. After watching them in the wild for years I agree with him.
Also given the political landscape of 2016-2020 the national bird was probably the DoDo…
I thought it was too!!!
#Biden has accomplished more in 30 days than #Tchump will accomplish in the next 4 years.
Me too
Oh have you not heard.... I was under the impression everyone had heard.... about the bird.....
I thought it was too😆😆
I did too…
I'm a big fan of your content. However I'd like to request you reconsider using gen ai images. The ethical and environmental effects are serious. I know people not in the arts/creatives don't see the effects yet but trust me they are there.
That is an interesting point. It's mind blowing how much AI is already embedded into the internet and society. As a musician and artist I have issues with it, but isn't it way more than images and art.
Oh yeah! Writing, music, producing, its poisoning every form of the creative industries and arts. I know quite a few people who have lost jobs, projects, or hours to ai already. And of course quite a few indi artists that have reported significant losses in sales and commissions.
And let's make the American dollar our national currency, while we're at it. These and other pressing issues are vital to the survival of the union. (do we have a national favorite color, yet? Let's get on it!)
Same here. I can’t believe it wasn’t!
I was privileged to see an Eagle in rural Michigan. Seen lots of hawks on California.
That AI depiction of a Bald Eagle is the worst thing to happen to the species since DDT
Honestly a waste of time in light of :: gestures vaguely ::
I was really surprised that was never official. Guess this will keep mango Mussolini from offing them all because one expressed its hatred for him though. Maybe. Depends on what President Musk wants.
Ya but leave it to Dumpy to wanna change it to a Parrot cause the eagle wont repeat his bullshit
If that was a surprise, then what are your thoughts on the fact that the USA had shot and killed so many Bald Eagles that they were almost made extinct in the USA? That is, until we caught a bunch of Bald Eagles here and relocated them to the States.
This is enough of a nothingburger that I really don't care. De Facto national bird vs De Jure national bird. Mehh. But there's 49 much more impactful pieces of legislation Biden signed off on alongside it this week. Those are worth celebrating.
Hear! Hear!! 🗽🇺🇸
Wow, so birds over birth control coverage, Supreme court, 20 billion taken from the IRS, I mean I can go on and on. Biden did great things, though most Americans don't get that because Biden lacks self promotion. But the decisions now are just useless.
I know that’s right !!
THIS!!! Good to see an actual picture
Gotta love it.
I also thought it was our national bird. One of the reasons I always thought that is because it’s illegal to kill them or capture them
FEW THINGS MORE REGAL THAN SIGHT OF BALD EAGLE ~ BURMA-GRAM
what a waste of time.
Does it even matter?
Yeah, then when the nitwits come in and destroy the EPA, we'll be able to say goodbye to the bald eagle again (we almost made them extinct in my lifetime, if these 'all regulation is bad' creatures get their way, say goodbye to a lot of wildlife).
Sadly, this pic looks like a Trump NFT. May as well have an eagle driving a monster truck drinking a Bud Light. A simple pic of an eagle would be nice.
It's so meaningless tho
he's the best!
He should have tied it to something so they couldn't undo it without undoing the other. Like free healthcare.
Now that the rivers of Pittsburgh are so clean people can kayak to work, eagles are nesting on the banks. There are a couple of live Eagle Cams, but it's winter so the nest is empty. But save it if you'd like to watch later. www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/u...
I work at a competitor mill in Detroit and we have 4 nesting pairs all within a mile of each other. They hunt up and down the Detroit river all year long and it never gets old.
Isn't the Bald eagle sacred to indigenous peoples?
Pure, pointless theatrics, man. Meaningless as hell considering the shitshow we're facing. Potential mass deportations, loss of women's right to bodily autonomy but hey, the bird's official. That'll make all the difference.
Biden is a turd. Any liberals want to explain how Biden isn't dog shit to me? Use your words. I love to laugh!
Republicans have a house majority, the Senate is split 51-49, and the original version was loaded w/ far more poison pills. Read up on all the bad shit that got negotiated OUT of the bill: democrats-armedservices.house.gov/_cache/files... Sadly, this is how the sausage gets made.
Kyle H 's version of the poem... 𝘍𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 - 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘬 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦. Can you even hear yourself? --- In other news - it's a shame Defiant Dad deleted his post. I was looking forward to many more explainers. Oh, well!
So, what is your proposal? Dig in on the maximalist position on gender care for minors? Dems lose the Senate in a week, and the White House in a month. You stall the NDAA trying to get 100% of what you want, a GOP trifecta passes their original proposal, which contained far more bad news. 1/2
Restrictions on abortion care services. Removal of what restrictions remain on selling military hardware to police. Blocking support for Ukraine ETC. Dems protected who they could, in light of the fact they lose power to do ANYTHING legislatively soon. But sure, throw out the baby w/ the bathwater.
Also - he didn't delete his post. I still see it. He just blocked you, probably because the constant leftist drive to bash Dems and impede the chance to do ANYTHING if you can't do EVERYTHING wears people out.
> impede My oh my - I'm so powerful. I had no idea! > the constant leftist drive to bash Dems He threw trans people under the bus. Seems bad. And what do you have to say about the immunity ruling, eh?
You skipped over the part where, if they can't get SOME GOP support now, the bill dies, and the GOP passes it with a dozen more poison pills added in 30 days from now. Dems protected abortion access and Ukraine aid and limits on police militarization, with a split Congress. Equally valid framing.
Sad truth is, there's no version where Dems go to the wall trying to get EVERYTHING right in this bill and also succeed. It sucks. And I hate it. But you can't make a House majority appear out of thin air by being angry enough.
> So, what is your proposal? Haha. Okay. We'll play this game! Oh, my goodness - smol bean biden can't do anything?! In actual fact - Biden has the powers of a king. For anybody who thinks I'm joking - I'm not. Google GOP scotus justices immunity ruling.
He did it because that’s what Republicans would pass. Not saying he’s good but in our two party system we’re in, with small populations having outsized influence, this is what we get
> small populations having outsized influence Not all small populations, huh.
I can't explain it. Why the fuck would he agree to that? That's insane. I feel like his whole administration is shrugging and giving up right now.
Yes thank you President Biden 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
IKR! Kind of like we all thought there were laws that would prevent a fraud & traitor like Trump from getting anywhere near our White House, especially twice! Shame on us.
Thank you President Biden🇺🇸💙
IKR?! I had no idea.
Honestly man I was confused by this too.
🤢
With tfg and his stooges reoccupying the White House, perhaps, perhaps it should be the ostrich.
I had thought it was too. Thanks, Joe!
I second this!
I think Ben Franklin was right - the Turkey got robbed
I'd still cast my vote for the wild turkey.
And it wouldn't surprise me at all if the rapist convicted felon tries to undo it😎
Our new one? 🤭
That's a little harsh and unfair to amazing Turkey Vultures. 😜
Buzzards where I'm from 🤭🤣
We all have a job to do. I get it 🤣🤭 😉
Now President Biden can create an executive order declaring ALL on the political right the national rodents.
Well said BrooklynDad. The eagle truly represents the power and beauty of our great country.🦅🇺🇲
Me too.
(It was. He made it legal)
Well, you know the orange felon wouldn't. They don't like him.
He's much older now...not that they were quick then, but his reflexes won't be as quick now as they were then.
How could Biden not reward the eagle .....
🤣
The Bird of Freedom! Trump is afraid of birds.
The entire world thought so.
I thought it was too!
Yes! A majestic bird and a majestic president. The most majestic president of all time!
While women remain 2nd class citizens under yet another “liberal man” … Text Biden at (302)404-0880 … Do it for the females in your life…please 👏🏼 #ratifytheERAnow … but Yay eagles! 🦅
Same! I never realized it wasn’t “official”. WTG President Biden! #ThankYouBiden
Ben Franklin’s shade cast a loooong shadow on the Bald Eagle 🤣 www.nwf.org/en/Magazines...
Just so small consider
Crazy huh? I just learned that a couple of weeks ago.
Me, too. So, yeah, this is pretty cool.
Benjamin Franklin thought it should be the turkey.
Thank President Biden! 🇺🇸
Thank you, President Biden.
If America can’t find the courage to protect itself and everything it stands for by enforcing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, then maybe Biden’s picked the wrong bird.
For the next four years, here is the official state bird: 🖕
Perfect!!!
I never knew it wasn't official. I second the thank you to President Biden.
I thought it was too? Huh...
I remember a short video where a bald eagle tried to bite Trump.
Everyone did😄
While VP Joe and Hunter illegally funneled money to themselves for China influence hannity.com/media-room/b...
Well it couldn’t possibly be Trump, that bird hates his guts: www.theguardian.com/us-news/vide...
We got way more of them than you do up here . If you need some it's just a 300% tariff. Your president raped a 13 year old lies with ever second breath and wears clown makeup, just saying. I love your feed.🍺
This will never get old. 🤣
lol, every time I see this it brings me joy, seeing "tough guy" Donald get spooked over an eagle is hilarious.
Ha! Stole my thunder....!👍
His cringe of fear shows what a damn scardycat he really is.
I don't think my eyes will ever recover from seeing that image of him at the bottom. Yikes!
Was that a prescient comment about Stormy's remarks about his mushroom?
Yup, Stormy was all seeing
Absolutely. He tries to act all tough but reality is he is far from.
Think that bird’s name was Thunder …. (not really, his name is Freedom, but I couldn’t resist)
Ha! 👍
😂 👍 vroom vroom
I know. Here in Florida I get to see them once in awhile. Brings tears to my eyes when I see them. They are so beautiful.
Now Jr can’t hunt them anymore
Eagles hate Trump because he lifted the Obama era ban on lead ammunition for the NRA on day one. Eagles and other birds of prey started dying in higher numbers again.
Ditto! So glad it was Biden!
I listen to this on nor yesterday. Very interesting.
I'm sure Trump will criticize it somehow once President Elect Musk tells him to.
It is. Just not by declaration of law. She's a she. Her name is Pearl. USPS since 1970 when she replaced the pony.
I thought it was as well
You know Trump wanted a pigeon. His life philosophy 💰💰
Franklin wanted the Wild Turkey
Trump was about to name himself as the National official symbol….
Awkward
Ok no offense. But I’m with Ben Franklin on this one. Sure the eagle looks good. But it’s a really dumb bird and it’s a scavenger. Related to vultures. It’s a carrion eating bird that looks good. The turkey is a better choice. Or hell a peregrine falcon
I have been chased by a turkey, they are just as freaking fierce as eagles!
I’ve been chased by a gaggle of them. Tho I think they were being friendly
I was only mad that the Senate did this before the SS Fairness Act.
So let me get this straight…the bald eagle was never America’s official national bird & President Biden just made it so?! THAT is wild!
Can we now quit putting the hawk sound bites in with pictures and video of eagles, please? We’ve got an issue as a society if we have to lie to make the eagle sound fiercer. 😑
