*Joe Biden just did the rarest thing in US politics: he stood up to the oil industry.*

He doesn't do this as often as we need, but he's a lot better than many politicians that are entirely plutocratist. I also appreciate his efforts to improve antitrust law and regulation of corporations, which I've commented on here.

His efforts to end Israel's chain of atrocities are not firm enough but they are better than most American politicians would dare do.
