By a country mile. How many trillions of dollars of bills has he helped shepherd through Congress in his first two years? And for all of it, 43% approval/51% disapprove. Hasn’t recovered since the Afghanistan withdrawal last August, which might be one of the bigger manufactured media bullsh-t stories in a hot second.

100%. The media should have been ashamed for their performance. If they were actually intellectually honest or, you know, journalists.

That was about as clean as it could have been done. WHICH DOESN'T MEAN FAULTLESS. But the hysterics like the ear correspondent from NBC were just frothing at the mouth
 
Is this a big deal?

A U.S. Department of Labor rule proposed Tuesday would make it more difficult for companies to treat workers as independent contractors, a change that is expected to shake up ride-hailing, delivery and other industries that rely on gig workers.

...

The proposal would require that workers be considered employees, entitled to more benefits and legal protections than contractors, when they are "economically dependent" on a company. It could have wide-ranging impacts on company profits and hiring, household incomes and worker quality of life.

The final rule is expected next year, after a 45-day public comment period that begins Thursday.

The Labor Department said it will consider the worker's "opportunity for profit or loss, investment, permanency, the degree of control by the employer over the worker, (and) whether the work is an integral part of the employer’s business," among other factors.

Most federal and state labor laws, such as those requiring a minimum wage and overtime pay, only apply to a company's employees, who can cost companies up to 30% more than independent contractors, studies suggest.

Yeah that is going to hurt the gig economy but in all the right ways. This is great for the workers as they will actually be treated as human beings now and actual employees.

You will know it is a big deal because Republicans will rail against it since it is likely to hurt some businesses and help actual people.

Biden is just killing it.
