Joe Biden will be scrutinized by all observers, even here at DU. He'll make unpopular decisions like all presidents do, and we will hold him accountable to do the best for all Americans. So far, he rates pretty high.

We will not prop up Chuck Toad or Joe or even Rachel when/if they lie to us.
Stay vigilant. Read as many sources as the Internet can offer. Support investigative journalism. Fight confirmation bias.
