So he did not say that, or move the embassy to Jeruselum and merely continued the same track, as I had already said and without any sort of rebuttal, considering the a) damage to Democrats and b) Trump reversing course the second he gets into office anyway.

Moot.

My points still stand.

Nothing like perfection being the enemy of good, is that right?

It always amuses me how people will criticize someone for doing a good thing despite the fact that the alternative choice… Did nothing. Especially when the likes of you would never come to Biden’s defense when the right wing propaganda machine drones on endlessly about, “Biden releasing convicted felons back into put crime ridden streets!!”

Friendly reminder regarding that Birmingham Letter:

It was later that those same liberals passed Civil Rights legislation in Congress. Sure wasn’t the southern Conservatives now, was it? lol.

Nay. Much easier to throw peanuts from the peanut gallery. To blame the good guy for not being better; not the villain who made action necessary in the first place.

I wish more people understood this.

Oh? When did Biden say to Bibi, “Finish the job.”? In addition to providing arms to Israel over the course of Trump’s first term, he also moved the embassy to Jeruselum. Did Biden do that? No siree.

If you weren’t aware, they had a falling out over the course of 2024 with reports indicating this as early as February. Before that I might be inclined to agree, Trump’s lack of moral character notwithstanding.

No, I said Biden restricting weapons would earn him criticism from Israel, as well as domestically. Huge difference.

To reiterate the dodged points:

• Circular Reasoning Fallacy: We have yet to establish that Trump had anything to actually do with the ceasefire beyond unreliable sources, speaking from anonymity, cited by yet another unreliable source controlled by the PM who sought Trump’s reelection in the first place.

• Given both Bibi and Trump’s propensity for showboating, this is all political theatrics to make Trump look good. If I was a piece of shit like them, I’d do the same thing.

• A ceasefire is utterly meaningless by this point anyway. If you haven’t noticed, Trump told Bibi to “Finish the job,” and Bibi pretty much did. There isn’t much left in gaza to cease firing upon in the first place. The damage is done.

Trump and Bibi are closer than Bibi and Biden. If you can’t grasp this, you will in time.

As I said, truly remarkable you trust Arab figures speaking on anonymity and Donald Trump’s word for what he supposedly did.

Tell me, did he “do the weave”? Lmao.

Forgetting you sourced Times of Israel. What a gem. What’s next, RT?

What a colosally flimsy house of cards to build the hill you’re choosing to die on.

Between November 5th and now would have done exactly jack shit. Especially when that would be immediately reversed by Trump anyway. Besides, it’s not as though the Democratic party ceases to exist. What makes you think Israel still wouldn’t do that in order to justify even worse atrocities, then blame Democrats anyway? That’s what’s called a High Risk / Low Reward play.

But nah man, keep believing Trump will be better, or hell even “equally bad.” If you genuinely care about Palestinians, then you’re about to get a wake-up call. Moving the embassy to Jeruselum while telling Bibi to, “Finish the job.” Well, mission accomplished I guess.

Though with anonymity and online astroturfing operations I cannot rule out the viable alternative.

Truly I cannot believe how after all this time and everything Trump and Bibi has done that people are still naive enough to believe they’re acting in good faith and not entirely for political optics. Absolutely remarkable.

Because if I wasn’t clear the first time, it’s bullshit.

Let’s invoke a thought-experiment and play said hypothetical out:

1. Stops sending weapons.

2. Bibi conveniently ignores intelligence if another real or false flag October-7th like attack.

3. Democrats lose with certainty, accused of both being Antisemitic (by Russian, Israeli bots, AIPAC, etc.) and leaving poor Israel defenseless against evildoer terrorists.

Ah yes. Sound strategy.

lol bullshit. This is showboating political theatrics.

Bibi and Trump are playing their respective games but make no mistake: Bibi already got everything he wanted moving forward. Couldn’t have been more obvious, too, that Bibi and Trump were in direct discussions about preventing a deal pre-election in order to help Trump win.

This is no different than Trump and Putin’s public optics, and no different to how Trump undermined the border security bill.

Judge wussied out; Lady Justice confirmed absent from the US.

Buckle up, folks. We’re in for a wild ride.

At the same time it’s risky to use small percentages of big populations even if it looks big. If you cast a net big enough, you can drum up thousands of pretty much anyone for pretty much anything (I wonder how many nurses you or doctors you could get to say they’re anti-vaxx). Not saying this doesn’t hold water but just take with a grain of salt.

“All those doctors are a buncha elitists, I tell ya! I’m on the macho manly carnivore diet and even the know-it-all doc says I only need THREE statins!”

Putting a convicted conman back into the WH and as leader of a wider organized crime group, the GOP. What could possibly go wrong?

AOC. She entered Congress in 2018 and was inspired by Sanders and shares his philosophy. She is the next iteration of him for sure.

I’m not them and I’d happily campaign my ass off for AOC, but I expect Whitmer. Who I’d take over the likes of Shapiro or Newsom any day.

To Wray’s credit, he testified that right-wing extremists were the #1 domestic terrorist threat.

If he was a Trump yes man, they would’ve just had him stay in. In reality, it’s probably closer to him just preserving his job prospects in the private sector and a bit of cowardice not dissimilar to Mueller and Comey.

“Violence is never the answer, but people can be pushed only so far,” Warren added. “This is a warning that if you push people hard enough, they lose faith in the ability of their government to make change, lose faith in the ability of the people who are providing the health care to make change, and start to take matters into their own hands in ways that will ultimately be a threat to everyone.”

Carl Sagan wrote in 1995:

I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time – when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness…

The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance

While there were always idiots, they often lacked the capacity to engage or equip themselves with such a sophisticated web of lies to prop up their beliefs. As such, Joe Schmoe from Bumfuck, Alabama had a limited platform and so could go on his blissfully ignorant way without much harm beyond his county line.

These days? They all communicate together and domestic and foreign operatives can reach them all the same to stoke division.

Crazy to watch.
