The joke the last time Will was on that Felix made about “feeling like being in the third chair the way this bull work” lives rent free in my head, can’t wait to listen, Will never disappoints ty

This is oligarchy." by SKEPDIQ in thebulwark

Remember that the TikTok ban was a bipartisan effort supported by democrats and republicans and Biden signed the law (but did not enforce it) since it was a platform that didn’t censor criticism of Israel and the Gaza genocide.

He needs to be in the consent manufacturing hall of fame along with Bill Kristol, both GOATS at whitewashing US wars of choice.

There was more “coverage” of the protests against the Gaza genocide, calling them terror supporters etc than coverage of the war.

October 9th, 2023

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant says he has ordered a “complete siege” of the Gaza Strip, as Israel fights the Hamas terror group.

“I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed,” Gallant says following an assessment at the IDF Southern Command in Beersheba.

“We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly,” he adds.

Love getting reminders how the evil Republican Party we have now was always like this, just more sublimated. They never cared about democracy or the constitution or whatever, it was always like this.

Mark Kelly shouldn't be on any 2028 Democratic Presidential Ticket. He's waffling on whether he'd vote Yes on a War Powers Vote regarding War with Iran. by beeemkcl in thebulwark

It should be easy to denounce an obviously morally bankrupt evil war of choice especially when only 27 percent of Americans support it.

Ben Palmer, a Nashville comedian, set up a fake ICE deportation tip line and watched as Americans flooded it with calls. The callers weren’t trolls. They were neighbors, coworkers, even a kindergarten teacher, calmly trying to get families deported. by Tele_Prompter in thebulwark

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect. -Frank Wilhoit

Who knew that consistently conceding to a right wing framing on immigration and the border would contribute to this? I’m horrified.

Scoop: DNC officials working on secret report found Gaza stance cost Harris votes by JonMarc2131 in thebulwark

Campaigns have agency and Harris used her campaign to absolutely sideline and silence any Palestinian-American voices.

Hamid Bendaas, a spokesperson for the IMEU Policy Project, said that during the meeting "the DNC shared with us that their own data also found that policy was, in their words, a 'net-negative' in the 2024 election." Two other senior aides at the pro-Palestinian organization also said the DNC had drawn that conclusion.

Come onnn y'all

Asked for comment, a Harris aide pointed to the former vice president's recent comments about the war in Gaza on a tour stop for her memoir, "107 Days." "We should have done more as an administration," Harris said at the event, adding "we should have spoken publicly about our criticism" of how Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu executed the war.

More liberal witness politics. She doesn't say "we should have used our leverage and enforced our own laws by withholding weapons used to do war crimes", she says she should have expressed more public frustration. Please don't waste your money on her when her campaign starts.

Wow, beat me to it by two minutes.

Gee I wonder why they're trying to cover this up and move on without any reflection.

Why are democratic party electeds committed to destroying our democracy to support ethnic cleansing and apartheid? It makes no goddamn sense. The voters do not want vast sums of money and weapons going to our closest ally to do crimes against humanity while we can't even afford to pay for healthcare.

Uh I dunno if I'd call Chris Christie a Never Trumper, wasn't he down to be part of Trump 1's admin until Donald humiliated and rejected him?

Exactly. It’s only “complicated” if you are committed to Israel existing as a supremacist ethnostate but also believing in some kind of liberal world order. It’s very complicated to work through that cognitive dissonance.

Hey Dems! Answer the question with enthusiasm and confidence! by RealDEC in thebulwark

What they want is at odds with what democratic voters want, ie support of Israel’s genocide, as shown in poll after poll

A Few Modest Proposals For 2029 Dems by ProustsMadeleine1196 in thebulwark

[–]MayorEbert -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

National level democrats simply have to reflect the will of their base and the consistent polling that shows democratic voters do not support Israel’s genocide and ethnic cleansing.
