  1. No, the story is pretty straight forward. An Israeli Cyber-Security expert was arrested in a Child Porn scheme. The Trump admin got him released on behalf of Israel. Not the first time this has happened, either. This is exactly what happened with Epstein in Florida.
  2. But I'm sure he's going to get to the bottom of all this Epstein stuff!
  3. Very obviously the case.
  4. What's the complaint here? Seems like the situation was handled effectively.
  5. If only he had any success negotiating deals in the two most deadly conflicts going on - Ukraine and Gaza. Instead, he's actively enabled the perpetrators.
  6. His top ally is committing a genocide with his endorsement and he struck Iran with missiles. He's not getting the peace prize lmao. You live in a fantasy world.
  7. They were restored this morning after outrage.
  8. Translation: "Oops, they noticed."
  9. I literally gave you the link to see for yourself, but you’re so intellectually lazy you couldn’t be bothered lol.
  10. The text of the Constitution on the official government site has been edited to remove Sections 9 and 10. It just so happens these are the sections that cover Judicial Review and Habeas Corpus. Does Trump not want people reading about these Constitutional Rights? Imagine if Joe Biden did something like this.
  11. Yes, that's why we created the Geneva Conventions. And Israel is blatantly violating them. I am applying the law fairly to all participants. You want a special exemption for Israel because you don't think Arabs are human.
  12. Yes, two wrongs don't make a right. We teach this foundational moral principle to our toddlers. Why can't you wrap your head around it?
  13. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba
  14. Not anymore, fortunately. Enormous sea change here over the past 5 years. New Gallup poll just came out today showing only 32% of Americans support Israel's actions in Gaza. Fortunately, this forum is not a good representative of the American public. It's a far-right echo chamber in here.
  15. Don't ethnically cleanse 750k people from their ancestral homeland then complain when they try to take it back.
  16. We've passed the point of no return in Gaza. Netanyahu is openly talking about ethnic cleansing. Even if we were to start pumping food into Gaza, many would still die because they are at the point of starvation where serious medical intervention is needed and Israel has completely destroyed the medical infrastructure in Gaza. Over the last several months, 1000 civilians have been shot by the IDF and GHF contractors while waiting for the little food Israel allowed in (all while Israel is paying ISIS affiliated groups to steal the aid). The death toll will easily end up in the 6 figures. The West Bank is next. They've already started ramping up operations there. 10 years from now, people like @mspart will claim he "didn't know" what was happening. Nobody should let them off the hook. They are holocaust deniers.
  17. Keep telling yourself that
  18. Will he pardon Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for her false testimony to bail him out of his Epstein mess?
  19. You’re being needlessly obtuse. Do you think I’m trying to provide an excuse for her? I’m not. Bill Clinton spearheaded the Democratic turn right on economics that led to a steady 30 year-long decline in performance amongst working class, populist voters that used to vote Dem pretty reliably. Trump’s victory was the culmination of that process and a complete rebuke to the neoliberal wing of the Democratic Party. Sanders’ success in the primary among that same demographic was an early warning sign of what was happening.
  20. Of course she was a horrible candidate. Those things aren't mutually exclusive. She shares the same political vision as her husband and ran on that vision. She was the archetypal corporate democrat. Obama succeeded because he ran against it in 2008 (go back and watch how viciously he attacked her in the primary) and then was a uniquely charismatic figure that was able to hold his coalition together via his own personality. It helped that he only had to clear the Bush admin bar of not starting another global financial meltdown or disastrous war. Him selling out the vision he sold was another major blow to the old democrat coalition. People forget that Obama won a state like Indiana. Unthinkable now for any democrat.
