With legislation almost certain to fail given bipartisan backing for Israel, administration’s decision to weigh in shows desire for party to maintain pro-Israel stance after election
Yeah the Biden administration is going down as a terrible Presidency.
No punishment for January 6th, escalated war, lost reproductive healthcare rights for women, no functional student loan action, resulted in a more focused Republican party and Project 2025. Genocide in the middle east.
Now it’s scorched earth on the way out. “But he tried his best” get the fuck out of here.
We would have been better off if Trump just finished his second term. It wouldn’t be any worse than right now except the Republican Party would be on their way OUT in January instead of coming back in with determination and a new focus and a chip on their shoulder.
Cutting Trump off in 2021 and letting him come back four years later without punishment is the equivalent to letting a rabid dog out after you finally caught him. You think it’s going to be easy to stop him again?
Fuck Joe Biden. And Merrick Garland is a traitor.
I get the sentiment but at least in my view Biden has had an overall reasonably productive term with the fatal flaw that he was trying to be “reasonable” with the GOP when he really shouldn’t have been.
Define “productive”. He did very little, and much of what he did was late in the presidency or undercut by the courts. What do you think is his biggest accomplishment?
Meanwhile, the Biden administration has been privately working to push back against the Senate legislation, with officials from the White House, State Department and Pentagon reaching out to various lawmakers on the fence about how they might vote, one US official told The Times of Israel.
Source remained unnamed, basically “trust us bro.”
Considering the Biden admin just vetoed a UN Security Council resolution for a ceasefire and release of hostages, the idea that this is a “trust us bro” situation is willful blindness. At this point I’m just going to assume either Biden will do whatever Israel wants on his own free will, or they have some serious blackmail on him.
