    Did anyone watch the Republican response where she tried to blame Biden's immigration policies for the rape and sexual trafficking of a Mexican 12 year old? She definitely claimed it happened in USA; she didn't say when.
    This guy researched it. Started in 2012 when Bush was still president and all of it took place in Mexico! Had nothing to do with Biden or immigration. Somehow I am still amazed that these people have no shame.

    Makes you wonder how much power the cartels would have if the US would just adopt policies that would remove demand for the drugs that fund the cartels...

    Biden is going to get crushed in Michigan. If he loses in Michigan, he's not winning the presidency. The building of a port in 30-60 days in Gaza is absolutely humiliating to America.

    Best thing to do is to dump Biden after the primaries and bring in Newsom.

    Yeah, that's democracy. After all primaries, someone decides not to run person who won, instead substitute a candidate who isn't running.

    What's wrong with a port in Gaza?

    We have to run the aid through IDF to make sure it gets let into Gaza. That's absolutely humiliating when we're giving them billions upon billions.

    Meanwhile, Joe keeps giving Israel the weapons to continue their campaign of genocide.

    This was to placate his base and nothing more.

    It isn't working.

    Why stop there when you've worked so hard to keep candidates off the ballot...

    I wonder how many Gazans will be killed in the building of the port?

    Asking starving people to wait 30-60 days for a port to be built. Way to show you care Joe.


    Biden has the leverage to force Netanyahu’s hand in Gaza: Bishara

    They are and have been air dropping supplies and will continue until the new base is intact. You have to tell the whole story.

    And giving the bombs to air drop on Gaza in the mean time... You have to tell the whole story.

    Once again living in some alternate reality. Challengers to Biden are not kept of the ballot. They just aren't considered serious (Marianne Williamson?) so aren't getting votes. No one is keeping Newsom off ballots because he isn't running.

    And, ironically, these air drops have killed at least 5 Gazans so far.

    Let's do better.

    I've posted this before but thought I'd add this as well.

    Air drops will never fill the need of food and supplies that Gaza needs right now. Joe using pressure on Ben to open the borders for the aid to get into Gaza would go a long way to ending the hunger crisis Israel is creating.

    Anyone who believes Israel is allowing aid in, isn't getting the truth. I am watching too many reports of aid waiting a week, then being allowed in, or turned around and told to leave. Of course, the fact that other countries are air dropping aid, as well as the starving Palestinians themselves, already prove that not enough supplies are getting in anyway. So arguing to the contrary would be plain ignorant.

    I'm in no way a supporter of bombing Gaza but supplies and medical help help fill in the gaps ...I've watched a closeup of the exodus of Palestinians immediately after the war started and the vast majority have moved to the south and left the West Bank and ground zero . Some folks refused to leave their homes....there's nothing to justify the genocide of Palestinian civilians ...this is a Shia vs Sunni distinction..the Arab nations should step in and become peacemakers as they are at odds with the Shia already. Hezbollah is Shia and Shia are backed by Iran...we're supporting the efforts against Iranian backed militias and unfortunately Israel just wanted to wipe out everybody....hope this tells the whole story but it's the Shia that are responsible for Palestinians being in the line of fire and collateral damage over Hezbollah's anti Zionist jihad. Our military concern is to curb Irans foothold in the region and take out their militias.

    Iran is mostly Shia as is Hezbollah. Hamas is Sunni but propped up by Iran.

    Aiding Israel in the destruction of Hamas is one thing, bombing and killing civilians is another. This situation could have been handled so much better from the go.

    Biden is talking with the Arab nations about brokering peace, and trying to get more supplies to civilians in Gaza. He is also protecting the trade corridor from Iran backed militias.

    He is also telling Netanyahu to chill and stop attacking Gaza civilians. You can be allies with a nation, but still draw lines, and speak out. Glad he is doing this. Netanyahu is terrible for Israel. Just another self centered fearless leader who puts his own ambitions over what is best for his people.

    I don't understand how Netanyahu is still in power. Hasn't he been voted out a couple of times over the years?
