Just two months ago, Biden said that the invasion of Rafah is a “red line” Israel must not cross.

Final phase, now where have I heard something similar?

That was intentional, I'll bet.

Dear "journalists", if your headline contains the word "slams", I just assume it's a poorly written article and I don't read it

Slams them with the door until they're dead

In this case, it's more literal than figurative. Cops did slam people to the ground, both students and elderly professors alike.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes but the title claims Biden slammed them.

...I'd love to see him try, honestly.

I think we could get good pay per view numbers on that.

We bill it as "Octogenarians in the Octagon".

I'm voting for the wizard

Banning young people's favorite app and then doubling down on the genocide is not the sort of strategy that wins elections.

So you are ready to vote for his competition?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes! I have voted third party and intend on continuing.

A vote for third-party looks like a vote for anti-vax alien conspiracies, but is really a vote for Trump. Take a bow: you sure showed them.

Mooooooommmmmm, the liberals and libertarians are fighting again!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

ur dumb

a vote for a third party is a vote for a third party. They count the votes for the person who you voted for. That's literally how voting works. Read a book.

I guess the Zionist crowd is more important to him than most young people, then. What a shame.

If genocide Joe loses it's his fault

seems like he's been actively trying to lose the election for months

It's like he's old and wants to retire but if he tries to leave on his own the DNC is going to kill his dog.
