You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

"President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of abandoning Israel after the incumbent said he would not supply the country with weapons it could use to invade Rafah."
Trump wouldn't offer even the token pushback that Biden has, and would likely ramp up the payments and weapons supplied to Israel.
When he was president before, he already massively cut aid to Gaza, and would probably do so again.
That's how you go farther
Given that one side of the political spectrum has become staunchly against many aspects of reality, I disagree with your premise.
And Trump has said he wants it to go even farther.
It's not that they cut any in particular, they just only included the Bill of Rights, which isn't uncommon when pairing them with the Constitution. Not defending them, still a grift going on here, but that particular detail isn't as nefarious as some people want to think. At least, not on its own.
I believe this depends on the state/local laws.
Many people do, but not everyone. Religious people especially tend not to cohabitate before marriage, as that would be considered a sin.
No, that's the point of a dog whistle. Those in the know understand, and they don't want outsiders to notice. One of the best ways to combat these people is to let everyone in on their "secret" codes, so we can see exactly who is putting their hat in with the Nazis.
The Lady Astronaut series by Mary Robinette Kowal. The first book is called The Calculating Stars. Basically, an alternate history where (spoiler for the opening chapter) It follows a Jewish computer (a woman who literally runs calculations for NASA, as seen in Hidden Figures) who wants to become an astronaut, and her struggles with the racism and misogyny of the 1950s.spoiler
a meteor wipes out the east coast and kick-starts climate change, causing the Space Age to start 10 years early.
The only reason this happens is because our system is so weird. In every other country, funding is automatic and doesn't need to be authorized separately. The fix is to switch to a similar setup. Of course, that will never happen, as it would take away this bludgeon the GOP uses to try to get its way.

Unless they (somehow) get an amendment through, Musk is not eligible to be president. He wasn't born a citizen of the US.
