US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[Meat Target]

Or just ask mainstream conservatives why is Israel called the United States' greatest ally?

Something something muh Judeo-Christian Values (ignoring that Orthodox Jews in the Holy Land vandalize churches and treat Christians like shit).

Per Bibi himself, its israel first and everyone else last.

He has a point about the Hague. Any nation that wants to survive cannot be bothered by the whinging of a bunch of pin-headed Swedes (or wherever the hell the Hague is, IDGAF) who want you to bow down and present your asshole to your enemies.

There's a reason the US hasn't agreed to be subject to the ICC.

 

[mandatorylurk]

Hague is Netherlands. The ICC is one of those fake things like the UN where bourgeois western europeans can pretend they're saving the world. They already have their nice brownstone or upper class apartment with 0 kids, they don't have to worry about anything, their security guards on the first floor are from Turkey or Senegal, so that shows they're progressive!

We really should have a updated list of true closest allies. It used to be Canada>UK>Australia>Japan but these days it's just Japan and they're waiting for Orange Man to return, I wouldn't trust any of the english speaking countries anymore with their current regimes in place.

 

[The Ugly One]

No one knows just who is coming through the southern border, other than it's mostly Central Americans and Venezuelans and a strange amount of Haitians and god knows what else.

The #1 ethnic group crossing the border illegally is Chinese.

 

[namelesstacotruck]

all they need is Trump's federal charged rest doesn't matter.

The one with a judge who looks like is going to sink it or the one that went to the supreme court? The Georgia one took a non post trial appeal which basically never happens.

The one he is at right now has the best shot of convicted felon label being applied to him before the election. But even CNN is saying it will collapse on appeal and no normal jury would convict.

 

[BobbyBriggs69420]

Strain that old heart just a little too much with just the smallest adverse reaction, and there's a legitimate risk it just quits....,bury that autopsy report when it would be the story of the decade for someone to break.

If the story did break they'd charge the doctor with assassination, I can't explain their motivations for doing so but you know they would.

The speed dosing Dr I mean not the one who tries to save Joe but maybe him too for fun.

 

[Phoneposter]

This is the guy they swear is going to steal votes from Trump.

[Wimbydong]

Fani Willis (Trump's Georgia prosecutor) won the Democratic primary today. She'll face one Courtney Kramer in the general to retain her DA position.

 

[Your Girlfriend's Dad]

I have to admit I didn't think he'd live more than a few years after the last election. I was wrong, but the way he looks and moves in the last 9 months, how can anyone expect him to go on much longer? Doesn't make any sense.

As somebody who worked on an ambulance for over a decade, I've seen people who had spent 20+ years withering into an immobile husk kept alive by dialysis as an affront to God and all things holy.

Unironically, this dude could live another twenty years as a brain dead husk. Sometimes that's just how the dice fall.

 

[AnotherPleb]

Judge whatshisfuck came right out and said he'd reject a verdict other than guilty. The fix is in.

All it takes is one or two obstinate jurors to say 'fuck you, not guilty' to hang that jury the same way that judge should be hung.

Or just ask mainstream conservatives why is Israel called the United States' greatest ally?

Cuckservative Christianity where they think they will be rewarded for losing with dignity when Armageddon happens.

The speed dosing Dr I mean not the one who tries to save Joe but maybe him too for fun.

If they did, it'd be a retarded idea. Aside from stirring distrust among the internal actual experts you need to keep things going, that very same doctor your trying to jail for life for participating in helping your plans to keep Joe going is now going to have a vested interest in letting it all out - He's literally a dead man anyway, and there's going to be a trial.

I'm sure they could bury or burn enough evidence to throw a big old doubt over the claims, but there's already so much doubt about biden, shit going down, and Boeing using the discount hitman method already that the public is primed to be on the lookout for fuckery. I don't even think the left being angry would be enough fuel for the fire, they're already struggling to guide it and rather than seeing it all as a right wing conspiracy, they're more likely to bite onto the deep state arguments when evidence 'disappears' and end up going their own crazy way.

 

[Betonhaus]

The #1 ethnic group crossing the border illegally is Chinese.

I feel like this is something that should be ringing even the backup alarm bells, as the main ones have clearly failed.

Well I can't see Elon being a worse host then any of the shits at cnn, fox or msnbc.

 

[Meat Target]

I feel like this is something that should be ringing even the backup alarm bells, as the main ones have clearly failed.

We have senators (Mark Kelly and Mitch McConnell) taking money from Pooh Bear's cronies, papers of record repeating ChiCom propaganda verbatim, ads for Temu plastered everywhere, and major universities employing PLA spies.

Abandon all hope that the bugmen will ever be held accountable for anything.

 

[namelesstacotruck]

All it takes is one or two obstinate jurors to say 'fuck you, not guilty' to hang that jury the same way that judge should be hung.

Cuckservative Christianity where they think they will be rewarded for losing with dignity when Armageddon happens.

A judge has to declare that the jury is hung and that there is a mistrial.

A judge normally has to give in because they have to do other court cases but New Yorks entire establishment is behind this judge and would support him taking 4 months (but not 5) of keeping that jury locked down until they break down and are unaminous. The judge can also start fucking with the jury and start swapping them out to force a verdict. All it would take is one tds juror reporting bullshit to the judge.

 

[Gehenna]

No matter what obvious bs a witness says there is always some idiot stupid enough to believe it on a jury. Never underestimate the stupidity of the average jury. Remember OJ and that twit that killed her kid, had the kids blood in the trunk and still got acquitted by the jury

I kind of think a hung jury is the best case scenario.

In both cases above we know more or less for a fact that they knew the guy was guilty but said Not-Guilty anyway. So no it is not juries being dumb, its them being activists.

And, to be clear, I still hold what I said when the jury was announced. The -best- case scenario here is a hung jury, because several absolutely will do that. That doesn't mean they believe Cohen though.

Fani must be real good on her back there's literally no other explanation for why the DNC would waste so much money getting her reelected after she fucked their case so hard. Then again I guess if one of the DA's in charge of one of the cases you are desperately trying to make work gets voted out that might make you look pretty bad, and everyone already knows you rig elections what's one more rig between friends?

Biden's approval on Israel hits another low as conflict continues​

WASHINGTON (TND) — President Joe Biden’s approval of his handling of the war in Gaza is continuing to slide as voters on both sides of the issue are frustrated with the administration’s response and how the war is playing out.
The White House is facing pressure from both sides of the aisle as the war is stretching into its seventh month with no clear path to an ending in the near-term outlook as Israel continues operations in Rafah with cease-fire talks at a standstill despite prodding from the administration and other international diplomats.
A Harvard CAPS/Harris poll released this week found Biden has a 36% job approval rating on dealing with the conflict, down from 39% last month and 44% in October when Hamas launched its terrorist attack that started the war.
Biden and his administration have shifted their tone since the war’s first days from blanket support to Israeli military missions to a more nuanced view of limiting civilian casualties and seeking a way out of the war as the fighting has continued into its seventh month and the Palestinian death toll has mounted.
He has ramped up his calls for ceasefire and publicly pressured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to act more carefully when it comes to what happens next in the war. Biden paused a $1 billion shipment of U.S.-made weapons to Israel last week over concerns about a large civilian death toll in Rafah before ultimately deciding to move forward with it.


Despite the recent rebukes of some of Israel’s choices in the war, Biden and his administration have also stuck by its ally after the International Criminal Court’s chief prosecutor sought arrest warrants against Netanyahu and defense minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity.
“The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous. And let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas. We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security,” Biden said in a statement Monday.
The president is trying to walk a fine line between supporting a crucial ally in a region known for instability while trying to minimize the humanitarian crisis that has enveloped Gaza as the fighting has expanded.
The shift in Biden’s policies is being seen by voters as driven by domestic politics rather than national security concerns, with 53% of people in the survey saying “perceived domestic politics”
Protests that swept across college campuses earlier this year have also fueled concerns that younger voters may not support Biden at the same levels they did in 2020, a blow that would be difficult for him to overcome and win another four years in the Oval Office. However, it’s unclear how big of a factor the war will have by the time voters head to polling places to make final choices and if it will overpower more typical concerns like the economy.
Several polls have found that despite the widespread attention the protests have received, younger Americans’ priorities are more likely to follow a typical voter, ranking the economy, inflation and being able to find a job higher than the war in Gaza.
“Coverage of the protests have created the perception that this is the No. 1 issue for young people,” said David McLennan, a professor of political science and director of the Meredith Poll. “They're worried about housing prices, and can they afford rent? Can they have a job? That's where most Americans are, they care about the Israel-Palestinian situation, but they care more about their own circumstances.”

Domestic issues tend to dominate voter concerns as they head to cast a ballot in November. The economy, inflation and the situation at the border are the most common responses to the biggest problems facing the country despite a first four years that has been filled with foreign policy issues Biden has had to navigate.
A chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, followed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war have been central issues that have dominated the administration’s time and resources, including getting Congress to continue to pass military aid despite some resistance from GOP lawmakers. Countering China is also increasingly important for lawmakers in Washington and the administration.
The war in Israel and continued U.S. support for it has drawn significant attention in headlines, but how much it will ultimately mean for whether Biden or former President Donald Trump win another term is less clear.

I think it will be a hung jury because all but one will vote guilty because NY and they are retarded. If he is found not guilty the narrative media will explode in the greatest corn harvest we have ever seen.

The smart move either way would have been for Merchan to dismiss the charges that are built on NO law broken as presented by the prosecution and honestly after this no one should put any stock, faith, or respect in the system.

Time to throw some tea in the harbor.

She's black, has tits and a vag. That's it fam. Its not hard.
If Fani was a straight, white male, they would have been thrown to the wolves long ago.
Better to back a stonk black female who don't need no man than ATL burning to the ground under Biden or be called a racist.
