Hamas members parade the coffins of Kfir and Ariel Bibas, a baby and a preschooler whom a Hamas member strangled after they were abducted to Gaza on 10/7/2023, in front of a crowd of Gazans.

Bullshit.

The people you're supporting strangled a kidnapped baby and a preschooler and then paraded their coffins in front of an admiring crowd of Gazans.

The flotilla rubes weren't even bringing actual amounts of aid. Lots of Hamas pamphlets, though.

Brett Kavanaugh’s Racial Profiling Opinion Is Looking Sillier By the Day Kavanaugh said that immigration agents β€œpromptly” release people after determining that they are legal U.S. residents. They don’t.

Kavanaugh recently suggested immigration stops are no big deal if you're a legal resident bc ICE just promptly releases you

That is not, in fact, what ICE does

He invents a fiction bc the reality of the policies he supports is too disturbing for him to imagine

It depends where you are. My best friend's ex was from the US and broke his back while visiting Toronto. This was 25 years ago, but the ER visit, x-rays, and a CT scan cost him CDN$300.

A quote from PLO spokesman Zohair Mohsen, from an article published on 31 March 1977, reading "There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians, and Lebanese. We are part of one people, the Arab nation. I have family members with Palestinian, Jordanian, and Syrian citizenship. We are one people. Only for political reasons we do carefully maintain our Palestinian identity. Indeed, it is of national importance for Arabs to insist on the substance of a Palestinian people to oppose Zionism. No, the existence of a separate Palestinian people is only for tactical reasons."

How can you "genocide" a group of people whose population is growing, and who aren't one ethnic, racial, or religious group, and whose "nation" literally only exists as a political tool of Arab nationalists and Islamist supercessionists to oppose Israel? Stop believing antisemitic propaganda.

A screenshot of an article from the Wall Street Journal with the headline "Gaza Chief's Brutal Calculation: Civilian Bloodshed Will Help Hamas," which talks about an interview with Yahya Sinwar where he said Hamas' policy is to put civilians in harm's way so the international community will try to pressure Israel into stopping their military operations prematurely, leaving Hamas capable of launching further genocidal campaigns against Israel in service of its stated goal of eradicating Jews and Judaism from the birthplace of Judaism and replacing multicultural, multiethnic, liberal-democratic Israel with an Iranian client-state Islamist dictatorship.

They were trying to run a military blockade set up to interdict the flow of weapons, money, and materiel to a listed terrorist group, for God's sake! Hamas are exploiting your goodwill so they can advance their goal of turning Israel into a Judenrein Islamist dictatorship. Useful Idiots.

The only "genocide" in human history where the population in question goes UP over time and not DOWN, and starvation that is entirely Hamas' fault. Stop playing into Hamas' hands.

There's no genocide in Gaza. 60K dead over two years out of 1.5M isn't even above replacement rate. The population is growing - that's definitionally NOT genocide. There's also no apartheid because Palestinians aren't Israeli citizens so they can't be 2nd class citizens. Stop with the blood libels.

Before shedding tears for the people of Gaza, remember that they created Hamas, elected it, supported it, supplied it,worked for it, hid it, sheltered it, filled its ranks and celebrated all of its atrocities.

They could go home, instead of rushing in to do the government of Gaza's job for them, thus freeing up more Hamas cash to spend on weapons with which to murder more Jews.

All blue states. What a surprise. I guess all we can do is vote out every single Republican candidate for every office in those states since none of them will speak up or do anything. And the Appropriations Chair Susan Collins.

If you're blaming the Democrats for the shutdown of a government that is run entirely by Republicans, why stop there?

Go wild, man. Blame the shutdown on leprechauns, or the Seattle Mariners, or maybe the cast of "She's the Sheriff."

You've decided facts don't matter, so have some fun with it!

It’s useful to think of Christian Nationalism as a subculture like any other, with one important difference. THIS subculture thinks of itself as the default β€œnormal” culture of β€œreal Americans,” but which is also under siege by β€œthe dominant culture.”

They should take their idiot performative bullshit and go home. But Hamas is delighted with it, at least.

Just astounding. The reason they can shove through 100 Trump nominees at once is because the GOP changed the rules to eliminate the 60-vote requirement. Something they won’t do to fund the government. Yet they blame Dems.

Here’s 3 full minutes of @kaitlancollins trying to get @SpeakerJohnson to admit undocumented people can’t get federal health care, and Johnson repeating the lie over and over anyway.

Republicans are kicking people off insurance then lying about who they’re doing it to.
