the number of victims and scale of destruction during the genocide is bad... but the perpetrators are very, very good

they're mildly critical, but follow up any mild criticism with "don't get me wrong though, i'm still campaigning and voting for Biden"

Only thing that was really noteworthy was one of them actually did a mad post about how the whole "Oh jeez, guys. I know it looks like I'm at the ice cream parlour sharing a milkshake with my bestie Netanyahu, but privately I'm just so fricking mad. Steaming, really." just makes Biden look weak as hell and pathetic and he didn't understand how they couldn't grasp that. Which felt novel for someone in their position.

But yeah, a lot of polite pushback with assurances that they're still with Biden.

the people who supported the war will be and have been rewarded, platformed, and praised. the people who said otherwise have been jailed, harassed, and driven from civil society. all of this will be treated with a shrug as you've said and anyone who wrote a "mournful" retrospective will be pushing the next big war when that one comes around.

Democrats just banded together to rescue one of the most far right Republicans in Congress. Mike Johnson will continue leading the House of Representatives thanks to overwhelming support from Democrats in a confidence vote

Before becoming a politician, Johnson was a top lawyer for the hate group Alliance Defending Freedom and argued to the Supreme Court that being gay should be illegal.

What did he do to win Democrats' support? He passed $60+ billion of spending for the war in Ukraine!

The key to defeating Trump is to tell everyone how bad he is and how awful his policies would be for the country. That's why they're propping up Johnson, because someone with even more odious beliefs than Trump or Johnson might get near power, and we can't have that!

these are things you would never do if you thought the republicans were truly the existential threat you claim they are

Nichael,

This is Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. I know we haven't always seen eye to eye on the issues, but the threats facing our Democracy are too big to let minor disagreements get in the way of victory in November. From Gaza to Ukraine, Yemen to Taiwan, to right here at home, the forces that want to take away your right to vote and end our Democracy forever are on the advance. That's why I'm joining with my esteemed colleagues like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Bernie Sanders to ask for your help. For just $27, you can take a stand in defense of Democracy. Even better, every donation will be matched 5X for a limited time!

As a Delawarean, I know you can't stand loony bats like MTG helping the enemies of our fine institutions tear down everything that makes the liberal world order great. Help Delaware's favorite son make the world safe for Democracy today!

Mr. Trump and Mr. Biden are essentially tied among 18-to-29-year-olds and Hispanic voters, even though each group gave Mr. Biden more than 60 percent of their vote in 2020. Mr. Trump also wins more than 20 percent of Black voters — a tally that would be the highest level of Black support for any Republican presidential candidate since the enactment of the Civil Rights Act of 1964

The bubble is completely wild. It’s not enough to say “I’m grudgingly voting for Joe” you have to love him. he has to be the best ever. And since he’s the best ever and everyone loves him, all the polls must be fake.

https://www.tiktok.com/embed/6934907872308448518 You can check their account and videos here. Apparently the original video was only live on their account for like three days to begin with. I'm unsure what their current opinions are on voting for Biden, though. I don't have the time to dig through their posts and comments to find out.
