How the Biden administration tried to slow Israel’s invasion of Gaza
In the days after the Hamas invasion, the White House deployed the president’s top diplomats and military advisers in a frantic, prolonged mission to stave of a worst-case scenario of a wider Middle East conflict.
I don't think you slow something by dumping 10 billion on it imo

Why do they expect Israel to hold back when they fully back anything they choose to do? It's not like there will be any consequences, we all know how the realpolitik of this works, most certainly the Israelis. They could nuke Gaza and there wouldn't be a peep made.

Biden is behind closed doors, off the record saying all the things we want him to. -unamed source
Super high quality article from what I read. I am so stoked to vote for seniel old man again. Seniel old man does all the things I want.
In an article filled with public statements? And multiple public sources? Sure one part talks about an unnamed defense official, but I think that's an extremely disingenuous appraisal of the article. And it's hardly a vote Biden ad.
Also, learn to spell senile if you're going to insult people's intelligence.
Biden has been so busy fighting for $15 minimum wage.
No, I mean fighting for any of his campaign issues.
No, I mean selling weapons and nothing has fundamentally changed lol
Biden did issue an executive order mandating a $15 wage for federal contractors. It was blocked by a Trump-appointed judge.

He attempted to put it in a reconciliation package, but it was blocked by the Senate parliamentarian, so it would have required 60 votes to pass. The Senate had 50 Republicans at that time. I probably don't need to remind you about the literal circus that is the House right now.
So, given the impossibility of legislative action after an earnest attempt, he tried to unilaterally raise the wage for federal contractors that he may have had unilateral authority over, but a Trump-appointed judge stopped that.
You might notice a common thread of Republicans stopping both of these things, so it's genuinely fascinating that you then somehow condemn Biden as being the one at fault here, but perhaps I'm misunderstanding you.
this pro-union push really is how we get the workers rights we need. You wanna pass minimum wage? Every single company on earth wants your wage to stay low and they're putting money on our politicians g-strings to ensure they get everything they want.
