Behind the scenes, Biden has grown angry and anxious about re-election effort
  • Early in the article: "Poll numbers have dropped due to his handling of Israel and Hamas"

    Hmm, how could he handle this one? Stop sending weapons and $$$ to Israel?

    Later in the article: "Some advisers have told him he should walk faster out of concern that his gait feeds impressions that he’s too old"

  • Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right
  • I'm thinking of switching to Tidal. I've had YouTube music for awhile and I like it, but I just learned they fired a huge chunk of their staff after they unionized and that pissed me off. Anybody know how their rock and jazz selection is, especially with smaller lesser known artists?

  • Unforseen
  • yes it has been every presidents policy, and it's always been unacceptable. the current crisis is particularly Bad because it has been sped up by a factor of about 100. 10000 children dead in 4 months. Biden is a monster.

  • Unforseen
  • Is Biden perfect? No, he just continues to over and over again over months and months to commit genocide! He also does good things! He's getting the trains to run on time!

  • Biden announces U.S. will airdrop food aid into Gaza
  • my guess is that later we will hear "gosh darnit we really tried with the food and it didn't quite get there" meanwhile not one arms shipment will ever be late.

    This is Biden creating a headline to try to slow down or stop people from becoming aware that he is (along with the rest of our govt) committing genocide

  • Serious rule
  • Yes and it also, obviously, wouldnt satisfy those who want Israel to control the whole area. And there would still be conflict that would have to be resolved from decades of violence on both sides. But it is an easy first step that the international community could enforce and it would start dialing down tensions. But because of my country (US), the world is never allowed to take that step.

  • Serious rule
  • To all the people saying there isn't an easy solution: you are wrong, the solution is actually very easy, easier than most international problems. It's the solution the entire political world has been willing to get behind for 50 years or so. If I remember correctly it's that Israel return to its 1967 borders and get rid of its nuclear weapons. Every couple years the UN votes on this, the results are always like 230 to 2. The whole world agrees, except for Israel and the US, and the US vetoes it every time.

    Imagine getting 99% of the world to agree to something, and thinking the problem is too complicated to solve.

  • REVOLUTION!!!

    white made a mistake letting them get this organized and this close, but can they still win?

    Can we pin upcoming climate actions to the top of the page?

    There is a big march for a better climate future in NYC tomorrow it would be nice to see it "advertised". We could do the same for any significant upcoming action?

    Karakatsanis breaks down the propaganda better than anybody
    open.substack.com What we don't tell people

    I’m taking a little break from writing these posts because I’ve been asked to turn the newsletter into a book on Copaganda. That is taking up a lot of the time I’m not working on our civil rights cases. But, in researching for the book, I kept coming across a pattern that I wanted to write about:
