"Reminder that special counsel Hur's classified documents investigation exonerated President Biden and recommended no charges.

Trump, on the other hand, has been charged with dozens of counts for his alleged retention of nat'l security documents (which included nuclear secrets.)"

@rbreich

Will he also be exonerated of complicity to #genocide, ethnic cleansing and other #WarCrimes?

Because he will go down the history books as #GenocideJoe, I hope the Democrats are aware of this.

@ecpoir @rbreich I don't think the problem is if Biden are a good choice, but more that Trump is a bad and a worse choice all around.

But if that's the problem, there's gonna be legislative elections soon. The president may sign new laws but bithe chambers of the legislative write them.

@egermond @rbreich

There are several people who are no longer happy with this argument of Biden being "less worse" than Trump.

When there is a literal genocide happening with the blessings of Biden, he has to come up with a lot more than "not as bad as Trump".

@ecpoir @rbreich
That's actually my point: Biden is wrong. I'm not going around with that. And I'm tired too to have to always choose the lesser evil.

I'd love if the democrats could offer better (and they can and probably should).

But face it: the choice is between a weak support of a genocide and an open participation in a genocide, abroad and on land...

I'm not American, so that's not my choice: it's yours.

@ecpoir @egermond @rbreich

Given the implications for the world of another Trump presidency, maybe you ought to keep your opinion to yourself.

Biden is already pushing for a Palestinian state.
Trump said Netanyahu should "finish the job".
Biden will continue to support Ukraine and NATO.
Trump told Putin to "do whatever the hell you want" in Ukraine and will abandon NATO.
Biden will do his best to treat immigrants with respect.
Trump will round up and expell 10+M undocumented immigrants.

@joeinwynnewood @egermond @rbreich

Given the implications of the #genocide Biden is supporting in full force, even circumventing congress to send arms and money to the war criminals in #Israel, maybe the Democrats should come up with a better candidate.

If they continue to back #GenocideJoe and his policies, they are responsible for the election tragedy that will follow.

If you don't like reading the hard truth, that's your own problem. I won't be silenced by the "4 more years" clowns.

@ecpoir @egermond @rbreich

As an American who's voted in every election for over 40 years, having run for state senate, served on a county Party executive committee, and volunteered countless hours on dozens of campaigns, you have some nerve telling me what I should think or do.

The situation in Gaza is a manifestation of decades of decisions made by dozens of countries and leaders, elected, appointed and inherited.

Blaming President Biden is both ahistorical and myopic. Taking ...

@ecpoir @egermond @rbreich

that blame forward to enable the election of the gravest threat to American democracy and the stability of democracies across the world in over 75 years is borderline insane.

That is the hard truth you seem unable to grasp.

And yes, we are definitely done here.

@joeinwynnewood @egermond @rbreich

And of course he blocked me so I could not respond to his blubbering.

The situation in Gaza is a manifestation of decades vetoes by the USA in the UN security council.

"you have some nerve telling me what I should think or do."

I never did that but perhaps you are projecting because YOU did so earlier.

All the Biden desperate clowns should take a good look in the mirror, the rest of the world sees the blood in your hands.

@joeinwynnewood @egermond @rbreich

Ahistorical is to say that the USA is not responsible for most of the wars & conflict during the past 7 decades.

Ahistorical is to forget that #Biden has always been a staunch zionist who has received MILLIONS in campaign support from #AIPAC. He is sold and paid for, he is a foreign agent in his own country.

Ahistorical is to forget that Biden bypassed Congress to arm #Israel's #genocide in #Gaza.

@rbreich

But watching the hearing just now, Republicans insist Hur DID NOT exonerate Biden, and that it's an amazing miscarriage of justice that Trump is being prosecuted while Biden walks for the exact same crimes.

WHILE ALSO claiming Trump committed no crimes.

Fucking bonkers.

@rbreich The current effort is to attempt to make people believe that POTUS has a memory problem. In the meantime, #HonestDonsUsedCars can't remember not to crap his pants.

@Ralph058
Rumor: Trump shit his pants
Press briefing: Trump has not shit his pants
Trump on Truth social: I shit my pants on purpose!
@rbreich

@rbreich yes, Robert, but what was the reasoning to not press charges?

Don't get me wrong, as I very much support #Biden2024 but let's also be realistic about his cognitive decline.
