[Dan Sheehan @danpjsheehan]

I can think of no more perfect image to encapsulate the modern Democratic Party than this sundowning butcher, this lamest of lame ducks, doddering out of the rose garden to press the KILL MORE PALESTINIANS button for the 100th time like it’s a morphine pump in a hospice.

Was in the audience for The Muppet Show and these two people in the balcony showed absolutely zero decorum. I tried to tell them that their ironic detachment is hurting how they engage with art, but they told me I should engage with a better deodorant. Then I cried

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza.

We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled.

This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

Biden's legacy is genocide, war, and nuclear brinkmanship. That's all anyone should talk about when this psychopath finally dies. Anything positive he may have accomplished in his political career is a drop in the ocean compared to the significance of these mass-scale abuses.

Biden spent his entire career promoting war and militarism at every opportunity, and then spent the sunset years of his time in Washington choosing to continue supplying an active genocide that is fully dependent on US-supplied arms.

He refused off-ramp after off-ramp to the horrific war in Ukraine that has wiped out a generation of men in that country, which he knowingly provoked by amassing a military proxy threat on Russia's border in ways the US would never tolerate being amassed on its own border. In the early weeks of the conflict Biden and his fellow empire managers sabotaged peace talks to keep the war going for as long as possible with the goal of bleeding Moscow, and at one point his own intelligence agencies reportedly assessed that the probability of a nuclear war erupting on this front was as high as 50-50.

Coin toss odds on nuclear war. To call this a crime against humanity would be a massive understatement.

Biden has been facilitating the expansion of Israeli atrocities in the middle east with US military expansionism in the region and bombing operations in Yemen, Iraq and Syria. He will spend his lame duck months backing the expansion of Israel's scorched earth demolition of southern Lebanon.

This is who Biden is. It is who he has always been. It is true that his brain has begun to rot away like just like his conscience has rotted, but in his lucid moments he adamantly defends his administration's decisions as the only correct course of action, and it aligns perfectly with his past. To know this, one need only to look at the pivotal role he played in pushing the Iraq invasion, or his extremist rhetoric about how “If there were not an Israel we’d have to invent one.”

This is the legacy that Democrats were forced to spend the last election cycle pretending is great and awesome. It's no wonder they lost. So now, as a parting gift from Joe Biden, Americans and the world get another four years of Donald Trump.

That's the story of Joe Biden. That's the whole entire thing. Anything on top of that is irrelevant narrative fluff.

[Brandy Jensen @BrandyLJensen]

what should the democrats do differently? for answers we’re looking to one strategist who was personally responsible for their defeat, and a conservative who wants them to lose again

[Miriam Brett @MiriamBrett]

Turns out not dramatically improving people’s lives, not mobilising your base, offering vibes in place of economic transformation, pivoting to winning moderate conservatives who largely don’t exist, dredging up old establishment figures, and funding a genocide didn’t cut it

Israeli killer drone maker Elbit Systems was forced to close its booth after protests inside and outside the exhibition in Tokyo.

[A Left-Wing Account ™️ @PushDemsLeft]

Israel’s possession of unregulated nuclear weapons makes it illegal for the US to send them military aid.

Biden and Kamala know this, but there isn’t a law they aren’t willing to break to continue Israel’s gen*cide of Palestine.

[onion person @CantEverDie]

i think the democratics party strategy of appealing to no one but the people they’re supposedly running against to defeat while alienating their own base is probably going to work out long term

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

We were always headed to this point. At some point they were going to have to stop lying about self-defense and human shields and taking out Hamas and just go "Haha yeah we're stealing a bunch of Palestinian land actually." They've been lying for a whole year, with western help.

[Inside the QB Studio with Michael Balls Penix @RuckCohlchez]

it was kinda cool those three weeks Kamala campaigned on "Republicans are weird and we're not going back" before deciding to pivot to "Republicans are my friends and they're good and we can do Republican policy even better than they can," the strategy that already lost to Trump

[Hamilton Nolan @hamiltonnolan]

All of western civil society denounced Saudi Arabia for butchering one journalist. The Israeli government has killed more than 120 journalists in the past year. There is no bigger threat to press freedom on earth.

[Just Foreign Policy @justfp]

If @CENTCOM is helping "coordinate Israel’s retaliation" on Iran, that is a direct violation of US law.

Unless Congress authorizes US military action, Pentagon cannot "coordinate" the "military forces of any foreign country" if "such forces will become engaged in hostilities"

[GoliathFan1952 @ByYourLogic]

in the same way that every Biden “red line” equates to an explicit acknowledgement of what he’s going to allow next, Israeli “evacuation orders” are just taunting announcements that they’re going to kill everyone who tries to flee and then hit the “safe zone” moments later

So apparently very late in the development of the museum, we’re talking *days* before it opened, Nintendo put in a “Storage” exhibit on the 2nd floor; and this corner is dedicated to prototype Nintendo hardware. Literally gasped when I saw this exhibit and what was on display.

The time Kris Kristofferson consoled Sinead O'Connor after she was booed mercilessly for telling the truth on SNL in 1992.

It costs nothing to be a decent human being.

God speed Kris Kristofferson.

[Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson]

You're about to see a major demonstration of "manufacturing consent" unfold in real time. Objectively, revelations about Biden admin lying so it could illegally fund Israel should be a massive front page, Iran Contra level scandal.
Now watch how the US press treats it.
