I'm curious which nations we expect to start seeing us as a force for good when we cut ties with Israel I feel like there's some mixing up of cause and effect here.

A thing that was very clear at the time is that while it’s true that the United States has a lot of leverage, Israel is a sovereign nation with its own politics, and Netanyahu was, in addition to leading a coalition of aspiring genocidaires, literally going to go prison if the war stopped

Biggest reason Schmitt screwed up is Schmitt & his staffers probably never stopped & thought “eh, I dunno guys, that sounds nothing like Jake Smith, that dude is Mr Clean.” Because, in a similar position, unlike Smith they would have put politics over professional integrity & respect the law.

The throughline is easier to see when you realize a certain category of leftist views capitalism as a conspiracy versus a flawed system, and western conspiracy theory invariably returns to its urheimat in antisemitism.

Plus you have to square it with the reality that: 1) Biden did threaten to cut off military assistance to Israel, 2) Bibi interpreted it as Biden *actually* cutting off aid AND NOTHING FUCKING CHANGED IN HOW ISRAEL PROSECUTED THE WAR

It is amazing, and sobering, to realize that had Trump not chosen to start this war for no good reason and against the advice of many of his senior ppl, Trump and the GOP would probably be doing... Ok. Not awesome, maybe losing the house, but ok.

i had to cut it for length, but the main argument against "we need wealth taxes to lower wealth inequality" is that there's no historical evidence of wealth taxes lowering wealth inequality to any meaningful degree at any point in time anywhere in the world it's just kind of begging the question

None of these people follow the Israeli press. If they did, they would know that Biden's attempts to restrain Netanyahu were widely reported and deeply resented by a population thirsty for revenge.

You could argue Biden didn't do enough, although I don't think the evidence that Biden cutting off the Israelis would have led to better outcomes for Gaza. The opposite, I think. But at that point you're arguing for your position being validated, not for a better outcome for Gaza.

If you're going to admit that Trump is worse than Biden on Gaza, then you've admitted that Biden was restraining the Israelis. I honestly don't understand what the point of pretending that's not true is at this point, other than to hurt the Dems generally.

This kind of elision is incredibly common in this debate. Any support for Israel is total support, and then Biden's mistakes in not getting Netanyahu to shift course is in itself damning, without articulating how, exactly, the US was supposed to move that needle, while denying any attempt to do so.

In Gaza, the humanitarian access barriers were almost entirely due to the IDF acting with our support, and Biden tried to navigate around this reality with absurd ideas like the floating pier rather than confronting the reality of the harms being caused by our full support of the IDF. 3/4

Of course Trump is worse. That in no way excuses Biden's failures. It's going to be worth reckoning with those failures more as the primary heats up because if the next dem admin brings in Biden's hacks like McGurk, Sullivan and Blinken they will fail again in the same ways.

Evidently IHeart radio offered to have the Lynx playoff games but that would have been in the app and not prioritized on over the air. Imo KFAN was not a good partner for the Lynx or the Wolves. That may not have been intentional but it is my impression.

I like this move for the Wolves radio to go to WCCO. KFAN prioritized the Wild and often the Wolves games were pushed to the Wolves app and iHeart radio. Same thing happened with the Lynx radio calls this season.

There is no tyrant-proof law. We've known this since the Pisistratus and Pericles. Our protection from tyrants comes from people in charge of making, executing, and interpreting the law being against tyranny and that's where we continually fail.
