The name will be changed in a couple of years, and it’ll be embraced by someone from the DNC and liberals will love the entire idea. Like they did NAFTA, the ACA, and several other ideas that originated with the Heritage foundation

They accuse Trump, who famously had Soleimani murdered, of being weak on Iran. From the Official Democratic Party platform

All of this [ed: prior 3 paragraphs all about bs Biden did against Iran] stands in sharp contrast to Trump’s fecklessness and weakness in the face of Iranian aggression during his presidency. In 2018, when Iranian-backed militias repeatedly attacked the U.S. consulate in Basra, Iraq Trump’s only response was to close our diplomatic facility. In June 2019, when Iran shot down a U.S. surveillance aircraft operating in international airspace above the Straits of Hormuz, Trump responded by tweet and then abruptly called off any actual retaliation, causing confusion and concern among his own national security team. In September 2019, when Iranian-backed groups threatened global energy markets by attacking Saudi oil infrastructure, Trump failed to respond against Iran or its proxies. In January 2020, when Iran, for the first and only time in its history, directly launched ballistic missiles against U.S. troops in western Iraq, Trump mocked the resulting Traumatic Brain Injuries suffered by dozens of American servicemembers as mere “headaches” – and again, took no action

Edit: this is from a couple days ago, in case the fact that it was clearly written with a Biden candidacy in mind throws you

lemmy.ml and lemm.ee (your instance) are notoriously similar to hexbear & lemmygrad. It’s always people from those same instances.

I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself. Because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that the terrorist organization Hamas caused on October 7th. (Support Israel and justify the ongoing genocide!)

Fuck off, you’re being intentionally misleading. This was a reassurance prelude to the statement that the Palestinian people have a right to not be genocided. Why are you misrepresenting this?

For anyone who didn’t watch the DNC: don’t trust this bozo, he’s cherry-picking the most bipartisan stances to claim they were acting like republicans.

Fair.

It’s that whole part where after 8 years of more or less constant duress, for one reason or another, there’s a limitation on how much more catecholamine response can be elicited within the human body. People are tapped out.

Probably why this joyful shit is so effective. Context truly is everything.

But yeah, both my uterus and my mental health are shuddering in horror at Project 2025. I can’t read all 996 pages, but I’ve read through some items. Ezra Klein podcast had a nice hour long discussion with both left and right regarding how this is a gender election, at the visceral level. For both men and women. Toxic masculinity does no favors for men, long term.

The 50 year old bipartisan effort led by the Heritage Foundation? Maybe Dems are “underreacting” because they cant seem to get ahead of issues they’ve supported since the beginning

Eh maybe you should look at their comment history. In another thread they’re shilling for Cornel West because he (is pretending that he) thinks that will allow him to absolve himself of the murder of millions of Palestinians, while ignoring the glaring red flags about billionaire Harlan Crowe funding his campaign.

I guess billionaire far-right Republicans actually really care about Palestinians right? That’s why they’re pushing so hard to get a progressive candidate on the ballot in swing states, right? They just believe in having fair elections, right?

Edit - my apologies, this was the other anti-Democratic party shill that was making nonsensical “arguments”. My bad.

The closest thing to bipartisanship that the Heritage foundation has ever done was when one of their janitors used some blue colored soap in the restroom. It was quickly changed out for some RED soap as soon as someone noticed.
