President Trump said he pushed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this week on the aid blockage to the Gaza Strip, telling him “We’ve got to be good to Gaza.”

“Those people are suffering,” Trump told reporters Friday on Air Force One as he revealed what he said to Netanyahu during a phone on Tuesday.

Trump, in his first public comments about the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region, said there’s a “very big need” for food and medicine in the region. “We’re going to take care of that,” he added.

Can you send me a source on Trump deporting student protesters first? Since we are asking sources on obvious facts.

Is it possible to send a source without resorting to sarcasm?

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 day ago

Another person did so above and you ignored them so I don't think so.

Those are sources about what you sarcastically asked, not sources on Biden arresting students for protesting against genocide.

That explains a lot, thanks. I compared the six links and it seems under Biden local law enforcement was involved while the federal response was hands-off, meanwhile Trump issued an executive order targeting international students who protested and ICE is handling arrests.

Do you not see the difference between the federal approach? Or is anything happening under Biden his fault, and the same for Trump?

Biden was very much painting students as agressors and there were top down orders for crackdown on protesters.

Trump only took what Biden did further. Similarly ICE was already heavily abusing migrants under Biden.

Democrats just don't care when their guy does it in the same way Republicans don't care when Trump does it.
