Despite what that Biden's doing exactly? I've heard about Israel weapon sales that are now being forced through by republicans as well. What else?
Why not educate someone who is earnestly asking? There is so much information and misinformation, just typing "Biden Israel" into Google and expecting full context is hopeless.
That's a very true thing. The problem with search engines anymore. There's so much money in propaganda and misinformation. Getting on and finding real information as opposed to false information can be a daunting task.
Guys, I think this guy works in News /s. He's being sensationalist, isn't actually answering any questions anyone is asking, is focusing on the bad, and is seemingly reaaally determined to get a rise out of someone.
You fully misunderstood my stance. The person I responded to said "despite everything Biden is doing" as if he's created other controversy. I was asking what that controversy is.
They don’t misunderstand , they’re deliberately misconstruing your stance
This is a discussion forum, you silly goose.
"What else besides literally funding a genocide."
Listen to yourself.
Proportioned by congress, consistent with 70 years of foreign policy.
Next
Plus Biden attempted to block any more aid for Israel and the Republicans rammed it through anyway.
Shhh no, Biden bad
Not surprised. Republican voters won't care, Centrists will lay the blame on Biden and Democratic voters who don't see the full story get discouraged to vote for him.
Exactly. America funding genocides is inevitable, no matter their elected 'leader'. Money go brrr.
House has power of the purse...not Biden.
Would imply multiple things
But that isn’t the presidents choice.
Quite literally is. Look up the basic process by which US bills are passed, you pretty clearly never have.
The president doesn’t get to unilaterally declare law, he at best has the veto but his job is to forfill the will of the people and by extension Congress.
If congress orders the money and guns to Israel, he cannot stop them.
Literally every president in your lifetime......
