Axios in the near future...

According to a senior aide - "The president forcefully pushed back and told the Prime Minister Netanyahu the chaos caused by the IDF's incursion into Rafah must end."

---

What happened that morning...

"Mr. Prime Minister - I'm going to draw another red line. I'm warning you. The gloves are off now!"

"I hear you. I see you. I am listening to you."

"I don't understand."

"I know."

Does anyone else also hate reading Axios, not due to political takes but because of their ultra-condensed writing format?

It's so jolting and I always feel like I'm missing two-thirds of an article.

Here's some inside-the-beltway gossip for the lanyards and there will be more sprinkled throughout. Don't you feel part of DC this way?

  • Important. This isn't actually important. It's the spin.

  • Noteworthy. There is some actual context and news in here but again there's a lot of spin.

  • Why this is important. As a reporter I have a certain number of words to put in this section so I gotta do this. Hold on - I need a couple more. Done!

 

Now here's some more inside-the-beltway gossip for the lanyards. If you're reading along - don't you feel clever?

They'll keep rapidly painting new red lines after the old ones are crossed like some sort of classic Warner Bros cartoon.

[-] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 8 months ago

And end up painting a red carpet for him.

President Biden "dangerously close to having it up to here" with Israel's war in Gaza, a source close to the administration said. "A few more years of this and it's gonna be time to start thinking about some real consequences."

[-] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 8 months ago

I am sternly wagging my finger at you, SIR!

[-] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago

Biden taking off his hat, throwing it on the ground, and stomping on it: "BIIIIIIIBIIIII!!!!!"

Weapons shipments

a thin blue line.

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 25 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Infrared line.

Genocide Joe is going to write a note to Zyklon Bibi's parents, telling them he's been a very naughty boy.

Then he's going to send him weapons designed explicitly to kill large amounts of children.

Biden, while authorizing a delivery of thousands of these to Israel: "Look Jack, you gotta stop shooting babies."

Biden will be forced to schedule a parent-teacher conference.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

Except in this scenario the child tells the teacher to fuck off and the parent agrees with them.

[-] edge@hexbear.net 18 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Saw someone basically say this means we can't blame Biden for the genocide any more. Insane take.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 7 points 8 months ago

Like when I tell my SO I told the bartender I was only there for one so really the crashed car in the front yard is his fault.

Except this is a bad example because the bar might actually get in trouble because we hold bartenders more personally responsible for their actions than American presidents.

[-] bestmiaou@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 8 months ago

it takes 7 red lines to make an american flag. he's trying to be patriotic

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago

brandon is red green colorblind actually

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago

If only Biden had ever had a front row seat to what happens if a president makes a big thing of declaring a red line and then doesn't do anything when it's crossed.

[-] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

I don't follow because I feel like there's a lot of Biden lore during his and Obama's presidency. Which incident are you referencing?

[-] GrumpigPoopBalls@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

Obama did a lot of "red line" rhetoric regarding Assad/Syria and then would just make a new "red line" whenever the previous one was ignored.

[-] DinosaurThussy@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

How many WW3 scares was that ago? Like 10?

[-] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Ngo DIem was assassinated in a CIA-backed coup after his repression against Buddhists couldn't be contained and was fucking up the US' war efforts.

What are the chances Bibi here gets a visit from the interior minister in these coming days?

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

Very low. The US has bought it's own propaganda, it's not competent enough to know when to stop anymore

[-] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 8 months ago

Do you think that the Imperial American ruling class wants a regional conflict in the Middle East?

[-] DyingOfDeBordom@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

Some of them definitely do, there's always money to be made

If Biden wants my vote the least he could do is dronestrike Netanyahu

[-] Spongebobsquarejuche@hexbear.net 10 points 8 months ago
[-] Aria@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 8 months ago

According to liberals, Putin's response was completely unexpected, unprecedented and unprovoked.

This just got serious.

Now Biden is going to describe Netanyahu using the F word

Which one? God only knows. God. Only. Knows.

[-] casskaydee@hexbear.net 7 points 8 months ago

Biden's red lines for genocide are worth as much as liberals red lines for the Dem party

[-] FnordPrefect@hexbear.net 7 points 8 months ago

biden-rember "That means it's time to shift to a new gear, so your genocide can go faster but doesn't make so much noise!"

[-] D61@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

"To keep from getting fired by the administration, Mr. Biden (an Elemtary PE/History Teacher at Rochdale Public School) was forced to grade his class on a curve as nobody in the class made higher than a D- for the semester."
