“The FCC chair is clearly undertaking an effort to bully and intimidate independent journalism, which is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes where democracy is under siege,” said one critic.

    In regards to the Israeli genocide. Reading comprehension helps, so I’d use that if I were you. And what exactly did Biden do to stop Trump from doing literally any of this? He could have had Trump arrested and that would have been that since he’s a president and it’s an official act.

    Then, when he was polling terribly after his first debate, he forced Kamala to be the only option for the Dems. The Democratic party didn’t even have a democratic primary. And somehow this is voters fault?

    And what safeguards did Biden/Dems put into place to protect immigrants or trans people huh? Oh that’s right, absolutely fucking nothing. Because they don’t care about trans people or immigrants, they’re just talking points for Dems.

    You can blame people with principles all you want. But Biden did nothing about Trump for 4 years. Everything that’s about to happen is on him. And in the future his name will be spoken in the same way that James Buchanan is.

        You’re turning this whole conversation into this weird fucking purity test. Meanwhile you’re either too blind or stupid to see that fascism has been here in the US. I’ve done protests, I’ve done voting, I’ve donated to causes that are anti-thetical to Trump and his laws. And guess what? Fascism is still here. Want to know why? Because none of that fucking does anything under a fascist government.

        Because guess what? Fascism isn’t something you can vote out. Anyone that knows about the history of fascism knows that.

        Why aren’t you asking this of your elected officials with all the power to do this instead of some random person online? How ridiculous.

        Harris and Biden chose to protect Israel over protecting the US and now we’re all paying for it.

          We know what they did, the answer is not enough. Anyone with half a brain knows that answer.

          Now answer the question, what did you do?
