      Maybe this time at least people will care if/when the president goes around Congress to fund a genocide in violation of the Lehay Act…

      Because I still can’t get over no one caring when Biden did it.

        Comparing the arms sales of the two admins is a completely different scale and magnitude. Apples to Orchards.

        I think people cared that Biden did it, but what are we to do? Pissing and moaning about it just strengthened the anti Biden/Harris crowd and created a strawman for the opposition to use. The criticism was and is warranted, but I think saying no one cared is disingenuous. I think it’s arguably one of the biggest reasons Trump is president today.

      They’ll probably add language that requires the money to be purchased from their corporations of choice and then approve it.

      I’d be willing to bet they’ll reintroduce it in an even worse form. The majority of them don’t give a shit about genocide.

        That is unfair to claim they don’t give a shit about genocide. Most of our representatives care deeply and are doing everything within the powers of the legislative branch…

        …to support genocide. They fucking love it!
