The decision they made wasn’t a precedent, they allowed it as a case-by-case basis. So Biden wouldn’t be able to point to Trump and say “he did it! So it’s legal!”.

Appreciate it. My coworkers are incredible people, you could write a movie about the shit they’ve done. I know that in their place, I most likely wouldn’t be able to give as much as they have to the people around them. They inspire me every day to continue doing what I’m doing, even when it’s hard and often thankless.

When did Harris tell people “to stop”? She said “Israels defense, end the war” two days before the election. Nothing more. And she only did that because the polling had it as a more important issue than the democrats previously thought.

You don’t look at what politicians say, you look at what they do. And what they did was send more weapons to Israel. What they did is publicity stunts. What they did is shun people who talked about Gaza. Going as far as to shut them up with her idiotic “I’m speaking”. The genocide continued.

But I don’t blame people like you. To you Gaza is some far away country that you don’t care about. To other voters though, it is an important thing and they have shown that. Call them names all you want - the reality is democrats fucked up. They fucked up on Gaza, they fucked up on moving to the right to try to “steal” votes from the republicans.

It didn’t give a vote to a candidate that supports a genocide.

I work with people in need and I send humanitarian aid. I’m doing what I am able to do, exhausting my savings and putting my future on the line for them. What did you actually do?

You are saying that as if I didn’t have to sit in stunned silence for an entire day already, when one of them lost an entire extended family (uncles and their family) who literally lived nextdoor to them. The bombing took out the wall in their bedroom and hurt their 3 months old child.

If you ever think “I’m an empathetic person”, think about this post, how you used tribal politics to basically say “that thing that happened earlier to them already? It will happen to them again, and it would still happen if ‘my candidate’ won the election”.

An assassination isn’t “an official act”, plain and simple. The Supreme Court ruled on one specific case. They allowed it then. A different case could be ruled illegal. Which it would 100% be done, be it a republican court, a democratic court, or some magical unbiased one from fairy land.

The Supreme Court does, they just said that

Not true, the Supreme Court decides it on a case by case basis. And murder of a political opponent would land Biden in jail faster than you can say “one Missisipi”. And rightfully so. That’s why he didn’t do anything of the sort - because he is not a criminal.
