You know Biden is not part of the House and the House is run by Republicans, right?

Way to completely miss the point. He's obviously there cuz he's the current US president.

If they wanted to dunk on biden specifically of course, they could've just pointed out how he's has been bypassing congress to send weapons to israel faster, or how he walked back the few sanctions on israeli settlers that were only for optics anyway since it was to pretend as if the state itself wasn't behind it, but this is just the most recent shit the US is doing.

Edit: Looks like Biden does agree with the move against the ICC too, so there's no need to bring up all the other shit he's done specifically.

Under the caption about something the House did...

If you're gonna be such a pedantic shitlib, should I edit the caption to be something from this article Linkerbaan mentioned? Since it's about this incident specifically.

Biden denounces ICC for ‘outrageous’ implication of equivalence between Israel and Hamas

The Biden administration on Monday forcefully denounced efforts by the International Criminal Court to seek arrest warrants for top Israeli officials and Hamas leaders, saying the court’s efforts put the terrorist organization and a top US ally on equivalent footing.

Why go out of your way so much to try defending a fascist? Why do you have an image saved on your device to defend this piece of shit online?

I'd be Ok with changing that caption, don't blame Biden for the stupid shit the House is doing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Linkerbaan's article isn't on this bill. Articles on this bill say he doesn't support it https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm5512l7yero

Again denouncing and sanctioning have differences. He wags his finger, but he is against punching them down.
