Yeah but for people to know that would require actually understanding the impeachment proceeding and prior/subsequent investigations.

I think we all know how that went.

Idk AOC is hot and sometimes hot beats racism ...

But seriously, yes they need a progressive middle aged white dude at the top of the ticket. You're right people are too sexist and racist and four years from now that isn't going to change.

Plenty of Trump's former cabinet and generals he worked with spoke out against him.

People are just ignorant and vote against their own self interests.

Didn't say it justified shit. You asked what is Nazi stuff, I answered.

If that isn't some Nazi shit, what is?

What Israel is doing in Gaza.

PDF warning but anyone wanting to peep the law - it's here.

There's actually very explicit language that Congress wrote into the law basically ensuring the president, or the executive at large, has to support Israel militarily.

So there isn't really an easy way for a president to unilaterally untangle us from our military alliance with Israel even if they want to. It will take a literal act of Congress to change the course of the State Dept when it comes to Israel as a lot of what is wrong is prescribed by law as necessary.

Bro, come on. You know which ones, the ones the other poster replied to you with showing Jon Oliver saying the opposite of what you said.

Yes we're watching/reading the same things. Except I don't think you actually are or, like I said, if you are you've been really let down by your teachers.

I really appreciate that outlook and point of view. Of course, eventually you'll run across folks like this guy who even given the door won't walk through it but it's commendable to be open minded and kind.

I try to do the same but sometimes it's an obvious troll and you're writing a comment for whoever is reading the comments vs the person you're replying to.

Keep up that positivity and empathy, we all could use some more of that!

Lol ... okay buddy. Either your reading and viewing comprehension is horrendous, which if that's the case sorry you were failed by whatever education you had OR (much more likely) you're simply advancing this "argument" in bad faith.

It's readily apparent how far off the mark you are.

You are actually way off here and somehow reading something way more out of this in a way I don't understand as an outside observer.

That's because you're arguing from a standpoint of reality and engaging with a person acting in bad faith. They know they're wrong, shit they started off with wholesale lies the opposite of what we can see with our own eyes.
