“That son of a bitch, Bibi Netanyahu, he’s a bad guy,” said Biden privately, according to Woodward. “He’s a bad fucking guy!”
Reads like a bloody Onion article.

“But we’ll still give him whatever he wants. That AIPAC there frightens me”
AIPAC and Citizens United are actually frightening.

They are able to change the outcome of races with seemingly unlimited money. A spend of 8.4 million in a Missouri primary is absurd, and likely is a drop in the bucket of what is spent influencing the presidential race.
I don’t think there is a way to fix this either, since the people that should be writing laws to prevent the ones benefiting the most.
I imagine this is also happening in Republican primaries, so one can’t just vote differently to address the root cause. Both republicans and Democrats seem to be tripping over each other to prove what a friend they are to Israel. It’s really weird and stressful to be a US citizen right now.
I hope someday Americans realize that its not scary muslims that are America’s enemy, its the zionists, and it always has been since partition.
I can’t even begin to express how stressed I’ve been over this.
Anyone that has the misfortune of recognizing they’ve been encountering my comments of pure exasperation lately will attest to that…
I’m generally a pessimistic person, but I truly believe Trump is going to win this and the heritage foundation is going to be able to implement their plan to solidify control of the government.
So you’re saying Israel actually controlling the US?
In a roundabout, totally legal way, yes they are. Technically it is a US organization that wants to strengthen US ties with Israel, so it’s totally not foreign influence /s
This is very important info.
I find here on Lemmy folks don’t often consider these types of second order consequences.
It’s very ugly but it has to be considered.
Lemmy? Pick any platform. It’s full of “experts” shouting into the void for years now. It’s sickening how these people have the same rights to vote. (/A obviously)
Your common folk knows Jack shit about their own politics and even less so about global ones. It’s good to hold people accountable but this? This is just madness. There is zero nuance and only goes from one extreme to other. Yes we all want zero civilian deaths, full tolerance, equal rights and for police to be better. But are there any real solutions out here? Ofc not. Just another cave dweller parroting same arguments they read somewhere. Critical thinking is a thing of the past. And it’s sad as I haven’t got an answer either.
Literally…
This comment didn’t happen yesterday, it was months ago. And Biden still hasn’t changed.
And it still hasn’t stopped Bibi from pushing for trump
There is literally no benefit for loyalty to a facist government, the second you’re not 100% with them you’re 100% against them. It’s the same way trump acts
There has been a change in what he says.
But yeah, still nothing on what he does.
Has there?
I’m not talking backroom comments like this, I mean public statements
He’s publicly accusing Israel of supporting Trump. He didn’t publicly accuse them of anything before that.
Do you happen to have a link?
I searched and couldn’t find anything, but searching anything with “Biden, trump, Israel” kind of floods the results
four million in donations (that we know of) buys A LOT of loyalty.
