    That’s what we have when we have spineless cowards sitting in the White House, imagine thinking they are progressive when they’re to the right of Reagan, Thatcher and George W. Bush.

    And now this shit ‘we’re going to give you 30 days to straighten up your act,’ which happens to coincide after the election.

        When Israel was bombing Lebanon in 1982 Reagan called Menacham Begin and said stop it. What you were doing is committing genocide. If you don’t we’re stopping all the money and all the weapons.in 2002 Bush threatened no money and weapons for killing civilians in Gaza

        Thatcher imposed an arms embargo on Israel for bombing Lebanon.

        Biden is to the right of is Reagan. Bush, and Thatcher on foreign policy, and on many domestic policies.

      Our politicians are “progressive” because they don’t want to kill queer people and round up immigrants. Unfortunately that’s where our Overton window is nowadays :/
