In a rare Oval Office speech, the president said, “We reject all forms of hate,” against Muslims, Jews and everyone, as he set the stage for a planned request to Congress for $14 billion in emergency assistance for Israel

Is funding genocide with billions not a form of hate?

Americans will dismiss Russia as being irrelevant with a small economy while obsessing over it being the source of all evil.

THE ENEMY IS TOO STRONG AND TOO WEAK scared-fash

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

The emeny is weak and strong, shifting rhetorical framework, yadda yadda. The first twenty minutes after someone explains it, it feels like you're seeing the political world for the first time. For the next twenty years it's just unspeakably, depressingly banal.

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Putin can control all elections, influence all world events, and kill anyone on a whim with the help of his shinigami eyes. But he’s also short and gay and has no money for a military and he’s also bald and loves trump (gay)

Not powerful enough to interrupt the MLB playoffs though. All the grillman out there balled straight through it

Nobody can contain the power of a baseball fan, or any sports fan really. If sports were played during work hours the economy will collapse in weeks.

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (2 children)

A fight between baseball fans and football ultras would be the most one-sided battle in history even if the baseball fans were allowed to bring bats.

I literally had no idea this happened

[–] mkultrawide@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I have Direct TV Stream but I watch basically nothing live except sometimes football. Usually I will tune in late so I can skip commercials and end the game in real time.

Has this ever happened before? This is insane lmao.

When I was like in 5th grade, I was watching the nightly back to back episodes of the Simpsons. But then suddenly it just cuts to Obama walking down the aisle in his house and announcing the assassination of Osama bin Laden. I know what 9/11 was and who he was, but I literally did not give a fuck. This asshole ruined my episode. And by the time it went back to the show, it was over and the credits were rolling and the night time adult shows were airing.

[–] ChapoKrautHaus@hexbear.net 40 points 2 years ago

This asshole ruined my episode

Yet another Obama crime libs will always deny

In ebil 1984 North Korea, the Great Leader's speech supercedes all other TV programming.

Biden's whole attempt to present himself as the modern reincarnation of FDR, with building up an "arsenal of democracy" for fucking Ukraine and the zionist entity, is laughable.

Also it's been a minute since i listened to him speak for more than ten seconds, has he gotten worse?

"I was in a train and then I wentensaw mhsow zele- presind zelinskee...and I knew America wassa beacon ofope for the worl..."

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago (4 children)

He's clearly gotten worse, just imagine him in a debate with trump-moist next year.

[–] GreatWhiteNope@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (3 children)

As if either of them would agree to a debate

His team went for the FDR comparisons, Biden kept fucking it up by mentioning how much he was trying to be Reagan

Didn't every cellphone in America receive a "test-alert" the other week? Probably routine. fedposting

[–] Venus@hexbear.net 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Motherfuckers woke me up with that shit. I have to work at night assholes

[–] sloth@hexbear.net 29 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

because the alert was able to override volume/mute settings it screwed over many people in Amish Communities, and other people with secret phones

not to minimize your circumstance, I also worked nightshifts and the struggle is real

[–] Venus@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hadn't even thought about that, that's so fucked up

[–] RedDawn@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

Many people in jails and prisons got caught having phones due to it also.

Hamas haven't even been launching subsequent attacks in the past week, have they? It was just a one-and-done few-day thing with a couple follow-up rockets.

you don't understand, they literally did 9/11^911^
