Didn’t aides say the same about Arab American voters? They got to be running out groups of likely Dem voters to alienate and demobilize.

“Several aides told Reuters they are advising #Biden to remain above the fray, rather than directly engage with the relatively small groups of protesters on college campuses, arguing their numbers are too insignificant to harm the president's reelection campaign.” #GenocideJoe #bidenharris2024 #politics

Short, and to the point.

“Only years later did I realize that I was mistaken, and we missed an opportunity to have a president who might actually have made America great by championing racial justice, labor rights, and the war against poverty.

I hope that today’s campus #protesters don’t repeat our mistakes by abandoning #Biden, who already has a proven record of accomplishments in his first term”

@GottaLaff @Eetschrijver @rameshgupta @SteveThompson
Very good cartoon. Idealism versus pragmatic reality. This 👇= best brief essay/OpEd I've seen stating the same thing, perhaps with a bit more substance to back up the message:

"Abandoning Biden could repeat the 1968 mistakes that helped elect Nixon" (me: only this would be much worse*) https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/5/12/2239229/-Abandoning-Biden-could-repeat-the-1968-mistakes-that-helped-elect-Nixon
* Plus, Biden's done a lot of good!

#Biden can use this just as Trump says he would, but will he?

#KnowNothing #CardiB is too stupid to realize that NOT voting for #Biden is a vote FOR #Trump, and that her boycott of #Election2024 could be her last — She might not get another opportunity to vote EVER.

If #JoeBiden desires to be @potus again, he needs to double down on the African American vote.

It’s anecdotal, but I already have relatives who told me they will not vote for #Biden in November, with a few saying they will vote for #DonaldTrump 😱 (#NewYorkCity is buckling from taking in many undocumented migrants which is angering some people).

White House releases #Biden statement on International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. "Like all human beings, LGBTQI+ people deserve equality – equal rights, equal citizenship, equal dignity. It is our shared moral responsibility to fight back against homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia, just as we must fight back against all hate-fueled violence, at home and abroad." I'm not seeing much action against hate in the US https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/05/17/statement-from-president-joe-biden-marking-international-day-against-homophobia-transphobia-and-biphobia/

Folks, there is a full blown, certified by experts (including previously reluctant ones) fascist party in the United States, the #GOP

It's part of a larger neofascist movement that crosses national boundaries.

Until the #fascist run party is no longer run by fascists I am a #SingleIssueVoter : I'm voting against #fascism.

And no. #Biden isn't a fascist. You can level many complaints against him and the Dems but being fascist isn't one of them.

The #Biden administration issued new minimum #EnergyStandards for homes built with federal dollars.

A bundle of #BuildingCodes that set efficiency targets for insulation,windows, HVAC and other systems, the updated energy standards apply only to new #AffordableHousing construction built with federal financing or funding.

All told, the average annual savings work out to $963 per household."

What we know, and don’t know, about the presidential debates

President Joe Biden and Donald Trump agree to participate in two debates: one in June and one in September.

Here’s what we know so far ...

Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people uses genuine Made In The USA® Child Killer™ bombs. Accept no substitutes.

USA®: Profiting from genocide because who the fuck is going to stop us?™

This message approved by President Joe “I am a Zionist” Biden.

Before entering the courtroom, #Trump potentially violated the #GagOrder forbidding him from talking about prosecutors in the case, other than Bragg. He made what sounded like a reference to Matthew #Colangelo, one of the prosecutors, saying, "a lead person from the #DOJ is running the trial," & baselessly adding, "So #Biden's office is running this trial." Colangelo USED TO work at the Dept of #Justice, & Trump has used similar language to describe him in the past.

#criminal #law #TrumpTrial

The more I speak about #Biden's complicity in #genocide, the more desperate people are to tell me I must vote for him in *six months*.

This is what they focus on. Not the genocide happening *right now* but a vote that will happen in *six fucking months*.

They say the only way to stop the genocide is to make sure he stays in office. Again, they say the only way to stop genocide is by keeping the same person committing it in power.

Mind you, I haven't *once* indicated who I'm voting for, because it isn't the point. But also, I have ranked choice voting, so it's *really* not relevant. I don't have to vote *for* Biden to still vote *against* #Trump. I just have to rank the damned candidates, with Trump last. But again, this isn't even the point.

The point is that so many people who claim to care about genocide don't, and would rather focus on fighting me on my individual #vote 6 months away than a genocide happening right now.

Usually when a whole slew of people resign from your administration, your administration is toast

Wow. Good for you @atrupar, who tweeted:

Nate, #Trump almost murdered #Biden during a #debate last cycle by rolling up on the stage as a biological weapon. Norms and traditions went out the window long ago.

Nate Silver:

You're supposed to be the candidate who stands up for norms and traditions and now you're ducking this tradition?

"The President will not be participating in the Commission of Presidential Debates' announced debates."

Dont worry, dead Palestinian kids, this is the good guy.

@palestine @israel

Congress was ready to overrule #JoeBiden if he did not agree to promptly supply weapons to Israel 🇮🇱.

👉🏾 #Biden advances $1 billion in arms for #Israel 🇮🇱 amid #Rafah tensions https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/05/14/biden-israel-weapons-gaza-rafah/

Supporting Israel 🇮🇱 is one of the few things #Democrats & #Republicans in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸 agree upon (albeit for different reasons).

Biden relented due to his poll numbers dropping as he is now behind #DonaldTrump in most battleground states (I still think Biden will defeat #Trump in November).

Jay Kuo's assessment of New York Times' latest poll:

"Let me say this plainly: The Times poll is intentionally Trump- and conservative-leaning, both in how it was structured and how it was promoted. There may be fine reasons for this, but they are not discussed anywhere. And its data contains some eyebrow raising anomalies that it either glosses over or ignores completely."

Trump is back in court after lunch, carrying a stack of papers. His entourage of elected ofcls appears to have mostly left, though #VivekRamaswamy, remains.

#Trump is seated at the defense table reading through his stack of papers, which are usually positive news articles about him or negative ones about President #Biden. [pacifiers]

#MichaelCohen has been called back to the stand.
