Well that's a start, but not enough in itself to fix the problem. He could have done more, and we wouldn't be looking at a Supreme Court eager to support Trump's re-election.

“As charged, Skyler Philippi believed he was moments away from launching an attack on a Nashville energy facility to further his violent white supremacist ideology, but the FBI had already compromised his plot,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland.

More MAGA terrorism.

Why did Joe Biden do nothing to rebalance the Supreme Court in all his 4 years of being President?

It's going to drag on longer than that, if it's not a clear Republican victory from the outset.

Netanyahu has done a lot to help the world see this propaganda game for what it is. Not worth genocide, but it's a slight silver lining. The "criticism is antisemitism" strategy won't work forever for Israel.

Also, I bet you're a programmer.

Honestly I can't remember the details. It was a few months ago and it may have been just a temporary thing or a quirk of my installation. I think it had to do with some component relating to DBus not being present that I couldn't figure out how to fix.

That's the kind of responsible and sensible advice the Republicans would never give. It requires too much nuance.

They have been doing this since 2015. Why is anyone still doing business with them?

You don't get to where he is by caring about other people.

They're proposing to ban vaccines too, and they're not mentioning particular vaccines, just "vaccines". So no healthcare for trans people or pregnant women, and no vaccines. It's only a matter of time before someone convinces them antibiotics are the devil's work.

And it goes along with two political positions: conservative (normal) and political.

Analysis from the BBC (who are usually quite motivated and effective at justifying Israel actions).

The sheer devastation is incredible. 66% of buildings damaged. 90% of the population displaced. Water and sanitation systems non-functional. 53/500 needed lorries entering the territory per day (down from 142). They're not even trying to look they're helping now. The population have been squeezed into over-populated tent cities.

It feels like they think if they create the conditions for disease and it kills people, they don't get blamed.

To me, it's hard to think of a way this could get closer to genocide. Absolutely sick.

Israel seem to be galvanised by inaction of the world and probably looking to do the same in Lebanon. Is Yemen after? Where does this stop?
