Oddly well done. If they want to take this to the next level they need to get Hunter Biden into a position of power.

This is a fantasy. Clinton was the most frequent flyer on the jet. The DNC had that ghoul out campaigning for Biden in 2024 telling Palestinians to "get over it." Biden could've easily released all the info Trump is being pushed for now. Both parties are complicit.

This argument works on people who don't have money that have decided they will only do bad things to get money because they don't have any. Unfortunately, this logic is quite pervasive in certain parts of the US, as a form of cope.

Sort of for Trump, he's very against all of the civil liberties attacks, especially on speech, and especially censorship regarding Israel. He hasn't changed any his pro-Putin perspective.

I've seen relentless shaming of Palestinians since the election. Literally have their homes and family blown up and then get blamed for the election on top of it. Absolutely zero compassion or strategic thinking from the finger pointers. Perfect time to give them a hug but being smug is easier.

Right, that's his networth which is mostly based on the value of his Tesla shares. Whenever the value of the company goes down, so does his networth. Your number is now out of date because the value of Tesla has decreased about 20% since then.

That's the thing. Tiktok out competed them with a superior product. They copied it but made it worse. Google search is getting worse because of their ads first focus. All meta properties are terrible for the user and put advertising first. The US tech model makes bad consumer products.
