The progressive epithet version of this is "pick me" which was always absolutely loathsome. The users of that phrase think "no marginalized person could ever possibly disagree with me on their own accord. No, they only are doing this for head-pats from oppressors".
Take the environmental assessment. Those are EXQUISITE ways to stop things. I know, from my housing activism, but they can kill almost anything. (the ICE everglades facility is a good recent example). This one proceeded apace for a full 1.5 years under Biden. If this is bad, they're both to blame.
I stand corrected about the timeline. But if this is so corrupt, why didn't the Biden Administration try to do something about it? Why didn't he or the congressional Democrats make a stink about it? There are lots of ways to administrations to change things that have long processes.
I should also mention that Biden sent a ton of weapons to Saudi Arabia. The issue is that our close ties with the Gulf are extremely useful for our fanatical support of Israel. It goes hand in hand.
I mean, I’m not exactly a big fan of the US’s cooperation with the Gulf, but that is an _incredibly_ bipartisan tradition. Biden’s the one who started the plans for this particular facility. www.cnn.com/2025/10/10/p...
It’s not unprecedented. The very CNN article you mentioned shows that this was being planned by Biden. This happens plenty of times. I hate Trump, but this is normal military/training cooperation. m.economictimes.com/news/interna...
No. It’s not an airbase. It’s a facility at a US airbase. Trump is evil but this is normal training cooperation.This particular facility was planned under Biden m.economictimes.com/news/interna...
Guys, there’s so much to freak out about but this isn’t one of them. It’s perfectly normal and also plans for this facility started under Biden m.economictimes.com/news/interna...
I personally think she would be substantially better than Maduro. But she shouldn't have gotten the prize (her defending the boat bombings is a categorical disqualifier), and anti-Trump progressives should know who she truly is before gushing that "Trump got spanked" or w/e.
I feel SO vindicated. I love it so much. I hated her before it was cool. Yet another reminder that someone being crushingly unpleasant is never ever ever ever praiseworthy no matter identity or politics. Such a person WILL do evil at some point.
