There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?

Also, ceasefires have happened under prior Presidents! The day he gets Palestine their own country he can be told he's the most special boy deserving of a shiny prize.

I love that these people call themselves "feminists" and at the same time loudly support men who abuse women, cultures where fathers kill their daughters for falling in love or showing their hair and demand women have zero rights. But yeah, they believe in freedom.

I loved George Stephanopoulos when he worked for Bill Clinton. I still do. It's a loss for America, really, that he left politics for journalism. We need him back in the saddle.

A cut-off well-deserved and infinitely satisfying. More of this.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

As powerful as this is, what got me most was Biden. What a great man. Shame on all of us for what we did to him. And bless him always for all he did for us.

I'm old enough to remember when people chose their colleges by the quality of the education they would get there, not the ability to brag (idiotically) about the name.

I planned to enroll at New York University, but pivoted at the last second. I'm now enrolled in an interpreter course at a community college for $450.

I was accepted into NYU, but chose a community college certification instead. Being debt-free was more important than prestige.

Once again, hatred will not be tolerated. I work 24/7/365 to share factual information. One ends up disagreeing with something prompting a whole campaign of hatred.

Learn to disagree, learn to be decent and polite. I do not conform to living in such world where rudeness is normalized.

Be well.
