The worst part is that Obama's *were* the liberal option in 2009 & the EU's current woes illustrate the alternative. If conservatives had their way, we'd have solved the recession by privatizing Medicare, abolishing food stamps, & deporting half of California
This one seems pretty straightforward: bc it is painful for the Obama team to admit that its policies in 2009-16 were awful & caused a Lost Decade, & the only way to prevent having that long overdue conversation was to denigrate Biden’s vastly superior policies since 2021:

Israel and Hamas will both kill many civilians in the latest conflict--Israel, because it is a well-armed occupying power, will undoubtedly kill more.

Killing civilians is bad whoever does it, and that shouldn't be as controversial as it is.

seems like the guy famous for baselessly accusing someone he didn’t like of being a “pedo guy” just suspended @junlper.bsky.social from Twitter for doing the same to him
