Tim Scott just said Biden was complicit in the attack on Israel on CNN

Wolf Blitzer is trying to fact check him or slow him down, but not very effectively in my opinion. This guy is off the rails.

Does he know what complicit means? I had no idea he was that far gone.

Wanna bet they won't mention it might have been Trump who passed the intel to the Hamas?

It wouldn’t surprise me to learn the attack was timed to take *Rump’s legal woes off the front burner, intensify the pressure on Biden, and drain support for Ukraine to benefit Putin.

Hamas can not be excused. It is there because some in power want it there. Maybe people like Scott want Hamas?

complicit bullshit, it's obvious Tim Scott has not read the text from Mitch McConnell instructing him to shut the fuck up..

Need to STFU.

I remember John Mc Cain at his town hall, taking back the microphone from a woman who said Barack was not a citizen and making sure everyone knew that he knew that was a lie.


MSM do your fucking job!

to really blaring untruths, such as that releasing money to Iran financed the attacks. But then he just went on to the next thing. I didn't think he was strong enough at all. If you let someone lie on air, you need to leave no doubt what the truth is.

Just doing his part to bring America together. There is absolutely ZERO reason, even if you squint really hard to see how this could be an argument. But there the far-right is, disseminating absolute bullshit to the masses. So far, it's only the most crazy, but I honestly think this is going to eventually become mainstream (Conservative) talking points. When that happens Dems need to defend aggressively and next time one of our guys calls a Republican a fascist (looking at you Durbin), don't apologize. Dems too often sit back and are called Commies or Marxists, time to start kicking some sand in the sandbox ourselves.

casting doubt on the motives of Republicans, and using it as evidence that they are only interested in making political points no matter the truth and not in responsible governing.

when there is ample proof that trump's loose lips helped ignite the Hamas attack on Israel, Russia's bloody attack on Ukraine & precipitated who knows how many other unprovoked, dangerous military strikes & loss of life around the world?

Isn't what trump has been doing by giving away our military defense secrets to our enemies and would be enemies the very definition of espionage/ treason? Especially now there are actual wars involving our so called allies?

trump's projection and vile pronouncements against Gen Milley spring from his own dark & treacherous actions perfectly.

In my opinion, this fork of the " indicted former president and law-breaker loser trump road," is clearly a hard one. It may or may not shake out. If the fascist maga powers that be are afraid to speak out or 'allow' the arrest of the traitor who tried to destroy our Democracy & who keeps ignoring the Law without consequence.. then who knows?

ABC News and the New York Times are reporting that special counsel Jack Smith has learned in the course of his investigation that Donald Trump blurted details of U.S. nuclear submarine capability to an Australian billionaire who then shared that information with dozens of other people. Barbara McQuade, former U.S. attorney, and Devlin Barrett, justice reporter for The Washington Post, talk with Alex Wagner about Donald Trump's bad habit of playing fast and loose with U.S. national security secrets and what this latest story might mean in the context of Trump's classified documents criminal case.
