The border crisis is not Joe Biden's fault end of story

The people @ the border are because of hunger, crime, gangs, climate change, and corruption not
Joe Biden. I had a family that took in 2 refugee children who were “kids in cages” in my neighborhood
and the truth of why and how they had to flee Nicaragua is far from “the Fox News” lies that they
push 24/7 for money and the GOP.

Yes we need to work on the problems but lying about the causes and the refugees is a non starter.

Btw V.P. Harris has been working on real solutions with central and South American governments.

Btw part 2 America will become a brown nation and nothing will stop that.

Hello. This is Botany. I am still alive.

The last few months have been tough but it looks like I’ll be around for a few more trips around the sun.

Hospital food is brutal.

And why is Fox News allowed to spread their lies? They should be outlawed.

Rant warning. I am lying in a hospital room after a wicked

case of covid. I have had all the vaccines except for the last
one and they no doubt saved my life.

THIS SHIT SHOULD HAVE BEEN BEHIND US BY NOW EXCEPT
FOR THE GOP, FOX NEWS, RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION, AND
SOCIAL MEDIA GARBAGE ABOUT THE VACCINES.

FUCK YOU RON DESANTIS, ABBOTT, NOEM, AND SO ON.

MOTHER FUCKERS TOOK WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A
STRAIGHT FORWARD MEDICAL SCIENCE ISSUE AND MADE
IT POLITICAL. THEY MADE PEOPLE GET SICK AND OR DIE
FOR SOME KIND OF POWER PLAY.

VOTE THEM OUT.

FYI Donald Trump's Israel Intel Leak Under Scrutiny After Hamas Attack (newsweek)

Donald Trump's sharing of alleged classified intelligence to Russian officials in the White House has come under scrutiny amid a large-scale attack by the Hamas Islamist military group against Israel.

snip

Thom Hartmann, author and political commentator, posted on X, formerly Twitter, while sharing a 2017 article from The Washington Post: "Hamas apparently knew how to get around Israel's Iron Dome defenses. They probably learned this from Iran. Iran almost certainly got the information from Russia. And who gave it to Russia? Sure looks like it was Donald Trump, at the request of Putin."

(BTW The iron dome is old news but its weakness and ways around might not be.)

snip

Allison Gill, who tweets using the account for the Mueller, She Wrote podcast, added: "Don't forget: Trump gave Israeli intelligence to Russians in the Oval Office 6 years ago. Putin armed Iran in exchange for drones to attack Ukraine."

snip

"This isn't hard to follow," added musician and author Mikel Jollett. "Trump gave military intel to the Russians. The Russians, who are extremely close allies with Iran, gave it to Iran. Iran gave that information to Hamas. Hamas used it to attack Israel. This is why intel security matters. Republicans DO NOT CARE."

Newsweek has contacted Trump's office for comment via email.

Are these the steps that brought us to this shit show?

Trump told Russia about Israel's "iron dome" missile defense system

Russia told Iran about Israel's "iron dome" missile defense system

Iran told Hamas about Israel's "iron dome" missile defense system

Hamas used the information about Israel's "iron dome" missile defense system to launch an attack on Israel

Republicans have now blamed President Biden for Hamas' attack

And Tommy Tuberville along with members of the House Free Dumb Caucus have snarled up Congress
so we don't have the needed military leadership in place and the funding that us now needed is tied up
