  • Biden was going to piss off some group of people due to how polarizing the conflict is. I always thought he was doing pretty well even when it began.

    His only sore spot seems to come from giving a lot of support to Israel, as they ARE one of our allies, and for us to just ignore that would look bad to our other allies. Especially after having a terrorist attack on their country by the Hamas. Geopolitics being complex beast.

    But he has been advocating for civilian safety and making sure the water doesn’t get turned off…

    Can’t say I would’ve done much better or anyone else here.

    I know many are calling for a “permanent” ceasefire…but there was already a ceasefire before this. So, we would just be waiting until it gets “broken” again. Probably by another Hamas attack. Who ARE terrorists and want Israel eliminated altogether.

    Let’s not also forget if Trump was in charge then this situation would’ve been handled a lot less gracefully. Or even spiral out of control.



  • Considering their policy doesn’t allow for other stuff like this, yeah I am not surprised.

    Reminds me of the time when a Spiderman mod removed the VERY few instances of a pride flag in a recreation of NEW YORK CITY and a Skyrim mod that removed any potential gay romances that only occur when wearing a very specific amulet (including a single dead skeleton couple off the beaten path.)

    Those got booted as well cause…come on now. Its blatantly targeting a group of people about their sexuality and gender who have BARELY any presence to begin with in these games.

    Starfield is even more egregious as its LITERALLY just a menu option and the rare use in dialogue…

    Really pathetic and sad people would even feel the need to make them to begin with. Let alone feel the need to upload them to a platform.


  • It is an error on you.

    “I predict there’ll be some convictions,” speculated the lawyer. “I think the strategy is to get bad convictions, but to get them fast,” he continued, saying that Trump would then be able to appeal the decisions, after the election. Dershowitz argued that this is the reason prosecutors are “rushing” to get their cases against Trump to trial.

    He didn’t just say Trump would win on appeal or “He believes there will be convictions but overturned in appeals.” He predicting the approach of the prosecutors and said more than this.

    You are being dishonest.








  • No he didn’t.

    “They’re going to get on the bandwagon,” Dershowitz said of prosecutors. The “approach is to get him before the election, convict him before the election, and he wins on appeal.”

    “They’re all going to raise it,” said Eric Segall, a law professor at Georgia State University. “Trump is going to argue that he and all his merry people were simply ensuring the integrity and fairness of federal elections, something they had an obligation to do, and therefore he has immunity.”

    Segall said the laws protecting federal officials from state prosecution serve an important purpose. Consider, for instance, federal officials working to desegregate the South during the civil rights era being thrown in jail by state officials opposed to those efforts. But Segall stressed that he doesn’t believe the facts of Trump’s intervention will warrant immunity.

    He saying that’s their approach. Ultimately might come down to the Supreme Court which hasn’t favored Trump and similar cases so far.
