Their predecessor, the American Zionist Council, was forced to register as a foreign agent after their obfuscated ties to the Israeli government were discovered, and they had to dissolve the organization as a result.
It is almost a certainty that AIPAC is an arm of Israeli intelligence just the same. I’m sure they got better with hiding it, and/or they don’t need to hide it with our festering corruption.
If I were them, I’d be worried about targeted violence against me and my party more than random spree killings.
I am not worried about dying in a random shooting, generally.
You’re right, I don’t care about the plight of veterans any more than the plight of anyone else. If anything, I care slightly less because of their culpability in our military misadventures and the trail of death and destruction we’ve left in our wake.
That said, they should be taken care of. Like anyone else should be taken care of.
Pushing to make trained killers homeless and desperate is definitely a move.
I seem to recall one of their butthurt targets back in 2024 basically saying “just wait until we have control of the FBI, we’re gonna cook your ass.”
Man, I thought that was hubris, counting their chickens before they hatched.
In his first term he wanted to restore our nuclear stockpile to peak Cold War levels.
I can imagine two reasons why he might have changed his mind beyond being a feeble old man:
I think you might be a bit confused with how federation works. Just because you made an account on Lemmy.ca doesn’t mean everything you see is Canada-centric.
There’s a decade or five in between “barely postgraduate” and “belongs in an assisted living facility.”
I want people in charge of significant government functions to have significant lived knowledge and experience in the field.
I have a feeling Americans fleeing the consequences of their disaster politics may not receive the warmest welcome in Canada. There’s a lot of animosity and a lot of it is warranted.
The leadership of blue states is going to follow the path of civility and norms all the way to hell from what I’m seeing out of them. Who’s gonna pick up the phone and rally their National Guard in open rebellion? Gavin Newsom? Phil Murphy?
Most supporters of the Nazis went to the grave believing their cause was just. Whether it was on the battlefield, at the end of a firing squad, or decades later of old age.
They let go of their aspirations and public support because they were forced to, at the end of a gun.
Why is he being “sued” and not “arrested and held without bail”? Is election tampering not a felony?
If he doesn’t have the backing of the NYPD by going along with everything they want, he’s toast. That’s kind of the long and short of it.
I thought they already offered an explanation. That she is a terrorist sympathizer, therefore a terrorist herself, therefore she does not have rights under the color of the law. That’s where we are.
They don’t fuck with armed conservatives. Armed leftists get bombed from helicopters and cut down with belt-fed machine guns.
Every despotic regime has a program to inform on your neighbors. Even in our tech-laden world, it’s probably one of the most effective means of identifying dissidents.
Some kaiju-sized demon could cleave Tampa, Florida in half with a flaming sword of the damned and all twitter would have to say about it is “would.”
A lot of armored vehicles are straight up deathtraps if they sink underwater. Very tight quarters, very limited ways out that are often locked down. It’s hardly impossible for this to be an accident.
Trump literally said Reagan was “terrible on trade.”
There is no person so sacred, living or dead, that they won’t throw them under the bus in their quest to consolidate power and avoid responsibility for their actions.
They’re saying to not expect a smooth return if you are a green card holder and you wanted to, say, fly out to visit family in South America for a couple weeks.
I’ve heard that this mess started because Ivermectin was tested in the developing world as a treatment for Covid, and that some of those who took it reported “feeling better.”
Except in those parts of the world, many many people have untreated, festering parasite infestations like hookworm and many others. So yeah, when they take an antiparasitic compound, they start “feeling better,” whether they have Covid or not.
