Abortion was also on the ballot In Virginia, where the entire state legislature was up for grabs today.

@wdlindsy Not all states have a referendum system like Ohio, but it would not surprise me if such referendums would easily pass in, at a minimum 35 states (representing probably 80% of the entire US population). Might even pass in 45 states.

Hamas does not want a ceasefire.

Hamas is a genocidal organization.

@AlliFlowers
The real problem is that there can't be a one-sided pause that results in anything. When Hamas tells you who they are, people should listen:

@killick @AlliFlowers They seem to forget that the 2nd Armored Division was one of the most effective AntiFa organizations of all time.

Not that I suggest using the 2nd's methods in our internal politics. 😉

I will also say that this is yet another instance of the snowflakes on the right using cancel culture.

Democrats don't have a problem with our President.

the media does because he's not Trump.
