@sickmatter Why wait? Mind you, half our family came from Israel to live in California. I guess now it’s the other half’s turn. The ones in CA used to go back to visit every year, but now they have nowhere to return to cause they came from Nir Oz.

I’d also like to remind everyone that the Trump tax cuts are due to expire in 2025. So when Joe Biden says “Do you really think the wealthy, big corporations need another $2 trillion tax break?” he’s talking about those.

Electing Trump and Republicans will make them happen all over again.

@sickmatter Meanwhile, my 40 year old son announced last night that he’s considering aliya.

Congress needs to pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act!

@sickmatter I figured the meaning was the same. Then again, I also say hashem instead of a name. And I still do that even though I’ve pretty much lost all my faith.

Apparently Rev. Sen. Warnock — who is literally a baptist preacher — also separately told Biden "That was a sermon tonight."

@sickmatter Hell, I picked it up from Christian friends. They don’t really care. All my life, writing g-d so that I wouldn’t blaspheme. Oi.

Speaking with lawmakers immediately after his State of the Union speech, one person (didn't catch who) could just be heard on the live mic telling the president "You were a Baptist preacher tonight!"

Cut the bullshit about #Biden’s cognitive ability.

He’s clearly still more qualified than 99.99999% of people on the planet.

This is a master class. #SOTU

Notice how the republicans react to the idea of not stepping away from the idea and hope of America. Equality, freedom, democracy.

They do not like it. They do not like the United States. They do not like equality. They do not like freedom. They do not like democracy.

They. Do. Not. Like. America.

"I’ve proposed a minimum tax of 25% for billionaires. That would raise $500 Billion over the next 10 years." That's almost enough to end child poverty by giving poor families cash.

Humanitarian care to Gaza with military protection and demand to Israel to allow the humanitarian aid.

Your cries of genocide are the 2024 version of “but her emails” you fucking wastes of oxygen

After noting the massive number of Palestinian deaths in Gaza and the destruction caused by Israel's military, Biden says "tonight, I’m directing the US military to lead an emergency mission to establish a temporary pier in the Mediterranean on the cosast of Gaza that can receive large ships carrying food, water, medicine and temporary shelters. No U.S. boots will be on the ground."

"Here in the chamber tonight are American families whose loved ones are still being held by Hamas. I pledge to all the families that we will not rest until we bring every one of your loved ones home," says Biden in SOTU.
