Sometimes I feel like criticizing something Joe Biden has felt he had to do on some issue or something, but then I ask myself who does that benefit?

It's not going to benefit me just by venting and it most certainly is not going to make the POTUS do something that he thinks is the wrong thing to do. He seems set in his ways.

So who benefits? Well, his opponents benefit. Well, do I want his opponents to be stronger because of something I did?

No, I do not want Biden's opponents to be stronger.

Thank you, President Biden @potus

He's negotiating a deal to end the war that includes:
• rebuilding Gaza
• a Palestinian state
•normalization between Israel, Saudi Arabia & Arab states

He successfully negotiated the only ceasefire between Israel & Hamas, which ended because Hamas wouldn't abide by the terms

He's responsible for the only instance of hostages being released by Hamas

He sent billions in foreign aid to Gaza including:
• food
• medical supplies
• clean water

Building pier off the shore of Gaza to get them more aid (which terrorists have already attacked to delay the aid)

He's stated over and over that the war against Hamas should be fought with the intent of minimizing civilian casualties

He helped prevent a single casualty from Iran's attack which included hundreds of drones & missiles

He's encouraged, supported peaceful protests

He's condemned Islamophobia

He's condemned antisemitism

He's condemned his opponent's plan to ban Muslims that includes a ban on any refugees from Gaza.

Don't like this economy? OK, just wait for Trump and the GOP to ruin it: Authoritarians always screw up the economy — come to think of it, GOP presidents have done that for decades

"Is it good for the Jews?" That has been a question long asked by Jewish Americans, especially immigrants and those of the second generation, scarred by memories of the Holocaust, when assessing the policies of the US government and the pledges of political candidates. Here are my thoughts on the subject. https://open.substack.com/pub/newsguy/p/jewish-voters-could-sway-us-presidential?r=1g77q&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

These people don't care about #Palestinians they just want dead Jews.👇

So much for "student" protests on campus. #Protest
