15. Maybe we should reflect on what others have suffered because of our policies and not just what this asshole has

unleashed upon citizens of the US and immigrate families. That leads us nowhere IMHO.

This might not be popular but it is not all about "us" it also relates to our status in the world and we are failing, one could look at the debt to GDP ratio, how much money is being funneled to both parties etc. ...but I digress.

Yes the Dems are better but I'm not going to shy away from criticism where it is due, we are supplying weapons.

I put the Gaza Strip weather on my iPhone months ago, they had rains and the current the temp is low 50's and most living in tents, flooding, and still watching for bombs. J

Just think about this, aside from food insecurity, kids not attending school, lack of access to medical care, kids without a limb, people with cancer, people needing dialysis etc etc.

Some people/voters care about what we do to others with our tax dollars that support the lives of others.

A bit tired of the "Genocide Joe" and "Killer Kamala" being used as an excuse for our policies overseas that harm others.
