    Hamas releases video of hostages in Gaza City as Israeli military advances

    You are right that Israel is trying to get the civilians out so they don't get hurt. Unfortunately, HAMAS is directing them to stay :(

    Hamas releases video of hostages in Gaza City as Israeli military advances

    A big part of why HAMAS propaganda is so effective is that western militaries have done an excellent job in making sure that western audiences have no idea what war looks like. I've taken part in a few wars, and a few got fought through cities. 90% of houses destroyed in an area that has...

    Hamas releases video of hostages in Gaza City as Israeli military advances

    Worth noting: HAMAS violently ousted the PA from Gaza after HAMAS won the election there, and HAMAS continues to be more popular than the PA in both Gaza and the West Bank.

    Biden officials raised concerns with how he issued pardons, used autopen

    1. Trump's name is certainly in the Epstein files, which is not the same as he is confirmed as having raped any underage girls (though it's not exactly contrary to his character) 2. Biden being so out of it that he didn't know what was being signed in his name by members of his staff is still a...

    Hamas releases video of hostages in Gaza City as Israeli military advances

    :p Tell us you don't know what you ate talking about without telling us you don't know that you are talking about. This is incorrect. As far as I am aware, no Treaty has ever been discussed. Yeah that is what fighting a war against an enemy that uses perfidy looks like.

    Because they get rewarded for taking hostages, which is why they have continued to pursue this tactic.

    Is the President allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice during an election year?

    As will all our systems. Not a government yet has proven immortal, and most Democracies commit suicide.

    Is the President allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice during an election year?

    I think several of the right wingers would switch sides, as partisans of all stripes do on this issue and others having to do with constraints on Presidential power based on whether or not "their guy" currently sits in the White House. Remember back when it was the Left urging Biden to ignore...

    Trump Literally Just Murdered 11 People In A Small Boat Off The Coast Of Venezuela....Completely Insane

    He has a real animal cunning. I think it entirely credible that he is completely a creature of unrestrained impulsive instinct, and entirely credible he realizes that by taking one side of an 80/20 issue, he can push Democrats into taking the other.

    Trump Literally Just Murdered 11 People In A Small Boat Off The Coast Of Venezuela....Completely Insane

    Articles I and II of the US Constitution. Well, if you have truly missed the last 24 years, I agree, that is really something. There's a lot to catch you up on. One of those things is that under a CT Authorization for the Use of Military Force, Congress gave the President authority to...

    Is the President allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice during an election year?

    yeah, but they are currently arresting people for tweeting that they don't like illegal immigration, or don't believe that boys can become girls, so.... Our Surpreme Court is not dysfunctional. If anything, it is probably the best SCOTUS we have had in.... maybe 90 years.

    Okay, I get that they don't want to be publicly embarrassed, but, yeah, that's funny.

    Trump Literally Just Murdered 11 People In A Small Boat Off The Coast Of Venezuela....Completely Insane

    We did not. We did a couple months of airstrikes, as did Obama. Had we actually chosen to "go all in" on the Houthis, the Israelis would not have had to do what they did this past week, because all that and more would already have been done. Trump, like Biden, wanted to fight on the cheap and...

    Is the President allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice during an election year?

    Yup. We can thank Ted Kennedy for kickstarting us all down that particular road.

    Is the President allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice during an election year?

    It reminds me of Churchill's famous comment about Democracy - it is the very worst system.... except for all the others. I'm not against that, nor am I against setting long terms of service for them that would allow each President to nominate a predictable number. But in our country that would...
