The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would ban TikTok unless its Chinese owner, ByteDance, divests its interest in the app.

I’m not kidding. This will make Gen-Zers vote for Trump. All he has to say is he’ll reverse the ban. He’s already announced that he opposes this bill and that this only supports Facebook.

Biden and the Democrats are so fucking insane. I do not understand it. They want to lose all support with every fucking base they have.

I’ll never stop being on TikTok.

      Eh, that’s one of those things that’s going to happen regardless of which candidate wins. Israel is basically our only consistent ally in the Middle East, so we’re going to play nice with them regardless of who wins.

        There’s a difference between continuing the status quo, and what Biden is currently doing, even fucking Reagan once told Israel to back down. Pretty ambivalent response about your guy subverting congress to help in an ethnic cleansing.

        Joe Biden is literally to the right of most everyone in the US vis a vis Israel, so there’s a non zero chance he is genuinely worse than Trump.

        The senator – Biden – said he would go even further than Israel, adding that he’d forcefully fend off anyone who sought to invade his country, even if that meant killing women or children.

        Also, he doesn’t HAVE to be doing this. You get that, right? Many voters are telling him to stop, some of the legislators in his own party are telling him to stop. He could end this with a phone call tonight. That he does not, and that his opponent would likely continue this, is not ‘a wash’, it is damning.
