remember last week when biden interupted all public air waves for the purpose of personally letting you know that israel totally did not just blow up a hospital in gaza
I’m sure the Biden family’s history of business interests in Ukraine has nothing to do with anything anywhere ever so shut up shut up shut up
Actually they impeached him for not being an agent for the Ukraine but same difference
i thought they impeached him cuz he was a frikin
Really they impeached him for trying to dig up dirt on Biden. And he was kinda right.
theyre gonna impeach biden for accidentally digging up dirt on the other biden
we can’t have foreign countries interfering with us elections…
and yes, i am referring to that time netanyahu* came to the US to publically shame obama and make a fancy speech to the house about why the US should nuke Iran
it was a perfect phone call!
no, that might as well have been the pleistocene
Is that something that happened over there? He interrupted the airwaves?
yeah the fed has emergency powers to broadcast directly to the public during times of turbo mega crisis, biden decided to use this authority (which he never used during covid obv bc lol) to spread misinformation on behalf of the Israeli state department and cover just another banal war crime and act of terrorism by the IDF
Wait this was actually some federal override broadcast? I thought it was just all the main channels that do both news and regular shows (ABC, NBC, CBS, etc) cutting their programming willingly because a speech by the president is “important”.
Channels that never show news were interrupted? Like was Cartoon Network interrupted?
huh maybe, im trying to find all the places it was broadcast and its pretty hard to track down
ABC called it a “primetime address” or something and that it’s only happened like 7 times in american history, but maybe not a literal federal override thing
ABC called it a “primetime address” or something and that it’s only happened like 7 times in history
That doesn’t sound right, Biden alone has given 30 addresses to the nation like that. Unless they mean very particular circumstances.
Even of the more major addresses I can think of there are more than 7
(in no particular order)
- Bush on 9/11
- Obama on the killing of Osama bin Laden
- Trump on the killing of al-Baghdadi
- Reagan firing all ATC workers
- Bush on invading Afghanistan
- Bush on Hurricane Katrina
- Carter on the hostages in Iran
- Nixon’s resignation
- Ford’s pardoning of Nixon
- LBJ on Kennedy’s assassination
Nah cable channels came after this law so they’re exempt because they were considered a luxury good
hold up, for real? i didn’t even know people still watched network television.
