Good job everyone who sat out or voted 3rd party this election. You saved Palestine!
- I dont think those protest voters were significant, people just think "food didnt get cheaper" and didnt felt like voting anymore. Thats your average voter mindset.
  
  The jump in searches for "who is running for president" the day of the election tells you all you need to know about the average American voter.
  
  It's funny how they consider they had massive impact until there are consequences to their actions. Then, it wasn't much.
  
  Apparently, food did get cheaper.
  
  While ignoring that for most people, their purchasing power also went up.
  
  They want to pay pre-pandemic prices for food while making post-pandemic paychecks, and there's no way that's going to happen without guillotines. So instead they voted in the wealthy assholes who directly caused COVID and indirectly caused inflation/greedflation because surely those people won't do that again, right?
- this article is from 2015
  
  Do you really think he changed his stance since then?
  
  He's also the new US ambassador to Israel. That's from 2 hours ago.
  
  I'm sure he's a kinder, gentler Huckabee nowadays.
- Joe Biden is still president and over 200 children were slaughtered since the election. Tomorrow is the deadline he gave Israel for letting aid into the north of Gaza, but he will not enforce it because he also believes that there are no such thing as Palestinians and that they should die so Israel ca annex all territory the Bible grants it.

  Time traveler here, someone wrote a song about you in 1966
  
  I vote for the democtratic party
  
  They want the u.n. to be strong
  
  I go to all the pete seeger concerts
  
  He sure gets me singing those songs
  
  I'll send all the money you ask for
  
  But don't ask me to come on along
  
  So love me, love me, love me, i'm a liberal
  
  Go away. This is so bad.
  
  I'm serious... Save yourself and delete this.
- Because Bidens policies that Kamala guaranteed to continue were going to save them?
  
  Maybe a few more behind the scene tut-tuts and billions of arms to Israel would have helped.
  
  Good job every Dem who supported Israel, good job for taking millions and millions in ~~lobbying~~ bribes. At least your pockets are fat.
- How would kamalacaust have been any different?
  
  kamalacaust
  
  You definitely sound like someone who's willing to have a reasonable conversation.
  
  Watch the efficiency in which they finish the genocide January 21st.
  
  That will demonstrate how much you helped Palestine because you genuinely care. Pfft wow I could barely type that without laughing. You have blood on your hands.
  
  Explain to me how she, or people in her orbit/administration, have said things even remotely similar to what Huckabee just said.
  
  If you're going to name it after someone, maybe try the guy in Israel actually directing the damn thing?
Your new Ambassador to Isreal.
Middle to Low Income Americans: fucked

Palestinians: eradicated

Separation of Church and State: homogenized

1%ers: completely torqued

The NWO is here, the Rubes just forgot to mention it was them and the capitalists enacting it not the illuminati
Based on the need for ancient history to claim a people, there's no Americans either. Does that mean we give everything back to the indigenous people? I hope so. Also even if they're Arabs as you say, that doesn't mean you can just murder them indiscriminately like this.
- Yes, an American politician should be wary of making the argument that non-ancient roots in an area make their claim on their land default.
  
  Honestly, I have trouble dealing with the irony that American politicians are pro-zionism becuase Jews used to hold the land a long time ago until they were outcast from their homelands aand forced to move far away, displacing Palestinian people that live tthere now in the process.... and then think that Native American sovereignty (let alone their claim to their historical lands that were stolen from them) are ridiculous and unfair to contemporary US citizens that live here now.
  
  No it's okay we have nukes.
  
  I'm trying to be satirical but I can't really think of another argument
All the ghouls crawling back out from under rocks
- They weren't hiding, they just stopped screaming long enough to get a good breath of air for the next scream.
- Crawling back out from the February 24, 2015 rock.
  
  2024
Article from 2015

Not that his opinions have likely changed, but please tell people if you're sharing older news articles.
- Not that his opinions have likely changed
  
  Exactly
  
  Misinformation is still not ok.
This is from 2015, just, y'know.
- I'm sure he's changed his mind on the subject since then.
  
  He's seen one too many dead baby pulled from under the rubble
- Oh.
  
  Got any updates from Mike Huckabee for us that show a change in stance?
No such thing as a Huckabee either.
This guy is about to become Ambassador to Israel btw
"And to the left, we have the consequences of our actions."
The vast majority of zionists in USA are christians like this creep.

Oh shit, that’s the first person I ever voted against! As a 17 year old I registered as a republican specifically because I hated him.
There's no such thing as the Palestinians

These jerks have been saying this kind of thing for decades.
