Very reminiscent of the Beirut port explosion of 2020

2 things to note: They want to deport him to Syria or Algeria and not to El Salvador so hopefully he remains free at least.

The judge making this assessment is part of the executive branch and not a federal judge and made it on very literal terms (spineless and ethically bankrupt but not the final decision). Secretary of state said hes is a threat to US foreign policy in writing therefore he can be deported as the law states that he can be deported if the secretary of state says he is a threat to US foreign policy.

The reporting in French I saw said "voile integral" which is niqab/burqa and I checked the bill itself and it just said face covering (excluding medical purposes)

I don't think this law bans all hijab but just the niqab which is the one that also covers the face and is generally seen as fundamentalist in most Muslim countries. The bill itself says face and not head covering. Not to say that this entire bill isn't driven by some level of xenophobia (Christian symbols and holidays are seen as heritage/culture while non-Christian ones are seen purely as religious etc)

18-24 usually gets grouped together for census and survey stuff so you got a good year left in the tank before you're part of the 25-44 crowd

It refers to either a limited time reward structure where you pay for the ability to earn rewards such as cosmetics or other perks in multiplayer games such Fortnite and Valorant (If you don't earn the needed XP within the designated timeframe then you may not even get those rewards you paid for) or access to DLC content in general for both single and multiplayer games where some functionality/maps/modes are gated behind a single or recurring payment.

Biden sent $8 billion in weapons immediately before he left office and Trump reversed the pause on 2,000lb bombs and sent $1 billion immediately after taking office

You clearly don't care about whether or not 2,000lb bombs were available and in use. You just care about whether a performative gesture was made.

And they clearly never ran out of 2,000lb bombs to use. They just happened to need some more now.

Yup, he just sent them at least 14,000 of them before doing that. More than all other bombs combined according to leaks. 2000 pounds bombs were in use in September in Lebanon.

A lot of Dearborn's Arab population is Palestinian and Lebanese and had/have family at risk of being killed. You know when those 2,000 pound bombs get shipped to Israel they actually get dropped on people and kill them, right?

You're a low information voter

Motherfucker, literally 65% voted for women.

You're scapegoating 40,000 people who have lost family members in the genocide for not voting for the killers and using Dearborn as a slur at this point. Less people voted for Trump there than the national average. Keep proving you're a Nazi.

This discussion is specifically about Gaza and the region. Gaza would have still be demolished during a Harris administration and the political goals of the Israeli regime would be unchanged.

Yes, Trump and his ilk are horrible for Americans and world stability. That has been the case for a decade unfortunately the opposition hasn't been able to garner enough votes to beat an incredibly unpopular candidate by forcing even more unpopular candidates on people for 3 consecutive elections. Blame people who voted for Trump for him being in office but don't blame people who did not vote for his opposition for the opposition's failure to provide compelling candidates. It's no different than Trump blaming the EU for not buying more US products.

What do you think was going to happen under the democrats?

Her stated position was identical to that of Biden as he signed off on the mass slaughter: No end to weapon shipments or any tangible support to current admin. Just the meaningless promise of a two state solution for the fiftieth year and reaffirmations of "Israel's right to defend itself". Plain as day to anyone who isn't a party loyalist. Even Trump was somewhat more diplomatic about his position pre-election. If she had taken a different position, she would be in the white house today and we both know it (and that has nothing to do with protest votes and is just how elections work).

Trump is continuing what Biden started and Harris would have continued. The United States' fully bipartisan, murderous foreign policy is a stain on humanity and anyone who supports candidates with murderous policy is culpable.
