She and Trump used each other.

Trump can't afford to piss off racists. They're a core Republican demographic in NC.

The sane washing continues. Zero coverage of Trump's comments on NBC, CBS, ABC or CNN.

NPR actually published an article today, in the Opinion section.

Every day he sinks lower and lower.

There's a leopard-ate-my-face quality to this. Acting surprised when crazy conspiracy theorists are invited into the campaign.

It's rich that it's MTG pushing back though, the infamous peddler of Jewish space lasers theories.

This would be chaos, but there's no way it happens. Trump is too beholden to dark money to try it.

Nope.

In Quinnipiac’s latest poll, 48% of Democratic voters say their sympathies are more with Israelis compared to 22% who said Palestinians. That’s a massive change from the 46% for Palestinians and 23% for Israelis in May 2021. Fox’s poll, likewise, has shown support for Israel up by 17 points among Democrats compared to 2021. 

That's from March. Polls now are very different.

Polls show Americans agree with Biden on US foreign policy on Israel

After the severity of Hamas' attack noone should be surprised.

An Israeli family of five whose bodies were discovered in each other’s arms after being killed by Hamas militants were buried side by side in a funeral attended by hundreds of mourners

It's nice throwing around words like Nazi until it loses all meaning, huh?

Of course they'll listen. G7 has the money.

The oppurtunity to pressure Biden and thus pressure Netanyahu into limiting or ending the war.

As it stands now, Biden will talk to the Israelis, then go home.

Don't be surprised if it's back on by the time Biden is done meeting with Netanyahu. Jordan and Egypt are wasting a great opportunity.

To push China towards its annual growth target of 5 per cent — already the lowest in decades — Beijing has in recent months tried to stabilise the property and banking sectors and shore up support for the country’s stock market and renminbi.

Alicia García-Herrero, chief Asia-Pacific economist at Natixis, said the breadth of the stabilisation measures showed Beijing was responding to “cracks” emerging in the financial system.

“Mild growth of 5 per cent for the year won’t be enough, it seems to me, to cover those cracks,” she said, adding: “If the world goes in the wrong direction . . . it is going to be very difficult for China to avoid those cracks getting deeper.”

5% growth is low for China.
