This is the first move of a coordinated effort it seems to me.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

In the same way that Jeffrey Dahmer "lost his way." I mean, in some sense it's true I guess, but...

Wish we could get the young people who actually want to work together, and put them in power. Instead of these rich old men who don't care about their people or what the next generations want
I'll translate for those that don't speak liberal-ese:
"The ritual slaughter of Palestinians by Israel we have supported and enabled for decades is now becoming so intense that, to our complete surprise, it's ended up making us look bad to our voting fodder and now we have to do the bare minimum to not look like the imperialist white supremacist monstrosities we really are and always have been."
sends Israel more bombs
White House is still pussyfooting around, though. From another article (FT):
John Kirby, spokesperson for the US National Security Council, said Schumer had told the White House in advance what he was planning to say. But he sought to distance the White House from the Senate majority leader’s comments, saying that the Biden administration remained “focused on making sure that Israel has what it needs to defend itself, while doing everything that they can to avoid civilian casualties”.
I think someone like Schumer can afford to throw a punch while Biden sees how it lands and waits to throw another. Biden may wait until he’s sure Bibi is finished.
And some people want to put all the GOP craziness on one ex-president.
The Genocide is the reason there aren't new elections. Maybe stop sending them free bombs to commit Genocide with. Then they have to stop Genociding and can hold new elections.
