The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

    Both sides are hypocrites. Remember Nancy Pelosi getting a haircut during Covid when regular people couldn’t? Or Gavin Newsom attending a birthday party during his own lockdown?

      Let’s not both sides this shit. Yes, there are some corporate Democrats that are indeed hypocrites (I despise both Pelosi and Newsom) but Democrats have a mole hill while Republicans have a Denali sized problem with it.

        The Biden administration has been happy aiding and abetting a genocide which caused hundreds of thousands of casualties, most of them innocent women and kids.

          Not sure how that is an example of hypocrisy. Politician doing shitty thing does not automatically equate to hypocrisy. He also got a good amount of criticism for his actions and it possibly caused Harris to lose. Compare that with the complete lack of criticism with Trump from Republicans.

            Are you suggesting aiding and abetting a genocide is a mole problem? I beg to differ.

            It is an example of hypocrisy when the Biden administration praises themselves as leader of the free world and promotes a rules based order only to be accomplices of genocide.

            Of course, this does not excuse what the Trump administration is doing.
