The administration claimed that blocking arms transfers would embolden Hamas — ignoring Israel’s genocidal slaughter.

That’s why Biden should be doing positive things, not negative. Forgive all federal student loans, order Medicare to open enrollment and enroll anyone who applies, order the federal government to cover the cost of all abortions, order all government agencies, contractors and subcontractors to pay no less than the state minimum wage where the work is conducted.
None of it will actually go through. A court in Texas will stop it the next day. But force them to be on the wrong side of the issue. Stop letting them lie about what they will do. Show some goddamn spine and just maybe people will stop thinking about Democrats as Republican Lite^tm .
Of course, that’s the problem isn’t it? The Democrats aren’t willing to even try. Which shows us who they are.
Looks like he just vetoed a ceasfire resolution in the UN security council that was unanimously approved by the other 14 members. So that solves the question of what he’s doing with his remaining time in office.
He tried the student loans so that’ll just look bad.
But really how would he order the federal government to pay for things, he doesn’t hold the purse, Congress does. They would just call him off his rocker and not fit for office because he doesn’t remember how government works.
It’d be like me walking into a car dealership and saying give me one of everything! And expecting people to cheer for me when in reality they would just laugh and think I’m an idiot.
Maybe he could do the enrollment, HHS is run by the executive branch I believe
The same way Trump did. By declaring an emergency and grabbing whatever funding source he wanted. Congress appropriates money but the executive still has a lot of power in using that money.
