  • That is idiotic. But the idiotic problem the article highlights (AI's enshitification of search results) is more serious.

  • No Democrat would have done better than Biden. And certainly no Republican. You can do better than allying yourself with the Nazis who routinely use the word "terrorist" as a synonym for "Muslim".

  • Biden campaign sends memo to media outlets asserting disparity in polling coverage

    Jump

  • Allying yourself with the Nazis is not going to "help Palestianans". Nazis have already dehumanized Arabs/Muslims to the maximum extent possible. Bush (R) is the president who gave Gaza to Hamas, not Biden. Without Biden there would be no aid trucks going into Gaza. Without Biden there would be no humanitarian pauses. If it is true that "arabs see US as complicit in Israel's Gaza war", then it is up to yourself to help them see the actual truth and not the lies.

  • It's not Biden's fault that you haven't been paying attention to his accomplishments. Biden's accomplishments are greater than that of Obama, Clinton, Carter, and obviously every GOP president and Convicted Rapist Treason Trump

  • This guy is a hard core Nazi traitor who tried to violently overthrow our democratic government. He literally attended the coup kickoff meeting from before the election. He deserves 400 years in jail, not 4 months.

  • House approves GOP’s $14.3 billion Israel aid package

    Jump

  • Complete waste of time. Senate waste pass idiotic bill. Biden wont' sign idiotic bill. The could have played video games and been just as productive. An actual bill must include aid to Ukraine and Gaza as well. And not include an unrelated ploy to make it easy for billionaire elites to cheat on taxes.

  • Granted allowing hamas to run as an armed group was likely a mistake.

    Agreed. Hamas should not have been allowed to run in the election.

    I mean in both cases its really just basically a coup but in the case of palestine it happened realy fast.

    Practically every 3rd world country went thru this in decolonialization. It was called "one man, one vote, one time".

  • It suggests democracy was the issue when hamas murdered Fatah members.

    Hamas would not have been in a position to exert that power if they did not have the majority control they got from winning the election. It's like when the Nazis came to power from elections they started murdering their opponents with nobody to stop them.

  • Texas boy, 13, convicted for killing Sonic worker with AR-style rifle

    Jump

  • A 13-year-old Texas boy has been found “the equivalent of guilty” in the murder of a Sonic restaurant worker with an AR-style rifle after the child’s uncle got into a fight with the employee, according to authorities.

    The boy was arrested on May 13 after police received calls about a shooting at the Sonic Drive-In in Keene, Tex., about 30 miles southwest of Fort Worth, according to the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office. The boy, who was 12 at the time of the shooting, was found “delinquent,” which is the equivalent to guilty in juvenile court, of a murder charge on Oct. 5. The boy, who is from Fort Worth but hasn’t been publicly identified because of his age, was convicted after nearly seven hours of deliberation, the sheriff’s office announced Sunday.

    The boy is scheduled to be sentenced on Thursday, the sheriff’s office said. A juvenile convicted of murder in Texas could face up to 40 years in prison, according to state attorneys.

    Police say the incident unfolded when the boy’s uncle, Angel Gomez, started urinating in the parking lot of the Sonic on the night of May 13. Matthew Davis, a 32-year-old Sonic employee, confronted Gomez, 20, for “being disorderly in the parking lot,” and the argument between them got physical, according to the Keene Police Department.

    Then, Gomez’s nephew, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, retrieved an AR-style .22 rifle and shot Davis at least six times, according to police.

    “A confrontation between two adults became physical at which point the 12-year-old boy got out of the vehicle and fired multiple shots, striking the victim,” the sheriff’s office said on Sunday.

    Davis was airlifted to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

    By the time police arrived at about 9:40 p.m., the boy, Gomez and the boy’s aunt had fled the scene, according to the sheriff’s office. Gomez later returned to the scene of the crime and was arrested, the Keene Police Department said in a news release. Authorities found the boy in Rio Vista, Tex., about 13 miles south of the Sonic in Keene, and took him into custody.

    Gomez is also charged with murder. It’s unclear whether he has an attorney, and court records were not available to determine the status of his case. If he’s convicted, Gomez could face a sentence of five to 99 years in prison.
