Thanks for the clarification.
NSA warned of vulnerabilities in Signal app a month before Houthi strike chathttps://www.cnn.com/2025/03/24/politics/yemen-strikes-journalist-cabinet-signal-chat/index.html
Only the best. How do you fuck up that bad and send missle strike stuff OVER TEXT IN THE FIRST PLACE and then to a freaking journalist. Just wow.
We gotta change our system. Gotta get money out.
AIPAC has given Chuck over $1.5 million. It's given Trump something like 5-10 times as much in the last 5-ish years.
Elon has given Trump like $350 million.
Bezos gave a reporter $100 million...
The problem is that anybody with the means can control our system.Those guys aren't getting people deported for not liking them.
Israel is.

Focusing on anything else is counterproductive for us.
And yes, at least one of them is almost certainly getting people deported because he doesn't like them.
I disagree. Focusing on these specific things rather than overall agenda that would solve these things leads to fracture on the left.Except every war we've started in the past 25 years has been exclusively for Israel.
Focusing on this is not counterproductive but you do you.
Musk has given $350 million to Trump...Do you have evidence of this?

This empowers Republicans, and is why a piece of shit like Trump can win.

Trump winning allowed the deportation *attempt* you posted above. Made possible by funding provided by Musk.Who did he get deported?

That's an indirect result. Not the same as Israel funding the politicians and then doing away with the first amendment by deporting people.
That sounds pretty indirect too.

Sounds like you have a different definition of the word "indirect."
It would be direct if Israel itself deported people from the US.
What you describe is at least 3 steps:
1) Israel funds politicians
2) politicians look the other way
3) ICE deports people
That seems at least as indirect as:
1) Musk buys election for Trump
2) Trump signs executive orders about immigration
3) ICE deports people

What does counting steps have anything to do with it? Look at intent and result.
We don't even know if it is Americans abducting Americans or if they are Israeli. Or someone else.
Elon does not fund the president to exile Americans from the country.
Israel does. Israel is dictating this policy and if you don't think so, you're quite naive.
I think they both fund the president for their own selfish reasons.
We should be strictly ensuring none of our elected leaders are tempted to engage in such exchanges.
That should be the focus because far more people agree to the overall goal than about Israel or Musk.
We can definitely use these as examples, however, the focus should be on systemic changes. Anything less will doom us to more crazy Republican leadership.
We need to identify that our foreign policy is being run by Israel, regardless of the president in power. It would be absolute negligence if we didn't.
Our foreign policy is being run *in coordination with* Israel. They are a very close ally. At least historically. You may be right that they are running it now. But if they are it's because they are taking advantage of our corrupt system.
We need to eliminate the ability for capital to personally influence our elected leaders and then we'll be more able to elect leaders we can trust to manage that relationship better.
Just hating on people or countries for taking advantage of our broken system without actually fixing the broken parts is just insane.
We had a good run, y'all...
Wait a minute......we just spent the last four years hearing the Republicans whine incessantly about Biden's full out assault on the First Amendment and now they try to foist this latest indignation (and illegal act) on us???? Nothing like an oligarchy masquerading as a religious autocracy......with a megadose of hypocrisy on the side.......where are the fucking adults?? Oh wait, they moved to Canada........
