    I think at this point Biden doesn’t give a flying fuck. His political career is coming to a close and he can retire.

      You are correct, it’s clear he doesn’t care. It’s just a shame that the mask-off, nothing to lose Biden still bends over backwards to help Israel commit genocide, commutes this sentence in particular, and pardons his own son while doing nothing that the average American could consider helpful. Mask-off Biden really sucks.

        I don’t understand why people think he would react any other way. He has always been a Zionist and his views have not changed. Not that as President he has much choice not to cave the desire of allies and the pressure of the military industrial complex.

        I do wish he at least showed some backbone about Israel’s genocide, but honestly the US has a historical background to f not giving a fuck. Do people not remember all the atrocities that the US committed in Iraq/Afghanistan under Bush?

      Maybe, and hear me out here, maybe it wasn’t a great idea to treat a president as king with no way to reign in their power other than waiting until the next election cycle.

        There are multiple ways to reign in a president.

        If politicians are unwilling to take any of those ways, then it’s not only the president lacking accountability.
