President Biden vowed on Monday to veto a House Republican bill that would provide $17.6 billion in aid to Israel, calling it a “cynical political maneuver” intended to hurt the chances of passage for broader legislation that would provide money for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and the U.S. border.

House Republicans fiercely oppose the larger bill, which was unveiled by a small, bipartisan group of senators over the weekend. It calls for $118.3 billion in spending and would overhaul some of the nation’s immigration laws to deal with recent surges of migrants at the southern border.

    Scale, context and nuance is absolutely everything, thinking in absolutist black and white terms makes you a child that just parrots without an ounce of critical thought, assuming that statements that are applicable to some situations are right for other situations, this is self-evident to everyone here except you, hence you’re getting clowned on.

    Hope that explains it!
