Details are murky and no final agreement has been reached, but the plan is under serious enough consideration that the administration has discussed it with Libyan leadership.

In exchange for the resettling of Palestinians, the administration would potentially release to Libya billions of dollars of funds that the U.S. froze more than a decade ago, those three people said.

    There’s absolutely no evidence that Harris getting elected would have done fuck all for Palestine.

    Democrats lost because a lot of people who voted for Biden in 2020 voted for Trump in 2024. This was due to a perception of a majority of voters that Trump was going to do a better job on the economy, immigration, and foreign policy.

    When you look at the polling data, the genocide of Palestinians does not rank high at all, even among Democrats.

    Stop blaming people for what they do with their vote. That’s the entire fucking point of a democracy. Hold the right people accountable for thinking they could coast to victory on a strategy of “not being Trump”.

      Except instead of talking about building a resort in Gaza, she wanted a two state solution.

      I will blame people for a moral failing all I want. Y’all decided to latch on to ONE issue and didn’t give a shit who was harmed because of it, because suddenly, after over half a century of genocide, NOW you gave a shit

      You did what the algorithm wanted you to do, and you don’t care who got hurt or is currently in El Salvador, because hey, at least your shit don’t stink

      My trans son says “fuck you”.

      You are a wannabe. You don’t give a shit about genocide. Because if you did, you’d do everything you could to save lives.

      But instead you decided it was morally superior to let Trump in.

      You’re all bastards who have put my loved ones in danger.

        No. She said her policies didn’t differ from biden’s. biden did nothing to pressure netanyahu to stop the genocide.

        I will blame people for a moral failing all I want.

        Opposing genocide isn’t a moral failure. Supporting it is. You should stop but you won’t.

        You don’t give a shit about genocide. Because if you did, you’d do everything you could to save lives.

        You do give a shit about genocide. You support it so hard that you equate genocide support with support for your trans son.

        Did you see any democrat respond to the constant barrage of hate ads against trans people by actively standing up for trans people? Because I saw them avoiding the issue like the cowards they are and letting republicans move the Overton window to somewhere they were more comfortable with, or running anti-trans hate in their own ads as a preview of where the Fascist Appeasement Party desperately wants to be.

          Voting doesn’t mean I support genocide.

          I guess I support school shootings too? Guess I suppose privatized healthcare as well.

          You’re fuckin reaching.

          I would be too if I assisted Trump regaining power

            I voted for harris as well. I’m not carrying water for her and I’m not going to defend her mistakes by screaming at voters. Her campaign was shit. The only way the party will ever improve is to learn from their mistakes.

            And supporting genocide was a mistake.
