Republican thugs

They still need the Jews in Israel if they’re going to make their cockamamie religious prophecies come true. Via Zeteo:

A group of influential Republican senators has sent a letter to International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor Karim Khan, warning him not to issue international arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli officials, and threatening him with “severe sanctions” if he does so.

In a terse, one-page letter obtained exclusively by Zeteo, and signed by 12 GOP senators, including Tom Cotton of Arkansas, Florida’s Marco Rubio, and Ted Cruz of Texas, Khan is informed that any attempt by the ICC to hold Netanyahu and his colleagues to account for their actions in Gaza will be interpreted “not only as a threat to Israel’s sovereignty but to the sovereignty of the United States.”

“Target Israel and we will target you,” the senators tell Khan, adding that they will “sanction your employees and associates, and bar you and your families from the United States.”

Rather ominously, the letter concludes: “You have been warned.”

And isn’t this interesting?

I don’t get it

Here’s what I remember: I couldn’t get a covid test because my fever was “only” 100 and the Trump administration required 101 in order to be eligible for a test (because they wanted to suppress the number of positive cases); I remember the constant wail of sirens in the background as network news covered the frightening death toll in NYC; I remember big cities had to use refrigerated trucks to store all the bodies; that the supply chain was so screwed up for so long, I had to do my Christmas shopping in September to get the gifts by Christmas; I remember people being out of work and desperate for food. I remember the crime rates soaring. I remember people blowing up ATMs; I heard the explosions almost every night.

I’m sure there’s more, that’s just off the top of my head.

What were these great times people remember? Who are these people?
