    Bureaucracy takes time, unfortunately.

    If they can take lessons learned and come up with a new package that even the current Supreme Court can’t strike down with that extra time, so much the better. (Sadly, I suspect that the current SC will just throw out jurisprudence entirely and give unsound decision after unsound decision to stop this, but if there’s a one in a million chance that they can find a line that even the current SC wouldn’t cross to stop this…)

        Unless literal congressional action and 3/4 of a century of foreign policy mandate otherwise… but keep going back that far for grievances…

          He circumvented congress and is ignoring the Leahy Law. And “that’s the way we’ve always done it” is only a convincing argument to those that like what maintaining the status quo accomplishes in Gaza.

          If you don’t like me pointing out how priorities get fast tracked while things that aren’t priorities get slow walked, oh well.

            Correct. There are more things going on than the one single thing you care about.

                If shouldn’t be silenced. Never said that.
                There are more things happening in the world though.

                  Cool. Tell the rest of lemmy.

                  Yup. Things that aren’t as important to Biden as making sure Bibi got his genocidin’ weapons.

                  If our government can so happily stand by and let us children be killed in Gaza, how do you think they feel about everything else going on?
