That means Biden secured the release of 83% of all hostages — a fact you’d barely hear in the headlines. If anyone’s earned the title of “Peace President,” it’s #46 — not the guy bombing fishing boats in international waters and unleashing masked agents on Americans.

There are drone strikes occurring in Gaza, in violation of the ceasefire.

Just so everyone knows.

It was a real estate transaction, not a peace plan.

The ATL airport is boldly supporting Pride, turning down over $37M in federal funds rather than abandon its DEI initiatives. A powerful stand for inclusion, equity, and local leadership over political pressure. apnews.com

Facts: When Biden was president,the Epstein files were under strict federal court orders. Federal judges controlled the records to protect the privacy of victims. Biden could not overrule those protections and no president can bypass federal judges to release sealed evidence to the public.

Netanyahu would have waited for Trump, whining abt the pressure and trying to make her lose.

But, Dems ARE HORRIBLE at politics.

Hostages Returned:

Biden: 123. (86%)
Trump: 20. (14%)

The hostage release is a reminder of how bad the Dems are at politics. Not only did Biden refuse to force this deal on Netanyahu & thereby help Harris win, but most people aren’t even aware that Biden got way more Israeli hostages (over 100) released with his 2023 ceasefire than Trump did with his.

“In 2023, PresidentBiden helped get over 105 hostages in Gaza released. Biden & his admin played a major role in securing the 2023 hostage release. THE DIFFERENCE:Biden didn't make it all about himself.”

And when Bibi went to Mar-a-Lardo, trump asked him to kill the plan until after the election.

What did Tom Homan do with the $50K he took in a CAVA bag from undercover FBI agents?

Just keep asking this everyday. Its a big scandal they can't escape because Pam Bondi and her DOJ killed the investigation. They're cornered on this and the Epstein Files.
