President Biden told a Democratic lawmaker and members of his Cabinet after the State of the Union address that he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that they will need to have a “come-to-Jesus meeting.”

Biden’s comments, captured on a hot mic as he spoke with Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) on the floor of the House chamber, came after Bennet congratulated the commander in chief on his speech and pressed him to keep pressure on Netanyahu over increasing humanitarian issues in Gaza.

        I started the thread. You’ve done nothing but try and derail. Do you have any thoughts on the structuring (illegal by the way) of arms sales to Israel or are you a troll?

          I just noticed that about 8-10 upvotes dropped all at once to your comments in this exchange, and a similar number of downvotes all at once to mine. Would it offend you if I investigated in some detail where all those votes came from?

            No that’s sketchy as fuck and I’m thinking one of the other 2 guys think they’re being funny. I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about in terms of investigation though, sherlock.

              A whole bunch of people with 3-week-old accounts really developed strong feelings about who’s right on the issue about 25 minutes ago 🙂. Which other 2 guys do you mean; FuglyDuck and someone else?
