AOC and the Squad, which is supposedly the progressive wing of US politics, have come out to endorse Joe Biden with zero requests, leverage, or pushes on any position. They’re even giving the highest of praise: “I know who I’m going to choose,” Ocasio-Cortez said to Jake Tapper. “It’s going to be one of the most successful presidents in modern American history.” We know she can’t be talking about his success on issues like abortion, student debt, homelessness, or healthcare. US oil drilling is at a new high and there are more kids in cages at the border than there were under Trump, so likely not those either. Which only leaves one thing: Joe Biden is the most successful president when it comes to the mass murder of innocent civilians. And on that issue, we can’t disagree with the Squad. But Biden’s team is working overtime to cover this up. Katie and Aaron watch the most pathetic clips you’ve ever seen of Jake Sullivan, John Kirby, and Matthew Miller, who all bend over backward to claim that Biden’s weak whispers are forcing Israel to reconsider its genocide. But after a week where the world watched Israel force Gazan survivors to pack into the densely-populated area of Rafah only to bomb it under the cover of the Super Bowl, the spewings of these slimy spokesmen are sounding more sadistic than ever. Oh, and wait until you hear Rachel Maddow’s new lie, as she leans further into her Fox News era than we’ve ever seen her before. It’s our Thursday bonus episode. Let us know in the comments what corporate media monologues, interviews, or anything else you want to see on the next Thursday Throwdown.
