War in GAZA

A fireball erupts during Israeli bombardment in the northern Gaza Strip on October 14, 2023.

 

How are the Republican candidates going to handle the War in Gaza?

Already there are clips and quotes from both Haley and Vivek that take shots at one another.

Haley says, "half of Gaza residents want to be free from Hamas ‘terrorist rule."
Haley - NY Post

Vivek says, "If it can happen in Israel, it can happen in America"

Why do candidates go after one another on matters like this? This could have been a chance for everyone to come together and be unified, but instead they use it to benefit themselves and put down their opponent.

Let's talk about it.

    As far as I'm aware, and please correct me if I'm wrong, Mr. Ramaswamy has never held political office and has no experience in foreign relations or foreign policy matters. Ms. Haley however, in addition for serving as Governor of South Carolina, was the US Ambassador to the United Nations and became quite well known for her position on Israel. Ms. Haley has first-hand knowledge of the region and the people to speak out on this topic. Perhaps my perception of Mr. Ramaswamy is a big negative, he seems to be doom and gloom and yet he tries to convince us he is our new savior. I'm not buying it. Since the Israel-Hamas War is so contentious, maybe they would best be served to concentrate on issues at home such as why our House of Representatives can't get it together and vote in a new Speaker. I would love to see all of our candidates come together and address that!

    This is a great point to bring up! It really shows how stupid we can be as a nation. Their are innocent children dying but instead of coming together candidates want to use this tragic war as ways to push their political agenda. It seems to me Ramaswamy is using fear mongering of this war on US citizens! It's such a shame. Hopefully we as U.S. citizens come together during a time like this unlike our politicians.

    I feel like most political attacks are strictly for political gain. We see it constantly when candidates attempt to find any small things to argue on. Since politics has become so polarized, it's so rare to see any opposing candidates agreeing on something. However, as far the situation in Gaza, as Kellie stated, Haley does have more knowledge and experience when it comes to speaking on foreign issues. Therefore, in my opinion Vivek should consider becoming more knowledgable of issues before attempting to argue about it.

Welcome Mr. Speaker

  There is finally a new Speaker of the House, Congressman Mike Johnson of Louisiana. It took the Republican party 22 days to get the speaker the gavel. What I learned is that there can be no business done during the time of a Speaker vacancy, a lot happened in 22 days and a lot more could have happened.  Perhaps there should be an amendment that there is someone that can run the House in a vacancy until one is voted in. Let's talk about it. https://www.house.gov/feature-stories/2023-10-25-new-speaker-of-the-house

Thank you, farewell and let’s keep talking about it

 Thank you everyone for the time you have taken out of your days to come reflect and maybe ask yourself some thought provoking questions about how this whole political system works.  It’s been a pleasure sharing some of my thoughts with you and getting your feedback.  What a fast semester we had though.  Let’s talk about it.

Is a Biden impeachment on its way?

CNN is reporting that the White House has sent a letter to news executives urging them to 'ramp up' scrutiny of Republican's Biden impeachment inquiry 'based on lies' What does that even mean?  It seems as though the White House, Democrats, CNN and other news organizations believe that the GOP is on a witch hunt, some is lying and there is no evidence of any high crimes or misdemeanors that President Biden has committed.  Fox News had a similar response when then Pres. Trump was being impeached.  Which leaves the question, has the impeachment process been politicized and will be used by the party in control of the House of Representatives now? Will we see an impeachment every four years if the President is a different party than the majority? This is a slippery slope and Americans should be worried.   Let's talk about it.
