They do the exact same thing when it comes to the Bible. They love the judging part but completely ignore the love your neighbor commands.
I mean, they don't even really love the judging part, since it requires that they don't judge unless they themselves wish to be judged; they conveniently forget that part about the judgment being both ways.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,

Yeah, but it was that hippie Jesus saying “Judge not lest ye be judged,” so they ignore that part.

Dear Fox, I can't figure out why you have a reporter live reporting on the border crises from Bisbee AZ. I have been through there and 1) it's a bit of a trek from any border with Mexico. 2) it's awfully remote and high in the mountains without any resources for migrants that I can recall. 3) That gas station you were broadcasting from does not look like Bisbee (old Copper mining town with old architecture.

But hey, you proclaimed all these immigrants lined up waiting to get in as "illegal", so guess I'm :oldlady:

Hegseth was just on F&F commenting on the Ukraine aid package, made some comments (paraphrasing) that nations like Ukraine (and NATO nations), if they feel threatened by bad actor nations, they should build up their military to defend themselves properly without relying on US to protect them. Why look at Israel, surrounded by Muslim nations and they have sufficient military to take care of themselves.

Bisbee has history in this kind of shenanigans. Maybe they are trying to repeat history.

Wikipedia: Bisbee Deportation
The Bisbee Deportation was the illegal kidnapping and deportation of about 1,300 striking mine workers, their supporters, and citizen bystanders by 2,000 members of a deputized posse, who arrested them beginning on July 12, 1917, in Bisbee, Arizona. The action was orchestrated by Phelps Dodge, the major mining company in the area, which provided lists of workers and others who were to be arrested to the Cochise County sheriff, Harry C. Wheeler. Those arrested were taken to a local baseball park before being loaded onto cattle cars and deported 200 miles (320 km) to Tres Hermanas in New Mexico. The 16-hour journey was through desert without food and with little water. Once unloaded, the deportees, most without money or transportation, were warned against returning to Bisbee. The US government soon brought in members of the US Army to assist with relocating the deportees to Columbus, New Mexico.
There are other, more detailed reports in the innertubes. Google is your friend.

Yeah, it's early and I have a cold so too lazy to look up US military aid to Israel, but don't we give them lots of money?

A quick Google search showed this. I do not know if this site is reputable or accurate, but the number seems plausible.

https://usafacts.org/articles/how-much- ... to-israel/

Their answer: $3.8B in 2019.

So, yeah, we give Israel a pretty fair amount of military aid.

Imagine that. Let's encourage Ron F, Aaron Rupar or @acyn to get a clip and ask Hegseth to clarify... :dance:

I think this is the Right wing begging an argument or begging the fact-check. They want "the left" to point out that they are lying so that they can claim they are under attack and get FOX time and "Both sides" time on the rest of the Mediots.

It's worse. Fox is setting up those twins to take the fall for George Santos somehow. I just know it.
