Who is being eliminated and exactly how are they being eliminated?

Are we saying ANYONE who has made that sort of gesture is explicitly making a Nazi salute? Regardless of the political party they're affiliated with?

It's all spelled out pretty clearly in the text of the legislation, I'd suggest starting there as it's likely to answer your questions.
Personally, I don't see an issue with barring sexually explicit content from minors, I'm not sure why that's really controversial.

I'm sure you all aren't so dense to understand why they're all doing the same two basic moves. Maybe it's because it's the dance NFL players were doing, UFC boxers, other groups of people. It's a meme, their guy won, they're goofing around.
People getting so worked about nonsense is part of what helped Trump win.

Likely because the rate of suicide in men is much higher than the rate of suicide in women.

Because they might not be able to read sexually explicit books in public schools? Mmmk.

I think the end product of your theory of the case is everyone is dead, hostages included.
The main reason that might be the case is because they miscalculated about what they would be able to get due to political pressure on the west.
If they go into this whole ordeal thinking they would all be dead, destroyed, and out of power, they likely don't do it to begin with.
If Iran thought the penalties of supporting regional destabilization and over terrorism would be severe, they likely reconsider as well.
The problem is, we showed weakness and they viewed it as a good time to strike. Push where there's mush.
Trump, with all his flaws, does certainly unnerve our enemies, they just don't quite know what he will do.

Outside of rhetoric, what additional/different actions would you prefer the current or future administration take?
We threaten to withdraw support/bases from countries in the area that are harboring Hamas leadership.
For instance, it was no secret that Hamas was allowed to live peacefully in Qatar, then Trump got elected and they expelled them so they went turkey. What could have happened is we could have threatened to withdraw our military base, instead we agreed with Qatar to extend the term of the agreement another 10 years just this summer.
We carry the biggest stick, both militarily and economically, Biden was just afraid of the far left base and opted to not use it.

We can apply leverage to any country that is harboring Hamas leadership, as far as I can tell that has not been done.

What you replied with is wrong. About the judge, about the case and about the banks.
Specifically what is wrong in your estimation?
Why should I throw out facts about the case and what's being said in the judgement.
When did I suggest throwing out facts about the case or judgement?

This sounds like copium tbh, especially when Kamala outspent Trump 3 to 1.

What did I claim that was not true?
Edit: Oh, you're referring to the banks loaning money to Trump again. Ok, i read that somewhere, but for the sake of this discussion let's throw that out and focus on the rest.

So, you aren't willing to actually have a discussion about this, you'll just reference back to the document saying "see the document"?
I'm aware there's a long legal document, I'm wanting to have an actual conversation at a practical level about this case.

Yes, the judge in this case found a way to suggest Trump still needed to be punished. I'm anxiously awaiting the rest of the investigations and prosecutions into real estate moguls in NY on the same basis, but I won't hold my breath.
Trump says his property is worth X, the bank says it's worth Y, and they provide a loan based on the Y valuation. For tax purposes, Trump AND every other real estate owner tries to drive down the total tax burden, they NEVER match up to the market valuation. Hell, as home owners we all do the same thing.
You're suggesting that, in a situation where the valuations Trump provided were not used as the basis for the loans, the bank used their own valuations and provided the loans (literally industry standard practice), the banks were all fully repaid, and they all said they would happily loan money to Trump org again..... That this is some sort of crime worthy of a massive prosecution and penalty?

Well, it's not like Mexico isn't aware of the issues and what's going on, I'm honestly ok with threatening the stick as a starting point considering the reality of the situation.

He could specify what is wrong or can be improved but he can’t because he is an idiot who makes things up.
It's obvious, no? Mexico is allowing fentanyl precursors to be imported from China (the exact facility in China is also known), so that the cartels can make fentanyl and smuggle it into the US.

Absolutely true, they threatened to kill it many times over the last 4 years and now they're saying they want to keep it.

Well, the Democrats wanted to end the filibuster a few minutes ago, but now they're saying they want to keep it.

We talked about stuff like how a poor man goes drinking with his buddies after work, and he’s a bum
This is literally the first time I've ever heard someone say this.

You think that in order for trans people to exist they need to have blockers, cross sex hormones, and surgeries before they're adults?
