Sorry -- you'll not be dodging these criticisms. 🤣🤣🤣 We SEE you. We know you'll cave on any fight that impedes your career. Even if the stakes are supporting a genocide.
Someday soon, what’s been obvious to so many of us from the beginning will be understood by everyone: that if a city can be reduced to rubble with its people held captive inside, if they can be starved in full view of the world, everything is permitted, and this threatens us all.
This you?
.@SenAmyKlobuchar: "Acute malnutrition is rising. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed in recent weeks while seeking food, most in the vicinity of Gaza Humanitarian Foundation distribution sites and others on the routes of aid convoys. This is simply unacceptable."
The worst thing Donald Trump has ever done is commit genocide in Gaza. Everything else pales in comparison. He could end the Gaza holocaust with a phone call just like Biden could have, and he hasn't. For that reason alone he deserves to die in a cage.
We’ve been asked to believe a lot of intensely stupid narratives throughout this genocide, but “it’s actually HAMAS who’s starving Gaza” has got to be the dumbest one yet.
Do the Democrats know they were in charge for twelve of these sixteen years? Are they really this stupid?
Today I testified at a hearing in Trenton, New Jersey to the State Assembly and local government committee to oppose the adoption of Bill A3558 in New Jersey. The bill would accept the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism, which…
@AOC's NO vote on the amendment to cut $500 million of U.S. funding to the Israeli military is utterly indefensible, and amounts to support for the genocide in Gaza. And except for the handful of them like @RashidaTlaib and @IlhanMN, the same goes for every single one of AOC’s…
Marjorie Taylor Greene’s amendment does nothing to cut off offensive aid to Israel nor end the flow of US munitions being used in Gaza. Of course I voted against it. What it does do is cut off defensive Iron Dome capacities while allowing the actual bombs killing Palestinians to…
This is such a good point. The photos are right there. Western media outlets are perfectly capable of using them. They don't post images of the skeletal children for the same reason they publish "Palestinians perish as explosion occurs" passive-language headlines.
Has there been a single image of dead Palestinian children, or starving ones looking like skeletons, in the NYT or WaPo or in any other daily paper, or on CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, or any local news program? Not AFAIK. People are being kept ignorant of the true horror.
People are watching a system that is using mass starvation on tens of thousands of children in Gaza while severely punishing those protesting it and leadership of the nominally liberal party say absolutely nothing about it or openly cheerleads it.
BREAKING: Columbia University has announced mass sanctions on nearly 80 pro-Palestine protesters — they have been suspended for 1 to 3 years or expelled from Columbia for joining a protest at the university's Butler Library in May this year, according to Columbia University…
The silence of prominent Democrats throughout the obliteration of Gaza is a moral stain on the party that will be impossible to ever remove
I know the 2024 Dem pitch for Gaza was 10% less genocide but Trump’s been in office 6 mo’s, and accelerated the genocide for four, and the two most powerful Dems, Schumer and Jeffries haven’t issued a single criticism of Trump’s Gaza policy. Neither has Harris, Biden or Obama.
Bernie Sanders has the exact same position btw: x.com/zei_squirrel/s…
Bernie Sanders' comms team on social media deceiving his followers into thinking he supports an arms embargo on Israel: "No more U.S. military aid to Israel!" Bernie Sanders on the Senate floor just recently and his entire voting record: "I support giving Israel its essential…
She doesn't "miss" it, Nathan, she willfully ignores it. If someone brought up the idea of defensive weapons for, say, Russia or Iran, she'd be the first to say exactly what you just said.
What AOC misses about Israel's "defensive" weaponry is that the defense enables the offense. It's because Israel is protected by a US-funded "Iron Dome" that it's able to brutally attack its neighbors and do whatever it wants without receiving comparable damage itself.
Our opponent, pro-genocide Democratic Congressmember Adam Smith, is being bankrolled by all sorts of deeply dystopian right-wing reactionary billionaires. Alexander Karp, right-wing billionaire and CEO of war profiteer Palantir corporation, has already maxed out his donation to…
Democrats are at a 19% approval rate after Kamala's disastrous campaign. And yet they're still trying to scapegoat @DrJillStein. Pathetic.
Where does Jill Stein go for three years between Presidential elections? Where does she live? Does she have a job?
Democrats are at 19% approval after Kamala's disastrous campaign. And they're still trying to scapegoat third-party candidates?
75 year old retired Harvard educated physician Dr. Jill Stein is still actively fighting for the rights of working people, Palestinians, & other marginalized groups. Meanwhile, we last saw Kamala at the Met Gala.
I do not want to hear any shit about Oct. 7th. Palestinians have lived and died through 27,000 Oct. 7ths. The world is watching 10's of thousands of starving Palestinians racing for food and GETTING SHOT DEAD.
The Iron Dome allows the Israeli regime to carry out mass genocidal violence with impunity - they face no consequences no matter how many people they kill. Support @cmkshama for Congress to fight to end all US military aid to Israel and to end the occupation of Palestinian lands
Christ, and I thought your cowardice around force the vote was impressive. This is next level. You politicians must get some special pills the general public doesn't have access to because no normal person would be able to sleep at night after doing this. Shameful.
