The administration claimed that blocking arms transfers would embolden Hamas — ignoring Israel’s genocidal slaughter.

    Sure, then you can have Republicans replace them and be assured it never comes up for a vote at all. The logic is outstanding.

      You mean the logic of just ignoring that primaries exist in order to prop op the false dichotomy that led to losing all parts of the government to a literal fascist party?

      Yeah, your logic IS outstandingly bad.

        Republicans will not allow a vote on the floor to limit Israeli arms. Democrats did. Simple

          Again falsely assuming that the only Democrats possible are the crappy Republican Lite Neoliberals that lost everything to the fascists 🙄

      Exactly. There’s going to be a lot of calls for Democrats to eat each other in the next 4 years.

          For some, that time is coming. Come nov 2026 midterms all class 2 senators are up for reelection (and then class 3 in 2028). While there are more Republicans up at that point than Democrats, the strategy will be the same, and many of those Republican seats seem pretty safe.

            And Republicans will never allow the Senate to vote on arms supply to Israel. It’s really that simple.

              Yep. And trolls will paint this as “both sides the same.” I wonder if Trump will get a “genocide” moniker?
