They've Lost Me

It looks like Chuck Schumer is going to join hands with Trump sycophant Mike Johnson to invite Bibi Netanyahu (!!) to speak to a joint session of Congress. Recall that last time Netanyahu came to Congress he insulted our sitting president, with the tacit approval of the Repubs. Indeed, that was probably the exact reason the Repubs wanted him invited. It is no secret that Netanyahu and his extremist government want Donald Trump to be president. The internet is full of Democratic vote shamers telling people that not voting is a vote fror Trump. Now the top Democrat in the Senate seems ready to  invite one of Trump's biggest allies to Congress.

This is kind of it for me and the Dems. They lost me. We already knew that the Congressional Republicans work under the direction of AIPAC and the ADL Apparently the Senate Democratic leadership is admitting that they also heed to the same marching orders.

Earlier this week Antony Blinken also committed himself to working with the Republican insurrectionists to "sanction" the ICC for doing its job. Apparently the Biden/Blinken foreign policy team believes that the "rules-based international order" only applies to Russia and countries in Africa.

The dishonesty that the Democrats are willing to employ vis-a-vis Gaza is appalling and causes me to question their character and integrity. They are marching arm-in-arm with Elise Stefanik and Tom Cotton and Josh Hawley and AIPAC (which supports January 6th insurrectionist election deniers with millions of dollars in campaign contributions).
