For the second time in the less than four months, the US Senate has resoundingly voted in support of continuing the genocide in Gaza by rejecting two resolutions aimed at blocking some $9 billion in weapons to the Israeli government.
If I have to vote for mid term, likely third party. Then Democrats have that Pikachu face. They have been compromised
They have been compromised
That’s exactly. They have been compromised by a foreign government.
It’s worth noting that all of the 15 voting to restrict arms sales were Democrats.
Noted
These are the 15 Democrats that actually gave a shit about human rights and ending genocide:
Bernie Sanders (Vt.),
Richard Durbin (Ill.),
Martin Heinrich (N.M.),
Mazie Hirono (Hawaii),
Ben Ray Luján (N.M.),
Tim Kaine (Va.),
Andy Kim (N.J.),
Ed Markey (Mass.),
Jeff Merkley (Ore.),
Chris Murphy (Conn.),
Brian Schatz (Hawaii),
Tina Smith (Minn.),
Chris Van Hollen (Md.),
Elizabeth Warren (Mass.),
Peter Welch (Vt.).
Fuck every other Democrat and Republican Senator that voted to support genocide
No. Fuck those 15 people for still being part of a genocidal organisation
Right. They should resign. So 100% of the organization can support Israel in peace. That’ll fix everything. Good plan.
Better Plan: vote in representatives that represent you, and stop listening to those that make you feel warm and fuzzy. But, this is a harder plan. Requires the majority of voters to, you know, try.
So 15% of the senate, 30% of the partizan faction in the Democratic Party feels this way.
It may be that this is an issue that is large enough to be electorally relevant.
Compared to 61% of all constituents, 70% of just democratic constituents (as of jan 18 2025)
WHY is it so fucking hard for them to take a hard line against genocide?? What the fuck. I feel like I’m going crazy watching this.
That’s exactly it. I just don’t get it. Seems like a no-brainer to me, but apparently I’m wrong.
I guess it’s about money? Or they still think that being against genocide will lose them votes in the future? Or something.
No, its profit. They’re making big bucks on the weapon sales.
Over half of the US population is opposed to sending weapons to the Zionists.

I am old enough to remember 9/11. The only reason I can think of is that the US wants Muslims to die and they don’t care who does it.
This is why Canada doesn’t want any of you cunts here.
Good! We wouldn’t Want to ALIENATE the REPUBLICANS who will NEVER Vote for Us!
But alienating our base so that we can lose elections to MAGA republicans is perfectly OK.
Obviously, the problem is with the voters, not us, say the Democrats.
Israel seems to own chuck and therefore Senate Democrats.
It is a coldly political calculation. The Dems are afraid that if they refuse to facililitate Israeli genocide, then American Jews won’t vote for them. At the same time, MAGA Nazis will step right up and pledge to kill every Muslim in the Middle East, and sweep up every vote.
The Dems can’t afford to lose a fairly monolithic voting block.
Alternatively both parties benefit from this genocide, which seems more likely
Our government is full of geriatric fucks who are on the wrong side of history. Plus some younger ones on the wrong side. Basically none of them represent the will of the majority of young people. But it’s fine, whatever, fuck it.
Senate Democrats couldn’t overwhelm anything right now.
LOL. “but why do ppl not vote?”
usa is no democracy. it has always been a wet dream for greedy pigs.
throw them out. may the real native americans get their land back.
A correct headline: most of the Democrats and all of the Republicans supported the genocide.
Even more correct: most of the US government supports genocide, and don’t care that their constituents don’t.
OH WAIT I THOUGH THINGS WERE GONNA GET BETTER WITH TURUMP KAMALA WOULD HAVE NEVER KEEP GENOCIDING. THE LEFTISS COST US THE ELECTION
MY IQ IS 6
In his speech, Sanders, an agent of US imperialism, observed that the US ruling class’ open support for war crimes in Gaza undercuts attempts by Washington to advance “human rights” arguments to justify US interventions and military actions around the world.
Does anyone know why this site refers to Senator Sanders as an “agent of US imperialism”?
This is very strange and makes it difficult to take this article seriously - which is a shame given the ongoing genocide.
It is a socialist website, they still love to be edgy no matter how old they are.
He’s a democrat
Because Sanders says Israel has the right to defend itself, refuses to call it a genocide, wants to send interceptors to Israel and blames the entire genocide on Hamas and Netanyahu insread of Israel.
“Democrats are completely different than Republicans, they want to help people! Anyone saying otherwise supports Trump and is a useful idiot!”
Adding this to the list of things Democrats and Republicans agree on, in 2025.
Do you think Jeffrey Epstein was the first or the only guy blackmailing politicians and officials for Mossad?
Truly a victory for bipartisanship
Is it good? That’s not germane.
