        sure, something about a broken clock right twice a day. But progressive members of the democrats voted with MTG’s amendment because no one should be arming a genocidal state during a genocidal campaign to ethnically cleanse the Palestinian people. You care more about optics of not wanting to ‘hand it to MTG’ over the real experience of Palestinians?

        And only just a few democrats voted with MTG here.

        This just shows you how pathetic the democrats, except a few members are.

        Shame on AOC for voting against this during a genocidal campaign. Absolute shame. She has a lot of explaining to do for her so-called ‘progressive’ credentials.

          but think of the optics 😭

          you can’t show that a loon from the republicans has more sense (in this one instance) than most democrats. you absolutely can’t 😭

        I didn’t ask you to. I think AOC voted wrong. I asked about Talib et al.

        Do you think Talib was incorrect in her vote? Do you think her voting to defund Israel was wrong?
