Talks to address Iran’s nuclear program were planned for Sunday. Instead Netanyahu launched illegal strikes on Iran, killing a top ceasefire negotiator, undermining U.S. diplomatic efforts & putting countless innocent lives at risk. We can’t be dragged into another Netanyahu war.
The war in Gaza has killed or injured 170,000.
Children are starving to death.
Trump is encouraging the ethnic cleansing of 2.2 million people.
Why is there no discussion in the US government about why we are spending billions of taxpayer dollars starving children in Gaza?
Why is almost nobody in Washington talking about the horrific humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Gaza?
That's what I am talking about LIVE on the Senate floor. https://t.co/QW0RR8zMwU
HARVARD WON THIS ROUND!
Secretary of Education Linda McMahon wrote a letter to Harvard. The university responded by marking up the letter for spelling and punctuation mistakes- and then shared it on social media.
Your thoughts?
64 days with no aid reaching Gaza. No food, no water, no medicine. Children are starving.
Netanyahu’s extremist government now says it will occupy Gaza and put mercenaries in charge of distributing aid, instead of the UN and other aid groups.
Despicable. No more US support for Netanyahu’s war machine.
It's been 51 days since ANY humanitarian aid has entered Gaza. Israeli Minister of Defense Katz has said: "Israel’s policy is clear: no humanitarian aid will enter Gaza."
This is a war crime.
We must end our complicity. NO more military aid for Netanyahu's war machine.
Netanyahu loves Trump's plan to force 2 million people from Gaza & turn it into a billionaires’ Riviera. He calls it "voluntary migration.”
It's not voluntary if you bomb & starve those who stay.
It’s ethnic cleansing. It's a war crime.
No more military aid to Netanyahu.
50,000 people in Gaza are dead. 114,000 wounded. Two-thirds of the casualties are women, children, or elderly people. The entire infrastructure has been destroyed.
Much of that devastation has been done with U.S. bombs supplied to Netanyahu's war machine. We are complicit.
It has now been 30 days with NO humanitarian aid getting into Gaza.
No food, no water, no medicine, no fuel.
That is barbaric. The U.S. must end our complicity in these atrocities.
Netanyahu's illegal war has killed 50,000 Palestinians. Now, Trump wants to force out 2 million more to build a billionaire's playground in Gaza.
That is ethnic cleansing — and it’s a war crime.
Next week, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in new arms sales to Israel.
Trump is trying to deport a Columbia Univ. student who has been a permanent resident in the U.S. since she was 7.
Her "crime”?
Attending a protest against the war in Gaza.
No, Mr. President. This is a democracy. You can't exile political dissidents. Not in the United States.
The 2.2 million people in Gaza have endured unimaginable suffering.
More than 47,000 killed. More than 111,000 injured. Schools, hospitals, homes - all destroyed.
Now Trump wants to force them out of their homeland so he can turn it into a playground for the rich.
Unspeakable.
47,000+ Palestinians killed. 111,000 injured.
Trump’s response? Forcibly expel Palestinians to make Gaza “a real estate development for the future. A beautiful piece of land.”
No. Gaza must be rebuilt for the Palestinian people, not billionaire tourists.
“If you only wished to be happy, this could be easily accomplished; but we wish to be happier than other people, and this is always difficult, for we believe others to be happier than they are.” - Montesquieu
Oligarchy is not just a Russian phenomenon. It exists right here in the USA.
In 2024, just 150 billionaire families spent nearly $2 billion to purchase candidates.
We must stand together to save democracy.
Netanyahu, Gallant, and Deif have all launched indiscriminate attacks against civilians and caused unimaginable human suffering.
If the world does not uphold international law, we will descend into further barbarism.
I agree with the ICC.
Last night, 19 Senators voted to end illegal arms sales to Israel.
We stood up to AIPAC, the Democratic Senate leadership, and the Biden administration.
We must continue going forward to end illegal arms sales and hold Netanyahu accountable for his war crimes.
Tune in LIVE to our press conference ahead of tomorrow's vote to block offensive arms sales to Israel.
The United States must stop blatantly violating its own laws by selling more of the offensive weapons Israel is using against civilians in Gaza. https://t.co/4JePxgIANX
