If you haven't figured it out by now, our entire
government is a huge mafia who launders our tax payer money right back to themselves through foreign aid and endless wars. They all hate you and could care less if you suffer and die horrible deaths, as long as they get dirty rich.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE CLEAR: NO MORE U.S. AID TO ISRAEL
Today, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on an amendment introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie to cut the $3.3 billion in annual U.S. military aid to Israel. I strongly support this amendment.
Israel, like any other country, had the right to defend itself against the horrific terrorist attack by Hamas on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,200 innocent people. But it did not have the right to go to war against the entire Palestinian population. It did not have the right to kill more than 73,000 Palestinians and wound over 173,000 more — the vast majority of them women, children and the elderly. It did not have the right to destroy virtually the entire infrastructure of Gaza — the schools, the health facilities, the water systems, wastewater plants, the electric grid that a civilian population depends on to survive. It did not have the right to destroy or damage 92% of all housing units in Gaza. In other words, Israel did not have the right to commit genocide. And it did not have the right to escalate its violence and annexation of the West Bank while the world's attention was focused elsewhere.
Tragically, almost five months ago, Israel, with strong support from the Trump administration, launched a reckless and illegal war against Iran — a war that has killed thousands of people and left an already unstable region of the world even more unstable. That war expanded into Lebanon, where Israeli strikes have now killed more than 4,000 people and displaced some 20% of the entire Lebanese population. That is not "defending Israel". These are regional wars of expansion and terror, waged without a clear strategy, and without an end in sight.
The American people are catching on. Polls show that nearly three-quarters of Democratic voters now oppose sending military aid to Israel, as do more than one-third of Republican voters. Just 16% of all Americans support giving Israel unconditional aid.
And I am proud that this past April, 40 out of 47 Senate Democrats — a record number — supported my bill to block arms sales to the far-right, extremist Netanyahu government.
We have enormous unmet needs in our own country. Today, while 60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck, tens of millions of Americans cannot afford housing, healthcare, childcare and other basic needs. Congress must focus on the needs of their constituents, not an Israeli government that is undermining American values. I urge my colleagues in the House to vote yes on the Massie amendment.
Does anyone understand why Section 219 should be an absolute fucking NO in Congress, and do you understand the major implications if it passes?
It will literally become federal law, and it will be almost impossible to reverse.
Our tax dollars will fund the weapons, but Israel gets to co-own them and use them wherever and whenever they want—Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, etc., etc., etc. This is in addition to the $3.3 billion we already give Israel every year in military aid.
If Israel wants more, they won’t have to get congressional approval. The money will be pulled directly out of the Pentagon’s main $1.15 trillion baseline military budget as needed—the budget American taxpayers fund.
Israel will be able to legally block the U.S. from giving weapons to other American allies, like Ukraine.
We will lose our sovereignty. The U.S. will be giving up control of our military technology to a foreign nation while American citizens foot the bill.
Over 60% of Americans have an unfavorable view of Israel.
Only 15% of Americans have a favorable view of Congress.
And we’re going to let them push this through?
Palestinian goalkeeper Salim Al-Ashqar has been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.
He leaves behind his wife of 5 months who is expecting their first child.
IDF officers laughing as little Gazan toddlers shake with their legs blown off. Israelis shooting a 4-year-old girl in the street and mocking her brother for trying to save her.
This is why they bought big corporate media, social media influencers, and Tik Tok.
They kept authentic footage from Gaza hidden from Evangelical Christian America and flooded the media and social platforms with fake propaganda showing “See! Everything is fine over there!”
They knew that if any Jesus-loving Christian saw the truth and the reality of the horrors in Gaza, they would know this is not a “chosen” people by God but an extension of the satanic kingdom.
The Jesus I serve loves the little children. Christian America was lied to and deceived. America needs an exorcism from the demon called Israel.
Genuinely insane stuff. The law will require the pentagon to make itself dependent on Israel. Israeli tech, Israeli AI systems etc will be integrated into all the highest classification functions of the US military. They lost the public opinion war so now they’re going to set it up so any future anti-Israel president will be deposed in a military coup
77% of Dems think Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, only 11% disagree. Liberals watched toddlers torn to shreds for months on end while Goldman and a Dem president backed the slaughter. The idea that this would have no political blowback is as obscene as it is deluded.
Jennifer Welch: “What happened in New York last night are the citizens standing up against corporations, against fascism, against MAGA, against corporate Democrats, against establishment Democrats, and this is hopefully going to sweep the entire country. Not wanting to fund a country that intentionally targets children is not radical in the least. It is radical, homicidal, and genocidal to kill kids and then to call the people who oppose that antisemitic assholes. This is the biggest bunch of gaslighting fuckery on the planet”
This is not a normal statement from a normal cabinet member of a major nation.
This statement from Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir is the statement of a war criminal.
The racist, extremist Israeli government does not deserve one nickel of U.S. support.
I am proud to be the first Democrat to take this pledge to reject money from AIPAC and affiliated groups, recognize the genocide in Gaza, and oppose aid to Israel and military sales that kill civilians.
