Unfortunately the Rule passed just now and no debate or vote was allowed on section 219, integration of US military technology and supply chains with Israel’s.
The NDAA will receive a recorded vote tomorrow with section 219 in it. I’ll vote no.
Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF.
This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy.
Every member of Congress must vote NO.
Americans are saying loudly and clearly: No more U.S. military support for the extremist Netanyahu government.
That is why Congress must vote NO on the defense spending bill, which brings the U.S. and Israeli militaries even closer together.
Final vote total for the NDAA today which tragically merges our military technology and supply chains with Israel’s. Let’s hope this version fails in the Senate because Section 219 is a betrayal of our sovereignty.
Unfortunately, the House just voted to merge the most secretive & sensitive elements of our defense & intelligence apparatus with a foreign government.
This bill still has to clear the Senate.
Call your senators & representatives and tell them to not support the NDAA until the merger w/ Israel (Section 219) is removed.
Senate switchboard: (202) 224-3121
Total betrayal.
The House of Representatives passed the NDAA 216-212.
7 Republicans voted NO.
6 Democrats voted YES.
This $1.1 trillion dollar military budget contains Sec 219 that ties our military intelligence and military industrial base to Israel.
Now it goes to the Senate.
This story is crazy.
It would appear Trump admin officials rigged their nationally televised high school civics contest to keep a young man from a Sikh family out of the finalists.

@GavinNewsom You’re completely missing the point. This was a creative way to celebrate and showcase the diverse backgrounds and cultures that have helped shape America, especially during the country’s 250th anniversary. UFC did a great job thinking outside the box!!
Don’t vote for the person. Vote for the policy. Compare my policies on homelessness to theirs:
PRATT:
-Mandatory drug treatment
-Send home addicts who were bussed in from out of state
-Enforce the law
BASS & RAMAN
-Put addicts in overpriced housing and let them do drugs next to your kids’ school
-Give methheads free pipes
-Make YOU pay for new teeth for said methheads
How is this even a race?
LA has over 40K drug addicts holding Angelenos hostage. All it takes is one to make moms feel too nervous to let their kids just go be kids and explore the quiet streets of their beautiful neighborhood. ENOUGH. We are done being held hostage in our own homes. Vote PRATT today!
Happy Vaisakhi! Today Sikh communities worldwide celebrate the 1699 founding of the Khalsa — a vibrant tradition of equality, selfless service, and courage. Wishing everyone celebrating a day filled with joy and chardi kala.
To all Sikh New Yorkers: Happy Khalsa Sajna Diwas and Vaisakhi!
This joyous holiday commemorates the founding of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh ji, a defining moment that established the Sikh identity and its call to serve humanity selflessly, protect the religious rights of all, and stand against political oppression, tyranny, & discrimination.
May we all carry forward the spirit of Vaisakhi as we work together to build a city rooted in freedom and belonging for all.
Imagine a world where hard work is rewarded, truth and justice prevail in courtrooms, the government doesn’t steal your labor by debasing the currency, bureaucrats aren’t captured by corporations, and our taxes go toward critical infrastructure instead of wars overseas.
Our latest documentary, The Bibi Files, is banned in Israel. Actually.
The reason is simple and draconian. This film exposes years of stories the Netanyahu government wants to keep hidden. Over-the-top corruption allegations, shady backroom deals, the prime minister’s anti-U.S. geopolitical maneuvers, and so much more. The Bibi Files has it all.
Featuring insider testimony and leaked interrogation footage, this new documentary reveals a side of power that regular citizens were never meant to see. As America dives deeper into the Iran War, understanding who is pulling the strings matters more than ever.
For a full exposé on the man at the center of it all, watch The Bibi Files on TCN: https://t.co/TcZMAuObaz
“I just think that would be a disaster, deploying U.S. troops there. It would essentially be giving Iran a bunch of hostages on an island that they could barrage with drones and missiles. You’re putting U.S. servicemembers in a fishbowl where they are stranded on an island and can be targeted. Once we take losses, we fall back into that same cycle where we say we can’t leave, we have to stay and keep fighting. We’ve seen this over and over again in Iraq and Afghanistan. That would be handing Iran a strategic victory.”

KENT SPEAKS: After resigning as director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joe Kent is asked by NEWSMAX's Rob Schmitt about his motivation to do so, U.S. military action in Iran, his take on Israel's involvement, and consequences for the U.S. — plus his curiosities about the assassination of Charlie Kirk. @SchmittNYC
