here is Melenchon vowing to take direct concrete steps to stop the genocide, including using the French navy to break the genocidal Israeli blockade of Gaza that is now causing massive flooding and destruction of tents used for shelter as no building materials or alternative housing is permitted to enter, the aim being to make conditions so miserable that it forces Palestinians to leave.
Meanwhile in the US, AOCIA and Bernie Sanders don't even support cutting diplomatic ties, which would end Israel's existence as a genocidal Jewish supremacist apartheid regime overnight as it loses the UN veto and institutional support in bodies like the ICC and ICJ that shield and launder it. They also don't support a real arms embargo and economic sanctions to stop what they pretend to believe is a genocide, let alone taking direct military action to stop it.
The cold dead eyes, the bizarre hand gestures, the halting, unnatural cadence -- and the unbelievable arrogance of a gambler who knows the game is rigged in his favor.
If Hakeem Jeffries is made Speaker - the Dems will lose all of their momentum. What a stupid move.
It’s really underdiscussed how much of American conservatism is based on the premise that only conservatives are allowed to wield power and that the will of the voters is something to be worked around if not outright ignored
You know what I haven’t seen since the GOP got their asses blown out in the election? Them blaming or shaming their base. Seems like that’s something only liberals do.
I think the reason Neera hates Hasan and the I’ve Had It ladies and Ryan Grim and Mehdi Hasan is because 10 years ago she could say shit like this and no one would report on it. Now she has no way to control the narrative and regular people get to see the contempt the elites have for them first hand.
Adam Hamawy is the greatest member of congress and it's not close, doctor who volunteered in war zones around the world, went to Gaza to operate on wounded children
He's even saved more congressmembers lives than anyone else, he saved Tammy Duckworth's life in Iraq
Genuine hero
listen how she says "the entitlement...the entitlement is just wild."
I felt every syllable of that. We know what you mean, sis. Palestinians understand and sympathize.
The other absolutely deranged part of this video is where Hakeem Jeffries says Chuck Schumer is responsible for their party winning, not the people. Americans are going to have to break free from both parties if we are ever going to get change.
The voters are the ones drunk on power???
Not the democrats who are yelling at their constituents and telling us to shut the hell up or they’ll what? Fight us? What the fuck is this @TishJames? Who the hell do you think you are? And once again, what qualifications or skills that Hakeem Jeffries have that any other Black, Hispanic, woman etc dem in the House doesn’t have? Oh? He’s Black? Is he the only Black Democrat in the House?
Israel dropped 2,000-pound bombs, each with a lethal radius of 3.3 football fields, on refugee camps packed with displaced Palestinians, including on the "safe zone" it forced them to flee to.
Blinken and the Biden administration sent at least 14,000 MK-84 2,000-pound bombs to Israel between Oct. 7, 2023 and late June 2024.
The former Secretary of State today said “Israelis didn’t intend to harm Palestinian civilians.”
If this kind of triangulated and incrementalist approach is what defines the historic opportunity earned by Dems, we will be facing down an extraordinarily terrifying future right-wing project. This defeatist view must be forcefully repudiated at all costs.
WATCH: "If @AOC's right @HouseDemocrats worry @RepJeffries is so vindictive he'd punish them with obscure committees for challenging him, that's even more reason to run against him."
@Kanew & @corbintrent agree one big reason nobody is challenging Jeffries is why someone should.
