It was Blinken’s last briefing as Secretary. There will be no other opportunity to call out his enabling of the Gaza genocide.

I agree and I wasn’t arguing that point.

Then maybe understand they weren't expecting the questions to be answered.

I expect answers. I realize we won’t get them, but I expect them all the same.

Biden, Blinkin. Congress.

They made all of us complicit in genocide and I demand answers.

Yes. It’s going to be worse under trump.
