Surprisingly your local state government isn’t doing a whole lot of overseas bombing or arms shipments.
Perhaps the commenter is referring to Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) who has been a staunch supporter of Israel's "defense" in Gaza.
That truly is one of the saddest things I've seen recently, and one of the biggest betrayals from people I supported.
Still, thank fuck Dr. Oz isn't in office.
Not that they're correct, but Pennsylvania is home to Magnum Research who are the makers of the Desert Eagle. So they definitely have been doing some arms shipments.
Do they still make Desert Eagles for the military? Every person I've ever talked to that's used one in service says it's painfully unwieldy and one of the worst guns they've ever used
Edit: also, according to Wikipedia, the Desert Eagle is manufactured in Pillager, MN
Also according to the same article, only Portugal's GOE and Poland's GROM still use them in service
Oh yeah, sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Fetterman is 100% pro-genocide
You're correct... but... Most of the republican party is also pro-genocide so I fail to see your point?
Okay, so what you're saying is that democrats are no better than Republicans when it comes to supporting genocide?
I'd disagree to an extent. I believe there is a limit to what the Democrats will support while Republicans are trying to bring on the rapture. Especially since that is what daddy- Putin wants so we get distracted from his own genocide on a people that actually need the help.
But, that's what happens when the only other option is religious fanatics openly supporting totalitarianism. The Democrats can get away with anything right now because there is no other option.
