Which is not expulsion. Also Democrats supported this let's not forget that.

Silence is complicity. Nobody paid attention in history class it seems.

Censure of a Congressman is the same process as expulsion with a lower vote requirement. One of her Censure votes passed with bipartisan support. It is meant as a warning to them that they can be expelled. There is no guarantee that Tlaib won't be removed or that Bernie Sanders cannot be, either.

For a fucking choice of words. All if this is because slaughter has different connotation to you than genocide? Israel is already being set upon by Houthis, Iran, and Jordan so what's even the point, it's not like the USA is going to invade Israel themselves at this point.

More fence sitting and centrism will fix this. That has always worked. Let's do that again.

When Bernie got sabotaged by the DNC in 2016 and then he still told people to vote for the establishment. That really changed everything.

You know what will definitely fix this? You trying to have left wing politicians expelled from Congress. /s

Fuck off, Israeli Shill.

Ah yes, the left wing party of Genocide denial.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The left wing party that consistently voted down funding to Netanyahu's regime. The left wing party that stands between Israel and actually fulfilling it's genocidal goals. I like how you didn't even deny being an Israeli Shill.

Last week I was a Russian shill. Then a Chinese one. Now an israeli one, that's new. A VPN truly works wonders.

In no way are Bernie and AOC standing between Genocide. They were controlled opposition in 2016, and they're controlled opposition now.
