    Why are Israel issues more relevant than domestic issues affecting millions of Americans?

        to add to this;

        The Israel lobby (AIPAC) is funneling Billions of American Tax funds (and European probably as well) to Zionist Conquest Doctrine. These are funds that were/are already being mismanaged through political grifts and corruption, so the fact that it’s going toward a repugnant and quite frankly frivolous war of aggression, that is not only threatening to bankrupt not just America but collapse the entire world economic order, I feel it might be a bit of a solid stance to be in opposition to shitheads that support Israel’s actions right now.

        “Hot take,” I know.

        At his point I say we should just GIVE them Nukes. FFS, Quit trying to invade Persia!!

    Who cares, he votes for the Republican talking points most of the time anyway. Grow a spine already and make it official.

    What he wants is the party to cross the made up line he has drawn in the sand so he can switch affiliation “guilt free” and be able to say “ look they made me do it” when pressed about it.

    Senator John Fetterman of the State of Israel demands recognition.

    The fact senior US statesmen continue to offer loyalty to a different sovereign state makes you a laughingstock.

      He was never with the left. He succeeded where Platner failed: using the desperation for left wing politics to advance right wing causes

        He only ever appeared left because he hired a bunch of young people to run his campaign.

        As soon as he was elected he stopped appearing to be progressive because he either fired his election staff or they quit when they realized who he really was.

        Before he was a senator he was a mayor of a small town in the middle of PA and held a black man at gunpoint because the man was going for a run in the town he was mayor of.

        He’s always been a piece of shit.

          No need to rewrite history to fit the current narrative: as mayor, he was rather left leaning, even though he used questionable tactics. The problem is when you go to Washington, a lot more money is involved. He’s just easy to corrupt.
