    Maybe Jeffries hasn’t been as vocal, but he also hasn’t been making huge efforts to support them.

    He’s the Dem House leader and we just passed a budget where Israel gets another 3 billion and we can’t donate to UNRWA till 2025…

    And you’re saying he isn’t doing anything for Israel?

      So you’re willing to let the GOP take over just because he’s imperfect? And then we lose all our rights and give even more to Israel, but you’d be happy because the dems lost?

      And I hate to break it to you, but you will NEVER in your life see a congressional budget that you 100% agree with.

        Hey, you’re cool with foreign governments owning our politicians in the highest parts of our government.

        I’m not.

        Everyone has their own personal line that they can’t rationalize past. Ive hit mine.

        I hope shit gets better before you cross yours. It sucks.

            Says the person who’s life isn’t effected by a foreign government owning our highest elected politicians…

            I guarantee my life is more effected by who is president than most people on Lemmy.

            And not just for the next four years. If shit gets bad before it gets better, whether that’s good or bad is just about timescale. And only thinking one election ahead hasn’t been working out.

            There’s no reason to think it’ll suddenly start happening.

                No, no, once things are North Korea level bad, the people will totally rise up. That’s what stops people from rising up - they aren’t oppressed enough. If we give enough power to the fascists, it’ll DEFINITELY work out this time! “After Hitler, us!”
