Bernie on the right side of history. As usual.
Imagine if he was selected instead of Hillary.
a far better timeline
As always, for like the past 60 years
Schumer did it too. I think it’s important to see the criticism coming from high-ranking Jewish Americans. It’s kinda tough to call them antisemites.
The fact this man didn’t get a shot at the office is proof that our electoral systems and rep/dem duopoly is failing us.
He got a shot; shot down by the DNC and Wasserman Schultz after HRC paid the DNC’s debt. She took him out the only way to defeat an ethical populist in America: with money.

Haha yeah shot down. Every single state needs RCV or something similar, and DEmocrsts need to support candidates that want meaningful change.
It’s early, but I had to make sure I was reading correctly on this one
Yeah. I mean, some crazy set his office on fire
I am once again asking you to support not committing genocide
Bernie Sanders video message to Netanyahu: https://youtu.be/vzhdPsCgrjU
In before Bernie Sanders joins dissenting voices like Jewish Voice for Peace and Breaking the Silence as condemned by Israel, the USA, Germany, the UK etc. for being the wrong kind of Jew. Some version of misled, self-hating, extremist, unpatriotic etc. Destroying the reputation of dissenters, especially Jewish dissenters, is the only way to keep Netanyahu’s illogical lie that “criticism of his brand of Zionism and resultant Israeli policy is racist against all Jews” alive. The governments involved in Israel’s apartheid and war cimes MUST force that idea on us all - there is no defending the ethics of the situation so their last resort is to repeatedly defame and silence those who protest.
WOOOFTA.
that list just keeps on hitting.
I guess Bernie’s antisemitic now too /s
“Bibi please, you’re making it so hard for me to claim you’re not committing a genocide despite piles of evidence - my support is crumbling!”
Next thing you know, he will send a strongly worded letter.
Fuck off. This is literally the most that’s in his power to do and it’s a hell of a lot more than the president himself is doing.
Bernie can’t stop the weapons shipments. Every time he tries to reel in the genocidal apartheid regime of Netanyahu by supporting or introducing legislation, he’s outvoted and out-influenced by Biden and the rest of the AIPAC toadies.
Using his platform to forcefully explain how detestable Netanyahu’s words and actions are is the most Bernie can do and, again, a hell of a lot more than those with the power to do more are doing.
Actually, the White House came out bashing the protests and calling them antisemitism as well
Of course they did 🤦
He could legislate, that’s his job. Introduce actual legislation to reveal who supports genocide. That would be a good start.
Maybe try actually reading before replying.
He HAS been trying to legislate, but the AIPAC toadies in congress vote him down every time, spurred on by the AIPAC toady in the Oval Office.
You’re basically blaming him for others stopping him from doing his job.
As for revealing who supports genocide, at last vote it was everyone in the Senate except him and 3 others and everyone in the House except the Squad and about a dozen others IIRC.
Also, do you have any links for you last paragraph? I can’t find relevant articles about it.
Wasn’t quite as stark as I remembered it but it was still fucking GRIM at 72 to 11 when he tried to make military aid contingent on what it’s being used for.
Can’t seem to find the House bill I was thinking of
Ok then. Where in this article does it say that he even tried to legislate?
Nowhere, but that’s irrelevant. We know from other articles, TV News segments, C-SPAN, and the Congressional record that he’s been trying to legislate this whole time.
Reality and the documentation thereof doesn’t begin and end within one article from a mediocre British outlet.
What do you want him to do? Pick up a gun, fly over to Israel, make his way to Netanyahu’s office and shoot him in the face?
I mean, I wouldn’t complain…
He could legislate, that’s his job. Introduce actual legislation to reveal who supports genocide. That would be a good start.
That legislation would go absolutely nowhere. It wouldn’t even be put up for a vote. What would be the point?
Better not do anything then. Just strongly spoken words or strongly worded letters… That will probably get things done.
How will your legislation idea get things done?
How will you idea of not doing anything get anything done? Virtue signaling does nothing.
Please answer the question: How will your legislation idea get things done?
