Both AOC and Reverend Warnock made Gaza key pieces of their speeches on Monday delivered to 20 million viewers:

If Warnock didn't move you then you aren't human.
Biden too:

Bernie Sanders hit it again tonight:
Wow what a beautiful speech. AOC even mentions Kamala "working tirelessly to bring a ceasefire to Gaza"...
Right after the Biden admin approved $24 Billion in arms shipments to israel.
Can you timestamp the moment in that video where they bring up putting an arms embargo on israel? Lip service just doesn't hit the same after 10 months of Genocide.
The Vice President has no say in what the Administration does or doesn't do. Unless it comes to a 50/50 tie in the Senate, she has no real power at this point.
Gutless shill. "The party's nominee to the office of president (the de facto leader of the party) has zero say in their current policies"
The excuses are becoming as offensive as the genocide itself.
Correct. As Vice President, her job is to step in if Biden can't continue and break ties in the Senate, that's it.
She has made statements on self determination and a two state solution, but she will not run counter to the current administration.

Reading your feckless dodge to my point and playing the theme of The West Wing in crescendo
What's your take on this?
And I'm sure you noticed the trump quote in the article:
"From the start, Harris has worked to tie Israel's hand behind its back, demanding an immediate ceasefire, always demanding ceasefire...which would only give Hamas time to regroup and launch a new October 7 style attack."
Thoughts?
And where are you getting $24 billion? I'm only finding $20 Billion when i search. And that's just mentioning a deal involving F15's that won't arrive until 2026. Love to see your source on that.
Just curious why your entire account is countless articles criticizing democrats for their Palestine stance while applying absolutely no scrutiny to republicans, despite republicans being infinitely more hardline pro-Israel?
I think it's pretty much a given that someone who criticizes the DNC stance on Palestine is also opposed to the GOP stance. Why do they need to list out all the other horrific people when they make a critique? You're engaging in whataboutism here.
If someone critiques the GOP for being blatantly racist, do you similarly ask them why they aren't mentioning the KKK directly? No, it's fucking assumed. Stop being a jackass.
This guy only posts articles calling out democrats, and does not mention republicans at all. So it’s definitely not implied that he supports one over the other. Especially when this specific line is the most popular wedge issue for conservative-aligned interests, despite once again democrats being substantially more progressive on this issue.
And whataboutism? The GOP is one of two parties in a two party system, with the other being democrats. So yes it’s natural that if you mention one party’s stance you would then also mention the other.
Also just lol at immediately responding with name calling. Btw can you name a single Republican that’s advocated for Palestine? Because I see a lot of Ds, but not a single R.
Dems are there to win an election. Not to pledge support or advocate for group of foreigners whom the majority of the country they are running for reelection in do not support.
You didn’t see the same expectations for Palestinian support during the Republican convention because no one on the right gives a shit about them.
Stupid leftists. They need to understand how unpopular the Jews are in this country. We aren't going to beat Hitler by catering to them!
I for one support a gradual sane end to slavery. In 100 years or so. Once we convince the slave owners that they're wrong (but never ever saying so in public)
