US Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) called on the US to cut off aid from Israel amid reports of a new defense deal.
"Trump is pushing through nearly $7 billion in weaponry to Israel. The United States should not continue spending taxpayer dollars to arm Netanyahu's genocidal government. We need health care for all Americans, not weapons for a war criminal"...

Just Bernie being Bernie. Here's me being me. Know a blood libel when you hear it, folks. STFU, Bernie. שעם זיך נישט?
We also shouldn’t waste taxpayer dollars paying this moron to be a U.S. Senator with a big mouth full of communist vomit.

Bernie Sanders (Idiot-Villainous Traitor)
I agree.
No, we should continue to arm Israel. But, we shouldn’t fight Israel’s wars for it.
Bernie is posturing for another house.
We need health care for all Americans,
But Somali learing centers are fine 🙄
Ilhan and Walz probably get a cut of the action.
HAMAS could have piled up all the weapons in Gaza in piles for Israeli collection.
HAMAS could have returned the hostages, held in violation of international law, in a day.
What pisses me off is that if we are paying for things, they sure as hell have no business running spy rings against us.
They should be terrified to do so. The fact that they continued the Epstein Ring, after the Pollard ring got caught say that they have contempt for America.
And then Trump told them not to annex the west bank, and they promptly flipped him the finger and proceeded on that project anyway.
And to hear Trump tell it, they bombed Qatar and attacked the Hamas negotiating team near where we have a base...and did not ask our permission or even notify us.
They are acting like entitled pricks.
If we had an FBI, we would do an updated ABSCAM sting, only this time aimed at them. I understand their position in the world a little, but they are badly in need of a pimp slap attitude adjustment.
Yes, if we didnt back Israel we’d have enough money to fund healthcare for every person on the planet
“””Bernie is posturing for another house.”””
Think of all the illegals he could house with his collection of expensive real estate.
I believe a precise body count will knock that number down considerably, and a forensic analysis of the deaths will show much of that death toll was direcly inflicted by Hamas, or were deaths of Hamas members. Past observation regarding campaigns in Gaza and Jenin is my basis for this belief.
How the Gaza Ministry of Health Fakes Casualty Numbers

Article is from March of ‘24, but I doubt much has changed.
Like many Jews, Bernie Sanders suffers from suicidal empathy.
Self hating.
Ilhan and Walz send their cash to Somali terrorists. I’m not sure what states are designated to support Hamas, probably California and New York.
I think the Democrats must have some way to divvy up the terror groups and allocate them by state.
Keeps the books organized you know!
We shouldn’t give money to anyone , we are broke.
If Israel wants to buy some of our weapons that’s different
Well, not to be pedantic, but we would need to find a suitcase with around 38 Trillion in it before we could even legitimately claim to be “flat broke”!
We are the biggest debtors in all of human history. It’s mind boggling that we are still borrowing all we can to give it away no matter how awesome the cause. Israel, Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, Kenya, Uganda, Taiwan, and everyone else needs to go borrow the money on their own if they need it.
If I was in need, I would never be able to talk a debt ridden family across town into getting a second mortgage and handing the cash to me.
It’s truly insane.
