The Democratic Socialists of America, which boasts six U.S. House of Representatives as members, announced a pro-“Palestine” rally in New York City’s Times Square on Sunday, a day after Hamas launched a surprise attack that killed 600 Israelis.

The demonstration was set for 1 p.m. near 42nd Street and Broadway.

“In solidarity with the Palestinian people and their right to resist 75 years of occupation and apartheid,” the New York City chapter of Democratic Socialists of America announced in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

In a series of tweets, the DSA held Israel responsible for the carnage, saying, “Today’s events are a direct result of Israel’s apartheid regime — a regime that receives billions in funding from the United States.”

Most members of the “Squad” belong to the DSA organization. They include Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.; Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.; Cori Bush, D-Mo.; and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn. Reps. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y.; and Greg Casar, D-Texas, are also members.

Rep. Summer Lee, D-Penn., also considered a member of the Squad, whose ranks now number eight, left the DSA’s Pittsburgh chapter after disagreements in 2021. Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., another Squad member, was endorsed by the Boston chapter of the DSA, but doesn’t identify as socialist.

The Hate America Group. HAGS.

When the SHTF they think they will be the last to get eaten. They are sorely mistaken.

Wonder how much of the $6 billion will be kicked back to Biden and the Marxist Dems which includes the Squad for releasing the money.

As best as I can tell from reading the news yesterday, none of these six attended a rally in NYC or elsewhere yesterday. If they did, they should be immediately censored, lose their committee assignments, even expelled from Congress.

And they should be put on notice to support America, else be censored and expelled. We are now at war, whether declared or not. Americans died, are dying, and are held hostage by Islamic Cult Hamas, funded via Biden and Harris giving Iran $6 billion. Traitors one and all.

It’s just the squad, it’s Obama and Biden that laid the ground work for this.

I suspect that Hamas has met its match this time. Biden and Obama wanted Iran to balance the power which is why they want to give them nukes. I can only hope that Israel stands up for the world and doesn’t allow Iran nukes.

This has never been about Palestinians - it’s always been about destroying Israel and that drumbeat has never changed from Hamas, Hezbollah, Isil, and Iran.....it never will change.

These representatives are all in uncompetitive districts, where the letter D guarantees a victory in general and people don’t care about the primaries.

The only way to get rid of them is to make them lose the primaries, but you’d have to register as a Democrat for that.

There are ‘Democrat Socialists of America’ chapters on many college campuses across the country...even here in ‘conservative’ East Tennessee. :-(
